"Take a look in the mirror and what do you see?
Do you see it clearer, or are you deceived
In what you believe?"

Charles was furiously flying on the highways, exceeding the speed limit much more than he should.
I completely understand that he is worried about Alexandra, but I really don't want to end up in hospital for different reason than just a visit. I know he knows what he is doing, but I'm still scared when we are passing those cars so fast. But everytime I want to tell him to slow down a little bit I change my mind. He is looking really upset and I don't want to make the things worse. Let's pray we won't crash or cops won't catch us.

Luckily nothing of this happened and we peacefully parked in front of hospital. Charles quickly rushed from the car into a building. I didn't try to stop him, because I know it would be useless.

"Hello, can you tell me where I can find Alexandrina Deschamps?" Charles asked older receptionist sitting at the desk.

"Are you a family member?" she gave him a stern look. Oops, this is not good. I was about to say that I'm her sister or something like that, but Charles was faster.

"I'm her brother. Listen, me and my girlfriend," he grabbed my hand, "we drove all the way from the other side of Bahrain to see if she is ok." He was trying to be as convincing as he could that old bat still doesn't buy it.

"We risked our lifes to get here as soon as possible. She means a world to us and we are really worried. Please let us see her." I started begging her, "she and Charles are my only family." It seems that my plan worked because her face expression softened.

"It's room 79." We thanked her and went to the elevator, still holding hands to look like a couple.

"That was some really good acting skills you showed downstairs." he whispered to me when we were squashed with lot of other people in the elevator. It's really uncomfortable because we have no private space. Did I already mention I have slight claustrophobia?

"I did what I have to. I know how important is she to you," I smiled a little. In that moment another people came into already full elevator so I was pushed against the wall, mine and Charles' body glued together. It's getting hot here and it's not just because of the temperature.

"Can you guys move a little bit please?" One nurse standing in front of the doors shouted. There is no fricking space! Everybody moved to the back so Charles was pushed even closer to me. That close that there was no nanometres between us left. I could even feel his...thing against me. I briefly looked at him and saw how embarrassed he is. God save us please.
