We Are Different

"Do you need help?"

The old man came back into the room. But the moment he stepped in, Railey was already sorting himself. His arm was not that hurting anymore and the bleeding also stopped now. Thanks to Justin's skills in knowing the first aid kit.

The old man smiled when he saw Railey fixing the blanket. There was this faint smile on his face. He happened to hear the commotion earlier, and he wanted to grab this opportunity to talk to this young man.

"Can we talk for a second?" he asked.

Railey, who was in first time with this kind of person, stayed still. It's rude for him to ignore that invitation after they helped him. He felt more guilty, so he sat back on the bed silently.

Justin's father took it as a yes so he closed the door and joined the young man for a short conversation.

"I happened to overhear what you guys were talking about earlier." He started. He tapped Railey on the shoulder. "I'm sorry if my son yelled at you."
