Chapter 26 - 26. Calm Down

Alen noticed something was wrong with Kim's cheeks. He lowered his body to confirm his vision. he also widened his eyes. "Are your cheeks swollen? Who dares to slap you?" worried Alen while holding Kim's shoulders.

Kim backed away until Alen's hand was released. "Do not interfere. Mind your own business," Kim said coldly and looked away.

"Kim!"

BRUK!

Ren reflexively braced himself to protect Kim from the debris that suddenly fell from the old building. "Ren!" shouted Kim and Alen at the same time. A piece of wood just hit Ren's back quite hard. It made Ren sit on the ground in pain.

"Why are you so stupid to put on a body like that?" mumbled Kim who stood up with a worried look.

Alen crouched down in front of Ren, then looked up at Kim. "Kim, quickly help Ren to climb onto my back. We have to take her to the hospital."

Kim obeyed Alen's words until Ren managed to climb onto his back. They rushed to the hospital to check on Ren's condition. Anxiously, they waited in front of where Ren was examined by the doctor.

At the border of Aves Town and Aves Village, Ozi was hiding in a large rock on a cliff. After waiting for this moment for so long, the border area is no longer so tightly guarded. If there were normally around 10 guards, now there were only three left. "Finally, the day I've been waiting for has arrived."

Nobi had warned him to be careful and immediately brought Ren back before chaos ensued. The magic power that Ren received from the black wing clan was not a good thing. So, Ozi was determined to meet Ren again. After making sure everything was safe, he directly crossed the border and rolled on the ground.

"Ah! I forgot that crossing the border would be painful," moaned Ozi while holding his back as he stood. Until he realized that he had set foot in Aves City.

Ozi immediately ran to a place where there were not too many people. Then, he hides behind people who may cover his body and wings from the sight of passers-by. However, he didn't realize that he could still be seen from another direction. The people who saw it just shook their heads in surprise.

Ozi also brought a notice board and walked slowly while looking for Ren's whereabouts. Because he had not seen any sign of the girl's whereabouts. he sneaks around like someone who wants to steal. Meanwhile, from a distance, Alen saw him while folding his arms in front of his chest.

"Do you know that crazy boy?" Kim asked, noticing the strange man acting strangely.

"For a moment, I felt ashamed to have known him," Alen muttered in a low voice, but Kim could still hear him. Then, he flew over to Ozi. "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Ozi immediately froze acting as if no one had spoken. Inwardly, he said, "Am I seen? Though this board is big enough to cover my body. Ahh, maybe he is talking to someone else."

Alen cleared his throat because he didn't get a response. After that, he shifted the board that Ozi was holding, then waved. "Hey! Are you pretending to be a statue?" he asked with a big smile.

Ozi was astonished to see someone in front of him. "Al-Alen? You are Alen, right? You're not with Ren? Where is Ren now?" he asked without giving Alen pause to answer his question.

"Umm... Ren is... at the hospital," said Alen dubiously.

"WHAT???" Ozi suddenly became angry with a loud voice. Then, he pulled Alen's collar. "Didn't you promise to take care of him?"

"Sorry, Oz. It was just an accident."

"Let go of my friend! I don't know you and I don't care who you are. I made Ren go to the hospital, so please take your hand off him," Kim said half pleading. To be honest, she still felt guilty about what had happened to Ren.

"Oh, shit!" After seeing the other white wingers, he immediately went back to hiding behind the board he had brought earlier. Kim immediately frowned.

"What happened to you?" asked Alen who was confused by Ozi's sudden change in attitude.

"If I don't hide, maybe she will catch me," he whispered into Alen's ear.

Allen sighed tiredly. "Calm down. Here it doesn't matter if you're black or white. Stories from generation to generation don't apply in government," he told Ozi to calm him down. Kim looked at him questioningly. Alen just shrugged his shoulders.

Ozi immediately put on a straight face after hearing Alen's statement. he felt stupid because of his behavior that was afraid of himself as a white wing, being caught in Aves City. Finally, he could only chuckle in annoyance. "Supposedly, I didn't believe what Uncle Nobi said," said him who was tired of himself.

"You haven't been able to fly for a while. So, you have to wait until your wings recover," said the Doctor.

Ren nodded and thanked the doctor who treated her. After the doctor left, she prepared to go home. she got out of bed to get out of the treatment room. One of his hands had to be hung with a cloth because he was in a cast. While his broken wing was bandaged.

When Ren opened the door, someone immediately hugged him tightly. "Ren, thank goodness you're still alive. I miss you."

Ren grimaced in pain as his hands were slightly squeezed. "Ooh, excuse me. Are you Ozi? No one would hug me this tight other than that boy."

Ozi also released his hug and immediately saw Ren's face. "Oh no. You should rest soon. Come on, I'll carry you," said Ozi as he crouched down in front of Ren. Kim and Alen were taken aback by Ozi's attitude which they thought was too much.

Ren just smiled faintly, because he was used to being treated like that by Ozi. "Ozi, let's walk until we get out of the hospital," Ren said smiling with slightly pale lips.

They all went to Alen's house. Kim and Alen led the way, while Ozi carried Ren while conversing in the back. "Ren, does it hurt? Are you sure you don't need to double-check?" asked Ozi attentively.
