Ch18: Emergency visit to the hospital
“Rex wait up.” Maria called and ran after her friend, before the elevators closed fully, Maria squeezed through quickly and easily but Rex wasn't pleased with it. He wanted to leave the building alone and without questions from anyone or Maria. He knew Maria like the back of his hand, she could be a lot to handle and difficult to avoid when she is determined to get something from anyone. “What happened Rex? Is everything alright?” Maria looked at him worriedly.
“Yes it is.” Rex replied tightly and kept his face straight looking ahead, but Maria wasn’t convinced she knew something was wrong and he wasn’t ready to tell.
“Why are you in a hurry? What’s the rush? Where are you heading to?” She bombarded him with question upon question expecting an answer from him.
“Why are you policing me about” I told you before it’s nothing. There is something I have to sort out that’s all.” He answered and prayed this elevator would just reach the ground floor on time.
