Kenneth really wanted to tell Dorothy the harsh truth that Everett was gone, so Dorothy could finally let go and stop waiting for a miracle.
He knew the pain would be temporary and she would eventually come to terms with reality.
But as he looked into her anxious eyes with worries, his resolve faltered.
“He’s not dead,” Kenneth lied, his voice barely above a whisper. “The Lopez family got him to City Hospital in time. That’s all I know.”
“But the knife... I saw it, Kenneth! I saw Heather plunge it right into his heart!” Dorothy’s fear was palpable. What if Everett had survived the ride but not the aftermath? What about the life-saving efforts?
“Dorothy! When are you going to start worrying about yourself?”
Kenneth’s words were cut off as Dorothy struggled to rise. The sudden movement pulled at her wounds, quickly staining the bandages with fresh blood. Yet she seemed numb to the pain, cursing her weakened body for not easy motion.
“I need to get to City Hospital, Kenneth. Please, take me there!”
“I won’t let you!” It was the first time Kenneth had ever raised his voice to her.
The frustration had been building inside him for so long that he seemed to implode if he didn’t let it out.
When he shouted, Dorothy paused, but then persisted in searching for her shoes, determined to leave.
Helplessly, she attempted to stand, only to collapse forward.
Her freshly stitched wounds tore open, with the IV needle in her arm dislodging. Pain shot through her from all directions, a sheen of sweat instantly coating her forehead.
“Dorothy!” Kenneth rushed to her side.
