Slipping away
#6
She wasn't waking up, and it was Hadley's fault. He wasn't doing enough. He was the medic. He as supposed to fix things that went wrong! Adelle had stayed away from Isa, too furious to face the hybrid. Her visits had grown more and more infrequent as Isa turned for the worse. Losing another family was painful. Hadley was nice, but he hadn't exactly been fatherly. She suspected that it was because he didn't know how to be. He was even clumsy in handling Amatha at times, if still protective of her.

Today she slipped into the room, surprised at how many visitors there were. Adelle stayed at the back, dark eyes glaring at Hadley as he cuddled Amatha, looking helpless. He wasn't though. He wasn't as weak as everyone thought. She'd seen him practice defensive moves with Isa. She'd seen him make others well. Why wasn't he doing it for Isa? He must hate her. Her eyes skimmed over the others in the room, dipping her head at Sidra. Isa had a lot of friends. She had to wake up.
