Nina waits for her Gran to make it over, constantly thinking of bad things that could happen. Would the plane crash? Would Eddie attack her Gran when she arrives? Nina subconsciously bites her nails, a habit she did not inherit until now. Nina rushes down the stairs when she hears the bell ring, but Victor gets there before her. Before he opens the door,
he gives Nina a wry smile. What was that about?
The minute Nina's Gran steps in the door she scans around the hallway for Nina. Nina goes down the last step of the stairs and hugs her Gran weakly. When Gran pulls away,
Victor says "Well hello there, Ms. Martin. Would you like a quick cup of tea before you two head back to the airport again?"
Gran looks at Nina and back at Victor. "Well, I am a little out of breath. Just before I go," Gran replies. "Splendid. Follow me,"
Victor smiles.
Victor heads to flick the kettle while Gran rubs Nina's hand. "I called the police and told them exactly what happened and they said to come in and the hospital will give you a medical examination and afterwards you are just going to discuss what happened on that night you got-" Victor inter-
rupts Gran in the kitchen. "Would you like sugar, Ms. Martin?"
"Oh, yes. Thank you." Nina just watches Victor pour the sugar from the packet. 'Don't we have one of those jars to hold the sugar in. Why does he have a little packet?' Nina thinks.
After Gran and Victor finish their tea, Victor asks "So Ms. Martin, if you don't mind me asking, why are you tak-
ing Nina back to America?" Gran freezes. "Oh... well, you see,
all her friends there just missed her so much and were con-
stantly asking me when she's coming back again, so I called her up and I asked her if she would like to visit and she was delighted. Weren't you, Nina?" Gran claims, turning to Nina.
"Yeah, I'm so excited to see Emily again," Nina replies. "Oh,
dear, I feel a bit light-headed. It must be from the heat outside.
Anyway, Nina, we must be out to head to the airport!"
Victor helps Gran and Nina to carry their luggage out, but then he calls Eddie to help him. "Yeah, Victor?" he asks.
"Would you mind helping Nina carry her luggage?" Eddie smiles at Victor. "I'd be delighted," he replies happily. Nina gives Eddie a narrow look. If only he knew what was happen-
ing. "Where are you going?" Eddie asks. "Oh, just visiting my aunt in Bristol. She's really ill at the moment," Nina lies. She can't tell him she's going to America. It's weird enough she's going all of a sudden after Eddie raped her. When Nina and her Gran get in the cab, Eddie and Victor wave goodbye. No Fabian.
Nina is not excited for a 24-hour flight to America,
but she'll survive. She used to love travelling, but she just kind of lost interest over time. When Nina and Gran step onto the plane, Gran walks weakly to her seat, sits down and puts her hand on her head. "You okay?" Nina asks. "Yes, still a bit light-
headed. A good sleep will help. You get some rest too, sweetie.
And we'll talk tomorrow."
After sleeping for six hours and talking for the rest of the time, they're finally at the airport. Nina stretches when she rises from her seat and so does Gran. "Ouch!" her Gran exclaims.
"What's wrong?" Nina's concerned. "A dart of pain just went through my back. Probably from sitting down too long!"
They get in another cab to reach the police station.
"What police are we going to?" Nina asks. "The SVU. They specialize in sexual harassment and they are a very good team."
Gran replies. "Oh, okay then."
They are at the doors of SVU. "What was the name of that woman she said to ring the bell for?" Gran thinks out loud.
"Oh yes, Olivia Benson." Gran clicks 'Olivia Benson' on the bell and two minutes a woman with a stern face and shoulder-
length hair comes to the door with a clipboard. "Hi, I'm Olivia Benson. What is your name?" she asks. "Danielle Martin," Gran replies. Olivia turns to Nina. "You must be Nina Martin. I'm really sorry for what happened to you but first we are going to do a medical examination to see if you are okay. Are you al-
right with that?" Olivia asks. Gran gasps. "I think you'll have to take me with her," Gran whispers and drops to the floor.
