Gareth Nelson (ML)
*stare at bottle of pills*
Flashback Royale Restaurant
Simon
"You can't fool me, Gareth. Be good and open up."
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*teeth grits*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*Take eyes off Simon and glance down at the round golden pill in her hand*
Simon
"You don't need water to drink it, all you have to do is swallow."
Gareth didn't know what it was, but he found himself obediently open his mouth. His eyes locked with pairs of blues.
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*feels her hand scrape his lips*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*swallow*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*place a hand around his throat*
Simon
*smile*
"Works like a charm, does it?"
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*shock but doesn't show it*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
(Not even the painkillers I carry around work that fast.)
*hold Simon's gaze*
Simon
"You only need to take a pill once a week, in your case every Wednesday."
As far as Gareth knows, every bottle of pills prescribed to him in the past years, not only takes longer to take effect. He would always take a pill every two to three hours every day, due to the constant pain.
Simon
*hand over the bottle of pills*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*reaches to take it, but she retreats her hand*
Thinking Simon needs something in exchange for the pills, Gareth asks...
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"What is it that you want? Just name it, and it will be yours."
Taken aback by Simon's chuckles, Gareth couldn't look away.
Simon
"That's not it. I don't need anything from you, not yet anyway. You're now my client you come first."
Simon
*look at Gareth seriously.*
"I only forget to let you know, you are to take those pills for three months without missing your due day."
Simon
"It's critical you let me know if you feel any pain before your due day, when you take them."
*Hand him the pills.*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*eyes still on the pills*
Not only die he felt well rested last night. He also noticed for the first time ever since the car accident. He found himself comfortable in his own skin.
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*lips tips up*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
(How ironic, finally got out of this hellish leash of pain, only to fall into a new leash.)
Gareth Nelson (ML)
(And the one holding my lash is a woman.)
