From the janitorial staff all the way to the top brass, the whole team seemed to have great respect for one another. “I think that’s preaching to the choir.” For the past month, Robert had been placed on duty at the Landstuhl Regional Military Hospital in Germany.
With a heavy internal sigh, he gave up on the guy’s name and remembered that the nurse was always around the hospital too. Why couldn’t he just try to be friendlier? The idea seemed almost impossible to achieve. Yet another thing his fathers would be disappointed in him for. Robert had given up on any hope of absolution and had let this funky, fucked-up mood consume his entire life. If he’d learned anything from the past eight or so months, self-beratement didn’t help adjust his rotten attitude. This was just another reminder of how he hadn’t even tried to fit in socially with the hospital staff.
If he hadn’t become such a self-absorbed ass and been the better person he was raised to be, he’d have made it a point to remember the man’s name. He’d met the guy weeks ago and had seen him around the hospital dozens of times since. Robert Adams glanced from reading the chart in his hand to the tall blond nurse who had come to a stop beside him.
