I am at my house with my family and Sam and we are talking about the possibility that Anthony will wake up today, in the meantime I stare at my backpack, since tonight I am sleeping in the hospital with Anthony, and I am very happy.

I am leaning against the wall and then a tear comes down, I move away from everyone and go upstairs to my room, I take the last book I read of Kiss Me Like You Love Me and Anna gave it to me, I go down to put it in my backpack and then I say goodbye to everyone

Anastasia: are you going already?
Grace: yes
Sam: I'll be back later
Mom: did you take everything?
Grace: yes mom calm down

We leave the house and I get in Sam's car, he takes me to a different place and I don't understand

Grace: where are we
Sam: I have to show you this thing

We get out of the car and I follow Sam, we go into this place and there are some tools, some tables and an office

Sam: I'll start working soon
Grace: best wishes
Sam: thank you, and I would like you to work with me
Grace: you know I'll have to talk to Joe about this first, right?
Sam: sure
Grace: good

We get back in the car and he takes me to the hospital, only for a moment a lot of guys with motorcycles pass by and they are all prettier than each other

Sam: fucking idiots
Grace: why?  They're going to a rally
Sam: there's always the risk that they could get hurt
Grace: oh well
Sam: anyway the hospital is just up the road, I'm stuck here, is it okay if you just go this bit of road alone?
Grace: okay, then I'll see you tomorrow
Sam: sure

I give him a kiss on the cheek and get out of the car, I go this short way to the hospital and wait for the light to turn green, so the motorcycles can pass.

Two minutes pass and the cars start to go, the motorcycles park nearby and I try not to notice, I go in and go to Anthony's room, I find Anna and say hello

Grace: hi Anna
Anna: Grace, how are you?
Grace: I'm fine, you?
Anna: I'm not complaining, anyway in the end I can't stay, could you just stay with him for the night?
Grace: sure
Anna: thank you
Grace: you're welcome
Anna: see you tomorrow then

He gives me a kiss on the forehead and leaves, I put my things away and then I get comfortable, I talk a bit as if Anthony were listening to me and then a man arrives

Man: are you talking alone?
Grace: I'm talking to him
Man: but it's like you're talking alone
Grace: no, somehow he hears me
Man: you all believe that way, but why?
Grace: who are you
Man: the devil
Grace: and I'm Santa Claus. Look, if you're going to joke with me tonight, you've made a mistake, so leave now or I'll call security
Man: I'm sorry Grace

I'm surprised that he knows my name and he approaches the door

Grace: how do you know my name
Man: I'm a friend of your father's
Grace: but I've never met him
Man: I know
Grace: would you please leave?
Man: or what are you doing to me?

I get up directly and approach him, I try to hit him in every way possible and he dodges them, he has the same speed as me and then he makes me end up against the wall with him in front of me holding my wrists above my head

Man: you have to improve Grace, sooner or later you will find the right one who will take no time to destroy you
Grace: I am not afraid of you
Man: it's a piece of advice

I kick him in the balls and he starts laughing, I push him to the ground with my legs and then I point an iron stick at his head

Grace: it will take no time to kill you
Man: you surprised me Grace, really

He gets up by himself and I continue to point the stick at him and he takes it from my hands, puts it down and then walks away, I remain confused and then I sit down, how does he know about my father, but above all, how does he know my name?!

Anyway, quite a few hours pass and it's midnight, I get ready to sleep and I get closer to Anthony, I lightly touch his face and I see that he slowly opens his eyes, I start to smile and wait for him to look around

Anthony: Grace, what are you doing here
Grace: surprise
Anthony: what happened
Grace: when
Anthony: before, I heard you talking to a man
Grace: is it solved
Anthony: my mother?
Grace: is she at home
Anthony: how long has it been since I came in here
Grace: three months
Anthony: oh god
Grace: anyway now I'm going to tell the doctors that you woke up
Anthony: okay, thanks
