A chain of notifications popped up one after another. I was about to check my status when...
"Alan!"
Bob came running toward me and hugged me tightly the moment I turned around.
"Thank you, bro… for saving my life," he said, his voice trembling. He was crying, full-on sobbing while squeezing me like a teddy bear. I was completely at a loss for words, so I just awkwardly patted his back. That's when I noticed, his back was already healed, like nothing had happened. Only the large X-shaped holes on the back of his shirt remained.
"I'm your friend, Bob. Of course I'd save you."
He finally let go of the hug and looked at me with teary eyes. He sniffled and wiped his nose with his sleeve.
