*answers from her nest of blankets and painkillers* Yep?

"Is Ms King in please?" His voice is quiet, and in the background can be heard the sounds of the busy ER.

The accent is unmistakable and, even though he can't see her, Saxsice unconsciously sits a little straighter. "U-Um, this is me..I mean, she...I mean...hi."

"Ms King, hi, this is Dr. Kovac, I was just calling to see how you were doing."

Sitting up even straighter and wincing slightly at the pain this caused her ribs, Saxsice smoothed her hair - again, pointlessly - and said, "Dr. Kovac. Hi. Um, I'm doin' all right..."

"You're sure? Did you follow up with your family doctor?"

[identity profile] multixcolored.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
She hesitated. "Not...exactly....

"What do you mean by, not exactly?" His confusion clearly resonated in his words.

She sighed softly. "Don't have a family doctor."

"Ah, you should have said something, I would have set you up with a clinic visit. Can you come back to the ER so I can see how you're doing?" His concern now comes across in his voice as he realizes how much time has passed without a follow-up.

She sighed softly. "I didn't want to...inconvenience you." She hesitated, wincing slightly and rubbing her ribs. "Um...yeah, probably. I'll...have to get a babysitter, but..."

"It's not an inconvenience." He hesitates a moment.

"I tell you what, if it would be easier, I could come by and see you, then, if it looks like there is a problem I'll set up for you to come back for another x-ray. You won't have to worry about a baby-sitter then. Would that be better?"

She paused, then exhaled in relief. "That...would be so wonderful, Lu- Dr. Kovac. Really."
