Jessi De Jesus

Opportunity

“You know we shouldn’t be doing this, right? It’s only going to make everything worse.” Still I take another hit from the pipe before getting out of the car. As we walk back in the hospital, nurses have been performing CPR for the past forty-five minutes. Passing through the waiting area, “I will be out here?” I ask in a stating way. With the response, “You might as well come back, you’re pretty much family now.”
