"Ethan? Oh my gosh, bro. How do you feel?"

"Where are we?"

"The hospital. How do you feel?"

"Running home. Ignoring mom. And after that it's blank."

"Ethan, please. I am so sorry. I was just trying to help. I thought they would stop if you told someone!"

"I denied it, I knew this would happen."
