Cas was sitting on the hospital mesa and the doctor was doing some basic examinations. Checking his eyes, checking his ears, checking his throat, taking his blood pressure, listening to his heart.
“Seems all very normal, Mr. Novak” Dr. Spencer said. “So, you’re not feeling very well” he continued and he was going to say more, when Cas interrupted him.
“Do you think I’d be here if I were feeling good?” he snapped demeaning.
“Cas!” Meg hissed between her teeth. “Don’t be such a jerk”
“We’re not supposed to be here” Cas objected hostile. “Anna gave us the specific order not to go to the hospital”
“You don’t have to do what she says. You can’t let her boss you around like that” Meg fired back.
“I don’t have a choice. She’s my superior” Cas defended himself.
“Not anymore she isn’t. Now she’s just your big sis and you know what they say about little brothers. They’re supposed to be a pain in the ass” Meg ended the discussion. She looked up at Dr. Spencer. “Do whatever it is you need to do”
A couple of minutos later a nurse came into the room, with a wheelchair.
“Céline, please take Mr. Novak for a few scans” Dr. Spencer ordered. Céline drove the wheelchair to Cas and she took his arm to help him, but Cas freed himself violently. “I don’t need your help”
With a face to the ground he sat in the wheelchair and he looked at Meg as if she was sending him to the gallows. Céline drove the wheelchair out of the room and Dr. Spencer and Meg followed.
“Maybe you can wait here or get something to eat” Dr. Spencer suggested.
“I don’t think I can eat right now” Meg replied.
Dr. Spencer nodded in understanding. “Then wait here”
“Where are you taking me?” they heard Cas protest. “Meg! Help me! They’re taking me somewhere. Meg, where are you? You can’t leave me. You can’t let these freaks take me with them”
“Don’t worry too much, Miss. I’m sure that whatever he has, we can cure it” Dr. Spencer added as Meg stared at the struggling Cas.

De eerste roman voor volwassenen van Harry Potter-schrijfster J.K. Rowling wordt in Groot-Brittannië voor de televisie verfilmd. "A Casual Vacancy" ("Een goede raad") wordt vermoedelijk in 2014 uitgezonden, zo deelde de BBC maandag mee. Ze heeft steeds gemeend dat het boek het best voor televisie geschikt was, indien het ooit zou verfilmd worden, verklaarde Rowling.
Het sociaalkritische boek over een stadje in Engeland werd in september uitgegeven en zorgde meteen voor opzien, omdat het het eerste boek van Rowling was in vijf jaar. Met de reeks van zeven opeenvolgende boeken over tovenaarsleerling Harry Potter was de schrijfster wereldberoemd geworden. De Potter-boeken werden ook succesvol verfilmd. (Belga / KAV)
