"Thanks. I'll probably just have you do it."

"That's fine. Would you like some pain medication?"

"Nothing too strong. I'd like to go back to work if that's okay."

"Just take it easy and don't go out into the field again today unless it's an absolute necessity."

"Absolute necessity. Got it."

Kim cleaned up the mess and then left. She returned with two heavy strength aspirins and a glass of water and handed them to me. I took the glass and swallowed the pills.

"Thanks. I'll be leaving in a few."

She nodded. "That's fine, but remember take it easy."

"Right."

Kim left the room as I leaned back against the bed. I rested for a few minutes gathering my strength. I then got up to use the restroom, and left medical. Next I went to the locker room to change back into my work clothes. Letting my hair down I brushed it out. I then checked the time and saw that it was almost 2 o'clock. I doubted that Keith had the chance to get lunch yet so I headed to the cafeteria and bought two turkey sandwiches, two bags of Doritios and two Pepsis. As I made my way to his desk, I met Amy in the hallway.

"There you are! How are you feeling?" She hugged me.

"I'm fine. A little sore, but I figured I'd stay and help out."
