The clock was ticking so slowly and this left Jayden very frustrated. How could time pass so slowly?
The doctor had said that Pyro would be fine, but because his body was no longer young, it would take him quite a while to recover to normal, and even if he did, he wouldn't be able to work right away.
Or maybe not being able to work at all to be Jayden's bodyguard.
While Jayden himself didn't mind it. He didn't care whether Pyro could get well soon or not, but he certainly wanted the man he had known his whole life to get better.
Inside the hospital room, only the sound of the life supporting machines could be heard indicating that Pyro's heart was still functioning properly, backed up by the middle-aged man's heavy breathing.
Meanwhile, Jayden sat on the edge of Pyro's bed, holding his rough hand. He was about to fall asleep when someone suddenly and violently opened the hospital room door.
