Present Time,
5: 07 PM!
Zeda’s hand shook lightly as she dropped the phone from her hand.
Six years, Nine months, One week, Two days…
She just got a call from the hospital that her husband was found on the roof of the hospital building.
Rena was out to visit Falkur's grave and she was too edgy to think of calling her.
She took one of the cars in the garage and drove to the hospital. She was sure to get some tickets later and maybe spend a night in a cell and she would do all those later…not now, not now!
She barely parked before she raced to the elevator.
It was in use and her eyes immediately went to the stairs.
Taking the stairs two at a time, she raced to the top of the building.
By the time she opened the door to the roof, she was breathing through her eyes, nostrils, and ears.
Some strands of her dark hair were matted to her forehead and to the back of her neck, but she didn't think of the discomfort for a second.
