In My Desperate Time

It's finished!

We can't hide it anymore.

I get flustered, thinking how I should explain.

Mom smiles calmly at Frank and says, "What's the big deal? It's normal to get wounded by a knife when cooking in the kitchen. When I was cooking in the kitchen, I accidentally nicked myself with the knife in my hand and fell on my head. That's why I ended up in the hospital. It's no big deal. I didn't bleed much."

I feel bitter suddenly.

Mom takes great pains to conceal from Frank.

That day when I rushed into the bathroom, I was freaked out by the bathtub full of blood. The doctor said that if I had delayed sending her to the hospital, Mom might have died of hemorrhage.

Mom chooses to conceal all of this just to avoid trouble.

Frank is not perceptive, so he believes Mom, sitting down in relief.

"Jane, let me peel an apple for you."

I shake my head and say, "No, thanks. I'm going out to eat."

Someone's waiting for me.

When I came down to my Mom, I told Frances that I would go back to him later. Now that Frank is here, I don't want Frances to wait too long.
