In My Desperate Time

Without asking for leave, I rush out of the office, stop a car on the road, and head for the hospital.

I am so nervous and tears keep falling down for my face.

How could that happen?

I thought my mom was just bluffing me, but who knows, she actually jumped off from the balcony!

They live on the third floor. It’s not fatal, but my mother is still in coma. The doctor says the situation is not optimistic.

I regret very much.

If I hadn't hung up, if I had brought the money back, this probably wouldn't have happened.

I rush to the ward and find my mother unconscious. My father sees me, he comes up and slaps me on the face.

“If you weren't so heartless, your mother wouldn't jump off!”

My father's eyes are red with tears. He seems to have cried.

I cover my cheek and ask my father worriedly, “How's mom?”

“The doctors say there is congestion in her head and it is pressing on her main nerves. They can’t do the operation. All we can do is resign herself to her fate. I'm also a doctor, and I know that means your mother may never wake up! We've worked so hard to raise you up, and now you won’t give us a cent!”

He is angry as well as being sad.
