Nurse Jennings

"Sir, are you alright?"

A voice is heard by the door. It seems to have come from the little intercom device installed on the right side.

"I suppose so," you say, your voice a bit raspy.

The door slides open, like in those sci-fi pictures, and a young woman in a light green nurse gown enters the room. She is holding a tray with a cooked, juicy T-bone steak and a glass of water. You smell how delicious the steak is, your stomach growling for food. You even unconsciously lick your scaly lips. You also notice another peculiar scent, a nice one that warms you. You realize you are making the nurse uneasy, the nurse halting and looking at you nervously.

"Sorry," you apologize, "I don't mean to scare you."

"It's quite all right," she says, now less edgy. "I get that alot from the other patients."

She sets down the tray on the simple light wooden table close to the bed. She turns to you and smiles.

"You can call me Nurse Jennings."
