Addiction. Andrew Russo had slowly become a sweet addiction of Elio Costa. That was the very first thought that came into Elio's mind when he returned to the twins' room and saw Andrew sitting beside their bed, leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed.
After seeing Nicholas safe and well, the fear that settled inside Elio of losing the brother he loved so much upon hearing the nurse's words was replaced by immense relief. But oddly, a heavy weight still lingered on his shoulder, refusing to lift entirely. He felt like there was something missing within him. He felt restless.
And he couldn't understand why the weight was still there and why he was feeling like that even when everything had fallen back into place. And when he didn't find the answer, he eventually left it, attributing it as exhaustion and the lingering effects of the chaotic events of the day.
