“Have you been vomiting?”
“Yes.”
“How much?”
“All day yesterday.”
“Hm.”
The doctor looks thoughtful,
writes something down in his little book,
then looks at me again.
“Turn your head.”

I obey,
looking away as he nears closer and studies my face intently.
I catch my reflection in the mirror and cringe.
Ugly.

“Well it doesn’t seem to be too bad,”
the doctor pulls away and scribbles something down,
“Hand this slip to the lady at the reception,
she’ll bring you the medication,
it has simple instructions,
take it once a day,
and they should be gone in a few.”

I nod,
taking the piece of paper from the doctor’s hands.

He smiles and shakes his head,
“Don’t be worried,
it’s not bad.”

I give him a smile and stand,
avoid his outstretched hand and awkwardly leave.

Her eyes skim over it.
“Petechiae…
prescription for Evie Chandler,
you’re Evie right?”
She looks up at me.

I nod.
Of course I am.
Who else?
I come here almost every week.
They should know me by now.

She looks at me,
twists her lips,
then disappears down into the shelves full of medication.
A few minutes later she reappears,
carrying a little box.
“Put some on every night.”
she says,
and hands it over.

I nod,
murmur a small ‘thanks’,
turn and leave,
ignoring the few stars from nearby customers as they goggle at my face.
I hear some murmur to their partners,
children to parents,
parents to children.
Yeah.
So what.
I have a skin condition happening on my face,
no need to stare.
No need at all.
Outside,
my luck worsens.
Some kids from my school are hanging about near the staircase.
As I pass them,
someone snorts.

“Hey bitch,
what’s with the shit on your face?”
what’s with the shit on your face?”
I don’t say anything,
Don’t look their way,
But whoever controls this earth is terrible.
At the bottom of the stairs,
I feel it all come up.
I sharply turn to the nearest bush and bend over,
hand resting on the wall to stop myself from falling over,
the other on my stomach,
as if I can grab the terrible feeling and rip it out of me.
I almost wish I could.
There isn’t much that can come up this time,
mostly bile and such,
but still I’m a mess and feel disgusting.
I wipe my mouth under the laughter from upstairs.
I wish I could just sink into the ground,
sink in and never come back up.
Wish I could just vanish from the face of this earth.
