Then he pulled away...
After a few hours... just after 10 p.m. when Leo's phone vibrated in his pocket... He pulled it out, expecting it to be one of his parents or his uncle checking in... But the screen showed No name...
So he ignored it. A minute later, it vibrated again. He ignored it again. On the third call, he let out a quiet, frustrated sigh, stood up, and stepped out into the empty, dimly lit hallway, closing the door softly behind him.
"Hello, who is this?" he answered, his voice was very harsh...
"Finally, for God's sake!" It was Rika's voice, loud and annoyed. "I've been calling you guys all day. I texted Sarah like five times. What the hell is going on? Did you get to her parents' place okay?"
"Yeah, we're here," he lied, leaning his head back against the hospital wall...
"Okay… so why are you ignoring me? Why isn't Sarah answering?" Rika pressed him quickly, not letting up. "Is everything alright? You guys were acting weird when you left."
