Tricia left for the hospital, and as Maya had some business to attend to, Brian took Diane back home.
Christian was back when she arrived.
Without a word, she walked straight to him to give him a big tight hug.
"I'm so sorry about your sister," she whispered as Brian walked in and set her bag down on the couch.
"Thank you." Christian wrapped his arms around her. He needed that comforting hug, plus he was glad that she seemed better than the previous day.
Releasing her from his embrace, Christian accepted Brian's brotherly hug before going back to sit on the couch. Although his eyes were no longer red from crying, they were swollen. And he looked like he hadn't had a good sleep.
"I will see if there is any food and heat it," Brian said as he made his way into the kitchen.
