It wasn't until they were entering the doors that the relative chaos inside was visible. People were sitting in chairs, sitting on the ground, leaning against each other. One woman was lying on the floor, head in the lap of someone else holding an IV drip connected to her arm.
Controlled chaos, considering everyone appeared to be in various stages of taken care of, but chaos none the less.
"I think they've taken care of the people who were already here..." she said, stepping forward to push the door in and enter the urgent care center proper. A few turned to look her way, some eyes wide, others resigned. None did more than sigh in relief when she proved to be a little girl accompanied by an adult man. Just two more people: not two more robots in this insane little world of the colony.
