Kirsten pushed the door to her office open to find Julie sitting at her desk. She tried to ignore the throbbing in her ribs and smiled, "Julie, good morning."
"Morning Kiki. I was just looking through some documents. How are you feeling?"
"Uh fine, it was just the flu but I'm okay now." She answered determinedly. Julie, happy with her reply, nodded and swept out of the room leaving Kirsten alone with her work.
It was almost two and pain in her ribs began to pound. She found a box of painkillers in her desk and emptied the contents. She kept telling herself it would be over soon. Then again she had been saying that for the past two months. How could she have let it get so out of hand? Her head was still spinning from the night before and no matter how she positioned herself her ribs and abdomen still seared with pain. All she wanted to do was curl up and hide from the world but it wasn't an option. She went through her day masking her life. She had come to master the art of hiding her fear, painting on a face to keep the world out.
She felt her stomach lurch every inch closer she came to her home. The gnawing in the pit of her stomach increased as she saw the lights on in the kitchen. She found her boys both at the table reading comic books. "Hey guys, how was school?" she greeted warmly. Seth didn't look up from his comic as he answered.
"The usual. You know water-polo players and their cheerleading groupies. How was work?"
"The usual. You know hyped-up shareholders and their stocks. What you doing?"
"Comic book club." Ryan answered in monotone. She turned to reach for the coffee pot when she heard her husband enter behind her.
"There's my angel." He reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist pulling her forcefully toward him. She winced as he pressed on her abdomen but he only grinned at her expression. He pressed a kiss onto her cheek and proceeded to the sink trying to ignore his wife's grimace.
