I'm 108! I could die at any moment, and if you don't let me see him, I might, just to spite you. You wouldn't want that on your conscience, now, would you? )

"Or fresh clothes or a drink or whatever else you've got." He stood and leaned against the windowsill, resolutely ignoring whatever staff member thought they had to irritate him again.

Obviously, he didn't recognise her voice.
He sounded like a little boy, forlorn in a way that made her want to hug him, and petulant in a way that made her want to laugh at him. Instead, she opened her bag and pulled out the container she'd stashed inside.
"Not even biscuits?" she asked.

Muriel didn't miss the glare - the darkness of it - before he registered who she was. The look was unsettling, but she knew it wasn't for her. She supposed she would glare, too, if she'd been locked away for so long.
In fact, she had just glared hard enough to make a young man almost wet his pants, so she supposed she shouldn't make judgements.
She smiled, trying to give him a moment to get used to seeing her.
"I snuck in," she said. "Or rather, I stared down one of the staff out there until he let me see you. I really do have biscuits." She rattled the tin.
