Day 50: Waiting Room/Lobby 2 (4th Shift)
Visitors? The hell was that supposed to mean?
Heat's curiosity allowed him to be led from the courtyard (and his riveting conversation with that woman) back inside to the front of the building. This wasn't one of the usual activity rooms, but something that resembled a sort of lounge where the only 'activity' seemed to involve sitting around. The demon was instantly annoyed and asking to be taken somewhere else. He'd done enough talking for the day. He just wanted to wait out the rest of the day in peace.
Someone was coming to see him, the nurse said, but there weren't any members of his tribe remaining in the Institute. Was it possible they'd brought back Argilla?
Their continued use of that other name wasn't unusual, but that and an offhand mention of someone 'from home' had a familiar face flashing in his mind's eye. He went quiet. Satisfied that he was going to behave himself, the nurse left him to sit alone in the uncomfortable chair, his eyes trained on the doorway.
