There was a very brief minute of silence.
Sunshine and Hades narrowed their eyes at Fifi, waiting for her answer.
"Who is Colleta?" Nurse Cole asked.
Her daughter." Hades pointed at Fifi.
Nurse Cole was puzzled, not once had Fifi mentioned that she had a daughter, nor that she was worried about her safety. Her mind had been focused on nothing but robbing food and water and getting to this base.
Meanwhile, Fifi appeared to have frozen. Her eyes were wide in panic, and her lips trembled. "What do you mean by where is Coletta? I....I thought she was here already. I told her if she ever gets in trouble she should come to you."
Hades' fist tightened at his sides, rage brewing beneath the calm exterior. Colleta was almost a child: only sixteen. He remembered her laugh, her innocence. She was a bit of troublemaker, but she was mostly harmless.
