Smiling back, Sarah shook his hand while inspecting the ID briefly. It seemed legitimate enough, but she was also cautious, so her next move was to alert Peter. Peter, can you meet me in the dining room? There's a nurse from the hospital here to see Niki.
The communication was seamless, as she moved right in to speaking to Ben as she let go of his hand. "She's with the kids right now," she said, nodding in the direction of the dining room before starting in that direction. "I honestly don't know if it's helping her, but she really doesn't need to be alone and the kids seem to be handling it as well as they can."
She frowned as they walked, one arm wrapped around her torso, the other elbow resting on it as she rubbed at her cheek. "She's still the same. Not much worse, but definitely not any better."
