Children's Hospital
You're sitting in the chair at the reception. The air has that weird hospital smell that never seems to leave.

There's a clock on the wall doing a 'tic... tic... tic...' Annoying, as if the weather had more time today just to bother you. Her mother has not yet returned. And for the first time, it seems that there is not much to do but wait.
