My Hero // Baji Keisuke

~5~

The next day...

For the first time, you felt rested. All you were thinking about was last night. Is he really going to help me? There's nothing he can do. You thought to yourself letting out a sigh. You then heard a knock on the door.

"May I come in?"

"Y-yeah."

A brunette haired lady walked in. She had a tray of food. "Good morning. I brought you something to eat. I'll just leave it here for you." She put the tray down at the small table next to you. "I'll be heading out now, if you need anything, you can press the button for help."

You looked at the food. You were given some yogurt, a bowl of fruit, and some orange juice. Your stomach then growled. You grabbed your tray and started eating. Once you were done, you grabbed the remote next to you and turned the tv on. You were just watching cartoons when someone suddenly barged in.

"Hey Y/N."

You turned your head to the door to see Baji come in. "W-what are you d-doing here?"

"What does it look like I'm doin? I'm just visiting. I did say I was gonna come by. Also, I know what we're gonna do." He said with a big smile. "I'm going to help you escape."

Escape?! "Y-you know we can't do that, w-we'll get in trouble."

"You should know by now that I can sneak in and out of places."

"B-but this is different. W-when they find out I-I'm gone, they'll be l-looking for me."

"But if I hide you, then no one will find you. It's easy really. I'll just keep you in my room and no one will ever find out."

No way this is going to work. We'll definitely get caught. "J-just give up. T-there's no way that'll w-work." You looked down knowing that nothing can be done about your situation.

"Alright then, I'll have to drag you outta here if that's what it takes."

Drag me out?! Is he really going to help me escape? "J-just stop. I-I don't know why you c-care so much."

"Because... I just feel like helping you out. Knowing what you've been through made me feel bad for you. I just don't want to see you go through that again."

You looked up at him and saw how sincere he looked. He wants to help me. Maybe I should just listen to him even if we might get caught. "F-fine, I-I'll go with you."

"Finally. Now, you'll have to wait until visiting hours are over. That's when I'll come by and sneak you out." You just nodded. "Ok good. I gotta leave now, but I promise I'll come back."

As he left, you were now feeling anxious. What if we get caught? We will get in big trouble! You were starting to overthink again. Calm down. Everything's going to be ok. Just don't think about it. You managed to calm down a bit. You continued watching tv to help you distract yourself.

Afternoon...

"I see you're doing better now. I'm sorry about what happened last time. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about your situation." Said the doctor.

You avoided eye contact as the doctor spoke to you.

Just then, the nurse from earlier came by. "Oh, hello doctor. I just came by to give the patient her lunch." She walked over to your table and left the tray there. "Now then, if you'll excuse me." She said as she left.

"Well, I see you're doing good, so I'll let you be. I'll come by again to see how you're doing." He said as he left.

You grabbed your tray and ate. This time she gave you white rice with chicken and some vegetables and water. I hate vegetables. You finished your meal except for your vegetables. You just stayed in your room watching tv all day.
