Chapter five - healing

for a few weeks on and forward. you came to visit every day and whether or not you like to admit it, it made your day exciting. He always had some snarky comment or remark to say about your outfit or your hairstyle, but it was fun to see what he would come up with each time eventually you came up with your own comebacks and he would even rate them sometimes. you both still didn't get along very well, but it was subtle improvement from the death threats you were getting before.
The mayor would come in and even check on him every now and then would get to tell him onjust how much progress Brad made.
The mayor seemed more than grateful he was so happy and thankful for all that you've done for him
"I just want to thank you again seriously you do not know how much of a help this has been for me to know that Brad is under good care. It makes me deeply grateful and I couldn't ask for anyone better to help me except for you so thank you again."
You hear from behind me as I look back onto the hospital bed which was covering his face
"dad, you're going to embarrass me what did I tell you about calling me.. Egh.. Brad in public, especially with the player around."
Mayor Thanyeil took a deep breath as he sighed a solemn look appears on his tired face
"oh I remember how you used to love that name. pea and you would run into my arms. Where did the time go? What happened..."
The mayor looked back nostalgically as Brad just laid in bed a sad look now appearing on his face you step out of the way, letting the mayor walk over to his son, he cups the boy's cheek and smile softly.
"no matter what you say or what you go by you will always be my little boy and nothing will ever take that away from me"
The mayor began to softly rub Brad's cheek with his thumb. Brad looks at you as if wanting to be left along with his dad and you decide to give them their privacy.
you can't hear much, but you can hear the muffled crying of Brad.
".... I-im so so sorry dad I'm so sorry I couldn't have been a better son to you. "
And the other voice was quiet, which was the mayors
"Shh.. Shh my boy it is all right. I promise you you're still my baby boy I could never be mad at you. It's all right. I know what happened. I know it was that sword those voices. because you were just so sweet that little sword of yours and I don't know what happened or why they came after you but I promise I will always keep you safe. I promise to be a better dad. it was all my fault since I couldn't protect you.. "
The rest was pretty unclear, but I could hear some retorts from Brad. well that whole emotional scene was going on you make your way over to the vending machine taking out your wallet take out a few Tix. feeling it into the machine you press 2b to get yourself a soda 4a for a pack of chips and 1c to get Brad, some water with all the crying he was doing he might as well have some water to drink.

eventually, the mayor leaves with teary eyes of his own. He waves goodbye to the staff, and then you he gives you a quiet nod as he exits the building, you make your way back in pushing open the door expected you to make a snarky comment on how he was weak for crying but his surprise you didn't just put the water bottle down and sat.. that it felt like it was cutting through him judging every action he did in the past it's not what you were actually doing, but he swears those eyes just hurts knowing that they're looking at him and such a pathetic state
He tries to cover up the weakness he feels in himself with some joke
"Hah.. I must look like a wreck right now.." he takes the bottle of water and bring it up to his lips.
"Hah... I guess so but so do I.. " Brad looked up at you and the slight surprise. Your voice wasn't mocking in a comforting way. He shook his head and rolled his eyes.
"damn right you look like one."
