It turned out my injury wasn’t serious—just a surface wound. After a quick dressing at the hospital, I was cleared to leave.
On the way home, my phone buzzed with messages from Tom.
“Why aren’t you home? Where are you?”
“I already told you, I was working overtime. Did you really have to throw such a tantrum over this?”
“Come back already. I got you a gift.”
