[2035 - DAY 4]
[JUSTIN]
"Micaela Ashford, please."
The reception nurse smiles and starts checking up names at her computer, but I've lost my patience because she's very slow. She's not the same nurse who served me this morning.
She's too slow.
"May I ask if you're family or.."
Oh my God. I can't hold it.
"My Dad is the owner of this hospital and you'd better give me her room number or I will.."
And I feel Kia's hand squeezes my arms softly, and suddenly my anger paces down fast. I feel like being showered under a waterfall, freshened and pampered.
I take a deep breath and apologize to the nurse.
"I'm so sorry. Could you please tell me her room number, please?"
"I do apologize, too, Mr. Madden.. Ms. Ashford is in room A57."
"Thank you."
