In My Desperate Time

“I am busy. I can’t go home now.”

Then, I hang up and power off the phone.

It is the first time I have been so bold as to hang up on Frances Louis. I don't know what will happen when I go back, but at this moment, I just want to wait for the results of the hospital.

I can't be relieved until I know Noah Jefferson is fine.

The operating room lights are on all the time.

As time goes on, my heart becomes more and more disturbed.

Finally, the operating room lights are off and the door opens from inside.

I go up to the doctor and ask anxiously, “How's he?”

“The extravasation in the skull has been cleared away, and the comminuted fracture in the shoulder is too serious. Even if it is recovered later, it can’t bear too much weight. His situation is stable now, so don't worry.”

Noah Jefferson is pushed out. The anesthetics makes him still asleep. But even in the dream, he is still smiling.

Looking at comatose Noah Jefferson, I stand by his bed and all mixed feelings rush into my heart.

Soon afterwards, Noah Jefferson’s father and mother come to the hospital.

They live in another city. It seems that they have just got off the plane.
