As they loaded Kayleigh Hutschins, age 36, onto the stretcher, it waited. Rick was a new EMT. He just got his certs about 3 weeks ago. He was told of the 'shadows' in classes. But seeing one was still a bit un-nerving. Daniel, the more veteran EMT was marking the time, but knew there was no rush to get to the hospital. 'Yeah, they freaked me out at first too' Daniel said into the ambulance's sterile white lights, he looked back at the freshie. 'They go all the way to the hospital, right behind us, yeah?' Rick wondered if the stories were true. 'Yeah, as long as her credit card still works, it'll be right on our ass' 'What happens then? When we get to the back door?' 'Follow us right in, thank God John Muir's not a blind road and has an exit. UCSF just has a loading dock, damn things block us in all the time and we have to call SFPD to get em moved out of the way.' 'How long do they stay for?' 'In the parking lot? They'll stay until her card is cancelled or the family does something. Homelanders like y'all can't pinch two nickels, so the family'll likely never contact the card company cus they'll hound them for years about her debts.' Rick looked at her glowing green fingernails, perfectly manicured. 'After 30 days John Muir or the other hospitals just calls the car company and gets them to move. All at once. It's a laugh riot.' As they loaded her into the bay, the shadow inched forward the exact same amount.

  Aiden was bouncing around with Peppa Pig singing songs. The grass was green and he was in the iPad too! So much fun Aiden and Peppa! Wee! But then Aiden was awake. The softness under the nylon of his car seat smelled good, like rain on Daddy's driveway. All Aiden could see was darkness and the blue and orange glow of the car. It was night now. They weren't at Daddy's anymore, but he wasn't at Mommy's house yet either. There were noises outside, a man's voice, deep. Not Daddy's. Aiden was confused. Aiden was scared The front door opened. The man got in, well, he more fell in. Aiden was very scared. Where is Mommy? Where is anyone? The man smelled strange too, like Uncle Greg. That bread-like smell when Uncle Greg drank Parent's Soda. Aiden was so scared. He just wanted to be back with his iPad dancing with Peppa! Aiden started to scream and cry! Mommy! Peppa! 'Aw fuck, therhss a kidh n thsss fuckher!' The man tried to say, but his mouth sounded like it was full of drool or sand. He smelled really bad now. Aiden kept screaming for Mommy. Hot tears and snot. The man turned around, his eyes were red and poofy. His hair was stringy and he was sweating a lot. He looked at Aiden but his eyes kept drifting and he kept tilting his head. 'Ssssshhhhhhh. sssalll right kiddao. Weell get ya basck hhhome. S'll call the Pawlice nn get sha basck to yer Mawmy' The man slurred a lot and got back out of the car. The man slumped down on the side of the car and took out his phone, Aiden could see over the side of his carseat. He was so scared. Where was Mommy? Who is this man? After a long time of crying for Mommy flashing lights came by the car. The blue and red colors were so bright. The man stood up and went over to the lights, but fell down a lot. A police lady came to the car and opened it after talking to the man. 'You ok, sugar? How are you feeling.' Aiden looked at her, this wasn't Mommy. 'It's ok now sugar, your Mommy is coming real quick, OK? Were you on the way from your Daddy's to Mommy's?' Aiden nodded and gripped the belts of his carseat tighter.
