Roberta
I ran through the corridor of the hospital, my heart pounding. What have the boy done now?
I pushed my way against a nurse. Her face glared daggers at me, but i guess she was used to it.
The hospital was silent in its own disturbing way. Footsteps rang.
I felt anything but tired.
"mom!" James stopped me, shaking my shoulders. I could only stare at his face as a skidded to a stop.
His eyes were glossy and clothes rumpled, like he had carried tony to the hospital.
Pepper was sitting in the scene behind Rhodey, eyes red and panicky. She twiddled her thumbs.
I somehow managed my stern look.
" how is he?"
"i don't know, it has been half an hour..."
" James. What happened?" i inquired, pulling my hands to my waist.
" he just fainted, i don't know." Rhodey looked worried.
I dusted my coat and slipped on the chair near pepper. It was cold. I shuddered. James was standing. He declined my offer to sit.
I never understand tony's friendship with James. They argue so much that my wits stand on the edge, but are the closest friends i ever saw. They are just like brothers.
And now, we can only wait as tony fights his battle.
