"OKAY SO I THINK it should go like this." Nick began playing a certain rhythm on the piano, making Mal listen and nod in satisfication.

"Yes, that is amazing. I think it should go more this though." The girl started playing a different, more compatible rhythm. Nick smiled and agreed.

"You're starting to get it! We should practice longer though. Come back tomorrow?"

"Definitely."

As soon as Mal left the Wolfhard residence, she ordered an Uber and waited for a few minutes till it arrived.

As soon as she got in, she sent a text to her sisters saying that she was on her way back home, but only for an hour though. Because she had to go the hospital to check on Oakes.

Luna agreed, and went off to tell her mother.

As soon as the girl arrived at Cozy Corner, she found her mother, her aunt Sabah, and her siblings waiting for her.

"I can't stay for long. I have to go see him."

"Aren't you going to help us with those decorations ? Ramadan is only a week away." Aunt Sabah offered.

"I'm so sorry, auntie, but maybe tonight-"

Her mother gave her a look of disapproval. She rolled her eyes.
"What?"

"Did you even eat? Or are you just going to keep wandering around with no food?" Nawal asked.

"Mum, seriously? That's what you're worried about? Fine, I'll eat something! But I have to be quick. The others are waiting for me."

Rajwan and Adam entered the kitchen to make their sister a quick meal, as Nawal ordered them to.

They made pizza, which was Mal's favorite, especially when they made it.

Mal, however, sat on the table, scrolling through her phone. She opened her Instagram, only to see that The Night Stalker was still trending.

They were sending hate to Finn, who they thought was the director, Timothée, and Oakes. However, other people, especially men, had different opinions.

"I wonder how did they do all those rape scenes. Especially with the one Oakes was in. I know it's probably just the filming, but I still don't get it." Someone said.

"What an amusing movie." A man replied, with a smirking emoji. Mal cringed.

"Yes. I know! It turned me on." Another man commented, with a 'water drop' emoji.

The girl kept reading the comments with a disgusted expression.

She couldn't understand how men could be so evil. How they were so turned on by the pornographic scenes, and how they could sexualize children (Finn, Pilot and Oakes).

Until, she got a text from Saoirse.

Hey.
Just wanted to say that Oakes is awake, and he's waiting for you. He misses you so much.

Mal's eyes teared at the words. She remembered Oakes' handsome face, his blue eyes, and the lips she missed already.

At first, when they were mad at each other, she couldn't even stand the sight of him. But now, she couldn't wait to see him.

She smiled, and turned her sight to her phone.

Don't worry. I'll be there as soon as I can.
