The mist of the early morning covered the skyscrapers topping charcoal clouds in the sky as the cacophony of traffic flooded in my ears.
"Kade? We're here."
I didn't hesitate before grabbing Jackie's hand in mine.
I was going to need all the help I could get for this one.
"It'll be alright. I'll be in the waiting room if you need me."
One look into her clouded eyes and I realized just how emotional she was, too.
She'd been in my life long enough to feel like Bree was a daughter of her own.
It might've been completely backwards, but she was the first one I called after getting the news, not my parents. I had always just assumed they'd have gotten their own call as well, but that wasn't the case.
They'd had no idea.
When the news broke, they were more angry they weren't notified rather than the fact their only daughter had just tried to off herself.
With my mother's cushy lifestyle with my half brother and her new husband, I didn't even think she'd have the capacity for empathy anymore; not after how we'd all found out the truth about Rich.
That was another sibling for another day, though.
I took in a deep breath before leaving the comfortable confines of the car and trekked up the steps to the five star treatment center.
The receptionist did a double take as I took in the clinical yet somehow cozy feel to the place and soaked up the ornate decorations with plants lining almost every shelf while the hospital doors swung open against white walls with buzzers going off every few minutes.
"Kade Hendrix, here to see Brianna Foster."
"Yes, we were told you were coming today. Someone is coming up right now to escort you to see Miss Foster. Would you like anything while you wait? Water, coffee? We have wafers too if—"
"No thank you, I'm fine."
Her eyes darted all over my body almost like she couldn't believe I was standing in front of her.
"I'm sorry, but would you mind—"
"Mr. Hendrix, I'm Doctor Cameron, your sister's main physician here. Please follow me."
He turned after shaking my hand and I followed the doctor in his mid-forties, his salt and pepper hair perfectly styled as I took a few steps away from the receptionist before flashing her a polite smile and walked straight into the belly of the beast: my sister's mental hospital.
It had been hard gaining visitation considering the fact that it was a Sunday, but they were under constant care and supervision, so it wasn't like they weren't staffed.
