Chapter 13 - you traitor

(William's mother opened the door)

James: oh hello Mrs. Watson, i'm here to see William.

Mrs. Watson: oh how nice of you. Come he's upstairs. He had a visitor before you came. He was a very nice kid. Oh what was his name, ahh George.

He's very well-mannered. He helped me in the kitchen even when i told him not to and he also got fruits for him. I felt so bad but he insisted. He also told me he's a year younger than William. He's in the same year as you, right?

Oh i'm sorry i'm wasting your time. You should go see William. He's been throwing tantrums ever since that kid left like,'why did you let him come here?'

James: (laughs) i'll go then.

(James opened the door very quietly so that William doesn't get disturbed. He saw that William was facing the wall and jumped on him making him startled. William looked at him and pushed him away. James got confused)

William: you traitor, why did you let him know that i'm ill?

James: i didn't. He was following me around asking about you and then Travis came to us. I said hello to Travis and he asked me about George. I said he wants to know about William.

Then i asked about you not coming so he told me that you were sick. I thought i'll come to see you after university but then i received your message and i rushed to you. But he's gone now.

Tell me, did he do something wrong? 'Cause if he did then i will go and punch him on his face.

William: many things happened. I was surprised to see him behaving very well. I knew he would only act good in front of my mom but not only with mom, he acted so nicely with me too. What happened at last, shocked the hell out of me.

William's house

Third person's p.o.v

(William was sleeping in his room. After a few minutes he woke up. He sat straight and stretched his arms)

William: i feel a lot better now.

(Suddenly he started to have a headache)

William: (groans) not now.

(He laid down again and covered himself with a blanket. Someone knocked on his door)

William: come in. Mom you don't have to kno-

(He wasn't looking at the door. His eyes were closed. But when he opened them and looked at the person who had entered his room, he went silent. He didn't even get to complete his sentence)

William: why are you here?

George: well i was with James but then i got to know about you being sick and i rushed here.

William: why did you rush here? We're not even that close except for last night, thank you about that. I was scared.

George: oh you don't have to thank me. I just wanted (mumbles something)

(He lowered his voice at the last word of his sentence and started to look here and there. His eyes landed on a picture of William with his father when he was young)

George: oh is that you? And who is next to you? You look cute though.

(He helped William to sit straight)

William: oh yes that's me and my father.

George: it's nice, where's your father?

William: he died two years ago.

George: oh i'm sorry.

William: it's ok. Everyone's fine now.

George: well are you hungry do you want to eat something?

(William was about to say yes but his mom entered with a bowl of fruits. They were cut in cube shapes. His mother saw that he was sitting and smiled at him)

Mrs. Watson: you're awake. How was your sleep? Are you feeling well now?

William: yes i had a good sleep and i'm feeling much better than before. But i still have a headache.

Mrs. Watson: hmm eat some fruits. You'll feel better. George come sit here. Have some.

(She added scoops of the fruit salad in two bowls and gave them to William and George. They took them shamelessly)

George: thank you Mrs. Watson.

William: tch stop acting so nice.

Mrs. Watson: William don't be rude. He came to see you because he was worried about you.

William: well thank you so much for visiting. You may leave now.

Mrs. Watson: he won't leave. And watch that attitude of yours. Be nice to those who care about you. You can stay George.

George: thank you so much Mrs. Watson.

Mrs. Watson: oh no problem at all. Will, say sorry to him, right now.

William: (sighs) sorry.

Mrs. Watson: good. Ok you both have fun and i'll take these downstairs.
