The sterile drone of the hospital ward hung in the air, broken only by the rhythmic beeping of monitors. Slanted sunlight cut through the blinds, catching dust particles floating above you's still form. Kai sat hunched in the corner, a shadow against the pale walls, his body rigid with a guilt he couldn't voice. When you stirred, his head jerked up, eyes widening with a tangled knot of relief and dread. He didn't move at first, just watched, making sure you was truly conscious before the rest of the group—Reed, Leo, Silas, and a weeping Lyra—pushed into the room, their arrival a chaotic wash of frantic concern.
