Before you read
Carla si poreže ruku. Umýva doma riad. Ide na kliniku. Dostane číslo: štyridsaťsedem.
Na obrazovke je tridsaťjeden. Miestnosť je plná. Muž číta časopis. Otec drží dieťa. Tínedžer sa pozerá do telefónu.
Čísla sa menia pomaly: tridsaťdva, tridsaťtri, tridsaťšesť. Nejdú po poradí. Carla čaká.
Po jednej hodine je na obrazovke štyridsaťsedem. Carla ide dnu. Lekár sa pozrie na jej ruku. "Je to malé," hovorí. "Čistite to dvakrát denne."
Carla odchádza. Miestnosť je skoro prázdna. Tínedžer je preč. Dieťa je hore.
That's the story.
