Watching From Your Window

The hospital lights are so fucking blinding. Who the fucks idea was it to put the whitest and brightest light imaginable in a hospital. If the people in it weren't already dying in some way these lights would sure as hell kill them. Just to double down on their already awful circumstance.

Just then the door to my hospital room opens. Expecting it to be my mom I open my eyes ready to greet her. But to my surprise it wasn't my mother but the town sheriff, Officer Gromen.

"Hello officer" I say to him politely.
"Hello Ms.Spinner how are you feeling" he said to me while looking at me up and down.

Considering the deep cuts that needed stitches along with the deep purple bruises on my face and my sleep deprived sunken eyes and all the bandages wrapped around my body. I would imagine I didn't look like Ms.USA. But of course I knew he wasn't just asking to be polite. He was here to do his job.

"Like I could run a marathon" I say sarcastically.
He chuckles at this.
"You look like you've seen better days Ms.Spinner"
"You know exactly how I ended up in this hospital bed officer, she nearly killed me for him, she's crazy"
