The next day came. It was very hot morning. Ian was awake already. Dark circle could be seen near his eyes. He hadn't eaten anything since yesterday. Cian was also awake.
He was thinking again. Thinking about his illness then his past. His reaction changed while thinking about this.
Ian saw his change of reaction too. So he quickly come near him and started talking.
He said, " Cian, are you okay? Is something bothering you? U can tell me that if you want. "
Cian didn't respond. He just kept thinking while he furrowed his eyebrows. Then Ian touched his forehead. He was burning, he really had a high fever. Ian didn't call the doctor. He just kept calling Cian over and over.
On the other side, Cian who was thinking, was snapped back into senses. He woke up from his thoughts. He said to Ian, " You don't have to worry. It happens often. I am used to it. You don't need to worry about me. It's a part of my life. "
Ian said,"Can I know that why does it happen and what are your thought ? "
Cian sighed longingly and then he said, " It's a long story. Maybe I will tell you later, but I am sure that I will."
Ian said, " Okay, then. You have to say this after going to home. "
Cian sighed again cause he wanted to share this but he also doesn't want.
Ian didn't say anything cause he knew that Cian couldn't hide a single thing from him or anyone. If he hadn't fallen sick, he could but now that he became sick, he cannot hide himself any longer.
******************************
It was already afternoon , Cian was released and Ian took him to the house. Ian was the one who drived the car. Soon, they arrived at home. They entered the building and Ian entered the kitchen first. He just drank water when he was at the hospital. He had also become weak.
Soon, he fried eggs and vegetables and took them to Cian's room. Cian was weak also. He ate all that things and said "thanks " to Ian.
Ian went to kitchen and brought his lunch with water. He gave water to Cian and sat beside him. Then he asked Cian, " Should we begin the story? "
Cian sighed longingly and said, " Ok. "
A vision appeared before his eyes....
A boy could be seen near a tree while other children's were playing. The kid was sick. So no one came close him and stayed away from him. They were all around the age of 6. They were playing hide and seek.
The boy came close to one of the kids and said, " Can I join the game? "
The other childrens said, " Nah, you aren't welcome. You little dummy. "
"Go play with your father. " said another kid.
" His mother left him because she knew that he is a poke. " said the previous one.
"He cannot do anything nor does he know how to play. " said a little girl.
Another kid arrived at the scene and he said, " Oh my! Are you all bulling this kid? Nah.....
You shouldn't have done this....."
The boy who was bullied stared at the newly arrived boy with teary eyes.
Sensing his gaze the boy said, " As your leader, you shouldn't have done this things without me. You could take my permission. Do you think I wouldn't give you the permission ? Let's continue the bulling which you didn't even start properly. "

Cian stayed calm for a minute and said ," Maybe I will tell you later. I am not feeling well today. I just healed so I need a few days to recover properly. "
" Ok ." said Ian.
