– Lisa Red –
Drex was asleep, and after checking for like the billionth time that his chest was still moving, I decided to get some fresh air.
Maybe finally give the day's activity a good thinking.
What I didn't expect when I stepped out of the room was Richard sitting on the waiting chair, face buried in his palm.
“Uh, you okay?”
He raised his head so I noticed his flushed cheeks. “Hmm? Oh, Lisa. Hi.”
“What're you doing here by yourself? And where's Rachel?”
“She left already.”
“Really? I thought you two came here together.”
“Yeah… she just had to be somewhere.” It was clear from his tone that he didn't want to talk about it, and that only confused me, but I changed the topic.
“You all must've been worried. Sorry I put you through that much.”
His hands slipped into his pocket.
