As Natasha and Shawn talked, Natasha suddenly remembered something and pulled out her phone and showed him the video of him fighting with Jackson.
"You fought him?" She asked surprised and shocked by it. When she saw the video for the very first time, she was shocked surprised, and pissed at Jackson because it was very clear that he was the one who initiated the fight.
'I didn't fight him, as you can see, he was the one who was swinging wildly at me, I just moved around, nothing serious but he did break his hand while doing so". Shawn replied unbothered by the topic.
Natasha didn't know what to say, she just put away her phone and decided to not talk about it, she had already ended her relationship with Jackson, she finally saw his true nature and didn't want to associate with him in any way, she realized that Jackson is a bully and a violent person, Jackson had no reason to attack Shawn but he did instead of coming to meet her, he was busy trying to pick up fights with the person she was with.
Jackson was angry at her for being with Shawn than attending his party, they fought on the phone and that is when she finally called it off and broke up on the phone.
After the break up when she checked her phone the next day she saw the video of Jackson attacking Shawn and injuring himself, this just made her realize that she did the right thing.
"I am sorry, he attacked you because of me, I broke up with him, and the very next day he tried to attack you". Natasha said while clearly embarrassed about her actions, she believed that if she hadn't broken up with Jackson this would have not happened, since she is in a very vulnerable state right now she blamed herself for most of the things that happened in the recent week.
"I see that you blame yourself for this but don't, Jackson has always been an asshole and I had my history with him, just forget about him and move on, don't think much about it". Shawn said and reassured her.
After talking to her for a few minutes, Shawn bid his farewell and left, Natasha felt lonely as she is not alone again, she will have to wait for hours before her parents come to visit her again.

Shawn walked out of the hospital and decided to return home, on his way to his house he used his powers several times, he didn't run but he did activate his power to slow down things around him to check everything in detail.
He started to see and notice things that he has never seen before, things look so different and alive when things are slowed down in front of him, colors and light seem so different to him.
Shawn soon found himself at a four-way crossroad and waited for the lights to turn green, a few seconds passed and he suddenly heard a siren going off, he became alerted and looked in the direction from where the siren's sound was coming from, he looked around and noticed that he was the only one who heard the siren, but after a few seconds, the people around him also lifted their head and looked at the direction of the siren.
Shawn realized that he can even hear things much better than he expected, as he looked he saw a black van racing in their direction, and right behind him were several police cars chasing after it.
He also heard gunshots, he saw two robbers shooting out of the window with their guns, the police were much more careful and didn't open fire as there are still civilians on the street.
One of the police officers finally found a clear shot that he wanted and took a shot, the bullet fired from his gun zoomed and shot the black van's tire.
Shawn realized that it was a robbery, Shawn saw everything in slow motion as he activated his powers.
As he watched the bullet hit the tire of the black van, it burst to cause the van to go out of control, to regain control of the van, the driver made a sharp turn which caused the whole van to tilt and then flip after going zig-zag all over the road, the van finally flip and headed towards a pedestrian at high speed.
Everyone present at the scene is horrified as the van is heading straight towards a young woman in a yellow top and pink short skirt who is helping an old lady as they had just crossed the road on the other side.
Shawn who was on the other side of the street saw everything as his power was activated, he could see the concern in people around the young woman and the old lady, the fear in their eyes as they realized that they were about to die.
He could see people trying to warn both of them to get out of the way but Shawn knew it was useless because the van is traveling at the speed of 130 km/h, no matter what they do the black van is going to crush them.
Shawn had to make a decision right now but he has a lot of time unlike others around him, whether to save them or risk getting exposed.
'I can easily save them but this street is filled with cameras which can easily slow down footage, I can easily get exposed and get under the government's watch, they might even treat me as a threat and make a move on me'. Shawn thought as he watched the van making advancement towards the two in danger a centimeter per second.
'Or I need to run so fast that no matter how much they slow down these cameras they cannot see me move at all'. Shawn thought and decide to do it, he wanted to see the limit of his power.
He focused on slowing down his surrounding to his perception as much as possible, he felt that his power was endless, as he increased his focus he saw that everything around him just stopped completely, everything was just there not moving at all, even light itself was frozen in time in Shawn's perspective.
As this happened Shawn's vision started to disfigure as his perception of time was faster than the speed of light itself, Shawn realized that he was doing too much so he stopped concentrating so much and lowered the output of his power.
As soon as he did such his vision became normal but everything was still frozen in space and no moving.
