The Waiting Room

The smell of antiseptic and disinfectant is the best part of the day.

The drab floors and flourescent lighting are making my eyes hurt.

Pain fills my entire body as I shift around the waiting room chair.

Thirsty, throat sore, mouth dry as the Sahara.

Ah.... finally the sound of my last name echoing down the hall.
