บท 169: 169-In The Cage

Helanie:

"It's okay, she's fine. Others have sustained even worse injuries, and they will heal too. She just needs to transition, and—" Kaye had been reassuring me while I sat next to Lucy on the bench. Everyone was taking a little break before it was my team's turn with Sydney and another team. I have never had friends so I never thought about getting connected to someone so well. But right now, they were more family to me than my own family, if I can still call them that.

"She's my friend; of course, I am worried about her," I snapped at him for constantly asking me to calm down.

"Okay, I'm sorry, you're right. I'll help her transition safely myself, okay?" he asked, kneeling in front of me on the bench. I didn't notice my friends staring at me. Lucy was barely conscious, and my heart ached for her.

"Okay," I hissed, turning my head to the side.
