A young man, fierce and formidable, stood guard at the door of the hospital room. Nurses bringing in medicine for Amanda Smith were too afraid to enter, clutching their phones to call Evan Willow inside the room.
As Evan Willow received the message and came to the door, he saw a nurse tremblingly pushing a cart nearby and Samuel Johnson leaning against the wall, toying with a cigarette.
He glanced up, apologised to the nurse with a smile, gestured for her to come in, and then slightly nodded to Samuel Johnson, "Shall we, talk?"
Samuel Johnson turned his head and glanced at him, irked by the other's amiable smile, and turned away, "What's there to talk about?"
Evan Willow maintained his composure and smiled, "I, on the other hand, feel you have quite a bit to say to me."
Samuel Johnson indeed had a lot to say to this guy, but the words he wanted to say would only be effective if addressed to Amanda Smith.
