Andin hastily lands her car on the doorstep of the house because she can't wait to hear Nora's response to Daren suddenly coming to school to meet her in person.
Nora enters Nora's room before she changes her clothes. "I have news for you!" andin said with an enthusiastic expression.
Nora stared at her brother's arrival which looked unusual. "What?"
"Daren's coming to school?"
Nora is confused? What does Daren mean for school? Why go to school? Her thought. He had just exchanged messages with Isaiah and began to feel calm from the entire conflict that was running through him, now he was afraid to hear from Andin.
"Why did he come to school?"
"She said her sister was injured by bullying."
Nora flabbergasted. That's not news he wants to hear. The last time he saw Micky, he felt there was nothing wrong with the girl. Then why did he suddenly hear that Micky was injured? Daren must be not doing well because of Micky's circumstances.
"Where's Micky?"
"At the hospital" Andin said. "I hope it's not as bad as I thought."
Nora immediately got up from her seat to prepare. He'll be going to the hospital soon to see how Micky is. Even though the girl had only met him a few times, she felt the need to look at his situation and make sure everything was okay.
"You want to go?" andin asked when she saw Nora wearing a coat while combing her hair from the mirror.
"Yes, I'm going to the hospital."
"For what?"
"Waiting Micky and Ravka."
"Can I come?" andin asked Nora.
"No, mom and dad won't let you." Nora remembers her brother is the favorite daughter in this family who can not go out of the house carelessly. Unlike Nora who has more freedom, it is not because she is more loved by her father and mother, but because her parents do not care about her.
Nora left the room to get to her car.
***
Arriving at the hospital, Nora immediately find out the whereabouts of Micky through reception. Micky and Ravka's room is a long distance away. Micky was treated on the second floor while Ravka was on the seventh.
Nora climbed the stairs until she reached the second floor. He hoped that after he got to Micky's room, there was no Daren there. If there was Daren, he was sure the atmosphere would become even more awkward.
Nora opened the door slowly. He peeked out of the crack to make sure there was no one but Micky. Light from within sprang up. Nora's a little tense.
The door opened perfectly and featured a gurney where Micky was lying. As Nora hoped, Micky was alone. But Micky's eyes close completely, Nora tries to convince herself that Micky is asleep instead of fainting.
Nora stepped her foot inside, then closed the door. Walk without making a sound towards the gurney. Looking at that innocent sleeping face. He sighed, who would dare to bully a cheerful girl like Micky?
Nora is surprised to see a bruise on Micky's face and his arm. The bullying that Micky is dealing with is physical violence, but who did it? And why did Daren blame his brother?
Nora doesn't want to wake Micky up, she just makes sure Micky is calm despite not looking all right.
Before leaving the place, he briefly touched the back of Micky's hand and smiled soothingly. "Reply recover!" the whisper was almost silent.
Nora flipped to leave, but she saw the figure of Daren standing pecking at the door, staring at her with a sad expression. Nora was shocked to see it.
"S-when were you there?" ask Nora stammering.
Daren closed the door. Walk towards Micky without looking at Nora.
"I'm sorry to see Micky" Nora said.
Daren stared at Micky's closed eyes in turn. Waiting for the eyelid to open, but not open since three hours ago.
Nora stood up in an awkward state. Daren didn't seem to have heard a single sentence since. He knew Daren was sad, but couldn't the man just look back at him? Suddenly Nora was upset.
Nora wants to get out of there. There is no point in saying condolences. After all, the goal of coming here had also been achieved.
"Thank you, it's coming." Daren spoke firmly and without tone.
Nora paused herself to flip. A smile on Nora's lips. This was what he had been waiting for since, the response from Daren. "Hey!" peekik Nora forced Daren to turn to her so that Daren knew she was trying to be serious. "I'm sorry about my brother. I'm sure it's not him who made Micky this way."
Daren frowned in confusion. "Your brother?"
Nora was flabbergasted to see the expression on Daren's face. She thought Daren knew all along about her family, including her brother. "Andin, you came to him at school. Andin told me."
Daren was fully paying attention towards Nora. "Andin is your brother?"
"Yes." Yeah."
Daren turned her eyes. There was guilt in his heart, as well as an unexpected feeling. "I-I didn't know you were brothers."
"Trust me, Andin really likes kids. He can't possibly bully Micky."
Daren was silent for a moment to seek calm. "Yes, maybe."
"Thank you for forgiving him." Nora smile.
Daren returned Nora's smile. "Thank you for coming."
Nora nodded in agreement. His smile was disappearing because it was time for him to leave this place.
"Where are you going?" daren asked as Nora stepped away from him.
"I have to go back."
"Don't!" a small voice screamed and vibrated from the direction of the gurney.
Nora and Daren turned their heads towards Micky who had already opened his eyes with beaming expressions. "Don't go yet!" micky orders it as if he's not sick at all.
Daren immediately sat on the bench to look at Micky closely. His smile was wide. Nora stood on the other side of the gurney. His expression was equally happy.
"I just woke up, but you were planning to leave me" Micky grumbled at Nora, laughing.
Micky looked at Daren and Nora one by one. Nothing could stop a happy smile rising on his face when the two of them were at the same vantage point.
"How are you feeling?" ask Nora to make sure.
"Sick," said Micky in a joking tone. "My head is about to break."
Nora and Daren look at each other.
"Oh no. I'm just kidding. Not that bad, though. It just hurts a little." Micky laughed again.
Daren has no confidence in Micky's expression trying to hide his pain. Daren knew what Mickry was feeling was far more painful than the words coming out of his mouth.
