516 A Heart-stopping Moment

It was as if time stood still in the hallway the moment Felix and Parker were shoulder to shoulder. Felix's mouth became dry and the sudden urge to flee washed over him. If it wasn't for the door frame catching his weight, he probably would have already fallen. There was just something eerie about this man that he could not explain. He had been deployed to wars in the past that was scarier than this, but he couldn't deny the feeling of something evil that emanated from that man.

Through his periphery, he saw the infamous Parker continue to walk towards the elevators without turning back. Felix had to force himself, willing a foot up to take the first step into the senator's room, his hand still tightly clutching the medical chart.
