Alice got away from Shane as she tries to explain to the nurse that she was married to Carmen in Canada. She didn’t need to hear all of that. She took a seat in the rows of seating in the hallway, where’s there are couple of people waiting as well. She looked back at Shane, getting frustrated trying to explain to the bigot nurse.

She saw another nurse coming out and handling the situation better. Alice got up and went to the desk again. She took hold oh Shane’s hand making Shane look at her. Alice smiled politely at Shane, making Shane calm a little.

“Yeah… I was married to her… we split up…” Shane said to the new nurse, who is nodding and checking up information on the computer.

“Alright, I’m sorry about before Ms. McCutcheon…” The nurse started. “Uhm… the patient Carmen Morales in surgery right now in the ER and your… daughter… Lily McCutcheon is in surgery as well… I can only tell you that, because the doctors hasn’t put up any new information… the ER rooms are on level three…” The nurse stated.

“Thank you…” Shane said kindly. Both of them went into the lift and headed to level three. Shane’s heart was beating so fast that she feels she might faint soon. Her face is pale with bags under her red eyes. In the lift she realized her shirt was covered with blood. She held out her hands and looked at the dried up blood. She choked on her tears; she started to walk back as her body hits the back wall of the lift.

Alice looked at Shane’s body slowly sliding down onto the lift’s ground. She pressed the red ‘stop’ button in the lift. The lift stopped immediately. Alice bent down near Shane and grabbed both of her hands.

“Hey… look at me Shane. I’m sure the doctors are doing everything they can right now alright…” Alice said looking at her girlfriend, who is still sobbing. “Shane honey, listen to me… we’ll make through this… whatever that’s going to happen… I’m gonna be there for you okay…” Shane looked at Alice. She took hold on Alice neck and hugged her with all her might. “I don’t know what to do without her Alice… I love her so fucking much…” Shane stated. First Alice wasn’t sure who she was talking about. “She’s… she’s, she’s my baby girl you know… she’s my daughter…” Shane looked around the tiny space, crying and trying to catch her breath.
