QUICK CHECK

Over-weight surrounded by pill vials
a cup of coffee
a plate with crumbled napkin
on the table in front of her
she picks up her blood monitor
prepares to give a qiuck check
she looks for her notebook
can't find it throws her hands up
as if to screem
looks under and around aricles on the table
finally finds it then pricks her finger
no blood is visible
she shakes her hands up and down
then squeezes her finger
blood finally comes out
puts it on a tab and wits for the result
she says "oh no"!
runs to the refrigerator
grabs a banana
cuts it in half
eats it fast
then runs to the monitor
quick checks again
she says "good"
takes a deep breath
sighs shakes her head as if to say no
telephone rings
she say "hi"
pauses "oh nothing"
"fine"
