Pier

Jul 13, 2011 13:27

Norman dangles his feet over the edge of the pier and stares down into the water. He wonders how wise it is to have a facility like this so close to a place people can drown themselves.

"How're you feeling, Norman?"

"Good."

"Ready to finally get out of here?"

"If you say I am."

His counselor takes a seat next to him. "You can stay longer. No one's forcing you to leave."

Norman looks at her. "Can I stay forever?"

"Would you really want to?"

"No."

"Then let's see about getting you checked out."

Sighing, Norman gets to his feet.
