It had already been five days since Cassidy went missing.
By this point, Adrian is starting to lose his mind.
He would not eat properly, and he would barely get some sleep. Though his physical body is at rest, his mind is far from that. He could not calm down at all. There was not a time that he did not think about his wife. It was her he could ever think about - her well-being, safety, whereabouts, and everything.
Every second, minute and hour of the day she was not there was like hell to him. He would dream about her at night - her smile, laughter, and even her touches. Only then does he feel at ease. He feels perfectly fine when he can see her right beside him. But then, that only tortures him as well. That is because he will only get to wake up from such a beautiful dream to face the nightmarish reality in the end.
Up until the last day of his stay at the hospital, that nightmare continues - his beloved is still nowhere to be found.
