All the motivation and energy that Sheila had built up disappeared.
Was it really worth asking for help...?
Asking someone like Benjamin for help was...
Did she really have no other option?
Thinking of Blortus, Sheila saw him as a nice person, but often as someone rigid in daily life.
And on the other hand... yeah.
There was no one else.
Except for Matt, whom she had barely met yesterday, she had no one else in this country to ask for help.
"Dr. Treit, are you okay?"
Brought back to reality by a nurse's question, Sheila nodded while forcing a smile.
"Yeah... I just want to make a call..."
"Okay, we'll leave you alone so you can feel more comfortable."
And before Sheila could say it wasn't necessary, the nurses quickly stepped out, having made sure everything was in order.
Now she was alone... in silence.
