It had been hours later since the talk with James took place. Zeronis was alone in the private room of the hospital with Arya who didn't even nearly looked healthy with her paling lips and still being under artificial ventilator. The doctor said she was still under observation if there would be no complication after the operation. He was informed that the patient undergone into an arrest amidst the operation and was revived after ten minutes of trying.
Zeronis was in the couch situated far from the bed. His eyes never leaving her face. Having her in the hospital bed was never part of his plan. He knew his goal will gonna have to be forestalled for a while. With what happened recently, he can't bear for anymore pain or worry about the woman whom at first he treated as a pawn to his personal interest. But here he was, helplessly staring at her sleeping face.
When the door opened and James got in, he didn't pay him any attention at all.
