Suyin opened her eyes when someone nudged at her arm. She looked up, confused. Disoriented. The pain from closing of collar crushing her neck- the one she had witnessed on the baby monkey--- It never came. Or did it?
"Hey, don't space out. Help me." The man's tone rose. She looked down at his hands where he was pressing on Wang Shi's chest. "He's bleeding,"
His lips quivered.
"Pick the phone and call the first dialled number. Ask them to get medics ASAP," her eyes stayed glued to Wang Shi. At his rising chest, to be precise. "ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME, DUMB WOMAN?"
She jumped, shifting her eyes to him and then at Wang Shi. She placed her hands on the sides of his chest.
