the rest of the night they spoiled me with junk food from a nearby gas station. i didn't mind if i had to be honest, i got some ice cream there and it was pretty good.
skull and mask really wanted to go visit army, so we finally went back to the hospital. i tensed when we walked inside of the building, and into his room.
his parents weren't in the room, so it was safe to be in here. i couldn't look at army.
skull and mask were looking around the room at the bouquet of yellow lilies. i know for a fact that flower is army's least favorite, and the flower symbolizes death.
his mom walked into the room. she was kind and talked to us, me mostly. she had a stuff bunny in her hands for him, setting it by the flowers.
i got to know her. army's mom was born out of the country like me, except she's indian. army is mixed race, but he looks more like his father. the only thing he and his mother had in common is their bright warm orange eyes.
she told us she was glad army has friends, she was worried for him when he insisted on moving out at a younger age.
before i knew it i fell asleep in his hospital room.
