Looking Out
After the somewhat touching moment between Evelyn and I passed, I left the hospital to go help Uriah clean up the wreckage from the rally.
He's already there, moving the faction bowls to a somewhat secluded and hidden place behind Erudite headquarters. Something tells me he doesn't exactly want the factions gone either.
"Hey Uri." I say, going over to help him with the Amity bowl. It reminds me of my - our - brief time in Amity, which in turn brings back memories of my father.
I stop looking at it.
"Hey Four, again, quit it with the nickname!" He says, sounding like a little child.
I chuckle. "Oh, yeah, sorry."
By now we've carried the bowl around the back, so we set it down carefully and go back to pick up a new one when something crosses my mind.
"How are you holding up?" I ask him.
He shrugs. "Well enough. I've been better."
As we walk, I notice him swerving slightly and I decide to make an assumption.
"You haven't been drinking have you?" I ask him, already knowing his answer.
He adverts my eyes. "Maybe..."
I roll my eyes. "You know what Zeke tells you about that."
He turns around, almost tripping over his feet and glares at me. "Zeke doesn't decide what I do." He says, then stomps off.
I frown, knowing that I might have crossed the line but not really caring. Someone has to look out for him, and clearly Zeke isn't.
