Please say you were not affected by the attack.
Please tell me you are safe in your room at Guest Accommodations. Please say you were not harmed.
Please. Please. – MESSAGE SENT 30 MINUTES AGO
My heart swelled as I felt his genuine care for me… I knew it was something real, and not something manufactured for Committee’s sake.
I am here. I am safe. I am good. I typed back to him and waited for his response.
No more than a minute had passed before a new message came through.
YES! Thank goodness. That is the best news ever. All other communication is frozen. I was going crazy – imagining terrible things.
The attack was not remarkably close to here. I can see smoke in the distance from my window, but that is about it. All travel is suspended, but I am being sent home soon.
That is wonde
