"You did well, son. I can see why Kayden loves you," Rhoda muttered, placing a hand around my shoulder. "You look a mess," she eyed me up and down, then pointed towards the waiting lobby. "I think you need to calm down, son, and try to regain your strength for Kayden."
I looked towards the ER unit, but all I could see were the blue curtains. I clenched my fists tightly for a moment, then released them and nodded at Rhoda.
She took my hand and pulled me towards one of the chairs. She sat me down and took her seat right beside me. "Son, do you want to drink anything?" she asked warmly.
I stared at her for a moment and couldn't help but wonder how she was Leo's mother. Aside from the resemblance they shared, they were completely different in character.
Rhoda was a smooth and friendly talker, compared to Leo, who was pragmatic about everything.
