Alive [DISCONTINUED]

As Sock was puting away his clothimg Jonathan decided to try to have a conversation....

Jonathan: "So Sock why are you here in the fostor home?... I mean you don't have to say or anything."

Sock stopped what he was doing an started to violently shiver. Then a minute afterwards he continued what he was doing, then he imediatly climbed to the top bunk to be isolated.

Jonathan: "Sock? Are you okay?"

Sock just stayed silent in the top bunk and covered his whole body under the blanket. Jonathan sighed clibed up the ladder and sat at the edge of the bed. He saw that the figure under the sheets was crying.

Jonathan: "You know talking about something sad kinda takes of the loneliness and presure off, so do you want to try?"

Sock did no move to talk, just stayed silent. A few weeks went by and he hasn't talked to anyone.

During those weeks he constantly thought about what Jonathan said, but he didn't want to tell his roommate that he was homisidal AND a little suisidal, because he got more depressed thinking he was alone in this world even though he wasn't.

Jonathan stoped trying to talk to Sock because he knew that trying to talk with him was useless. What Sock forgot was that Providence was coming to check up on him...  It was after school on a Tuesday that Providence came by.

Providence: "Hello Sock! Where are you? I know your in here Mrs. Heiwajima said you were here."

Sock uncovered himself from the blanket and climbed down the ladder to the floor. He was sick today so he probably looked horrible, which he did.

Providence: "Sock, are you feeling fine?"

Sock just shook his head saying "no" he then pointed to his throat meaning he couldn't talk even if he wanted to. Since Providence had some of her medical supplies she ushered him to sit down on the bed so she could do a check up on him.

Providence: "Sock, are you allergic to anything?"

sock nodds "no". So at least Providence knows it has nothing to do with allergies. She leves the room to get water, when she comes back Sock is having a little coughing fit.

Providence: "Here Sock, drink this-"

she then pulled out a cough drop.

"-and suck on this afterwards."

Sock nodded as providence checked his temperature. It was 102.1 so Providence was a little woried. That was when Jonathan came in.

Jonathan: "ah... Who are you?"

Providence turned to him and replied.

Providence: "Oh! Are you his roommate? I'm Providence, Sock's personal doctor. I just wanted to check up on him, I'm kinda glad I did. When I leave can you take care of him?"

Jonathan just nodded. The two heard a little snoring and found Sock passed out on the bottom bunk. There was silence then it was broken again by the doctor.

Providence: "Has he been speaking to anyone these past weeks?"

Jonathan: "No he hasn't, when he first came he seemed sad so I told him he could talk about it... But he didn't."

Providence: " *sigh* I thought so, when he gets better tell him it's Doctors orders for him to talk, because if he keeps this up, then all of the sudden we wants to talk it will take a while for him to get adjusted to talk again."

Jonathan: "I'll tell him when he wakes up. I was just going to give him his homework, because he missed school today because of him being sick."

Providence: "Thank you, and take care of him... He kinda has it rough with everything."

Providence stands up to leave but-

Jonathan: "Can I ask why he had it rough?"

Providence: "Sorry but only he will tell you... But so you know there is one peculiar thing about him though. You'll know if he tells you or not, because when he does you'll ethire feel scared, shocked ar a mix between both, trust me I know.... Now I will take my leave."

Jonathan just nodded trying to figure out what the doctor was saying, while Providence walked out of the room.
