The disbelief was shared with everyone there. No one knew what to say or even how to react to Noah's spontaneous fainting. Although everyone was hesitant to voice their thoughts. Neal's emotional outburst broke the dam for more negativity.
"What the hell is he doing?" Alicia muttered, shaking her head.
"This is insane," another voice echoed.
Ailetta, visibly concerned, knelt beside Noah, checking for signs of consciousness. "He'll be fine," she said, more to reassure herself than anyone else. She turned to the group, trying to maintain composure. "Let's give him a moment. This is part of his process… I think."
"Who cares if he's fine or not? How long are we supposed to wait?? Maybe we were better off driving after all!"
"Obviously he only cares about himself!"
The frustrated voices began to unite under the same banner, attacking Noah when he wasn't able to defend himself.
