꧁ Hero's Pov ꧂

I let go a breath of relief when I get finally wear a piece of clothing that actually comes from my wardrobe.

"Thank you for taking me some clothes." I say looking at Morgz sit right next to me.
I really missed the feeling the softness of the fabric of my clothes. I wonder how much did I paid my clothes.

I see Scarlett's eyes travelling on my face than my hands an the bruises on them.
"Can you two stop looking at me like that?" I ask.
I immediately feel something soft on my left hand that is placed on the table.
Scarlett hands are on mine. She's covering my bruises with her long fingers with a light purple nail polish.
"I'm so sorry." she says with her eyes full of tears.

I slowly slide my hand and take it away from her touch and then I move a lock of fair front her cheek.
"You don't have to be sorry." I say.
I feel Morgz move a bit so I look at him and I see him with his arm crossed and avoiding our eyes.
"No, I have." she says getting closer to me .
"Come here." I say opening my arms.
I get that she got scared. I still can't forget how my mom walked in the room.
I saw the real fear in her eyes.

I place my head between her shoulder and neck and I smell at her hair.
"Actually is a good thing that you wasn't there." I say leaning back and watching at her eyes.
"Unfortunately Jo was there. I should have never called her." I say saying out loud the one and only sentence that is echoing in my mind since when I saw how bad her condition were.
"How is she?" Scar asks looking me in the eyes.
I bite the inside of my cheek.
"She still resting. I really wonder how she will react when she will wake up." I confess.
"She will freak out." Morgz says still looking straight at the nothing since in the cafeteria there are just a few people.
"I didn't knew that she was so close to your boss and I also knew them!" I say looking at Scarlett talking about Christian Harper and his wife that I met. They still in the room waiting for Jo to actual wake up.

"Not much for the fact that she will have to stay in silence... she is pretty good at that but just the fact they there is a neck brace around her neck... it will make her go crazy." Morgz says.
Just how his voice seems so convinced and so calm makes me think of how good he knows her. Did I used to know her like he knows her?
Maybe even better than him since I am the one that lives in the apartment with her.

"If I get to see them again..." I say closing my fingers in punches.
"Can I talk to you privectly?" he asks turning in my way and I literally froze.

Did he really asked this in front Scarlett?

I look at him and he is just waiting for an answer.
I look at Scarlett and I see her upset about it. As she should. I mean she's a part of our group and this is kinda rude.
"You can't ask it with Scar around?" I ask so annoyed by Morgan's behaviour. How he can treat a close friend like this?
We are a family. We was I guess.
"No, that's fine. I'll go take some chips at the distributor." she says kissing my cheek and then standing up giving a look at Morgz.

"What the hell man!" I say so mad at him,.
I don't like it at all. Just the fact that even the two friends that I have left are not that attached anymore makes me feel sick.
What we become?
"I saw how you look at her. What she did to you? Why you're so mean to her?" I ask him.

He looks around.
"To me? Nothing." he says reducing his lips to a thin line pressing them together and placing with his ring.
"Bullshit. Tell me what happened. Why you to are this cold to each other. We were like a family." I say while my mouth gets so dry.
"Right, we were." he says clenching his teeth and look away from my eyes while his nostrils gets a bit wide.
"But-" I start to ask another question and he stops right away "Listen if you actually make me speak and tell you what I have to say ..." he says and he interrupts himself to take a sip of his orange juice.
"You will also get the answer to that." he says completing his sentence.
"Alright, than let's hear that." I say sitting on the chair more comfortably while inside of me I'm a bit afraid about what he has to tell me but at the same time I'm excited to finally get some answers to my questions.
