Lucia was dressed in a black suit with black stiletto heels. The heel made her feel tall and the black color of the suit complimented her pale skin. A make-shift board room was provided for their needs in the hospital due to grandpa James' influence.
A few minutes later…
"Are you ready, huh?" Hugh asked Lucia as she straightened the invisible lines on her suit. She was nervous and her palms were a bit sweaty. She gave a slight nod to Hugh's question and Hugh planted a soft kiss on her cheek. Immediately, Lucia felt her nervousness fly away.
"Are you okay now?" Hugh asked again. Lucia smiled and said with a wink, "You should do that often." Inwardly, she was giddy that Hugh noticed how nervous she was. He had kissed her in an effort to calm her down. They heard a knock on the hospital ward's door.
