The Evidence Needed

Thane wheeled Brooke towards the car warmed up and waiting for them. She noticed Gilbert behind the wheel, but didn't see Hannah with him. She then recalled that she was back with Matthew, in some other city.

Wordlessly, Thane carried her into the back seat. She scooted over to create room for him, but he closed the door and sat in front with Gilbert.

"To the hangar." Thane said, right before resting his head against the seat and dozing off.

Brooke's eyes fell on the packs of medicines lying carelessly on the backseat, some tablets strewn across the car's backseat.

'He must've come here straight from the hospital.' She noted to herself, guilt reeling in.

The drive to the hangar was silent, and the jet ride home was even more silent, with Thane sitting next to her but not even acknowledging her existence.

She also noticed he didn't eat anything the entire flight, and when they arrived in the country, he took a separate car from hers.
