The sharp, clean scent of the hospital still lingers on your clothes as Nico and Will lead you down the softly lit hallway, their expressions layered with a solemn, relief-edged dread. The diagnosis—a word that changes everything—hangs unspoken in the space between you. They shepherd you into the car, where the city blurs into streaks of light outside the window, carrying you back to the familiar walls of home. The front door closes with a soft, final click, enclosing the three of you in a hushed and tense sanctuary. Nico settles beside you on the couch, his fingers trembling faintly as they brush against yours. Will remains standing nearby, his blue eyes holding a softness that can’t quite mask their grave seriousness. The moment to speak the truth has arrived.
