She said nothing and the two men continue talking.

Suddenly that man with anguished face had appeared, her new friend who she hardly knew spoke, things incomprehensible to her.

After a while she finally realized that they were talking about a horrific accident that had happened half an hour ago, a bus had hit a school and several people were injured and were in the hospital.

Mindy after knowing it proposed that they should go there to see how they could help and find out if there was any person known to her.

Without more they moved to the place, when they got there they were struck by what they saw. After the security guard brought them to the hospital emergency, there ten beds skirted the edge of the room, and in the center was a nurses desk, already several of the wounded remained in them waiting for them to take care of them. The rushing doctors gave orders as time was pressing.

Mindy when seeing all that felt a little dizziness and asked to sit in a chair. One of the nurses ran to assist her and passed a cotton swab impregnated with alcohol through her nose.

She after reacting fixed her gaze on the ground, discovering a red stain from one of the wounded.

She just asked what was that stain on the floor, the nurse who was attending her said "don't worry, it's just ketchup on the floor, " we just haven't had time to clean it up.

Already recovered she asked if her friend Richard was there since he had told her that he had planned to travel by bus to another city that day.

After the chief of nurses reviewed the list of patients, he confirmed that his friend was there but at the time he was in the operating room since they were operating on a leg that had fractured.

She was surprised by the news and now she only had to wait for her friend to come out of the operation well.
