Whizz's eyes widened, and she reached out to hold Liya's hand. "Oh my gosh, Liya. I had no idea. I'm so sorry. Who's Samuel" Liya nodded, blinking back tears. "And the worst part is, the doctor said he may never walk properly again. He might never be able to work." Whizz's grip on Liya's hand tightened, her face a mix of concern and empathy. "That's a lot to take in, Liya. I can't even imagine what you're going through." Tears welled up in Liya's eyes, and she wiped them away with the back of her hand. "I don't know what to do, Whizz. The surgery he needs is so expensive, and I don't have that kind of money." Whizz leaned in closer, her voice soft and comforting. "You're not alone in this, Liya. We'll figure something out together. Friends support each other, no matter what." Liya managed a small smile, feeling a glimmer of hope. "Thank you, Whizz. It means a lot." "Hey Liya, what if I accompany you to the hospital tomorrow?" Whizz asked, a warm smile on

"Excuse me, Doctor," Liya began, her voice tinged with a hint of anxiety. "We were hoping for some clarity about Samuel's situation. You mentioned yesterday that he might wake up today, but he hasn't shown any signs yet." The doctor, focused on his work, looked up and sighed. "I understand your concern, but you must remember that medicine is not always predictable. We do our best to provide estimates based on the information we have." "But what if he doesn't wake up today?" Whizz interjected, her eyes reflecting her worry. The doctor leaned back in his chair and adjusted his glasses. "There's always a level of uncertainty, especially with cases like these. Samuel's body is healing, and we are monitoring his progress closely. However, I did mention 'probability.' It means there's a chance he could wake up today, but it's not a guarantee." Liya clenched her fists, frustration creeping into her voice. "But we need answers. We need to know what's happening."

Liya turned to him, her voice soft with understanding. "Samuel, I know this isn't easy, but you're not alone. We're here for you." Samuel offered her a grateful smile. "I appreciate that, Liya. It's just... a lot to take in." Whizz nodded in agreement. "We know. But remember, you've already shown incredible strength." As they neared Samuel's house, a mixture of emotions swirled within him. The familiar surroundings seemed different now, as if he were seeing them through new eyes. He thought about the challenges that lay ahead – learning to navigate daily life with his new leg, facing the curious stares of others, and finding a way to adapt. Liya's voice broke through his thoughts. "Samuel, you're resilient. And you have a community of friends who believe in you." They reached Samuel's front door, and he hesitated before unlocking it. The weight of uncertainty hung in the air, but he knew he couldn't stay inside forever. With a deep breath, he pu

Inside the police station, they quickly found an officer to speak to. Samuel explained the situation, his words rushed with anxiety. The officer took notes, his expression growing serious as he listened to the details. "We'll do everything we can to help," the officer assured Samuel. As they left the police station, Liya's grip on the steering wheel tightened. She could feel the tension in the car, a mix of fear. "We won't stop until we find them," Whizz said, his voice firm. Samuel nodded, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. "I won't rest until they're safe." Liya glanced at Samuel, her eyes filled with empathy. "We're in this together, Samuel. We'll find them." Samuel felt a surge of gratitude for his friends. Their unwavering support gave him strength when he needed it most. As they continued their journey, Liya's driving remained focused and determined. She weaved through traffic with a skill that surprised both Samuel and Whizz. The urgency in her movements mirrored t

To his surprised, the room wasn't empty. Whizz was there, fresh from the shower, wrapped in a towel. But as the door opened, the unexpected sound caused her to turn, her startled expression mirrored in Samuel's eyes. Their eyes are locked, an awkward silence settling between them. Samuel's concern for Whizz battled with the shock of seeing her in such an unexpected situation. Whizz's face flushed with embarrassment as the towel slipped from her grasp. A mixture of emotions swirled in the air – concern, surprise, and a touch of awkwardness. Samuel's voice finally broke the silence, his tone a mix of relief and reassurance. "I'm sorry, Whizz. I didn't mean to startle you. I was just worried." Whizz hurriedly grabbed the towel, wrapping it around herself as she offered a sheepish smile. "No need to apologize, Samuel. I should have been more careful." Samuel's worried expression softened into a smile, his concern still evident in his eyes. "Are you alright?" Whizz
