“Hey Veronica.”, he said ina. Gentle tone. “Should we get going?”
“Hey Veronica.”, he said ina. Gentle tone. “Should we get going?”
Veronica nodded. "Is he your…" Leah shook her head. "We met like a half an hour ago. " Veronica nodded as Leah gently lifted up her arm to see the gash running down her forearm. "Mom out?"
" Yup. "
As he drove, Rafael cast worried looks at the girls through the rear view mirror, frightened for the little one.
Veronica leaned her head on Leah's shoulder. "Hold on Bubba we're almost there." Leah whispered.
Rafael pulled into the hospital parking, opening the door quickly for the girls.
Leah helped Veronica out and they went around to the E.R. where a nurse was already waiting. "Leah, as much as you hate this, I'm going to have to ask you to wait on the waiting room with your….friend?" Before Leah could answer she has already disappeared with Veronica. Leah sighed as the two went to the waiting room. " She's right, I do hate this. "
Rafael tentatively placed a hand in her shoulder. “She’s in good hands, I can pretty much guarantee that the people here are great.”, he tried to comfort.
Leah have Rafael a small smile. "Yeah, I know. I know a lot of the staff after all the trips I took here, and later just coming here to hang out with the kids and help out in any way I can. It's really fun to see the joy on the children's faces I come to see them. And once again I'm rambling. I'll shut up now. Sorry again."
“I like it when people ramble.”, he assured her, sitting down. “And That sounds pretty special.”
Leah sat down beside Rafael. "Have you ever had to come to the hospital? Like for something other than a checkup. "
Rafael suddenly went quiet. “Yeah.”, he admitted softly, voice almost at a whisper.
Leah nodded knowingly. "Okay." She said, falling silent, not wanting to pry. " Sorry, that wasn't a good question. "
(Goodnight I gtg)
He exhaled slowly. “Not your fault, I just—- my brother—-“ his voice broke.
(Aww, okay night!)
Leah out her hand on Rafael's arm. "Hey. It's okay." She said softly, gently rubbing his arm.
He nodded slowly, swallowing. His eyes were unfocused, and he eventually had to slap himself to snap out of it. “Sorry.”
"Happens to me sometimes too. It's all good."
(Hi! I'm here!!!)
(HHHIIIIII)
Hunter rolled down the window, handing the boy money as he grabbed the McDonalds bag from him.
“Have a good day, sir,” said the young teenager, smiling politely as he reached out to give Hunter his change. Hunter nodded, returning his smile.
“Keep the change,” Hunter told the boy, watching with amusement as the boy’s eyes widened in disbelief. Hunter wished the boy a good day and rolled up his window before driving off to Kenzie’s place to drop her off.
"That was really nice of you," Kenzie stated softly. "To do that. I bet you father wouldn't have done that, hm? Proof that you're not like him…"
(So what do you think of 'Reah'?)
(So what do you think of 'Reah'?)
(Still like them!!! XD)
(Lol. I should go to bed now……so g'night!)
(Lol. I should go to bed now……so g'night!)
(Aw, okay! 'Night!)
Rafael looked away, clearing his throat. “Your sister, what high school does she go to?”
Hunter laughed, shaking his head.
“You’re the best, you know that, right?” Hunter chuckled. “Noah believes these kinds of things are only a waste of money. I started doing this just to piss him off. Then I realized I liked doing it, liked seeing the happy faces of people who took ordinary jobs.”
Kenzie smiled, glad that she could make her boyfriend happy.
"I like that about you, you know that?" she asked, her cheeks colored slightly.
Hunter grinned.
"Just like?" he teased, looking at Kenzie for a second before turning his attention back on the road. He made a turn, not looking forward to not seeing Kenzie again for a few more days.
Kenzie rolled her eyes, shaking her head.
"You know what I mean," she said, turning so that she was facing Hunter a bit more. "It's one of the things that I like about you, which, overall, is why I love you."
"I love you, too," Hunter grinned before heaving a sigh. "Ugh, we're here at your place."
"If I didn't have class tomorrow," Kenzie groaned, "I would ask if there was any chance I could just come back with you."
