The Hospital

The hospital is sterile and sprawling, its hallways and patient rooms painted a glaring white. The floor is made of something hard and shining, and the lights are that peculiar kind of flourescent that makes everyone look ill.

The first floor consists of the lobby (painted a sickly green), an emergency room, and several surgery suites, all stocked with cutting-edge, even futuristic, technology and supplies. There is a cafeteria, though the buffet line is empty; the only consumables seem to be stocked in a line of vending machines along one wall. There are no stairs, only elevators, to the upper floors, which all consist of patient rooms: made beds, glazed windows, dying flowers, and the hard plastic orange chairs that are a constant in hospitals.

The whole building smells like antiseptic and death.

Brenda laughed. "One of a few reasons," she agreed. "I think the burns and potential for eye damage rank above the hair loss for most people, though."

"That's why I should've worn eye goggles," Ivy said, seriously. "My teacher's really strict about practicing safe science."

"As they should be," Brenda said, just as seriously. "Next time you mess around with anything flammable or potentially explosive, protect your eyes first. If I knew where to find one, I'd have an ophthalmologist come lecture you."

"My mom's gonna," Ivy said. "And my dad-- he's an architect so he's on construction sites a lot. And my brother 'cause he feels responsible for me sometimes-- weird, huh? Oh, and my teacher. And probably Kiki."

"Not so weird." Brenda swabbed around Ivy's mouth and kept talking so that she wouldn't get a mouthful of disinfectant. "My older sister still won't stop lecturing me if she thinks I've made bad decisions, but it's because she thinks she's still responsible. Sam and Dawn are both convinced they're responsible for Karen and Zach no matter what we tell them--Sam especially." Since all she had left was Ivy's chin, she felt it was safe to ask, "Who's Kiki?"

"Kiki's my science friend," Ivy said, proudly. "We always do our science projects together. Sometimes we blow stuff up but that's not on purpose." Not really, anyway. "But why should Aaron feel responsible for me? We've only been siblings since I was five, it's not like I've always been there."

"You're still his little sister," Brenda said. "He must have really taken to his older brother role. And he must love you, to care so much about you. Besides that, he just doesn't want you to get hurt, probably."
