Chapter 129

Erik's POV 

I turned and went back into my room and threw my suitcase off the bed and onto the floor. That action felt so good that I continued to grab anything I could and throw it around the room. I threw the blankets. I threw the pillows. Then, I grabbed the weird, orb-shaped lamp that didn't have a cord and threw that. I had expected it to break, but instead, it bounced off the ground and made a loud thud.

"Everything all right in here?" the nurse came and asked as she stood in the doorway.

"What the hell is that made of?"

"It's just a plastic, battery-powered lamp. It's not breakable."

"Well, that's shitty."

She laughed and came in to help me pick up the mess I had made. It was nice of her, so I didn't yell at her or continue my little tirade. I started to feel pretty shitty for throwing a tantrum at all. This was exactly the person I didn't want to be.

"What's your name?" I asked as we started to make the bed.

"Kaitlin."
