His hand hurt so much he couldn’t speak.
“Can I speak with you for a moment? Outside?” the female cop said. She grabbed his arm and pulled him outside. As soon as the door closed she let him go.
“For God’s sake, it’s your first day back. You really going to ruin it now? Control yourself” she hissed. “Did you hear what he said? He’s basically telling us that the poor woman had it coming” he snapped.
“I heard him, okay?” she said. Her face got a little softer. “Look, I know it’s hard, given the circumstances, but you have to keep it together”
“I know”
“How’s your hand?”
“I believe it’s broken”
“Hey, you know, that man in there?” she nodded at the door. “Rumor has it he can do all kinds of tricks with hands”
“Isabel? Has anyone ever told you you need to get a boyfriend?”
Isabel shot him an annoyed glance. “That’s not what I mean. Word has it he can heal people”
He widened his eyes. “That’s him? Wow, a healer with a violent character. How ironic” He stepped back in the room and Isobel followed him inside. Cas was still standing against the wall and the male cop walked towards her. “I hear you can fix people. I want you to fix my hand”
Cas touched the hand and it was healed. “I’m sorry about your wife” he said.
The man started struggling again, but Isabel pulled him back. “It was all over the news, Paul”
“And I’m sorry the real culprit was never caught” Cas said.
The door swung open right at the moment Paul wanted to punch Cas again. Paul lowered his arm and turned around.
“Detective Morgan? We need you in hearing room 2”
Paul nodded and walked outside. While the door was open an officer walked by, while he was holding a woman by her arm. Cas looked up the same moment the woman did. Cas frowned, not knowing why she was here and Meg waved and winked as she passed by.
