TRY TO KILL

A voice spoke up while Lexine and Ceeret were still hugging, "Is the family of Adrianna Woods present?"

Lexine pulled her head out of Ceeret's shoulder and looked up. There was a man standing a few meters away holding a clipboard in his hand.

He was wearing a blue shirt and pants and on his feet was a pair of hospital shoes. Lexine raised her head, untangling herself from Ceeret. "I'm here."

The man walked forward, "the doctor will see you now."

A few meters behind him was another man in a doctor's lab coat. There was a stethoscope around his neck and a hairnet covering his hair. His eyes were covered by a pair of black-rimmed glasses that had thick lenses. Lexine and Ceeret walked up to the man that the nurse had pointed to.
