Sunny knocked on the door to Basil's house, it was hard for him to just walk back to his mom's car and ask her to return home. He was half-convinced that Basil wouldn't want to see him, but he had to stay strong. After all, it wasn't like he could visit his other friends, especially given how they had reacted to the truth. He'd prefer to give them a while to process things before trying to get in contact. "Hello? Is Basil home?" He'd ask once he had knocked, patiently waiting for an answer.
Basil had been devastated by the truth coming out. A weight had been lifted, finally freeing himself from that terrible terrible secret. Though it came at a cost he wasn't sure how to handle, even if he was forgiven who's to say they'd still want to be friends. He trusted them, understood it was their choice to make. But it didn't make things any easier. He was free and completely at a loss.
It didn't take long for Basil to answer the door himself. Hearing Sunny call out like that wasn't something he was used to.
"Oh, hey Sunny...it's good to see you." His voice wavered, nervous but genuine.
"Are you recovering well? I-I really can't apologize enough, for everything." Basil had already packaged an apology with nearly every breath since the accident. Thin fingers picked anxiously at his bandages as he stopped himself from rambling further.
"S-Sorry. You came for a reason didn't you? What's going on?"
