salish's pov

"are you nervous?", my dad asked as we were driving to the hospital

"a little, I mean I know his family wouldn't let me come if he wasn't doing somewhat better, but i'm still worried.", I said

"right, and I talked to his mom and she said now would be an appropriate time for you to come."

"that's good. I guess i'm just worried about seeing his face all bloody or a cast all the way up his leg, you know? like just seeing him in a bad condition I guess."

"I don't think you'll see a bloody face, but he for sure has his cast still, I mean it's only been a about a week. if you need to step out of the room at any time you can salish, okay?"

"that makes me feel a lot better", I said turning my head out the window.

my dad inched our car into a parking spot and we began the walk up to nidal's hospital room. 

"does nidal know i'm coming?", I asked

"no, his mom and I thought it would be cool if you surprised him"

"true, because he's ALWAYS surprising me"

eventually we found our way to nidal's room and I knocked on the door. 

nidal's mom opened the door slowly. me and my dad both said hi, and she explained that nidal had just fell asleep.

"would it be okay if salish sits by him and waits for him to wake up?", my dad asked

"i don't see why that would be a problem", she said

"i'll let you be with nidal while your dad and I talk outside", his mom said smiling. 

"sounds good" I whispered

I sat down in the chair next to his bed and observed his seemingly lifeless body. 

nidal didn't look like he was in a super horrible condition, but it was still scary seeing him like this for me. the evidence of the accident still lingered from head to toe on nidal. he had a bandage going across his head from his forehead to the back of his head, which was really alarming to see and made my heart race. his chest and hands were covered with scratches, and he had a huge cast on his entire leg. 

little by little I moved my hand closer to his until I was holding it. I gently caressed his scratched up hand in an attempt to cure my anxious thoughts about the situation. 

our parents still weren't back which I thought was odd, but I was enjoying the alone time with nidal, even if he was asleep. 

I immediately jinxed my thoughts, and he started rustling around in bed. I let go of his hand and pretended like I was looking around the room when he woke up. 

he sat up and stretched his arms, and then looked over at me. 

"SALISH? I THOUGHT YOU WERE JIJI!", he said
