"Welcome, miss. What can I help you with?"
The medical assistant at the front desk was new and had yet to learn what they were doing. They did not recognize Amane and continued to smile gently at her.
Amane would have found the worker's naiveness cute at other times. But she was too irritated to pay attention to what the worker was doing.
All Amane wanted to do was return to Sakura and treat her. Then, she could start thinking about what happened with Charlie and how to help her. There were ways to open the rift, but a time limit existed for a human to stay alive.
Time was of the essence here, and Amane had nothing to waste.
"I am here for Sakura Tsurugi. I am her cousin and the primary caretaker. I know the room number already, so you do not need to record it for me."
Amane assured the front-desk worker. But the front desk worker's smile faded once she looked at Amane.
