He had retired after 30 years of hospital work as a therapist. Sex As he starts to shut off the alarm, he remembers the plate with the bagel, but too late he shut off the alarm…but there’s no plate. He begins kissing her neck oblivious to the scars and marks of her many hospital battles. “Got you covered” was his response. He then takes the small plate and balances it on his digital alarm clock. He looked at her post. “one for me too please”. “So, what prompted this?” he inquires. The few coworkers and even fewer former patients who friended him were often a bright spot in an otherwise dark and dreary day. They had developed a chemistry together, they had a similar, slightly naughty, sense of humor. Was it all a dream? As he starts to shut off the alarm, he remembers the plate with the bagel, but too late he shut off the alarm…but there’s no plate. As he begins to lick and tease another wave overtakes her and she once again shudders and fluids pour forth in abundance, which he happily drinks directly from the fount itself. Going from one patient’s room to another, to another… It all stopped with retirement.
