It showcased happy memories that now seem distant, a time that was now very foreign to him.He glanced at the clock, realising time was slipping away. Finally, the sound of footsteps approached, and his mother entered the room. Her gentle smile quickly faded as she noticed the worry etched on Leonard's face. It wasn't every day he had a frown on his face, and seeing him this way sent alarm bells ringing in her head."Leonard, dear, what's the matter?" Helene asked, concerned about lacing her voice. She settled into a plush armchair opposite him, her eyes filled with motherly affection and curiosity.Taking a deep breath, Leonard gathered his thoughts before speaking. "Mom, something strange

He cleared his throat, catching her attention."Hey, Mom," he began a hint of excitement in his voice. "I wanted to talk to you about something important."Helene looked up, set her bag aside, and focused her attention on her son. "Of course, Leonard. What's on your mind? I hope it isn't about the death threat stuff?""No Mom, not that. I've been invited to Daniel's birthday party this weekend," Leonard said with a smile, hoping to share his enthusiasm with his mother.Her expression changed, and a touch of concern crept into her eyes. "Oh, Daniel? The son of that family who lives down the street?"Leonard nodded, anticipating his mother's apprehension. "Yes, that's him.

As Leonard crouched behind a cluster of dense bushes, his heart pounded in his chest, matching the chaos that unfolded around him. The sounds of panicked screams and rapid gunfire still went through the party grounds, creating an atmosphere of sheer terror.

He knew that help had arrived or was at least drawing near. ''Thank the heavens.'' he sighed.

As he entered the sterile, hushed corridors, he felt a mix of relief and trepidation. He located Daniel's room number and made his way there, preparing himself for the sight of his friend in pain. Entering the hospital room, Leonard found Daniel lying in bed, his face still reflecting the shock of the traumatic experience. Bandages adorned his arms and a visible bruise stained his cheek, a painful reminder of the events that unfolded. Despite the injuries, Daniel managed a weak smile as he saw Leonard. "Hey, buddy," Leonard said, his voice filled with concern. "How are you holding up?" Daniel winced slightly but mustered a reply, "Hey, Leonard. It's been rough, but I'm just grateful to be alive."

You're my friend, and I wanted to be here for you. How are you feeling? Do you need anything else before I leave?" Daniel's gaze shifted slightly, his expression tinged with a hint of regret. "Actually, there's something I need to discuss with you. As much as I would love for this visit to continue, I have to go back home soon. My work demands my attention, and I don't want to neglect my responsibilities." Leonard sighed. Daniel nodded understandingly, his tone empathetic. "I completely understand, Leonard.
