SIDE STORY: DECISION (2)

For fifteen full minutes, Lilac struggled with her nausea and during that time, Jedrek stayed by her side and patiently tried to make her feel better.

"We should go to the hospital," Jedrek said in a firmer tone, while Lilac kept shaking her head to refuse his suggestion though her face looked even paler. This sight frustrated him greatly.

Lilac felt another wave of sickness and she finally gave up…

"Okay…" she complied, nodding her head weakly.

And with that permission, Jedrek didn't waste any more time to pick her up and drape a warm jacket on her shoulders, after that he carried her to the parking lot, where he put her down carefully and secured her with a seatbelt.

"Do you feel comfortable this way?" Jedrek asked, worriness could clearly be heard in his voice, and only after he saw Lilac mumble something as a 'yes', he walked around the car and sat down behind the wheel.
