You and Dan had been at the cafe for what seemed like hours. Its like you two were in your own world as everyone else at the table chatted with each other, laughing and eating. Phil would occasionally glance over or try to join the conversation but he wouldn't be able to keep up and he felt almost like a third wheel. Phil probably felt left out because his best friend was so caught up in talking to you, you thought. Dan broke the conversation when he said he needed to use the restroom. While he was away you checked your phone.

Where are you? I think we should go -Jim

I'd better get going. I can't wait for Dan though I guess I'll tell Phil to tell him I left. "Hey Phil! I really gotta go and I can't wait for Dan so tell him I said goodbye", you say. 

"Aww! Already! Dan's gonna miss you so much. Well, I'll tell him for you anyways." He forced a smile and you left. It seemed like Phil was more sad about you leaving instead of the thought of how Dan would feel after you left without personally telling him goodbye. Maybe Phil, Dan and I are just becoming better friends. 

You walk outside and see Jim across the street. He's lying on the floor. His stomach was covered in red and his coat was wet around that area. his eyes were closed and his skin was extremely pale. You run to him and you see 3 stab wounds in his stomach and bruises on his face and knuckles.

Everything happened so fast. You called 911 and the ambulance came. next thing you know, you're in the hospital by Jim's bed. You hadn't cried since saw him lying on the street and you weren't gonna start crying now. You didn't feel like crying anyways. You felt like you had spent all your tears on your mother. You looked at your watch. It'd been 5 hours since you left the restaurant. You called Dan about what happened just so he knew. The doctor said that he would survive but he needed to rest. Sherlock, one of the detectives at the scene, said that the guy who stabbed Jim was drugged and didn't know what was happening. 

Suddenly Jim groans and sighs. You look to him with hopeful eyes. He tries to get up but you push him back down and said that the doctor said that he'd need A LOT of rest.

"Hey there. I'm really sorry... I... ugh"

"Shhh don't talk. Just go to sleep. Doctor said that you need to get a lot of rest", you said with a smile on your face knowing that he was going to be fine.
