[For George]

[knowthyexits]

It's becoming hard to ignore.

At first, Sarah had blamed the weight loss on a change in her lifestyle -- the stress of being away from John. After months passed, after going back and seeing him again, there's no way to ignore that she's still losing more weight than healthy and she isn't even doing anything differently.

Even though her appointment with George isn't for months, she goes in early with the itch under her skin, needing to know. She raps her knuckles lightly on the door during his shift and clears her throat, terrified to the point that she's hyperaware of her every move, but stubborn enough not to run.

"George," she greets, quietly. "I need your help."

George's life always seemed to become mildly interesting whenever Sarah was involved. It was the reason for his immediate attention to her when she walked in — thankfully terminator-less this time — but when she spoke, he knew.

"Of course," he said, looking around the clinic to make sure their privacy was ensured, knowing how Sarah felt about it. "Do you want to go into one of the rooms, talk there?"
