Counting Down the Days
a oneshot for Kati
One more day until your released.
Two more days until you can see your girlfriend
Three more days until your checkup
A week until you start feeling better
A month until the routine sets in
A year until your used to it
A lifetime before finding a cure
Time time time. Counting down the days. What does it come too. Tommorow never comes. Just one more day. Just one more week. Just one more researcher. But im sick of it. There arent any answers. There arent any questions. Theres just silence. Shock. Tears. Hope.
I want to be with her. Kati. My Kati. She must be terrible. All alone back home. Knowing very little. Even less than the rest of us. I can almost see her. Sitting at the side of her bed. Head bend and hands clasped together. Praying. Oh how i wish i could comfort her. Hold her in my arms.
I look down at my bracelet. A seashell from the day we met. NJ + KB.
One bracelet
Two sets of initials
The three things that keep me hanging on
