"Gates, they are here for you" Jena; a rehab worker said with a beam to Alexander Gates whose mother; Mirabel and friend; Avia were waiting for him outside with a car. He got up, packed his stuff and walked out of his confined room. As he walked down the hallway, the rehab workers wished him a clean life, away from hard drugs. He got to the door and saw his mother and Avia. He dropped all his stuff on the ground as Avia rushed to give him a hug.
"No hugs for me ma?" Alexander asked smiling but she wasn't having it
"She's really upset Alex, let me help you with your stuff" Avia suggested, carrying some of Alex luggages. They put it in the boot afterwards his mother started the car and the journey back home began.
The ride back home was quite awkward as there was too much silence. So Avia decided to break it.
"So Alex, how was the rehab centre, you made any new friends?"
