You Don’t Understand

When the darkness finally faded, I could make out the image of a figure standing in a… kitchen.

Blinking rapidly to clear my vision, I stared at the woman making some bread in front of a wooden countertop. "Li Dai Lu?" I asked cautiously as the man who brought me here stepped forward and gave Li Dai Lu a kiss on the forehead.

"Healer?" she replied, looking as stunned as I was. Turning to the man holding her, she rubbed her forehead, not caring that she was getting flour on it. "Tell me that you didn't kidnap the Healer."

The man shrugged as a second man walked into the kitchen. "What is the point of having a doctor on call if we don't actually call her when we have concerns."

I must not have heard him right because I really don't remember being on call.
