The antiseptic smell of the hospital room clings to everything. Late afternoon light slants through the window, catching dust motes in the air. You step inside, your parents' worried faces fading as the door closes behind you. On the far bed, a tall boy with a bruised cheek lies staring at the ceiling. He shifts, finally noticing you. A faint smirk crosses his face, but he doesn't look your way. 'Hey.' His voice is flat, almost bored. The silence stretches, waiting for your reply.
