The wait to get into the room wasn't too long, and a nice nurse had helped her to the x-ray.
She set her leg onto a table, a machine scanned her multiple times, though it didn't take a genius to tell you her ankle was broken. It also didn't take a genius to know that she wasn't in a good headspace.
But it's not like she really wanted to talk to anyone anyways. She was led into a different room, resembling a normal doctors office.
"Well, we're gonna have to put you in a cast, it's got to go a little ways up your leg." The nurse explained, pulling a few rolls of material out of a cabinet.
"Luckily, you don't need surgery." She set the rolls down onto a table next to her
"Lucky me." Marinette sighed, earning a soft chuckle from the woman.
She was a soft spoken lady, with gold- brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. Her skin was fairly smooth, apart from the faint smile lines around her mouth and little crows feet next to her eyes.
"So how long am I going to need a cast?" Marinette asked, feeling the woman begin to wrap up her leg.
It was painful, but it wasn't much worse than the pain Marinette was already in.
So she didn't complain.
"Usually about 6 weeks, depending on how your bones grow and if you're gentle on it. You'll have to use crutches at first, but eventually we can put you in a boot." She smiled, wrapping the fabric around her ankle and up her leg.
Marinette sighed, running a hand through her hair.
"Something wrong?" the woman stopped, looking up to see Marinette's
distressed expression.
"Lets just say....my job doesn't really allow me to work broken." She chuckled, biting her tongue before she said too much.
"You must have to walk a lot huh?" The woman moved her hands to work again.
"Yeah." Marinette turned away, choosing to look around the room at various posters and tools along the walls.
"Don't worry, no one can blame you for this." The woman finished the under layers of the cast.
"If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" She looked up, smoothing out the material on Marinettes leg.
"I'm really clumsy, I took a pretty bad fall." she chose to leave out the little details of swinging around rooftops with a yoyo.
"Make sure you're careful next time."
"Of course."
The nurse stood up, going over to her cabinet once again.
"What color would you like?" she asked, holding up a few different rolls of casting material.
"Do you have red?" Marinette looked beside the woman, trying to catch a glimpse of the other colors.
"Yes." She turned around and grabbed the red, closing the cabinet and walking back over to Marinette.
"Thank you." Marinette sat up a bit more, turning her entire leg for a better angle, biting her lip as the throbbing pain shot through her.
"No problem, just doing my job." She was at work again, wrapping Marinettes leg in a red cast.
She worked in silence, before she was finally finished.
She left the room, and Marinette turned to have her feet hanging off of the edge of the table.
Red was probably not a good idea.
