TERRIFIED. (single drabble)
Alexander entered the barracks chamber and looked at the man lying on the tiny bed; he could not believe that Hephaestion was lying so still; his chest raising and falling in such a subtle way that it seemed unmoving.
The king was restless; his Hephaestion never fell ill and if he did, he was well again after a few hours of rest. However, this had not been the case, he had been there for days and he had rejected everybody's company, even Alexander's.
Alexander was terrified, thinking how he would go on living if Phai didn't recover from his depression.
