Chapter 139

“Thank you for coming down at this later hour.”

“You’re welcome, Dem. I think we both knew we hadn’t found everything. The fact that it has opened up again is quite concerning thenight.

tteld him that I would use surgical glue to close it but that I would also use the shots to numb the area,”

She shakes her head as she continues gathering supplies.

“When did it happen?”

“Saturday, before the rest of the beating. He said his head was slammed into the counter.”

“So it’s not a direct result of the beating but it’s just as old as everything else we’ve found, I’m going to take a combination approach. I’m going to do at least one layer of stitches that will dissolve. I may add more layers depending on the depth and close with the glue.”

I roll a chair over to the computer and sit down as I log in.

“We need to get an X–ray.”

“That’s what I’m looking at now Ange. I’m not immediately seeing anything but I’d like you to verify behind me. Radiology wasn’t my best subject.”

“I’ll take a look before sending it to Dr. Fawn, the radiologist at General. He’s the one that found the two rib fractures.”

I move onto the folder we started on Cole and open up the file with the physical form all packs that join the warrior program are given. I scroll over to the printer icon and click on it starting the printing process before finding the sexual behavior interview file in a separate folder and doing the same to it. I stop by the cabinet and grab another bag filled with the same five bottles I have already dumped into the tub as well as the soap and cloth I’m going to use on him. I grab the papers off the printer and secure them onto a clipboard with a pen attached to it.

“I’ll link you to let you know that he’s ready.”

Angela nods as I lightly knock on the bathroom door. I give him a moment to respond before slowly opening the door. My heart drops as I see the young man pacing slowly beside the tub, his distress is evident in his posture and face.

“Cole.” I speak gently as I cross the room, putting the bag of supplies down on the counter.

“Have you tried getting into the water yet?”

He stops and slowly turns to face me.

“No sir. I’m sorry. I’ve been trying. I just…. I just.”

He sighs as he runs his hand through his hair.

“It’s okay Cole. It seems that telling you it’s a medicated bath has psyched you out a little. You’ve only been here two days and a lot has happened. I realize this is going to be awkward but I’m going to help you. Take your robe off, you can hang it on the door.”
