(2/4)
“Hey jagoff wake up!” I hear a voice say.
Maybe if I roll over, it’ll go away.
“Think I can’t tell your awake? Take this!” She yells, tossing a tissue box at me that clatters to the floor.
“Come on! If I run out of things to throw, I’ll just crawl over and drag you out myself!” She continues, sounding a little more horse this time.
A metal tray lands at my side, a ceramic plat shatters on the floor, the divider curtain falls over.
“Alright, alright I’m awake.” I say, surrendering to her persistence.
Seija looks pathetic. Barely able to hold herself up on the bed, bags under her eyes, and a scowl like a wolf.
“I need you to take me to the toilet.” She states.
“Ask the Inaba, they’ll…” I begin but looking toward the door I see several of them hiding behind it, mouthing something.
SHE. HAS. A. KNIFE.
Must be that scalpel I left on her counter; in hindsight I should’ve hidden it.
“I’m not trusting those loose Inaba woman to violate me anymore than they already have. There’s a wheelchair by the door.” She points.
I exhale and like an old man, slowly take myself out of bed, shamble over to the folded-up metal contraption by the door, unfold it, and place it beside Seija. She struggles with the sheets trying to pull wiggle and bend their way out of them in her fatigue and tries to reach over to the wheelchair, like a child pointing at something they want.
I let her squirm; she’d probably barked if I tried to help.
“A little help? Your bedside manner sucks worse then the Inaba.” She snarls, putting her arms out toward me.
I slowly bend over and put one arm around her waist and support her legs with the other, then I move my big angry sack to the wheelchair.
“Took you long enough.” She complains, pulling off a blanket from the bed and putting it over her lap.
“Now march.” She commands.
Eientei was busy. Under the Autumn sky there were piles of mulch, beams of lumber, and all manner of nurses and workers walking in different directions. There didn’t seem to be any foremen for the Inaba’s operations or at least, none that I could identify as we traveled through the breezeway, instead the rabbits seemed to organize themselves into units all with their own specialized-looking tools. One could imagine this was the work of Riesen or Eirin and their strange way of doing things, although it looked like the rabbits were just playing with their cliques of friends.
If Seija had any comment on the matter, she didn’t say it out loud. In fact, the oni didn’t say anything until we arrived at the toilet with the directions the Inaba nurse gave me. She only gave me a look that said ‘don’t you dare peep or I’ll kill you’ before she let herself inside.
She took her time. I guess asking for help of bed was one thing and being to manage yourself in the lady’s room was another. Eventually, Seija rolled out, but stopped me as I started back to our room.
“Take the long way around fool.” She commanded.
“Why?” I asked, a little fed up with these orders. Although she did have a knife…
“Because I want to be away from perverted nurse bunnies and stuffy hospital rooms for a bit longer.” She said, shaking her head at me.
Spending those waking hours cooped up in a hospital room did make a little stroll sound good, if only I could enjoy it without an amanojaku.
