Michael—who was also here on this day to visit Albert—was saddened to see the 1-meter tall boy lying in the intensive care unit with tubes all over his body.

Upon hearing Albert’s words, he comforted him and said, “I’ll hug you every day once you get well, alright?”

Albert blinked his eyes as if he were nodding.

Even though he had barely escaped death, he suffered severe damage to many organs, especially his digestive system. It would take him a long time to be slowly nursed back to health.

He wouldn’t be able to look after himself for a long time. Not only was he required to be on a ventilator at all times, he also needed the help of medical equipment to fulfill his basic needs.

Albert couldn’t move at all, and his voice was faint and hoarse because his vocal cords were hurt by the poison. He was fed a new type of pesticide that was comparable to paraquat due to its acute toxicity. Luckily, he was put into cryogenic sleep in time, which saved his life.

His eyes rolled about as he looked at everyone before his gaze settled on Derek, who was standing to one side. His lips quivered for a moment before tears welled up in his round eyes; he then whispered, “I’m in pain, Derek…”

Holding back his tears, Derek leaned on the glass, hoping to get even closer to Derek. He clenched his teeth and said tearfully, “Don’t cry, Al… You’ll get well very soon if you don’t cry.”

Albert blinked his eyes slightly, and tears streamed down his face.

Just then, Quinton came out to chase the visitors out of the ward. “Alright, visiting hours are over. He has just been out of danger, so let’s visit him a few days later.”

 

Having visited Albert, everyone left with a heavy heart, and none of them spoke. Even Carmen, who was usually the most talkative, also hung her head and looked at her feet.

Michael held Carmen in one hand and Sophia in the other, wrapping his large hand around hers to pass on his warmth to her.

 

With a heavy heart, Michael said nothing as well.

It wasn’t until they left the inpatient ward that Sophia saw the bright sunshine outside. As a gentle breeze blew in her face, her mood improved a little.

Suddenly recalling something, she asked Michael next to her, “By the way… What’s that cryogenic chamber for? Why do we have it in our basement?”
