Te probably hadn’t expected that the visitor would be Evan, of all people. Knowing the history between us, she just gave me a reassuring look before leaving 

“Don’t let it get to you,” she said softly. “Everything is just temporary.” 

I nodded, watching her walk out. 

Carrying a large bag of supplements, Evan stepped inside, his movements a bit akward. Before she left, Teri shot him a serious glance. 

“Just don’t be like your brother. Be a decent person 

Evan frowned, clearly uncomfortable with her directness, and didn’t respond 

Once the door clicked shut, I sat up against the headboard, taking a moment to really look at him. He looked older than his 13 years—probably because of his height and broad frame, but there was still a vulnerability in his face that made his age clear. 

He stood in place, holding the stuff he bought, looking a bit uneasy Ideared my throat. “Evan, why don’t you take a seat?

Looking at this young boy before me, I felt a complex mix of emotions—gratitude, confusion, a bit of fatigue. “Why did you come here? Did someone tell you to visit i 

He fidgeted, rubbing his nose. “I come to the hospital a lot because of my brother’s leg, It’s still in a cast. And I heard you were hurt, too, so I thought I’d check in.” 

The last thing he said was barely a whimper, almost inaudible. His youthful, handsome face turned quietly red Trealized that I didn’t have much to say to him

The air between as felt heavy with unspoken words, but I couldn’t bring myself to fill the vold Finally, Evan broke the ence, looking up at me with a hint of desperation in his eyes. “Ari, can you make up with my brother?** 

1 was taken aback, instinctively asking, “Why?” 

His face had a conflicted expression. After a moment, he spoke quietly, “My brother he’s not doing too well”

Evan shook his head. “No, it’s more than that. He’s just different now. He used to be so focused, working so hard to the company. But now he’s just…” Haledon, sugding to put his thoughts into words. 

I pursed my lips. I sort of knew Evan’s visit would the tolijah, but I never expected him to come to get us to reconcile 

After all, Evan was still young and didn’t really understand what was going on with Elijah. All he knew was that if he found me, maybe Elijah would get better. 

I shook my head gently. “Tami’t help him, EvanTM 

My answer hit him like a slap, his face turning red with frestation. “Why not? Didn’t you say you loved him more than anyone? He risked his life to save you! He broke his leg for you, and Bow he’s truck in a wheelchair!”
