/"You should come to the hospital immediately so we can prepare you for the surgery. Don't eat or drink anything./" Doctor Zarin instructed Nyx over the phone. /"You should be here within four hours./"
Nyx looked at the clock hanging on the wall in front of her. She should make it, right? If she leaves right now...
/"I will be there./" She assured her doctor before hanging up the phone.
/"Who was that?/" Elinor asked her the moment she put the phone down.
The two of them were sitting in the dining room eating lunch when Sam Zarin called Nyx. The house felt too empty with only the two of them in it. Randy was away on a business trip, Carly was still in school, and as for Owen, the young man was studying abroad. Nyx hadn’t seen him for a few months now.
