Adela lowered her gaze as she heard him. She had nothing to say to him. Ryan took a deep breath and said, "Adela, I think I should talk to him, but I don't know what to say."
Adela pressed her lips together and said with a sad tone, "I think you should do it."
Ryan nodded his head as the team began to disperse. Ryan took a deep breath, pushing aside the weight of his guilt. He approached Ezra, a mix of determination and remorse etched across his face. He offered his friend a sincere apology, expressing his regret for not being able to help at that critical moment.
Ezra, with a knowing smile, placed a reassuring hand on Ryan's shoulder. He understood the depth of Ryan's emotions, recognizing the turmoil that lay within his friend's heart. He assured Ryan that the team's strength lay not in individual heroics but in their collective unity and unwavering support for one another.
