After School
Perhaps he was a bit too loud in calling her out for she came out in a sour mood. Her initial jabs quite uncharacteristic but she quickly toned down noticing him.
"Nah, just checking on you. Wanted to come meet ya in the hospital but couldn't. How have you been?" he asked her in a nonchalant tone. He was more comfortable with her, she didn't seem to be shy or intimidated by him and thus held her conversation normally. Plus they had hardly been chatty.
He went over to her and kept a packet at her table.
"This a get-well gift for you. Hope you like it. Good luck for the terms." he said in a low grumble and patted her shoulder before going out, he wasn't good in these situations and neither did he try.

As he got out of the school he lit up a smoke, calming the unease he felt over the whole string of events. Something bugged him greatly and he hoped that whoever the perpetrators were, they'll leave his family alone. He slowly walked to the mall mulling over the strange events that somehow seemed to be connected. He just had to figure out the motive before his family got involved.
Small wisp of smoke rose from his rather peculiar form as he slowly trudged to work. It was still a long day ahead.
