“Okay,” Becca says with a nod, thankful to be able to focus on the movie again as she declares, “I’m still not calling you Frank, though.”
“I guess beggars can’t be choosers, can they?”
“Nope.”

“Dr. Langdon?” Her voice comes out as little more than a croak.
“I thought we agreed I was Frank outside of the hospital,” he says, instinctively laying a hand on her forehead.

“It’s going,” Mel answered. “I’m on break right now.” She’s never been happier to be on break until tonight, quite honestly. “However, I am tired and starving, so there’s that.” Frank was listening intently. “I was in a hurry before I left and I forgot to pack extra food. I haven’t eaten anything since a couple hours ago, but it was a vending machine snack and that won’t hold me over for the next eight hours.”
