<div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">After ‘That Day’</span></div><hr/><br/><div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/fgm5IMb.png)</div><strong>NAME:</strong>Mallory Minato<br/><strong>DAY:</strong>June 12th, 2009, 10:00PM<br/><strong>LOCATION:</strong>SOPHE Medical Ward<br/><strong>TAGGING:</strong>Kevin<br/><strong>EXTRA:</strong>Kevin is here?<br/><strong>WEARING:</strong>Hospital Gown<br/><hr/><br/>“Work here...?”  Kevin worked here now? It had only been two days since his 18th birthday, but he was already starting a path towards something. Deep down she was glad, glad that he was forging a direction for his life, but here of all places, with everything happening in the world...<br/><br/>At the mention of her being ok, she grimaced, turning to look at her lap. “I’ve been here in recovery for two days. Something...something happened back home.”  Even she didn’t have all the details of what happened, all she knew was that her family was gone, her home in shambles. “My aunt and uncle are gone... SOPHE said something about a demon attack.”  Her hands grabbed at the sheets of her bed, glasses getting foggy from the tears that welled up. “They said...that a demon possessed me, but everything is so hazy, I don’t remember any of it to be honest.”  She shifted slightly on her bed to sit up, and moved so that she sat at the edge, closer to Kevin, who had taken the spare room chair.  “SOPHE just wants to keep an eye on me for a bit, but so far, it’s just been me in here.”<br/><br/>She glanced towards him, who was sitting next to her in a seat by her bed. She could see he was in a similar way, worried and anxious. She just wanted to see him smile, to be happy.<br/><br/>“B-but I’m ok, really.”  Mallory turned to Kevin, trying to reassure the man, hoping to ease him. She wasn’t sure why he had been so worried, so stressed; if he had asked what had happened, had he not seen or heard during the party? She gave a short sigh, trying to put in a brave face, or rather, any expression to ease her friend. The only thing she could think of was his party, and his birthday; that would do for the time being.<br/><br/>“So, Eighteen is a pretty big deal; I hope your party was ok.”  Trying to get back to something cheerful, something happy. “Sorry...that I couldn’t be there.”<br/><br/><em>After what happened though, I’m glad I wasn’t...</em><br/><br/>“I had a gift and everything all planned out too. With everything that had happened though, I don’t think SOPHE will let me back near my house anytime soon...”  A nervous chuckle came from Mallory, however more so in an attempt to lighten the mood. Deep down however, she knew that things weren’t going to be the same. Though, now that she thought about the party, and Kevin being here...<br/><br/>“Wait, do your parents know that you’re here?”   She would have thought so, considering Kevin had only just recently turned 18. They must have trust him immensely if they let him join SOPHE right after his birthday, of all days.
