In the Waiting Room
An eighteen month old wearing puppy pajamas is running back and forth
in the doctor’s clinic. the waiting room. He has pink cheeks and a loud giggle.
He is being chased up and down, back and forth, by his three year old
sister.
She has golden curly hair, and big brown eyes, and she is wearing pink and
lavender kitty pajamas. Some of the kitties have blue glasses, others have
rhinestones which I think might make these pajamas less than comfortable.
They are the giggle bunnies in the waiting room. The mother tries to get
them to stop, and a nurse orders them about, but they are three and eighteen month. No one is bothering them.
Their mother has told me that this is their second time here this week.
They have temperatures of 102 and 105.
They are so happy, giggling, and laughing, tearing around like this is a party
room.
What do I have to do to get what they have?
