"You'd be fine," Salome insists, "just rub some dirt on it." That is how you properly treat bone fragments in the eye, true story. If anyone can sleep off bone fragments in the eye it's her father, that's for goddamn sure.
"I want to sleep," and she will sleep so well on what the doctor gives her, the shot will make her feel good and loose and take her mind off the pain of the arm and then he'll give her a nice prescription because she'll need to manage her pain. And Delilah or her father might have to wash her hair for her, at least for awhile. Yeah, they'll be sleeping good and long for a couple of nights, at least Salome will.
As much as she loves her father's artwork she isn't sure if breaking her hand is worth it. At least not when she has shit to do and not when she broke it in such an embarrassing way. The doctor takes his leave and not long after she gets a visit from the nurse who will give her all that magic medicine and will take her to the x-ray room right down the hallway. The nurse looks tired (maybe not as tired as Richard, but close) but pretty and soft spoken.
"We'll get you fixed up right away," she is making some big promises to Salome. "You won't even have to go far," she helps her with the rest of her coat.
"Why don't you stay here, sir? We'll only be a few minutes, just a couple of pictures and I'll bring your daughter back all safe and sound."
