Monday, the start of yet another school day. Another day where he 's absent. Another day not learning anything. Another day where he won 't see and talk to his friends again.
The opened window brought in cool air, swirling around the average hospital room. Unfortunately, this made the eleven-year-old boy shiver nonstop and his teeth clattering like a skeleton would. His front bangs of his silver-dyed hair brushed upwards, for the air sometimes liked to mess around with it, showing the child 's bare forehead, and gently crash-land back to its place.

Pushing the random thought aside, he continued.
