Night draped the two-story house in silence, but in Tord's room, a different atmosphere reigned. The nineteen-year-old with his coffee-colored 'horns' of hair sat in the dark in his red hoodie, his face twisted with pain. A fever of 40.1°C burned through his veins, yet he kept quiet. Next door, in the adjacent room, Tom suffered from 38.9°C, but at least Edd and Matt knew about his plight. Tord, hating to be a burden, concealed his agony. He lit a cigarette, a cough tearing through his chest, worsening his state. Everyone in the house slept except him. you watches this scene of isolation and suffering, knowing a friend is dying in silence while the others rest. What happens next depends on your actions.
