Adrien nodded, he knew about her condition and that's all it took. He started the car and we took off. Nia looked at the forest for a while longer, until it was out of view, then she turned and questioned us.
"Where are we going guys?"
"Hospital, lil bit."
She sat up and immediately turned to my direction,eyes widened with concern.
"Are you ok Nue?!"
"Me? I'm perfectly fine…physically anyway. It's my sister who's sick and her condition sounds like it's getting worse. I need to go check on her."
"Which is the one time I'll gladly be a chauffeur for you. Mai's good people." Adrien added with a solemn nod.
Nia's foot started tapping rapidly, a nervous tic, but she stayed silent as we drove on. I could see in the rearview mirror her eyes were drawn to the forest again, up until we hit the inner city where it was no longer in view.
