RIKO HAD TO stay in the hospital for a while, the doctors not sure that she was fully capable of walking on her own, nor that her leg would heal properly, so they wanted her there for most of that process.
She wanted to go home eagerly, but couldn't. However she didn't let that bring her down for two reasons. One, she had confirmation that her apartment was outside the blast and that Mylo was okay and being taken care of by a peer from school. Secondly, she was able to walk around the hospital on her own.
The doctors encouraged it, in fact. They just kept a limited area that she had to stay in, and to keep out of the way for others, but let her roam free for the most part.
Throughout her recovery, she found herself walking by the blond boy's room, peeking inside. Always, he would be in there. He could be talking to one of the boys, watching television, simply thinking, or watching the window, waiting for someone to walk by.
Riko didn't know who he was waiting for every day, but she knew that they were lucky, because he was a very attractive man.
However he'd always turn and watch her walk by, whether she noticed or not.
Days later Riko was walking down the hall by herself. She walked her normal route at her normal time, down the halls of patients that were sent in by the crash. This time when she walked by the blond man's room and looked in, he wasn't in there.
Feeling disappointed Riko continued down the hall, holding onto the railing for support. She made it to the vending machine and stopped to look at the drinks inside. She didn't have any money with her, she had left it inside her bag but she still wanted to look at the the different flavors.
As she was observing them, out of her peripherals she spotted the blond man walking in her direction on the opposite side of the hallway.
The blond man looked up and met her eye. Great, now he'll think I'm even more of a creep, not that I haven't been creepy this entire time. Walking by his room everyday and looking inside. Wow that sounds so much worse than I would have thought, she mused, maintaining the eye contact. Have I really not seen him before? The man furrowed his eyebrows, contemplating something before he started walking across the hall and towards Riko.
Riko straightened her posture in surprise, she hadn't been expecting him to approach her, and now that it was happening she did not feel prepared in the slightest. This was something you mentally prepared yourself on, not just get thrown into.
