Tiara wanted to jolt up as she heard the hospital room door open at this untimely hour. It was right after her lunch and the nurses had promised to leave her alone.
She had been thinking about the game she had just seen a glimpse of. She hated the experience in the end but she thought of how she was able to move around and the glorious feeling of levelling up…it intoxicated her. She wanted more of it, not just 15 minutes.
She had seen the map of that game and there was so much more to explore and the final quest was still to be completed…her young mind danced with excitement at the thought. "I need to ask Mitchell how to play that game again. There's no use sitting like this in the real world anyway, unable to move. At least in there, I could breathe."
A middle aged looking man entered the room with a shining blue suitcase in his hand. Following him was an equally tall boy in a dark hoodie. He had his hands tucked into his pockets and didn't meet Tiara's eyes.
