"It's worse than normal, that much I know. But, I did only have like two bites of food and half a glass of orange juice for breakfast. I know, I did it to myself, but the appetite just wasn't there." As she spoke, Elizabeth held the door open for Nancy and motioned for her to step inside. She then remembered her angry outburst, and as soon as the nurse had walked through the door, she rushed to pick up the notebook and crayon from the otherwise spotless floor. 

"With what little belongings we have, I consider [i]this[/i] a mess," Elizabeth joked before putting both items away in her drawer. She then proceeded to sit on the bed, nodding to Nancy to do the same on the chair opposite to her if she so wished. "Oh, and by the way, I appreciate you going out of your way to look after me. Anyone else in your position would have probably told me to suck it up."
