Chapter 12 Getting to know each other
Sezidan hadn't slept well that night. He hadn't slept well for a few nights now.
he knew he was supposed to go to the medical ward before training today.
He wore his B.D.U.s to the med bay. Felina apparently was on duty today.
He walked into the med bay and stepped up to the check in.
The nurse looked up to him. "Name please"
Sez sighed. "Shardeth...Arastor." The nurse scanned the sheet. "Ah here you are. Captain Cartivan will see you." Sez nodded at her and continued inside.
"So Corporal your ready to take off your bandages. Have a seat and ill be right with you." Sez hopped up onto the table. The cold table came through his B.D.U.s.
He felt the fur on his body stand up due to the cold. Felina came back with surgical gloves on her hands. "Corporal im going to need you to remove your vest." Sez slipped his shirt off revealing alot of bandages across his body. Her hands started removing bandages.
When she removed the bandages she noticed hidden by Sez's white chest fur was a black scar much like a blaster shot right over his heart. "Sezidan. can you tell me how this got here it looks like it needs medical attention." Sez quickly turned away from her and threw his shirt back on. "Its nothing Felina." Her hand grabbed his preventing him from leaving. "Please. Tell me"
He looked back to her. "Fine. My father he was...abusive to me and my mother. He loved my brother though. All because he was stronger than i was. When i was only five years old he tried to kill me.
I don't know why my mother stayed with him but she did. Only two months later he killed her. I witnessed it. My father died that night also. But he died because of me. I shot him." Felina's gray eyes started to water. "You wanted to know didn't you?" Felina started to let her tears fall. "She shouted out to the only other nurse. "Hey you can have a ten minute break now leave." The nurse promptly left.
She knew better than to dis-obey orders. "Sezidan. I too lost someone very dear to me. In fact I lost my brother. He died in the war with Andross. Not because of smart or expert enemies but because of carelessness by a fellow soldier." Tears were streaming down her face now. "Thats why back in boot I slapped you. You reminded me of the soldier who let my brother die." Sez didn't know what to say.
"Felina I...im sorry." Felina looked into his eyes again seeming to pierce his soul. She then hugged him. Sez let her wrap her arms around him for a second, then slowly pushed her off. "Felina you cant get close to me." "Why?" "Because...I cant tell you right now but just trust me ok." He then sat up and walked from the room leaving Felina there with tears still coming down her face.
