Donald's dad and Linda.
Everyone was in silence, only the sobbing of Linda could be heard, donald's dad stood still for a minute and half before moving forward to make an attempt in calming her down. He came closer to her, trying to use his hands to calm her down, but the hands aren't moving, maybe for the fact he didn't know what to say or he was afraid because he has done wrong.
Linda lifted up her head, her face was "awful"! it was filled with tears, she knew that what she was preventing to happen has finally happened.
Her voice was breaking and fading into the air, the strength to shout or force out her words were dead, the only thing she could do was to give a high whisper.
" I was a virgin! I...I...I trusted you as my friend, I thought I could confide in you, but...but... You failed"
She couldn't say plenty of words to him because words were not enough to express her anger and disappointment in him. Even if they had fun that night it was still hard for her to believe that it really happened.
Donald's dad was confused, he knew that the human faith doesn't works mysteriously, he knew he had betrayed the trust of Linda, he did good as well as keeping his mouth shut without trying to give out an explanation, he could only sobber and feel same pain that she felt.
She took up her clothes and dressed up to leave, she couldn't put on her shoes neither could she walk. The pain has been registered in her heart, the results could vividly show on her face that something has happened but still yet even if she felt the urge she couldn't commit suicide. She kept blaming herself why she got "drunk" in a mere party.

She had swore in her heart never to trust or believe any man especially mr silva who is donald's father. Donald's father knew she can't walk home alone, he saw her state, how she was, he knew it would be hard for her to even recognize her own house. Her eyes only daze at a particular direction, her legs were shaky and her face was pale.
He put on his clothes and followed Linda up to make sure she gets home, he walked towards her and hold her hand to make sure she's safe. Linda who noticed it shouted at him loud on the streets " Get your stinky hands off me, I hate you".
Donald's father knew that at the state of anger words can be said. He didn't mind the words she used on him but he was trying to pay extremely high for the damage he caused her. He quickly rushed towards her, this time around not holding her, but carrying her like a father carrying his baby on his hands with so much care and softness.
She was struggling to make sure she get down but donald's father tightly held her until he saw a taxi before dropping her down. She gave him a hard slap, he felt it in his heart because the pressure of the slap was the same with the one he gave to donald's mother, his wife. His mind quickly recapped everything that has happened, he has made a mistake just like his son did, only that alone made him to burst in tears.
Linda without minding him entered the taxi and left. When she had dropped at her gate, she stood for a thirty and one minutes at the gate, thinking and crying, before she knew it she passed out. She fell on the ground and fainted, and no one was there to see or help her.

After donald's father had finished regretting he took a taxi to go to Linda's house to plea, on getting there he saw Linda on the floor lying helplessly, he quickly rushed down from the taxi, carried her inside the taxi and rushed her to a nearby hospital.
When he got there the doctor quickly attended to him and they send her to a ward to treat her. Donald's father was shivering cause he knew the problem before him happened because of his carelessness.
The doctors came to give him a report on the situation of Linda, they told him " she fainted due to a shock which causes her hearts to beat faster and she got a high blood pressure, but for now she isn't responding but she's breathing, she's in a coma, and we would do our possible best to help her".
Donald's father quenched on the ground, because he was confused why all the bad things In the world has befall on him, he said to himself " I'm pushing a Chariot full of Troubles".

Body Modifier: Energy Required
Aria ate a fish. [Energy: 2] Finished, he ate another fish. [Energy: 2] ... [Energy: 3] Without realizing it, he had finished 5 fishes. He felt a little bloat, he lay down with a full stomach, occasionally burped. Even though he didn't want to be a big lump of meatball, he still had to keep eating. At least until he found another way to accumulate energy. After all, if he didn't take advantage of his advantages, wasn't that stupid? His mind then drifted imagining which one he would use the energy for. Should he use it on his eyes, so it shot a beam of laser, like a certain bespectacled mutant? Should he use it on his bones, so it regenerated infinitely, like a certain character from an anime? Should he use it on his brain, so he became a genius, like a scientist with a bald head? Or should he use it on his vital organ, so that he became the manliest person in the world? While he was imagining things, suddenly his ears felt pinched. "Ouch!" "Didn't mom already say you can't play with fire, you brat?!" There he realized, knowing that no matter what he chose, he was still a child in front of his mother.
