The hallway reeked of antiseptic and too much silence. Noah had never liked hospitals, not even when they were necessary. But today, the sterile white walls felt like an accusation.
After running through the whole hall way, He stopped in front of Room 305. The chart on the door read
: Joshua Vale. Observation.
His fingers hovered over the handle.
He hadn’t cried when they called. He hadn’t cried when the officer said, "your brother tried to kill himself."
He just drove. Fast. Heart pounding like it was trying to escape the truth.
NOAH VALE
*pushed the door open*
Noah sat by the window, wrapped in a pale-blue hospital gown. The light cast long shadows across his face. He looked smaller than Jonah remembered. As if something essential had been siphoned out of him.
Noah stepped in and closed the door gently behind him.
NOAH VALE
*breathing heavily*
trying his best to act calm
NOAH VALE
You always liked the rain, huh? Said it made the world quieter.
Joshua blinked slowly but didn’t turn. His gaze fixed on the Outside, droplets snaked down the glass like transparent veins.
noah moved closer and pulled the chair in the room next to the bed. He sat with his elbows on his knees.
NOAH VALE
*Muttered* You scared the shit out of me

NOAH VALE
*running his hands through his hair*
NOAH VALE
I’m not leaving, you know.
NOAH VALE
Not until you say something. Even if it’s to tell me to get lost.
Joshua's voice came, dry and faint
JOSHUA VALE
There’s nothing to say.
NOAH VALE
Do you even know how worried I was??
NOAH VALE
I ran through the whole city...! Why-
Joshua finally turned to him. His eyes were dull but sharp at the edges—like he’d sanded away anything soft.
JOSHUA VALE
You want me to say why I did it?
Noah held his breath in anticipation
JOSHUA VALE
I didn't do it for attention.
JOSHUA VALE
I Didn’t do it because of some breakup. Or grades. Or... any of the things they tell you to look for in pamphlets.
Joshua looked away again after finishing the last words
JOSHUA VALE
Sometimes... it just gets too loud.
JOSHUA VALE
Even the silence
Joshua's last words made Noah pause at his place, did he do it because he was too lonely? Because noah, his only family, left him on that big and empty mansion on his own?
Noah looked down at the floor. The cracks in the tile. The shoelaces he hadn’t tied properly. Anything but his brother’s face.
But he has to be strong, at least in this moment
NOAH VALE
We'll figure it out... everything will be fine
NOAH VALE
I'll come back to live with you once you are discharged from the hospital
NOAH VALE
We will live together like before..ok?
