Chapter 1
I must be having an out of bodyexperience. My hands are freezing cold. Everything seems to bemoving in slow motion. I sit at my desk, unable to focus. Mythoughts are foggy and I have to remind myself to breathe. Instinctsets in. I pick up the phone, and dial a number. Iโm not sure whowill answer. I just know itโs the one number that I can remember atthis moment.
โHello,โ says a friendlyvoice.
โHello?โ I ask, not quitesure who Iโm talking to.
โMeg, is that you? Honey,whatโs wrong?โ
โKate?โ
โYes, Meg. Itโs me. Whatโswrong?โ she asks. Her voice is growing more alarmed, but thatโs notreally registering with me right now.
โOh Kate, itโsover.โ
โWhat happened?โ Katewhispers.
โI havenโt fully processedit yet,โ I sigh. โI really need one of our weekends. Can you callthe other girls and see if they can come over later?โ
โOf course I will. Iโllcome over as soon as I can get out of here.โ
โOkay,โ I say and pause,lost in my own thoughts or non-thoughts as they mightbe.
โMeg,โ Kate says gently.โYouโre going to be okay. Everything will be okay.โ
โMaybe,โ Imutter.
โYou need to go home. Gotell your boss that youโre sick and need to leave.โ
โYouโre probably right. Ireally donโt need to be here when this starts to sinkin.โ
After I hang up the phone, I sit therefrozen for what seems to be an eternity but itโs really only aboutfive minutes. I need to pull myself together just long enough toget out of the office. I take a deep breath then grab my stuff andstop at my bossโs office on my way out.
โHey, what's up?โ Samanthaasks while studying some paperwork scattered on herdesk.
โWell,โ I say andpause.
She glances up at me and the smilefades from her face. โAre you sick?โ
โYeah, I think I'm comingdown with something.โ
โThere's nothing urgent,so just go home and get some rest,โ she offers while studying myface.
โThanks,โ I say with aweak smile.
โI hope you feel better,โshe says. โCall me over the weekend if you need Monday offtoo.โ
On my way out of thebuilding, several other people tell me I look awful and ask if I'msick. I nod and hurry past them as they tell me to
