It's reigning blue sirenes outside of the hospital entrance.
Blue always has an intruiging effect on atmospheres. Sometimes it creates an peacefull feel but now it's alarming.
As it should..
The paramedics rushed Lisa in.
This wasn't their typical situation. It wasn't a matter of life and death but when it comes to altercations with the law enforcement, no errors should be made.
This particular department made a lot of mistakes back in the day so everything should go recording to protocol.
& Allthough the test results came out "fine", her passing out more than once, was defenitely not a good sign.
You could hear Sean in the background encouraging Lisa not to give up. But was he really? Was he encouraging himself not to give in?
He watches how she get rushed into one of the available rooms. Her arms slips of the stretcher and for a slight moment it's like she's waving him goodbye.
All he can do for her, is stand there and watch her go. Clueless and in destitute. He had a future planned with this woman. One night could not dictate their lives, forever.
This could not be the memory his birthday celebration's hold on to.
" I don't want her to die", Sean silently cries.
In the midst of the chaos, the hall is filled with police officers, nurses running around and her.. Teshana.
Teshana looks worned out but her lips are still bloody red and that gown she's wearing demands some type of attention!
This put together outfit does not belong in the hospital and her hand cuffs most defenitely weren't planned accessories.
She tries to make eyecontact with Sean. A litle bit of hope is left in the midst of all of this.
Her eye contact gets no response. It makes the situation worse as it triggers anger in Sean.
"Why is she standing here", Sean yells. Can't you see, the dried up blood on her coat is from one of us. Why am I in handcuffs still. She's the one who needs to go to jail. SOMETHING!!
The officer demands Sean to stay quiet and tries to de-escalate the situation.
The head officer Mike walks towards Sean..
"My man, it must've been a long night for you. I overheard somebody say it was your birthday yesterday? Must've been one hell of party!"
You could smell the sarcasm in the room & Sean is not amused, one bit.
"I'm sorry, that wasn't funny."
Listen, this is what we're going to do. We'll ask you a few questions and eventually you can go home okay"?
------------
Did somebody read him his rights? Mike yells through the hallway.
------------
Now Sean, I'm begging you. Don't let my intuition make a fool outta me. I'm going to uncuff you.
Can I trust you, not to be acting out around here?
Sean complies but has one demand.
"Someone need to find out if Lisa is okay. That's all that matters to me.."
As Mike's colleague uncuffs Sean.
All three -Mike, his colleague and Sean- follow a nurse to a room where Sean can get checked and interregated at the same time.

It has been a long night. I'm not sure if we've cordially met.
What is your name son.
"My name is Sean Lonswick"
Please tell me what happend last night, Mike asks while his colleague citates..
I had been in the house all day.
Suddenly, I got this phone call from downstairs. Teshana told me that someone left me a message.
Mike looks suprised.
Wait, so Teshana works in your appartment complex?
"Yess, she does", Mike answers with conviction.
She's the hostess of the building.
