Chapter 0302 “I… we cto see how things were going.” Walking in, the nurse shut the door and resumed changing the bandages. Cassie’s front was covered but her back was fully exposed. This was the first tI saw just how bruised and frail her b*dy was. “Thank you for coming.” Cassie winced from whatever the nurse applied. “How are you feeling?” I asked. I was vaguely aware of the lack of emotion in my voice. My heart was only calm because Colt kept shoving relaxing emotions into me. “Much better. The doctor hason a 800 calorie diet. Next week, we will move up to 1200 calories. He said a little at a tso my stomach can handle it. I can tell I am improving each day.” The nurse finished wrapping sspots before pulling down her night gown. Helping her turn and lay down, she covered Cassie up with the blankets and went to clean up. The room was smaller but still bigger and more comfortable than the hospital room. The bed on off to the right with a small seating areal on the left. The bathroom was next to the walk-in closet. The bed was
still a king size so there was plenty of room for them to sleep comfortably. “I would like to get you so clothes and other items. If you want to make a list of what you want or need, I can get them. The bathroom is filled with men and women’s things that are your’s to use.” The whole thing felt awkward. I wasn’t sure what to say and they kept just looking at me. “The nurse toldI should be able to start walking around and maybe eat in the cafeteria this week.” Cassie smiled at me. 1/5 “That would be good improvement.” agreed. “Any exercise you get will be good. Laying in bed all day isn’t good but you shouldn’t over do it either. The physical wounds are about healed. Now it is about getting your b*dy healthy again.” The nurse gave her a pointed look before taking her gloves off and washing her hands in the bathroom.
“Zac is starting training tomorrow so I figured I would try to walk to the porch maybe and get sfresh air.” Cassie smiled at Zac. “I think that will be a fine idea.” Zac didn’t move but gave her a small smile. “Well, we are off to an event. I just wanted to drop by and make sure you were situated.” I said, ready to leave. “I will make a list tonight of my sizes anything else I may need. It shouldn’t be much.” Cassie said. “The sgoes for you, Zac. Anything you need and you will need more clothes. Write down your sizes as well.” I said firmly. I swear he was wearing the sclothes he was wearing a week ago. He didn’t answer but nodded at me. I’m sure it was his pride getting the way. “Thank you for coming by. Maybe I will get to see you thi week while I am walking around.” Cassie smiled at me. “Maybe.” I said and turned to leave. Colt opened the door forbefore I ran into it. I didn’t stop walking when I heard the door close. “Penny.” Colt had to take a few steps to catchbefore grabbing my arm. My b*dy instantly turned and folded into his. “It’s okay.” “I don’t know why I can’t handle this.” I small s ob broke through me. Not enough to makebreak down but just enough to get it out. “You are handling this great.” Colt whispered. His arms were wrapped ntally, I know they didn’t abandon me.” “For your entire life you believed they did. You can’t take back 19 years worth of anguish in two weeks.” “Kristen would.” “You’re not Kristen.” Colt pulledback. “Penny, Kristen isn’t as put together as you think. She was emotionally torn down and An n hitting her everyday….she was far from put together. Outwardly she appeared to not be bothered but she was a mess inside. Trust me. You can’t compare apples to oranges.”
