Together For… 21B

Noelle knocked on Hannah's room door, Otto beside here. With how worried Hannah had been, they'd thought it was best to tell her in person. The door opened. "Is Hannah here?"

Seconds later, Hannah was by the door. "Did you hear back? Is he with them? Is he okay?" Worry very clear on her face and in her voice.

Noelle smiled. "He's fine. His dad picked him up."

"How did he sound? Did he sound okay?" Her worry not completely gone.

"He wasn't laughing. But he was okay. He's going to be a way for a week. Knowing him, it'll be hard to get in touch with him." Hannah still looked worried. "He'll be back soon."

Otto nodded and finally decided to speak. "Yeah. He's with his brother, his friend, his e- dad. He just needs to be with family."

Hannah nodded. "Thanks you guys." "Want to come hang with us?"

She smiled and nodded. "Yeah. Sure." She went back into her room.

Noelle nudged Otto. "His ex?"

"It almost slipped out."
