Lauriel and Alexei

Finland finally regained consciousness from the anesthetic and found Jean sitting beside her bed, looking exhausted.

"Hey... you look so tired... Why don't you go back to the hotel to rest?" Finland asked, touching Jean's hand.

"Eh... you are awake... I wanted to be here to make sure that you are fine. The doctor said that the operation was successful. Now we just need to wait."

"Oh... thank goodness..."

"Are you hungry?" Jean asked.

"No... I'm just sleepy."

"Maybe the effects of the drug have not completely disappeared." said Jean. "You just rest."

"I have to contact Rory. I want to meet him and Aleksis..." Finland took her phone from the side table and contacted Lauriel.

After two rings her call was picked up.

"Hi, how was the surgery?" Lauriel asked.
