Dervan only let out a resigned sigh. "Step on it." He told the driver in front.
The man behind the wheel immediately started the ignition and drove out of the hospital premises. On the way, he glanced at Alessia through the mirror for a brief moment before his eyes focused back on the road.
Alessia stifled a yawn halfway to their destination, her eyes were heavy and they kept dropping shut at intervals. Eventually, she couldn't keep the sleep at bay and slumped onto Dervan's shoulder, making him stiffen.
He moved his eyes to her, to see that she was already nodding off. To make her a little more comfortable, he leaned back into the seat properly, and gently guided her head to rest on his chest.
After the ordeal today, he supposed he could at least let her have this moment of rest.
Dervan's eyes shifted to the files and envelope that she clutched tightly in her hand despite being asleep.
