Infinite Risk
“On awakening, my body felt weird and slightly numb. My fingers tingled, so I flexed them. A glimmer of gold showed through my fingernails, but when I blinked, it was gone. Did I imagine that? Wonder if that’s a side effect of the healing? Or maybe it has to do with Aegis? When I rolled out of bed, I ached with bizarre pain flashes in my joints, places that weren’t even wounded before.
Well, that’s new.
Filing the issue under “things I can’t understand or change,” I added Kian to my bird-acquire...d phone. I didn’t remember anyone else’s number, but this was the only one I needed. According to the time, it was just after four on a Thursday, so I had been gone almost a week. Biting my lip, I tapped out a text.
Sorry, this is Nine. New phone number. Ran into some trouble. Everything OK?
His reply came back immediately. OMG, cant believe ur asking ME that. What happened? R U OK?
I’m basically OK. Told U my life is complicated.
Guess so, he replied. U home now? Can I come over?MoreLess
