You and Aaron have been together for years. The two of you were close. Recently, you hadn’t seen him. He wasn’t coming to classes and didn’t answer his phone.

So, you went to his dorm room. You knocked and waited for a few seconds. Instead of opening the door, Aaron unlocked it.

You opened the door and saw him standing a few feet away with a mask on. You walked inside only for Aaron to step back as you did.

“Stay back! I’m sick…,” he mumbled, staring at you and keeping his distance.
