Saytee

That same dumb nurse that told me to just go to sleep, came back and said there was someone here to take me home. Of course, I assumed it was Jim, and I followed eagerly.

If only in were easier for me to get going, though. I felt dizzy when I stood up, and I could feel my temperature rising. As I passed the mirror in the room, I saw I didn't look good either.

I really was in bad shape, apparently not too bad to go home, though.

As I walked down the hall, I got really really dizzy and I stumbled. The nurse reacted by holding my arm up as I walked. That was uncomfortable, because it felt more like a prison guard hold than a nurse.

I saw Jim ahead, but I couldn't bring myself to smile at him. Because I knew the man who were standing behind him. My owners.

I stopped and gasped in shock. That triggered a cough attack, and I fell to the floor, feeling so weak. The bright lights of the room started blurring together.

I heard Jim yell my name, and he ran to me. He was a blur, too. He picked me up, saying something to my owners.

"She's too sick, you can't take her. Do you see this?" He rebuked. "Jim," I mumbled weakly, gripping the hem of his shirt. He looked down at me, but my vision was too blurry to see his expression. "I love you." I said weakly.

The men mumbled something I couldn't hear, then all of the sudden they grabbed my wrists and started dragging me down the hall. I moaned as I fell on the floor. The only thing I was hearing after that was yelling.
