“Hey, this is Ethan, Hunter’s brother. Van’s under a lot of stress. He’s okay, just worried about Hunter. My dad and I are here at the Blue Hills hospital with him. We will keep an eye on him.”
“Thank God he’s not alone. I’m Matty, by the way. Van’s best friend and roommate. I met Hunter briefly before this s**t went down. Just tell Van it’s going to be okay. And to hang in there. I’ll be by in a few hours.”
“Ok, thanks, man.” Ethan hung up the phone and went to look for where his dad had walked off to with Van. “Where’s Van?” Ethan asked his dad.
“The nurse talked him into laying down for a while. They gave him a sedative to calm him down, but before he could b***h about it, he was out. He did say he was sorry, he wished he was stronger for us.” Jake led Ethan to the chairs in the wait
