My face felt hot all the way down to my neck.

I shook my head quickly, hoping Eric wouldn’t notice. My heartbeat was loud in my ears, and my breath came out uneven. I kept my eyes on the blanket, pretending I was tired or dizzy or anything except what I really was…..panicking.

“I’m fine,” I said too fast.

Under the covers, I tried to push Frank’s hand away. I didn’t dare move much, Eric was right there. If he saw even a small movement, he would ask questions. And if he asked questions, I

    ☾♡ Eric ♡☽Hatred has always come easily to me.People liked to say brothers should love each other, protect each other, grow up side by side like two trees from the same root. But Frank and I had never grown like that. From the moment we were children, he stood taller, brighter, louder than me. He was the one teachers praised. The one elders smiled at. The one girls whispered about in class. Even on Valentine’s Day, when everyone was supposed to get the same cheap chocolate from classmates, Frank’s desk would be buried under gifts while mine stayed almost empty.I learned early what it meant to live in someone else’s shadow.Frank didn’t even need to try. He was just… better. Better grades. Better at sports. Better face. Better voice. Better luck. When he laughed, people listened. When I spoke, people compared me to him. “Why can’t you be more like your brother?” was a sentence I heard so often it became part of my bones.So I learned something else instead. I learned how to smile

    𝓣𝓲𝓶I stared at the ceiling for a long time before I finally spoke.“Thank you.”The word came out small, almost weak, but it carried everything I had been holding inside. Frank turned his head slightly and looked at me.“For what?” he asked.I swallowed and forced myself to look at him. My heart beat faster, not from fear this time, but from the weight of what I was about to admit. “I know it was you who saved me. In that situation… it could only have been you.”He straightened from where he had been leaning and shifted fully into the chair, resting his arms on the armrests like he was settling in for a serious talk. His expression didn’t change much, but I could see something sharp behind his eyes.“How can you be so sure it was me and not someone else?” he asked.“I know Eric very well,” I said slowly. “He…” My voice caught in my throat and I had to pause. “…he is not the kind of person who would do something like that.”Frank raised one eyebrow. “Oh? Are you saying it’s imposs

    𝓣𝓲𝓶I dreamed of a park.It was strange, because I had not been to a park in years, and yet the place felt familiar the moment I saw it. The sky was pale blue, the kind of blue that only existed in childhood memories. The trees were tall and thin, their shadows stretched long across the ground. There was a sandbox in the middle of the park, and the sand looked warm and soft, like it had just been touched by sunlight.I stood there, but my feet did not touch the ground.It was like I was floating above everything. In the sandbox, there was a little boy.He sat alone with his back bent forward, both hands busy shaping a small sandcastle. He worked carefully, slowly piling sand into a fragile tower. His clothes were old and dusty, and his hair was too long, falling into his eyes. No one sat near him. No one spoke to him.He looked very lonely.Not the kind of loneliness that came from being quiet or just because you want to, it was the kind that came from being pushed aside.A group o

    ꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂I stood in the hallway longer than I meant to after Tim told me to get out.For once, I didn’t feel like laughing it off. I leaned against the wall with my arms crossed, staring at the pale green tiles like they had personally offended me. A man shouldn’t argue with a patient, I told myself. He was hurt. He was tired and he was emotional. I had pushed him too far and I knew it.Still, the image of his flushed face and the way he looked at me before yelling wouldn’t leave my head.There was something in his eyes then, something close to fear and anger mixed together, and for reasons I didn’t want to examine too closely, it bothered me more than it should have.I exhaled slowly and straightened. Fine. I would go back in. I would check on him properly and then leave. No teasing, no more games. Just make sure he was settling in okay and don't have any more complaints.When I reached the door of his ward, I saw Laura.She was standing directly in front of it, as if guard

    𝓣𝓲𝓶“Get out,” I said suddenly.Frank looked at me as if he hadn’t heard me correctly. “What?”“I said get out,” I repeated, louder this time. My voice shook, but I forced myself to sound firm. “You should leave.”He studied my face for a moment, his eyes sharp and unreadable. “You’re kicking me out now?”“Yes,” I said. “I need to be alone.”Frank didn’t move right away. He leaned back in the chair and crossed his arms, looking far too relaxed for someone who had just been told to leave. “Is this because of what I said about Eric?”“No,” I snapped. “It’s because you never take anything seriously.”He laughed softly. “That’s not true.”“Everything with you feels like a joke,” I said. “Even when it shouldn’t be, especially when it shouldn’t be.”For a moment, neither of us spoke. I could hear the faint sound of machines from the hallway and the distant voices of nurses. Frank’s gaze stayed on me, steady and intense, like he was trying to see through my anger.“Fine,” he finally said.

    𝓣𝓲𝓶Frank leaned against the wall near the window, one leg crossed over the other, like he had all the time in the world. The room was quiet again after Eric stormed out. My heart was still racing from everything that had happened, from the shouting, from the touching, from the way Frank acted like this was all some kind of joke.“You look confused,” Frank said.“I am,” I replied honestly. “What car accident were you talking about?”He raised an eyebrow. “That’s what you’re stuck on?”“Yes,” I said. “Since when did I get into a car accident with you?”Frank let out a short laugh and walked closer to my bed. “Obviously, I couldn’t tell people you were in the hospital because you were kidnapped. Do you think that would end well?”My stomach twisted at the word kidnapped.“So I made something up,” he continued. “A small car accident. Nothing major, people understand accidents. They don’t understand warehouses and knives.”I stared at him. “So Eric thinks I was injured in your car?”“
