välsigna dig = bless you

3RD PERSON POV

As [Name] and Simon walked down the hall, Simon couldn't help but feel frustrated at [Name] since she had no idea what was going on at the moment.

As they both walked past an empty corridor, the sound of a baby crying rang through the walls. [Name] looked around as her heart clenched slightly at the fact that a child might be alone in a place like this.

Simon didn't give two fucks and kept walking.

A few doors wouldn't budge, but the last one at the end of the hall did. Simon pushed it open and trudged to the first door to the left. Seeing a monster, he immediately shot it down and looked around the room for anything useful. However, there was nothing. Just a hoodie that seemed to hold no value.

[Name], on the other hand, found a few other syringes in the kitchen and placed them in the bag she had.

'I'm a horrible person... he doesn't need someone like me to drag him down. He looked so disappointed... I'm a failure.'

[Name] tightly shut her eyes to prevent tears from falling. She felt her nose start to tingle, and a lump formed in her throat. God, please. Not here. She shook her head and took a deep breath.

Simon was outside the room, waiting for [Name] to get out. He picked at his nails before looking up to see the girl make her way towards him. Simon then walked towards the elevator, pushing the gated part aside and letting [Name] walk in first. He was still a gentleman despite his bitter demeanor. After she had stepped in, Simon followed and shut the doors behind himself.

He clicked a button with then made the elevator go up. The silence between the two was tense.

[Name] hated when moments like these came up. She wished he had fallen off the wooden planks from earlier.

She kept to herself as Simon stood there with crossed arms and a slight scowl on his face.

Her eyes went to her arm as she contemplated reaching into her bag, but she didn't and kept her gaze to her limb.

"... you piss me off, y'know that?"

[Name] flinched and looked up at Simon, who was already looking at her. "... excuse me?" The man rolled his eyes and turned his body towards her, "I said, you piss me off."

"... Oh... I'm sorry."

"You should be. You nearly got us killed at least 3 times by now," Simon sighed and furrowed his brows. "I wouldn't be surprised if one of us got killed before we even get out of this place."

[Name] felt hurt and shameful. She knew he was right, so she kept silent.

'Geez, that's one way to put it.'

She sighed and held her arm, "... I didn't mean to freeze back there. I truly mean it, Simon."

He sighed and rubbed his face, "... just don't let it happen again. For real this time."
