Sitting up out of bed I gently rub the sleep away from my eyes before grabbing my phone from my bedside table noticing several missed calls from Sam, Demetri and Mr. Larusso I quickly open up my contacts pressing on Mr. Larusso's number before placing the phone against my ear waiting for him to pickup.

"Lyn?" Mr. Larusso said as he finally picked up the phone "hi, Mr. Larusso. I-I'm sorry for not answering my phone I slept in and I just noticed all the missed calls right now." I muttered lowly "no, it's okay. Sam and the others were just worried about you, that's all." Mr. Larusso said "oh, okay. L-look...I-uh...I don't think I'm gonna go to practice today, sir." I whispered "Lyn. It's perfectly fine. Take all the time you need and just...come back when you're ready." Mr. Larusso replied as I nodded "thanks, Mr. Larusso. I really appreciate it." I smiled while running my fingers through my hair gently before hanging up the phone.

Slowly getting up out of bed I head out of my room and into the living room pacing back and forth between the living room and the dining room "uh, I really shouldn't go over there. No, I should. But, I really shouldn't. Oh, fuck it." I muttered lowly before heading out the front door quickly heading across the walkway towards Mr. Lawrence's apartment I knock on the door loudly until he opens the door "what the fuck do you want?!" He shouted before glancing down at me "hi, Mr. Lawrence. Uh, c-can I come in?" I asked him "sure. But, make it quick please I-I'm very busy." Mr. Lawrence replied as he shut the door behind me as I took a seat at the bar.

"Well, uh, I just wanted to ask you how Miguel is doing." I muttered lowly "h-he's, uh, he's still in a coma but, I know he's gonna make it out of this. He's a strong kid." Mr. Lawrence whispered as I looked up at him with tears brimming my eyes "yeah, he's, uh...he's a good kid. I have faith in him." I muttered while wiping the few stray tears that have fallen down my cheeks before looking up at him "yeah, we just have to have faith he'll be alright." Mr. Lawrence whispered as I nodded at him.




"And, uh...have you heard from Robby?" I worriedly asked him "uh, no. No I haven't heard from him at all. I have no fucking clue where he is, Lyn." Mr. Lawrence replied "okay. Well, uh, let me know if you ever hear from him." I said as he nodded at me "I will, Lyn. I will." Mr. Lawrence replied as he looked over at me "thanks, Mr. Lawrence." I replied before getting up and heading out the front door quickly making my way inside my apartment.
