BioPunk Part II

Bad Trip

Didn’t read Part I yet? Find it here.

Looking down at Amanda’s body, Ben froze.

Shit. Shit. Shitty shit shit. Whaddo I do? OK, Ben, think. THINK. You’re basically a doctor. Someday, you’re going to be faced with patients. Hopefully they won’t be bleeding out their eyeballs and shit, but still.

Ben paced.

OK, maybe I’m just being paranoid. This is probably Craig’s shitty weed. Yeah, that’s all.

No, Ben, you idiot. She’s bleeding from her fucking eyes. It’s not like she’s having her woman time or something.

He walked back and forth along the length of Amanda’s room. Should I call Mom? He looked at himself in the mirror hanging on the wall. His eyes were half-open and bloodshot. God, no, I look high as a kite. I probably sound high too.

How long had he been staring at himself in the mirror? It seemed like forever. Did his face always look like this? He pushed on his cheek and it felt like someone else’s. Weird. What was he doing here again?

Oh, shit, Amanda.

He turned back to his sister and knelt beside her.

For the loud-mouth spark plug Amanda was, she looked pretty fragile lying there like that. She had fallen on her bed and her yellow-brown hair swam around her head like an aura, a halo. This provided the clarity that Ben needed and he willed himself from that floating cloud back down to earth.

“Come on, Mandy.” Ben stroked her cheek.

Amanda inhaled sharply with a frightened gasp. Ben’s heart stopped then started back up, galloping. First the stairs, now this. He made a silent vow to lay off the weed. After this stash was out. No sense wasting.

“Oh, Jesus, you OK?” Ben asked.

“I will be once you get your stupid face outta my face.”

Ben hadn’t realized they were practically nose to nose.

“Man, get a soda, too. You got some major cotton-mouth going on.”

Well, Mandy was back. He exhaled loudly and slowly into her face.

“BEN, so help me, I will castrate you,” Amanda said, shoving her brother.
