Where to Go From There?

Chapter 2

Rey opened her eyes , it took her a few seconds to recall what happened, then everything came back to her and she felt fear, sadness and joy in a short amount of time. She looked around her, remembered throwing herself on the bed and falling asleep quickly. Someone had took off her shoes, put the lightsaber on a chair and the sheets on her. She screeched and took off the bed. It was dark outside, how long had she been asleep? She put her shoes on and grabbed the lightsaber before heading towards the door. It directly lead to a kitchen with half a dozen of doors all around, it seemed to be the heart of the house. There was the little girl from when she arrived sitting at the table, playing with a puzzle.

"You're still up? The child nodded. Do you know where my friend is? Is he okay?" The girl pointed at a  door on Rey's right.
"I don't know how he is. Dad told me to not approach him." The girl pointed at the kitchen worktop. "He made you a plate to eat in case you wake up."  There was bread and a glass of milk. Rey's stomach grounded. She drank the glass at once and thanked the girl.
"What's your name again?"
"Nora." She answered, focusing back on her puzzle.
"Thank you Nora." Rey took the bread in her hand and took a bit of it before heading to the room where Ben was.

The father of Nora was putting some sheets on a chair and Ben was lying on the bed, still unconscious, covered in bandages and his leg was uplifted.
"You're up, the man said when he saw Rey. He's going to be okay. He was in a critical state when you brought him here. He had intern damages and the worse was his leg. I did all I could, now he needs sleep and time." She smiled and thanked him. She took another bite of her bred, put it in her pocket and evaluated how she was feeling physically. Her body was still numb, but she seemed fine.
"Can I try something to help Ben?"
"Do what you want with him." He said, crossing his arms. Rey put her hand on Ben's broken leg, took a deep breath and closed her eyes. The doctor watched her. She pulled her hand away from the leg and staggered. He rushed to catch her.
"Are you okay?" Rey blinked and took a hand to her head.
"I just need to sit." He took her out of the room into the kitchen and made her site next to his daughter. He asked why Nora wasn't in her bed when he saw her.
"I don't want to miss mom." He smiled and put his hand on her little redhead.
"I will wake you up if I hear her coming. But you need to sleep or you won't have the energy to welcome her back." Nora nodded and yawned, then stood up to walk to the door at the opposite of Ben's.

The man turned around to focus back on Rey.
"So what did you do with the leg?"
"I gave him a little of my energy. His leg is fixed." She grabbed her lightsaber and activated it. The man stared at it for a few seconds, then she retracted it.
"Jedi stuff." She took her bred out of her pocket and went back to eating it.
"So that's why the first order wanted you so bad." He said after a moment.
"Mostly, yes."

He then went to cooke something for her and asked a few more questions about her and Ben. She told him about how she searched the tracer to find Palpatine, that she had talked to Ben after a fight and that he came to help her fighting Palpatine and healed her at the end of the fight. She explained that Ben was the name he had before becoming Kylo Ren and that now, he would probably be taking it back. The doctor was sitting next to her, listening with attention her explanations as she was eating.
"So the first Order really fell?" Rey smiled and nodded. The man smiled back, but she could see a light worry in his eyes.
"I..." He started playing with his hands nervously. "My wife was in the resistance. You've been here for a little more than a day. I don't actually know how long it should be taking her to come back, but..." He didn't finished his sentence. Rey felt her heart sink when she learned she hadn't been giving any sign of life to her friends for such a long time. They must be worried just like this man. She passed her hand around the doctor's shoulders and looked at him.
"Your wife is a really courageous person and a hero for fighting at our sides. I am sure she is fine." The man smiled but she could see the worry in his eyes wasn't gone. She pulled her arm away and went back to eating.
"I still don't know your name. Who are you?"
"I'm Mark Sown." Rey smiled and finished the last vegetable in her plate.
"Thank you for everything you've done, Mark. Without you, Ben would have probably died." "About that." He bit his lip. "I think you should go soon after your friend wakes up. It have nothing to do with you. I actually admire you. But...him... After what you told me, I could at least help him. But he is still the reason my wife went to the battlefield. I lived fearing him for a year. I don't want him around here."
Rey nodded, biting the inside of her right cheek..
"I understand. We will go as soon as you think he are able to."
"Well. If you really healed his leg, then what he needs is rest. As soon as he wakes up, you should be able to go." Rey stood up and declared she would go to her ship to find something to pay his services. Mark nodded and she went into the night.
