by Webb, Peggy
"You told her no, of course."
"I'm a marine biologist, not a psychologist." Bill slumped in his chair. "I told her no."
"The child needs therapy, not dolphins."
"That's what I thought, but now I’m not so sure.”Bill gave Paul that squinty-eyed look. "You're a doctor, Paul. Maybe if I let her bring the boy here during feeding times.”
"No. Dammit, Bill. Look at me. I can't even help myself, let alone a dying child and a desperate mother."
Bill looked down at his shoes and counted to ten under his breath. When he looked up Paul could see the pity in his eyes.
He hated that most of all.
