She returned to the present.

And here I am, she thought, as the sound of heels pounded lightly down the deserted, quiet hallway.

Dear God, what's Damon's condition? Why is it so quiet? Where is everyone? 

It is a bit strange that there is no busy medical staff, no noise of devices and no noise of patients. Then she remembered that this was the most expensive hospital in which ordinary mortals had no place. Security door. One, then another, a corner, a counter.

“Good morning,” Hilda was greeted by a nurse, an incredibly handsome blonde, a head taller than her, who seemed to have stepped off the catwalk. “How can I help you?Hilda introduced herself and said who of interest was to her.

“Yeah, tall gentleman from 33 - 33,” said the nurse and not looking at the computer. “And what are you to him?” 

“I’m his girl,” Hilda answered as if from a cannon, blushing slightly as the nurse watched her judgmentally. 

Was there jealousy, women's vanity or ... She smiled slightly and said: “Follow me.” 

“And you better prepare, the patient is not in the best condition…” she said as she passed through another security barrier.

 God, how beautiful she is. Look at the way she moves. Blouse, skirt, hat, everything fits her perfectly. Beautiful sculpted legs, a mild scent of perfume that tickles the nerves, so why must a beautiful woman, as this nurse, be right here. I felt a bit of jealousy that I quickly suppressed. I'm here because of my darling and I'm not interested in anything else.

Hilda was little surprised why there are so many barriers, shouldn't there be only corridors and rooms without obstacles here, as well as on the lower floors. And who opens the door and moves the panels of clear glass or plastic or whatever, when she hasn't seen the cameras anywhere. She wanted to ask the nurse when she stopped.

She almost ran into her from behind. Two huge types of gloomy figures stood in front of rooms 33-33, which later turned out to be a kind of apartment fully equipped for all types of interventions.

“Who are you, miss?” said the younger bushman. 

The nurse entered behind Hilda. “The young lady wants to visit the gentleman and claims to be his girlfriend.”

 “How did you know he was here?” The older man asked as he assessed her under thick, gray eyebrows. 

“Mark called me.” Hilda replied.

Mentioning Mark seemed to make them happy and they became visibly more relaxed and intimate. 

"I'm Simon," said the older man.

"And I’m Ed,” the younger man introduced himself . 

“I'm Hilda.” 

The sister introduced herself as Emily .

“But we call her Emma. Please, ladies, just go through the chamber first for complete disinfection. Don't worry, it's a combined ultraviolet light of cryogenic frequency and a highly fluctuating gravitation field.”

The door slid, a beautiful purple light came on. She stepped inside.
