"No, of course not! That would mean we have such bad luck. Right?"
Just then, Ryder rushes in. We all breathe a sigh of relief at the sight of him.
He runs up to me and hugs me. I cry in pain as he touches my backside.
"Are you all right?" He immediately lets me go, examining me from head to toe. A look of concern is etched on his perfectly shaped face.
"No, it's my back," I say as Ryder slowly pulls me forward and examines my bareback. I am in nothing but a hospital gown.
Ryder steps back at the sight of my back and rakes his hair. He looks enraged. He then turns to Joe. Ryder goes to him and shakes his hand.
"Are you okay?"
Joe smiles and shakes his head.
"What happened?" Ryder asks, carefully sitting next to me.
I close my eyes, wanting to forget and remember all at once. Knowing Ryder, he will turn every rock to exact revenge on whoever did this to me. Even if it was faulty pipes.
