It was just over an hour when the nurse returned. She knocked lightly on the door before pushing it open and speaking in to Delilah,”Miss Stevens, it’s time to go down for your CAT scan. Come with me, I’ll take you down to the second floor.” She pushed the door open for Delilah and motioned with a wave for her to come. Behind her out in the hall sat a solid white wheelchair.

     The hallway was lit brightly, and though not heavily crowded, did have others walking it’s length. A pair of nurses passed by, and from the opposite direction came a surgeon, his face shrouded by a surgical mask. Voices could be heard from the far end of the hallway, two male voices.
“Come with me,” repeated the nurse,”we’ll take the elevator down. Have a seat.” She pushed the wheelchair forward.
