THE FIRST THING HE saw upon arriving back in the waiting room was one of the nurses who had tended to Kelsey after sheâd been brought in. The woman was standing just outside the double doors leading into the back, and she appeared to be looking for something. As soon as she saw Chopper, she hurried over to him. Up close, he could see the deep worry in her face.
âWhereâs Kelsey?â she asked. âIs she with you?â
Chopper bristled. âWhat are you talking about?â She had no accusation in her voice, only genuine confusion, and somehow that only made him more uncomfortable.
The nurse let out a slightly haggard sigh. âI left her alone in the room about an hour ago,â she said. âWhen I got back ... she was gone.â
âGone?â Chopper repeated dumbly. Here was yet another thing that didnât make sense. âShe said she didnât want to see me.â His thoughts started racing before he could get control of them. Was she seeing another guy? Had there always been someone else? Did Kelsey find a way to sneak off and start a brand new life in the space of an hour without telling anyone? It all seemed unlikely, but Chopper didnât know what to believe.
âIâm aware of that,â said the nurse, her voice mildly edged. âThat hardly stops a lot of girls from going back.
âWell, she didnât.â Chopper felt an unfair resentment swell in his chest. It wasnât the nurseâs fault that Kelsey had done a runner on him. She knew nothing about either of them, only that Kelsey was currently her patient. âIs she in trouble for this?â he asked.
The nurse just shrugged. âWeâre not allowed to keep her if she doesnât want to stay. I wish she would have at least let someone look at her one last time, but if she just wanted to get out, then ...â She trailed off.
âWhat condition was she in?â Chopper tried not to imagine Kelsey, distraught and no longer pregnant, wandering the city alone in the dead of night. He doubted she was even dressed properly; the seasons were changing, and now the night wind had a bite.
âGenerally, she was fine.â The nurse looked down at the chart on her clipboard. âI canât tell you the details of her procedure, but it was routine. She is expected to make a full physical recovery.â
âBut she ran.â Chopper went to the window and looked out on the lot. The high, bright lights dotted the asphalt with white pools of illumination. He could barely see into the shadows.
âIâm sorry, sir,â the nurse said softly. She paused, as if she was trying to think of the right words to say. Finding nothing else, she said, âI hope you find her,â before she turned and disappeared into the back to tend to other patients. Chopper didnât look after her. He walked out the entrance into the lot, his eyes searching the dark corners for any sign of her.
âKelsey?â he called hesitantly. âKels, where are you?â
No answer.
