Family Reunion

We sat there for a few minutes in silence. I hear a knock at the door.

"Who is it?"

"It's Everett and Akira, can we come in?"

I look down at Luckus. He seemed to know what I was going to ask because he nodded his head as he looked at me before putting his head back down.

"Come in." Everett opens the door as Akira runs up to us.

"Brother!"

"Hi, there."

"How are you?"

"I've been better."

"Are you hurting?"

"My back hurts a little but other than that I'm fine."

"I was told that your back was the most damaged."

"It was." Akira climbs onto me and hugs Luckus.

"I missed you."

"I missed you too."

"When will you come home?"

"I don't know." I clear my throat. Everyone looks at me.

"Luckus I'm going to set you down on the bed, ok?"

"Why?"

"I need to get a few things figured out."

Luckus looks down with a pout on his face as set him on the bed. I walk to Everett.

"Everett."

"Yes, sir."

"Where is Dr. Danial?"

"Grabbing a few things for Luckus."

"Dr. Sanna?"

"She had something today." Dr. Danial comes into the room.

"Dr. Danial, can you take care of those two?"

"Yes, sir."

"Then we will be leaving." Right when I finished I heard Luckus.

"You will be back, right?" I turn to face him.

"Yes, I will."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, kid." I leave with Everett behind me.

"What do you need done?"

"How is the thing I asked to be made?"

"I don't know, sir."

"I want you to go cheek, I will be in my office when you find out."

"Yes, sir."
