Chapter 15 - Apology

Sean stood outside the entrance of the bustling mall, feeling a mix of nerves and anticipation. Today was the day he had decided to make amends with Susan, his classmate whom he had broken her rips in a practice match. Guilt gnawed at his insides, and he knew he needed to apologize and find a way to make things right and asked for her forgiveness.

At his side stood Sarah, a kind-hearted woman who had taken Sean under her wing . She had offered to accompany him on this mission of reconciliation, providing guidance and support. Sarah had a knack for understanding people and finding the perfect solutions to delicate situations.

With a deep breath, Sean stepped into the vibrant mall, its corridors lined with stores of all kinds. The overwhelming variety of choices made him momentarily unsure of where to begin. Sarah, noticing his confusion, gently placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Let's start by thinking about what Susan might appreciate," she suggested, leading Sean towards a nearby flower shop. "Flowers are always a thoughtful gesture. They can brighten up a room and bring a smile to someone's face."

Sean nodded, grateful for Sarah's guidance. Sarah bought a bouquet of flowers ,telling him that it will help beautify susan hospital room and would also make sarah happy ,hearing this brought a smile at sean face ,seeing this sarah felt pleased at herself that the boy that always wanted revenge could have feelings about someone other than himself. As they continued exploring the mall, Sarah suggested a few other items to complement the gift.

"How about a soft, cuddly teddy bear?" Sarah suggested, pointing to a toy store they passed by. "It's a comforting companion that can keep her company while she recovers."

Sean agreed, and they added a plush teddy bear to their growing collection of gifts. Sarah's ideas seemed to flow effortlessly, and Sean marveled at her ability to understand the needs and desires of others.

After a few more hours of browsing, Sean had acquired a delightful assortment of items. Alongside the flowers and teddy bear, they had found a heartfelt card, a cozy blanket, and a box of chocolates. The gifts were carefully wrapped and tucked into a bag, ready to be presented.

"I think we got enough apology (Recovery) gift ,I think it's time we give susan a visit at the school infirmary" Said Sarah .

Sean replied Sarah with a nod signifying yes and the two of them started leaving the mall together.

With the present in hand, Sean and Sarah made their way to the school infirmary where Susan was recuperating. Sean's heart raced as they approached the door, unsure of how she would receive his gesture. He took a deep breath, gathered his courage, and opened the door.

Inside the hospital room, Susan sat upright in her bed, her face lighting up as she noticed Sean's arrival. She waved cheerfully, a warm smile spreading across her face. Sean felt a mixture of relief and nervousness, unsure of how to respond.

Before he could say anything, Sarah stepped forward, breaking the momentary silence. "Susan, Sean has brought you something special," she said with a warm smile, holding out the bag containing the gifts.

Curiosity sparkled in Susan's eyes as she accepted the bag and peeked inside. A moment later, her laughter filled the room, pure and genuine. Sean couldn't help but be drawn to her infectious joy, feeling a weight lift off his shoulders.

"You really didn't have to do this, Sean," Susan said, her voice tinged with amusement. "But I appreciate it, and I'm definitely not angry with you. Accidents happen, and I know you didn't mean to hurt me."

Relief washed over Sean as he absorbed Susan's forgiving words. It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He found himself smiling in return, feeling an unexpected connection with Susan.

Just as the conversation began to flow, the door creaked open once again, revealing Peter, the notorious bully of their school. He had a reputation for being tough and aloof, and Sean couldn't help but feel surprised by his presence.

"Congrats on getting well, Susan," Peter said, his voice unusually soft. He approached her bed, offering a shy smile.

Sean's eyes widened in astonishment, witnessing a side of Peter he had never expected. The bully seemed genuinely concerned for Susan's well-being, putting aside his tough exterior.

Sean burst into laughter, unable to contain his amusement. "So, even you have feelings, Peter?" he exclaimed, a mischievous twinkle in his eyes. "I thought you were just a heartless bully."

Peter's face turned beet red, embarrassed by Sean's teasing remark. "Shut up, Sean," he muttered, trying to hide his bashfulness. "I wasn't worried about her. I just came to check on her because we're going to be teammates in the future."

The room filled with laughter, tension dissolving in the presence of newfound understanding and camaraderie. As Sean and Peter exchanged a knowing look, they realized that their shared concern for Susan had brought them closer, forging an unexpected friendship.

"In the meantime you guys should know I am going to be discharge later this evening and we going to begin the mission we were assigned to tommorow" Said Susan .

"Are you sure you are okay that you had to be discharge from the infirmary this evening " Said Peter while giving a concern look at Susan .

" Yes I am ,I was treated by the school nurse who has the power to treat any kind of injuries but can't revive someone that is about to die" Said Susan.

Hearing this Sean screamed outloud " Sarah you knew about this "

Sarah gave out a chuckle and said " If I told you the truth I won't be able to see you cute reactions".

Hearing this Made Sean so embarrassed that he wished he could bury himself beneath the room he was , "Sarah I am going to get you for this " Said Sean while launching attack at Sarah but Sarah was just laughing while dodging and countering all his attacks .

Seeing the scenes that had just unfounded made Susan and Peter looked at each other and look towards the direction at Sean and Sarah and made them laughed outloud.

And so, in that hospital room, the seeds of a unique bond were planted, intertwining the lives of Sean, Susan, and Peter in ways they could never have imagined. Little did they know that this chance encounter would mark the beginning of an extraordinary journey filled with growth, forgiveness, and unexpected friendships that would shape their lives for years to come.
