In the city of uncertainty on a shore of the cold Baltic Sea, JJ's company was my anchor as I anxiously monitored the news from outside and, at the same time, tried to not work myself up into a ball of nerves. In half an hour we were joined by Panda, who shared my state of mind, which was visible even under the veneer of exhaustion-born apathy on her face.
We all were waiting for something to happen. Never before had waiting and stayed cooped in a building been so excruciating for me, but what else could I do? I didn't even want to go outside my room, not when the hallways were full of people, just as and even more agitated than me.
