When I Let You Down
By Darks Light
I brush away a few strands of crimson hair allowing me to watch the clear glass doors slide silently open in front of me as I stand in the rain panting heavily; I'm nearly there. I walk inside, quickly closing my eyes slightly at the unusual onslaught of the fluorescent lights that light up the interior of the building. I open my eyes again agitated still by the brightness of everything as I try and register where I am.
The wind blows in a mist of rain sending chills up my spine and under the stern glare of some lady at a desk I move to the side allowing the doors to slowly close behind me. I collapse against the wall, quickly wrapping my arms around my bare chest, the realisation of how cold it is in here finally hitting me; should have grabbed a jacket or something.
I shake my head, instantly remembering why I ran all the way here in the first place; Kai. I had to see Kai. I need to apologise; need to make sure he's alright. I look around the waiting room of sorts, glaring at those giving me weird looks. So I'm half dressed and soaked through by the rain, Kai's sudden decision to go kill himself didn't leave me much time to get dressed properly, let alone wait around for a cab.
I shake my head and curse myself for being so stubborn, if I had just talked to him or at least listened to him this might never of happened, but then again it mightn't of happened had e stayed with me. No. I cant blame him, not now, especially with the situation we're in at the moment…anyway I would have left also… if I had somewhere to go that is; we all would. I sigh glancing around wondering if this was even the right hospital. Kenny had found me in the middle of the road and apologised about hanging up on me; he thought it more important that he got Kai professional help. This was the hospital he thought he would be taken to.
I walk over to the lady at the front desk and stand there glancing anxiously around the brightly lit room; it's not supposed to be this bright after twelve in the morning.
"How may I hep you?"
I here the lady ask in a please-step-away-from-my-desk-your-dripping-everywhere voice, as she looks up over the rim of her glasses at me.
"I need you to tell me where I can find Kai," I demand of her but she just looks at me.
"Who?" She asks, in an annoying tone of superiority.
"Kai Hiwatari!" I snap at her, I've been given one last chance at maybe seeing Kai alive again and here I am wasting it dealing with this lady. I look around at the various halls and corridors that branch off this room, contemplating whether I'd have more luck finding Kai on my own. I shake my head, this place looked large enough from the outside, who's to know where they'd put someone like Kai besides someone like this lady.
"Sorry we have no record of anyone under that name currently being treated here," she tells me dully.
"What!" Igasp in disbelief, don't tell me I ran all the way to the wrong hospital. The lady just glares at me and dismisses me with a wave of her hand. I go to yell at her but I stop myself, that'll probably only just get me thrown out of here and then I'll never know if I'm at the right place or not.
"Kai Hiwatari… tried to kill himself… was probably only brought here no more then an hour ago," I tell the lady, refusing to move when she tries to dismiss me again.
"Sorry Sir but I have no record of any such person being treated here, now if you wouldn't mind taking a seat I'll call you over as soon as I get some information regarding this Tai person."
"Its Kai!" I yell, but go to move away from the desk as I notice her reaching for the phone.
"Are you referring to the boy just brought in 45 minutes ago?"
I spin around to see a guy in a white coat standing beside the desk; he must of come from one of the corridors.
"If his names Kai, yes," I tell the doctor, relieved that someone who might actually have taken the time to take notice of what's going on around them has appeared.
"We have no known name, as he's incapable at the moment of giving us one."
I hear the doctor explain instantly making me worry about Kai.
"… two toned hair…triangular tattoos on his face…"
"That's the one," the doctor interrupts me as he takes a pen off the lady at the desk.
"What did you say his name was?"
"Kai, Kai Hiwatari," I tell him, slightly relieved that I'm actually at the right place.
"Is he alright?" I ask, my hopes plummeting at the look on the doctor's face.
"You've got to understand that by the time we reached him he had lost a great deal of blood…"
