"Mom can I go outside and play with the other kids?"

"No, you should be studying."

"But that's all I do,"

"Exactly." She responded, "It's for your own good." she smiled, running her hand through his hair.

"Dad says I should be able to play with the other kids." he responded, She looked at him and was about to snap at him in frustration, She stopped herself and looked him in the eyes.

"I'm not in the mood to argue with you, Go to your room.'' She responded, trying to keep a softness in her voice. He glared at her and he stomped his foot. His eyes glistening with frustration. The kitchen light reflecting in the glasses he wore on his face. /He even looks like a nerd/ She thought to herself, /why can he just accept that he isnt like normal kids/

"I dont want to go to my room." He retorted. She tightened her grip on the pan she was holding, her frustration showing through.

"YOU WILL DO WHAT I TELL YOU! I AM YOUR MOTHER." She screamed at him. Shock lit up his face and tears started to form in his eyes. She felt instantly guilty. "Oh no, Please dont cry." she said walking over to him cupping his cheek in her hand. He sobbed quietly. "Shh Honey it's okay." She tried to comfort him. "I'm very sorry I yelled at you, Okay?" She apologized. He let out another sad sob. She hugged him close and rocked him back and forth in her arms. He sniffled and looked at her.

"Did you really mean that?" He asked.

"No of course no sweetheart." She responded caringly. He sniffled and hugged her back. She smiled. "You can go outside and play." She said.

"Thanks!" He smiled and turned around and ran outside. She smiled at him and went back to washing the dishes.

"SOCKS WAKE UP!"

"PLEASE!"

Socks attempted to open his eyes but they felt stuck and he couldn't. Someone was shaking his shoulder. He attempted to move but couldn't. He wanted to yell at them to leave him alone but he couldn't speak. He felt like he was floating in the air and he tried to twist around to actually find out if he was in the air.

"Is he okay?" he heard someone ask. It sounded like Blaza.

"I don't know, I haven't seen anything like this!" A voice exclaimed, it sounded like Meme.

"You say you're a doctor but you weren't even in college when this happened." He heard another person say. He quickly identified the person as Ally.

"I was supposed to start that day." Meme retorted. Socks felt something tighten around his arm.

"Hey, do you want those bandages tighter?" He heard Blaza ask sarcastically. He heard someone pacing around on the wooden floor.

"Were almost to New Orleans, He needs to be awake to move!" Ally shouted. "If you can't figure out what's going on I'll get Laff, who actually has some experience with this." She said. Socks heard Meme inhale.

"It's not my fault that the infection chose to start when it did!" Meme snapped. Socks heard Ally snort and then he heard footsteps and a door open and close, signifying that someone had left.

"Dont worry about it Meme, I think you're doing alright." Socks heard Blaza say.

"It's a coma." Meme said out of the blue. Socks felt panic fill his chest. A coma? Meme's gotta be wrong right? Socks wondered, he felt extremely worried.

"Are you sure?" Blaza asked.

"No." Meme responded . Blaza let out a sigh. Socks then heard the door open and heard two sets of footsteps.

"Laff, Do you want to see if you know the issue?" Socks heard meme ask.

"That's why I'm here." Socks identified that as Laff's British accent.He felt someone move away while another person leaned in close. "I can't see anything wrong physically. Plus he was alright yesterday," Socks heard Laff observe. "Did he come in contact with anything like spitter acid or boomer bile?" Laff asked. There was a silence that followed. Socks wished he could say what the issue probably was. He remembered that he was down in the burger place, he had fallen from the ceiling which had hurt in itself and then Dino thought that Socks was a hunter, I mean socks couldn't really blame him. So he had shot at a propane tank that had been nearby. The explosion had hit Socks, knocking him into the ceiling. Why would he pass out almost 12 hours later? Socks tried to move his fingers and found that he could. He attempted to open his eyes and that had seemed like a challenge within itself.

"He's opening his eyes!" Socks heard meme exclaim.

"We can also see that." Blaza responded sarcastically again. Socks widened his eyes to the fullest they could go. He attempted to speak.

"Hello?" He rasped out.

"Okay he's alright!" Meme breathed in relief

"I'm not okay!" Socks shouted, not even realizing it.

He sat in his room sitting hunched over a book flipping through the pages looking carefully at the information laid out infront of him. Occsainlly turning to the notebook that sat at his side to write something down that he might need to remember. He yawned and looked at his electric alarm clock that sat on his bedside table. He sighed,

"What's the point of doing this anyways?" he wondered aloud. "I'm only 11, I feel like I'm in highschool studying for the biggest exam of my life." he muttered. He looked at the ceiling leaning back in his chair. His pen was running low on ink and he had run out of lead in his mechanical pencil. The reason that he was using a pen in the first place. He decided he would go to sleep since it was almost 12, way past his bedtime. He had just gotten into the grind. He knew his mother would disapprove. Or find some way to disapprove. She was like that sometimes.

"SOCKS ARE YOU OKAY?" he heard someone shout.

"Huh what?" Socks muttered his head hurt.

"Dont do that to me Socks." Meme breathed out in relief. "You've scared me atleast 5 times in the last 24 hours" Socks chuckled and stood up.

"Sorry." He said "And how have I scared you?" he asked.

"You've gone like unresponsive 6 times today." Meme responded. "Promise me it wont happen again," Meme said.

"I cant really promise you anything but i will do my best."

"No Socks i need you to promise me."

"Fine I promise."
