Thirty Nine – Prepare for War.
(Dream Care hospital)
Johnson narrowed his eyes at the Doctor has he checked on Cherry’s injuries. The doctor flinched on seeing his inert stare.
He hurried out of the ward when he was done.
“What did he say?” Johnson asked Cherry, his phone rang. “Wait, it’s a warrior.” He placed it on his ears. His eyed widened then dimmed.
“What did he say?” Cherry asked back, when he cut the call.
Johnson threw the phone to the ground, smashing it. Cherry pressed her lips together, no longer interested in what the warrior had said.
“The doctor said I’d be fine. He removed pieces of the knife. And I’d be here for a while. I don’t know why I am not healing well.” She shrugged.
Johnson gazed at her worriedly. “You'd be fine.” He looked away from her. “Everything will be fine.” Cherry sensed some doubt in those words.
The door slammed open and the lead warrior appeared, fuming and breathing heavily.
