The hospital air smelled of antiseptic and desperation. Mike, in a borrowed white gown with an evasive gaze, adjusted his worn jacket. Beside him, Nancy pretended to be medical staff, but her eyes gave away the panic. They had managed to deceive Karen, but now the silence was deafening. He bit his injured lip, remembering the blow.

Mike didn't know how to confront the person who nearly killed him, especially when his mother watched them with blind trust. The scene was a portrait of betrayal and urgent need, where love and fear mixed in Mike's gaze.
