    Summary

    The smoke burned down her throat.

    For a moment, she simply stared at the ceiling, cigarette hanging loosely between her fingers and the bottle resting against her thigh.

    “I’m fine.”

    Her voice sounded awful.

    She closed her eyes.

    “This is fine.”

    She needed to remind herself.

    Because as long as she was a doctor, she was the one who asked everyone else if they were all right. She checked their wounds. She watched their blood pressure. She stitched them back together. She told frightened children that they were going to be okay, even when she already knew they weren't.

    Nobody ever returned the favor.
    Nobody asked her.

    Because if the doctor wasn't put together, who was?
