6. Studying the case
Edward is sitting in his office, staring out the window. What should he do? He's positive he can't continue like this for much longer.
She is all that inhabits his mind.
"Edward… Edward!"
"Yeah, Jasper. I heard you. I still think Miss Webber is not ready for surgery yet."
"Man, what has you so distracted? This woman needs your help."
"Nothing," he denies unconvincingly, but Jasper, being the good friend he is, lets it go. "And I know she needs the surgery, Jasper. But her skin needs to build up some elasticity before I attempt to reconstruct."
Jasper nods and they go back to studying the case silently.
