      *

      Huit Brighter

      *

      Three Rivers, California

      Good morning, Mr. Brighter, the nurse said as she studied the notes on the handheld while standing at the end of the bed. The lines curved up at the edges of her lips as she put on the fake smile that she had practiced so many times over the years, and she held the expression like a professional as she read through the patient’s records. I see that we have you down for a trip to the cardiologist today. Doesn’t that sound like fun? she asked though she did not expect a coherent reply of any sort. Mr. Brighter laid in the bed with his head turned toward the morning light in the window, and his eyes lit up at the sound of Nurse Corona’s voice. It took him a good thirty seconds to raise his head and turn it her way, but he managed to slowly turn his pale face toward her and open his mouth as if to say something of significance. Over the next thirty seconds, he slowly rolled out a long, few syllables, but Nurse Corona had already pulled out her stethoscope to take his blood pressure. She neglected to pay any real attention to the words that he worked diligently to form, and as was normally the case, she completed her quick examination before he ever sat forward on the mattress. With a sigh of regret, Huit Brighter watched the round backside of the middle-aged nurse swish back out of the room to be replaced with the short, grumpy nursing assistant who only half-heartedly washed his armpits and crotch before spilling his morning juice all over his bed sheets.

      Well, I see you’ve wet the bed again, Wheaty, Urina jested at the stain left over from the orange juice. Though she knew that she was at fault for the accident, she also knew that no one would be the wiser if she blamed the spill on Huit. The world moved by in a whirlwind for the young fellow, and his reflexes were unequipped for the rigors of dealing with everyday life in a nursing home. He sighed in disappointment to himself as she removed his gown and slid on his blue pajamas for the trip to the doctor’s office. When Urina had dressed him in everything but his shoes, she stripped the bed down and threw the sheets into the laundry basket outside of his room and disappeared around the corner. Huit stood alone in the white room in his socks on the cold floor, and he waited for her to return with his slippers.

      Slippers. It had been three weeks since Huit had last seen the slippers. They had been placed on the inside of the doorway to his room, in plain sight for anyone that strolled by. At midnight on a Tuesday, he had seen the night watchman walk by with the third shift nurse, and their shadows passed out of view as their conversation continued.

      Sugar, are you goin’ to let me come see ya at the laundry room later? I got something that needs cleanin’, baby, he said as he attempted to put his arm around her waist.

      Now you know that ain’t happenin’, Scoot, so you can just keep movin’ round and punchin’ the keys, she replied with a smack of his hand.

      Mmm, mmm. Smack it harder, baby, Scoot teased her, and she turned up her nose at him and walked off in a huff to the nurse’s station. "Shake it like
