on the floor. Wrapped in a floral quilt, lying on a big blanket, Alex was out cold.
“Mr. Warren?” Barry called out a few times, but Alex didn’t budge. Panicking, Barry ran next door to get Ellie. He
caught her just as she was waiting for the elevator.
“Dr. Thompson, please ccheck on Mr. Warren! He won't wake up!” Barry pleaded.
“He's fine. Just slap him hard a couple of times, and he’ll wake up,” Ellie replied, stepping into the elevator.
