"Mike is in the hospital"

"In the hospital? What happened"
"He had some kind of a stroke. or a heart attack or something," Britney started sobbing.
You put your arms around her and give her a strong hug.
{if coworkerlove==1}Even now, in this moment, you can feel her breasts touching you, and you secretly smell her hair. And you want to dream away, but of course reality also starts hitting you.{endif} "How serious is it?"
"I don't know, he's still alive. but he's in the hospital."

Daniel tries to hug you both. "He's going to be alright. Mike is a strong guy."

Slowly people are finishing their drinks and coming to terms with their shock and return to their desks and to the order of the day.
It's difficult to work normally without every now and then thinking of Mike, but you pretend to work just fine.
You text Lisa and tell her about the news. The message is delivered, but not read. She must be in a meeting. You should probably call her. But you don't like to call and what can she do anyway with the news.

In the afternoon through a manager there comes some news, apparently he called the hospital. Mike suffered a sudden cardiac arrest. But he is alright now. They're going to run some tests on him, but that's that. Everyone is relieved.
