"Rad told me everything. You're okay, right?" His concern was evident through the phone.

"I'm fine, just gonna be a hassle for you, Dustin," I always made sure to be polite with him.

There was a pause on his end for a couple of seconds, "Just make yourself at home, alright? You're safe at my place, guaranteed." "Alright!" I didn't say much else.
