I went up to the receptionist desk and got signed in.

" What's your name?"

" Valley Curtis."

" Oh here you are. The doctor will be with you in about 10 minutes."

" Thanks. Can I go see my friend."

" Name?"

" Steve Randle."

" He's in room 9."

We found the room and walked right in.

" Hey Steve."

" Hi guys."

Me and Two-Bit grabbed a chair and sat down.

" So how are you doing?"

" I'm better than I was last night but I might loose it if I stay in here any longer."

" Yeah I don't blame ya."

" Val did you get those stitches from the rumble?"

" No, I got them a while back, getting them out today."

At that moment the doctor came in.

" Come with me Valley."

" See you later Steve."

" Don't give him to much trouble."

" I'll try."

I sat down on one of the beds watching the doctor take out my stitches. It hurt but I didn't show it.

" Well Valley, you did a good job cleaning your cut out just like that person who taped up your friend's ribs."

" That was me."

He looked surprised but smiled.

" Well keep being good at that. Bye Valley."

"Bye." I said as I walked out the door.

I went out into the waiting room, found Two-Bit, and left.
