RIIIINGGGGG

Second day at school, sun is shining, birds are singing and I'm here sleeping in Latin class.

Yep, it's my favorite class. After all I always dream fun stuff!

"Kam can you please tell me which is the third declension of homo, hominis?"

"Eh..." No idea, oh! "Plural or singular?"

"Plural..." She gazes me with her cursed eyes, she really is a little bit scary.

"Hominibus..."

"Have you been paying attention?" No. But never mind... This is bullshit!

"Yes miss, I just don't understand you, really... Not even your letter. Is that a graffiti?!"

My classmates laugh, but Miss Anna isn't laughing.

"Kam your new, right?" Duh... Well your face isn't very difficult to forget so... Yes, I'm new.

"Yeah... Why?"

"Be careful, is just that. You aren't going to the head's office but next time you won't be that lucky. Oh! And you will copy and translate this whole text for tomorrow. Your welcome." Silence in the class. Great...

No really, now I'll sleep much better.

"So let's continue..." The teacher continues and in the moment she turns to the board, Dan looks at me with a strange face. His blue eyes make me feel nervous, he seems to notice and smiles...

Why? Why does his smile makes me feel this way?

------------------------------------------------------

Latin class is over! Time to have some lunch!

Trish and Jack join us at the table. Tris seems sad, and Jack is, as he always is, talking about something that I've long time ago lost interest on.

"So what do you guys think, it could be a good idea, couldn't it?"

"Yeah! It's great we can earn a lot of money! They'll really be grateful..." Dan seems to like the idea, but what was it?

"Sorry guys, what are you talking about?"

"We're planning on doing a solidarity lunch... My mom is raising money to help an ONG Little Details, it just started and they need a lot of money. Maybe we can contribute something." Tris talking, he really wasn't feeling all right. His voice sounds faltering and in a very low level.

"Hey... Are you ok?" I couldn't help it.

"Yes... Why?" He tries to smile but the effort doesn't really work.

"Men let it out." Jack pats him gently.

"No guys really, I'm good, It's just that I'm a little bit worried about my brother. Yesterday he had a car accident and... Well his in the hospital. He'll be alright but... I haven't seen him since last week and they told me he looks different now and I don't know what to expect.  It's..."

"Why haven't you said this to us before? You're definitely not good." Was he crying?

"I don't know is just, I didn't wanted you guys to get worried."

"Well now we are, and we're going to the hospital with you, if you want... Of course. Man I know how you feel." Dan said this as if he
really knows how he feels. After his comment nobody talks until school finishes.

I'm leaving now but someone calls me out. The corridor is full of people but I can see Tris coming towards me.

"Kam?"

"Yes?"

"Can you come with me? Please..." Wait, me? To the hospital?

"Are you sure you want me to go, I mean what about Jack or Dan they..."

"No, they can't come, I need you."

Well ok... That's weird.

"After all you don't know my brother, it's time for you to meet him." He makes this little smile. I love when this guys smile. I remember the moment I crashed with him in the plain, how cute he was in the dark were I could only see his hazel eyes... How could I know I was going to go with him to the hospital back then?!

"Of course... Let's go then." After saying this he smiles to me grateful.

"Thank you" Aw... You're welcome a thousand times my dear friend.

Wait... What? My dear friend. After all I only know him for... Three days? Though they seem more...

"Na... You're welcome. You're can count on me..."

"Like 1, 2, 3..?" You're kidding. How can he make a joke in a moment like this?

Though it's a good one... So I continue the song.

"And I'll be there. And I know when I needed I can count on you like 4,3,2 and you'll be there..!" This makes him laugh, which makes me feel better. But again he seems to come back to the real world.

"Come on, my mom is waiting."

Hey!
As you can see I don't really like Latin.
Didn't remember the Latin class eh..?
You didn't expect this...
Am I right?
Poor Trish...! No really. He comes back from a week in England and his brother has an accident.
And Dan? Why does he seems to be so touched? He really seems to know how Tris feels... Did he suffered an accident in his family too?
And Kam, she's asked to go to the hospital with Trish...
(I added some jokes and good stuff to make it less dramatic. 😅)
Just hope you liked it.
