A nurse was helping Daphne with her lunch when Zoey came in the room. The nurse looked up.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t know…” Zoey сказал(-а) apologizing.
“No, it’s okay” the nurse said. “Maybe, if Ты want, Ты can take over”
“Yeah, sure” Zoey сказал(-а) and she walked to the bed. The nurse got up and offered Zoey his chair.
“Enjoy your meal, Daphne” the nurse said. “When Ты need something, just push the button. I’m staying close”
He walked to the door and left.
Zoey sat down on the chair and looked at Daphne’s plate. “Oooh, chicken, yummy”
Daphne shrugged. “You can have it. I’m not hungry”
“Come on, cheer up” Zoey said. “Look outside, the sun is shining”
Daphne shot her an angry glance. “Yeah, great, the sun is shining and I’m tied onto a hospital bed. How awesome is that?”
Zoey looked down. “You know it’s for your own good” she сказал(-а) sad and uneasy. “Daphne, we really need to talk”
“I didn’t cut myself, Zoey” Daphne snapped hostile.
“You need help, Daphne” Zoey said.
“I didn’t cut myself” Daphne repeated.
“I’m going to call the clinic to reserve a room for you” Zoey continued.
“I didn’t cut myself. I’m not going there. Ты can’t put me in a room and even if Ты did I’ll get out again” Daphne rattled, staring at the ceiling.
“God damn it, D! “ Zoey cursed and jumped out the chair. “I can’t take care of you! I have a daughter to take care of and my husband is this close to claim a divorce. I have a life too, Ты know. Stop being so fucking selfish!”
She threw the plate on the floor and rushed outside.
Daphne looked hungry and sad at the chicken on the floor.

Meg was sitting in front of the mirror in the bathroom of Dorothy’s apartment. She was putting up makeup when the door opened and a woman came in.
“Hi” she сказал(-а) as she walked towards her. “My name’s Heather” she introduced herself and she pulled a chair and sat down. “I hear it’s your first night. How are Ты feeling? Are Ты nervous?”
“No” Meg said. “Maybe, I don’t know”
“You’ve had sex before, right?” Heather checked.
“Yeah, of course” Meg responded.
“Okay” Heather сказал(-а) relieved. “This is not a way to lose your virginity”
“Are Ты trying to give me some kind of pep talk?” Meg asked.
“Yes” Heather admitted. “And to give Ты this” She put something in Meg’s hands. Meg opened her hand and looked at the white pill. “To get Ты through your first night”
“I take it it’s not an aspirin” Meg прокомментировал(-а) sarcastically. She put the pill in her mouth and swallowed.
