Chapter Forty Five
What was worse for Nathan was the fact that he was locked inside. He remained behind the closet, not wanting to expose himself unnecessarily. Hopefully, Nurse Reese will remember he was in there and come for him. If she didn't, he was sure Borgina would find a way to get him out. She always did. All he needed to do was find a way to contact her.
It turned out he didn't need to contact Borgina because Nurse opened the door soon after. She accompanied him back to his apartment, but opted not to go inside.
"I'm in no mood for Borgina's antics." She said, turning around in front of Nathan's door.
Nathan went inside and walked straight to his computer. He was going to sacrifice the remaining hour and a half of "lights out", figuring the MoonEx puzzle out. He could no longer stand not knowing. Becky's death made him feel like his could come at any time. He wanted to act as fast as possible. Unfortunately, nature picked that time to choose not to be outsmarted. As soon as he placed his fingers on his keyboard, his eyelids closed shut and his head dropped. He was taken over by sleep before he got the chance to type even a letter.
Nathan woke up to Borgina calling his name. An announcement was coming through and quite honestly, he would have preferred to remain asleep. Colonel Ford was on again, talking about the reason for Becky's execution. According to him, alien warship controls were found in Becky's possession, confirming he had ties to the alien forces.
"What a liar." Nathan thought.
