Rose breezed through the sliding doors of the hospital and headed down the hall. Normally, Rose would have no idea how to navigate inside the hospital but today she was picking up a distinct mental signal that would lead her to the person she was trying to find.
Emma was at one of the nurses' stations on the fourth floor looking through a stack of files, almost large enough to bury her. Rose waited for Emma to notice her because Emma had always hated it when had made any communication inside her head. Once Emma looked up, the two women smiled at each other as Rose offered up a bag of chocolate éclairs.
After finding a deserted break room, the two women sat down to enjoy their treats.
"How have you been?" Rose signed to Emma.
"Wonderful, things are reaching some semblance of normalcy."
"I wanted to explain some things to you, mainly about what I was doing at that meeting the other day." Emma began to wave her explanations off. "No, no I do. I'm trying to get a job in Claire's security detail. I'm going to try to work with them, from now on."
"And Rebel?" Emma questioned.
"I haven't heard from him in a while but I would still help him out when I could. This doesn't change what I've been doing. I'm just hoping that maybe this group will do things differently."
"They are good people."
"Yeah, I can see that. I also wanted to talk to you about Peter." Emma gave Rose a confused look. "Yeah, we knew each other a long time ago. He doesn't really remember me. What I wanted to say is that, I may have to explain some things that I might have been doing in the last couple of years. You would come up."
"Okay."
"I think Emma, that you should talk to Peter about it. I know it's not a big deal like, maybe say Samuel, but I would feel better if Peter heard it from you. Just so, I don't feel like I'm speaking for you or your feelings, you know. It would probably get him off my back too. Which would be nice."
"I'll talk to him soon."
"Thank you." Rose stood and began to leave.
"Hey" Emma called after her, "Peter is a good man. You can trust him."
"Yeah, I know." Rose turned and headed down the hallway.
