The tension in the hospital room was thick after Helena's warning about the golden-eyed man. Andrey opened his mouth to ask for more details but his phone suddenly vibrated sharply in his pocket.
He glanced at the screen. Sarah.
A flicker of unease crossed his face. She was supposed to be resting at the apartement, still recovering and barely able to move comfortably on her own. She wouldn't call unless something was wrong.
"Excuse me for a moment," Andrey said to Helena, stepping slightly to the side but keeping the call on speaker so Sein and Lisa could hear. He answered quickly, voice calm but alert.
"Sarah? What's wrong?"
There was a short pause on the other end, followed by Sarah's voice low, tense, and quieter than usual, like she was trying not to make noise.
"Andrey… there's a strange person standing right in front of the door."
