The automatic doors opened swiftly as Jade strode in. She glanced quickly at the group of signs and pressed on down the wide polished corridor. Ahead of her a set of double doors flew open and a trolley, pushed by five concerned faces, passed rapidly by. The smell of antiseptic caught at the back of her throat. Pushing through the doors at the end of the corridor, she emerged into a brightly lit room. Rows of plastic seats groaned with injured people. Where was Manny? The call had been brief. All she knew was that Manny was here somewhere… .

Story 4
The warm dusty air moved up and down her coat, revealing the lining and causing her to pull it tight around her. She pushed her ticket into the metal slit and walked forward confidently. The boring buzzing sound of the escalators carried her down, lost in the confusion of posters advertising movies and cheap phone calls. She thought she saw a familiar face passing upwards to her right and stared back to see if she were right… .
