Lisa shook her head. "I tried to run, but it's not so easy when the floor's wet and you're wearing high heels. I apologized to her, I told her I didn't want any trouble, I tried to run; none of it helped. The one thing I didn't do was retaliate. I really don't think there was anything I could have done to stop it; she was just determined to beat someone up."
Lisa reached over to the stand next to the bed and picked up a packet. "Leto gave me this to use as a cold pack." The packet appeared to be a bag made of cloth, about a foot long, half a foot wide, and half an inch thick. She pulled the contents halfway out, which consisted of a clear plastic bag filled with a blue gelatinous substance. "I'm supposed to put this in the freezer until it gets cold, then hold it against my eye. It's warmed up now, though; I guess it needs to go back into the freezer for a while."
She looked at Sean with concern. "Don't you dare blame yourself for this. I know you try, but you can't be everywhere at once. And you can't just take care of us; you've got to take care of yourself too. Just how long had you gone without sleep before yesterday?"
