Lena ended up wandering around the hospital until the coffee shop could be located. The fuzzy-headed feeling from the sleeping medication was not going away and coffee seemed like the best option. 

The barista managing the front desk was nice enough and quickly got the coffee ready. There wasn't even a question about how many espresso shots Lena requested. 

"I hope your family gets to feeling better soon, dear." The princess thanked the woman before turning and leaving. Sentiments were nice but they never actually did anything to make such situations any better. Lena was genuinely thankful for the coffee though. The aroma alone was enough to begin lifting the tired haze. The chance of eating anything soon was low which meant the coffee would have to do as sustenance for the time being.
