Time Is Of Essence

"Can you now take something?" Jason asked Kathleen who had resumed her gaze on the theater light.

"And don't tell me you don't want to, otherwise I will call Mr and Mrs Wyatt right away," he threatened.

Kathleen shot Jason an embittered look.

"Do you need to do this?"

"I have no choice, Sis. You forced me yourself."

Jason signaled to Johnson who handed over the snacks and coffee he had gotten from the café not too far from the hospital.

After being threatened by her brother, Kathleen had no choice but to reluctantly accept the snack and coffee.

The last thing she wanted was for her father and mother to come rushing back and start fusing over her like a baby.

She brought the cup to her mouth and slowly took a sip after receiving a warning look from Jason.

About forty five minutes later, Kathleen's head jerked up from her brother's shoulder when the theater door suddenly opened and Dr Sullivan came out.
