Both men shifted in their seats
looking at one another. They obviously didn’t want to tell her, which just made
her more anxious to know. “Jasmine look,” Dr. Kurtsman began. “Kyle is in a very
sensitive state right now. He needs time to process what has happened. I think
it is best if we all just give him a little space.”
“Where is he Dr. Kurtsman? He
should be surrounded by the people that care about him not left alone to feel
abandoned.” She crossed her arms defiantly over her chest. “Please tell me
where he is so I can go and talk to him. He was so good to stay with me and I
want him to now I am here for him, that we all are.”
“Jasmine my dear I think we all
need to get some sleep and we can talk about this more later one. How about
that, hmm?” Before she could reply he stood and grabbed his cane. He limped
from the room without looking back. Craig stayed a moment longer giving her an
apologetic look before following him out into the hall. When Craig opened the
door Jasmine caught a small snippet of conversation. “Yes doctor he is in room
five seventeen. He is still sedated but you are welcome to go check in on him.”
Kyle was
there in the hospital. The realization hit Jasmine like a punch to the stomach.
Why had Craig and Dr. Kurtsman kept that from her? She was a part of the group
and he was a member that was hurting, she had every right to be there to help
support him. Anger rushed through her, followed swiftly by confusion. She felt
like she was being pushed out. She needed them and thought they understood that
but somehow it seemed they had decided to turn their backs on her. Hot tears
stung her eyes as she fought the despair inside. She knew something was going
on and she was determined to find out what it was before they removed her
completely.
