Once that unfortunate mishap in his hand was sorted out, Will got to work.
Even that day as in the previous days, Meggie, who had the task of sorting the patients, tried to entrust the doctor with the lightest cases. It wasn't that he didn't believe in his abilities, but he simply wasn't fully capable of coping with difficult situations at the time.
Or maybe that was what she believed.
Despite everything, the doctor did not stop for a moment that day, obtaining excellent results in treating patients. It seemed like a quiet day.
He didn't have time to think about his problems.
It was during the breaks that everything came back to the surface, but even in that case he tried to optimize the times by exploiting them to his advantage without being forced to reflect on his problems.
Will, for example, took advantage of his lunch break to find new accommodation, but prices were skyrocketing at the time.
He also had to look for a place to put his things down, waiting to be able to take them to the new house. He had to get out of that place and that had to happen as soon as possible.
Meggie meanwhile continued to rack her brains to find a way to find out what was happening to her friend.
It occurred to her that she could get help from Will's brother Jay.
She had to call him and explain the situation. Maybe with his own blood the doctor would open up more easily or maybe the detective already knew everything.
She was about to dial the number when she noticed that the doctor's brother was standing there in the hospital in front of her.
Seeing him, she worried. She thought something might have happened to Will not seeing him around.
- Hey April why is Jay Halstead here? - she asked her colleague.
- I do not know. Did he call him Will? - she asked, speculating about Saxton.
- He was called by Dr. Choi to take the testimony of his patience that she was a victim of rape I believe. - Megan replied that she had overheard the conversation having taken place at the nurse's desk and not in private.
- But is he alone? - Lockwood asked incredulously. She knew that in the police they moved in pairs.
- No, his colleague is parking. - replied the other.
So Meggie decided to go talk to him. It was better to do it now he would not have such an opportunity anytime soon and then discussing verbally was much better than doing it over the phone.
But he was getting closer when Will arrived.
- Hello brother - Jay greeted him
- Hey bye - the doctor returned the greeting. - what brings you here? -
- A case of rape. - replied the detective.
The doctor was about to take his leave when his brother stopped him.
- Will listen, are we going to Molly's tonight? - churches
The doctor didn't feel like it, but when the other added that he wanted to talk to him about something, he didn't feel like saying no.
- I don't ... Okay, see you tonight.-
Meggie waited for Will to walk away to approach Jay to talk to him, but sadly she couldn't because the job called her to order.
From that moment in the hospital there was a continuous coming and going and we didn't stop for a moment.
When the shift ended, Will changed directly to the hospital. It was 11pm. He didn't want to go home and then between taking the subway, getting ready and getting to the club, it would be too late.
He picked up the phone and called his brother
- Jay Halstead - replied almost immediately.
- Jay can you drop by and get me? - asked the doctor
- Yes, sure Will. Where are you? at home?? - he asked him
- At the hospital, I just finished my shift. replied the red-haired Halstead
- Okay, I'll be there in about ten minutes. Don't you have a car? - he asked him.
- It's at the mechanic - The doctor lied.
They said goodbye and Will put on his coat left the hospital awaiting the arrival of his brother.
He began to walk in front of the entrance to the Ed. It was cold, the air was freezing, but Will found it strangely pleasant.
