The taxi drive to the hotel seemed last forever for Iris. She wanted to find out what had happened to Kyro, but the ride just never seemed to end. One minute chased after another, but she just didn't see the hotel.
And her mind worked in overdrive to come up with the worst possibilities. Was Kyro hurt? Detained again? Was Gale the one to write her because Kyro was no longer able to? Was he even at the hotel? Or was she rushing to supposedly stay safe?
By the time she was ready to go mad from all the speculations about what could've happened, the taxi finally stopped. She quickly paid and ran out. Inside, she clicked on the elevator button maybe ten times in a fruitless attempt to make it come faster.
When she reached their floor, she dashed through the corridor and burst through the door of their room. Kyro was sitting on the sofa, but upon seeing her he stood up, and she rammed into his chest, staggering him.
