You Know Where the Labs Are Right

The doctor follows me out of her office.
You know where the labs are, right?
Dang! I had forgotten I was getting labs.
Had she read my mind?
She points to a tiny room.
Sign up in there.
Okay, I say, watching her carefully.
Wondering how many minutes she will still be watching me.

It depends on whether or not she thought you might slip out on her, Caren.

She knows me pretty well
