"What are you doing here?" 

"Err, fresh air..?" The girl explained, smiling nervously. 

"You still can't walk.." Jeff breathed, staring at her.

"It's boring." The girl whined, pouting. 

EJ silently took a step back. He raised his hand into two fingers and put them together, holding it above his head. "Sayonara, muthafuckas." He said, before dashing out of the kitchen. 

Jeff was about to call EJ back, but a bright idea suddenly slipped into mind. He glanced back at the girl. "Can you walk?" He asked.

"I can drag myself on the ground." The girl said, proudly.

Jeff sighed and shook his head. "Get on my back." He ordered. 

The girl's face immediately heated up. "W-What?" 

"Get on my back." He repeated calmly. 

"I-I just can't.." 

Jeff cut her off by walking behind her and grabbing her legs, before dangling her in mid-air, as she desperately clawed the air, trying to get down. "Let go!" 

Jeff didn't listen, he swung the girl over his back, her arms locked around his neck, while he piggy-back-rided the girl over towards the couch. 

"Why are you doing this?" The girl whispered.

"Would you like me to carry you bridle-style then?" Jeff offered.

The girl kept quiet from then on, as Jeff slowly slid her body off of his, and onto the couch. Smile perked up, now in his dog form, and waddled over towards the girl, flicking his tail high in the air, as if he was going to let out a loud fart in front of Jeff's face. Jeff looked away in disgust.

Smile sat down near the girl, and sniffed at the dangling hand from the couch, making the girl giggle. "It tickles." She said.

Smile licked her hand gently, tail-wagging, as Jeff silently glared at him. 

"So can you feel anything yet?" He asked the girl.

The girl turned to him and shook her head. "I can't feel anything near my leg, but overall, I'm fine." She replied cheerfully. 

Jeff nodded, feeling reassured, as he turned towards EJ, who gave him the 'i told you so' look from the stairs that lead to the attic. 

"Are you hungry?" Jeff asked the girl. 

She shook her head. "No, not really." 

Jeff gave her an unsure look, making the girl huff in impatience. "Honestly," she added.

"Okay," Jeff said, pausing a moment later before asking, "So what do you want to do?" 

"Right now?" The girl asked, raising her eyebrow.

Jeff nodded in response.

"Err, do you have any games to play?" She asked awkwardly.

Jeff glanced back at EJ, who was raising his hands in defense. 

"It doesn't have to be a physical game." The girl said quickly. Jeff and EJ were both tilting their heads slightly as if they had the slightest clue of what the girl had said. "It can be a mental game, you know, the ones where you think of a category and you have to say the words that fit into that category." She added. "Or the ones where you come up with random questions and you need to ask somebody, and if they can't answer, they lose."
