Chapter 98:
Something's Not Right

You knew Tammie before.
Who is she, Fiona?
The doctor's voice is soft,
kind.
Like an angel's.
But the way she says
Tammie
is threatening.
She knows.
She doesn't need to ask.
What answer

She tilts her head.
Smiles wider.
Turns back to her keyboard
and continues to type.
The sterile office
is filled with the clicking
of keys.
She's my best friend,
I whisper.
The typing stops for a moment.
Because she's
holding down
the backspace button.
She nods at me
and continues typing.
We met in secondary school.
She was my only friend.
I watch the doctor's face.

her hands
folded,
on the table in front of her.
