The life of two

Wheelchair.

I sat at the waiting room.

A nursery came in.

"Miss George."

"That's me."

I said and stood up.

"Come with me."

She brought me to a white room with four beds.

Daniel was in one of them.

He saw me.

"Kacey... You're here!"

"Of course I am. How, how are you?"

"I'm fine."

A girl I didn't recognise came in.

"Actually he isn't "fine".

He's going to roll around in a wheelchair.

"Leila.... Kacey, this is my sis."

"Hi, Kacey."

The girl smiled at me.

"So... You're the girl that made my baby brother lose his spine.

Pleasure."

A doctor came in.

"Actually he didn't "lose" his spine."

"What?!

Me and Leila said together.

"He's just recovering now.

Hopefully he'll be fine enough to go home tonight."

"Pfft, he's going to roll out."

"Leila... I'm not a cripple."

"Yet...

"So, Kacey?

What do you have that snapped my brother?"

"Leila, leave for a while.

I want to talk with Kacey."

"Sorry, Kacey. Daniel."

"It's fine.."

After Leila left, I went closer to Daniel.

"I'm so sorry, Daniel.

Greg's an idiot."

"He is."

I sat on the bed.

"Kacey..."

"What?"

"I'd do this over and over again."

I started crying.

"You won't have to."

"Huh?"

"I won't let it happen."

He sat up on the bed and kissed me.

"I-I love you..."

"What?!"

I looked at him.

"Oh, shit. I forgot that, that is a big word."

"It is, but... I love you too."
