Numbness and Silence

Me: Mike please calm down.

I hug him to try to calm him down. His muscles become a little less tense. I Hope that helped.

Kahn: Can you guys please help me. I have lost feeling in my leg. Please can I stay here?

Kahn’s voice sounded like he was trying to hold back some kind of pain he was feeling.

Me: What happened?
Mike: Who cares?
Me: Mike, we can at least care a little I mean he didn’t hurt me.
Mike: But he almost did and if I didn’t come then he would have.
Me: But we can’t just leave him out there.
Mike: Sure we can.
Kahn: Mike really didn’t want to hurt her. Demi, you know I didn’t really mean to hurt you right? Common I just wanted a little action.

I didn’t say a word. Wanted a little action? Thunder clapped almost to try to level out our silence.
