Aereopagitica: Monday [6-5]

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana made it in to work this morning feeling very guilty about having to miss work on Friday - not that she actually remembered much of Friday, but still. She was still feeling a little shaky, but could actually get around without feeling like she was going to die.

She straightened things up a little, then settled down behind the counter with a book, hoping today would be fairly quiet - and that Mr. Giles had gotten her message and wasn't mad at her.

Not long after Lana got in...

Giles actually made an appearance before noon.

Not long after Lana opened up, Giles came down the stairs, a large mug of tea in his hands.

"Lana? I got your message--well, the message from your friend. Is everything all right?"

When Giles got a good look at her, he turned around and went upstairs. He returned with a second mug of tea, and held it out to Lana.

Lana took the mug gratefully. "Thank you so much, Mr. Giles. I'm feeling much better. I got out of the clinic Saturday night. I'm just still a little shaky, but I'm good."

She bit her lip. "I hope you're not upset that I had to miss work on Friday."

"Of course not, Lana. It's not like you make a regular habit of missing work. Don't worry about it.

"Why were you in the clinic? Were you sick?"

"I don't really remember much of what happened, but one of the kids in my cabin had a nightmare and kind of attacked Bel. He threw me into a doorway, but people think he thought he was getting me out of harm's way. I got knocked out and got a pretty good concussion."

She smiled ruefully, "I'm still a bit sore and achy, but nothing like the way I was over the weekend."
