Chapter 7 – Concern

Kai tried to move, but found it impossible. His body didn't respond like he wanted to, he barely had enough strength to move. He felt like his body weighed a ton.

He knew he was badly injured from his thigh and his chest. But he knew he couldn't stay in this place, knowing Ray could be in danger. Besides he didn't fully trust Tala yet.

True Tala is Ray's friend and he did knew Ray a little but he needed to know Tala more. He couldn't risk Ray or his own life.

The little movement Kai tried to do, made fresh blood to soak the white bandages on his chest. He needed to ignore the pain if he wanted to move. Slowly Kai moved his legs to one side of the bed.

Pain was rising up quickly as he knew he shouldn't have moved. Blood quickly stained the entire bandage rapping his thigh. His legs were now in a dangling position, he was now ready place his bare feet on the floor.

Tala walked in before Kai could do anymore movement, a small cup filled with water was on his hands.

"Hey!" Tala ran to set the cup on the near table and grab Kai by his torso, carefully avoiding his wound.

"No moving around. You already opened those wounds again." He slowly pushed Kai back to lay down.

Tala moved to grab a small medicine kit from the near table. He then started undoing Kai's chest bandage. Kai eyed him blankly, he just then noticed that his black shirt was ripped opened, leaving a bare wounded and bruised chest.

Tala undid Kai's bandaged, and he analyzed carefully the wound. But right next to his chest wound, just a few inches beneath it, was what look liked an old scar. Tala ran his fingers touching it slightly.

Kai shivered at Tala's touch, Tala lifted his head to look at Kai. Icy blue eyes met crimson ones. For the few seconds they met gaze Kai felt some sort of comfort in Tala's eyes. A small smile appeared on Tala's pink lips.

Kai's heart skipped. He blushed slightly and turned to look away quickly. 'What the?' Kai thought 'Why did I blush with his smile?'

"I brought you some water." Tala went and retrieved the cup from the table. He handed slowly to Kai.

Kai took it but still kept looking away, he sipped some of the cold beverage. He looked how Tala moved to get a small bottle and cloth. Tala damp and went to press slightly over Kai's wound. Kai flinched, it hurt.

"Sorry if this stings." Tala continued to press slightly on the wound.

Kai closed his eyes, trying to hide the immense pain he was feeling. He was relieved when Tala stopped pressing and started to cover the wound with a new bandage.

The same treatment was given to his thigh, but it hurt a lot more. This time Kai winced and closed his eyes tighter. Once Tala was done with his thigh, he moved to sit next to Kai.

Kai opened his eyes quickly when he felt a warm hand touch his forehead. He saw Tala's worried expression on his blue eyes. Why was it he felt some connection to those blue eyes?

"Hmm you feel kinda warm." Tala almost whispered, as he leaned closer to Kai's face. Tala noticed how Kai was staring at him. He smiled at Kai again, but this time Kai dint look away, he just blushed slightly again.

Footsteps caught his attention and he turned to look at Ray in front of the door. He was holding a bowl that looked like it contained food.

"Hi Kai, I brought you some soup Tala made." Ray approached Kai and sat to his left

"I'm … not hungry." Kai looked away.

"But you have to eat to restore energy." Ray moved closer and place a small amount of food in the spoon he was holding.

"Make sure he eats something, I'll be right back." Tala said as he walked out the door.

Ray nodded and turned to place the spoon inches away from Kai's mouth. Kai looked away, and sighed "I said I'm not hungry." He said coldly.

"And I'm not moving from here until you eat." Ray replied "Just a few spoons ok?" He smiled at Kai as he placed the spoon in front of Kai's mouth once more. Kai sighed, he hated being helpless.

If Ray would leave him alone by eating some of the soup, then he had no other choice. He opened his mouth slowly and took in the spoon.

After five more spoons, he had enough. His stomach was not feeling good. He turned his head away from Ray.

Tala walked in with a small bottle and set it on the table. He opened and took out a syringe from the drawer. He filled up the syringe with a clear liquid from the small bottle he had brought. Kai eyed him with fear. He hated needles, it brought painful memories.

Tala approached Kai with the syringe, Kai backed away quickly. "It's an antibiotic medication." he noticed how Kai was looking at the syringe. He tried to take hold of Kai's arm, but Kai quickly moved away. He glared at Tala.

"Kai this will help you."Tala moved closer again. He took hold of Kai's arm with enough force, careful not to injure him. Kai, seeing Tala's determination, gave up and looked away. He closed his eyes tightly as he felt how the needle pierced his skin softly.

"He didn't want to eat much Tala." Ray said as he stood and walked towards Tala. He sighed and placed a chair to Kai's right.

"Ok…I don't want to rush into things but…Ray and I need know what happened to you." Tala said slowly.

Kai sighed deeply and looked away, he stayed quiet. For a few minutes neither Tala nor Ray said something. "Kai, Tala and I can help you. We work with the police, if someone did this to you, we can help catch this person."

Kai kept looking away and started to think. 'I cant tell them Andrew did this. Should I? I could warn them about him.' He sighed as he started to explain. "You…are in danger…".

"Say what?" Ray asked.

"Danger? From who or what?" Tala also asked.

"If I don't leave from here you both are in danger." Kai said as he tried to sit up, Tala rushed to grab Kai gently and tried to lay him down again. Kai winced as he tried to push Tala away.

"Please…I have to get away from here." Kai practically begged. "You are in no condition to move." Tala replied.

A sudden ringing came from the kitchen. Tala sighed and headed out the door. "Ray make sure he rests." He said as he walked out the door. Ray went to stand close to Kai.

A few minutes later Tala walked in holding his cell phone and jacket. "Chief wants to see me. I'll be back in a while" Tala looked at Ray and then looked at Kai and smiled at him. Kai looked away.

Ray nodded then Tala left the room. Ray yawned then looked at his watch. 1:40 am. "Why would the chief want to see Tala at this time?" Ray said to himself.
