The onlookers were discussing and some of them were taking videos. They were whispering to each other like they were watching a clown.
"What the hell are you doing? No shooting! Just go away!" Maisy covered her face with the purse, pushed the passers-by away and got in her car hastily. On the way, she had twisted her ankle and she added it to Aurora's fault. She swore that Aurora would be sorry the next time they met!
Maisy returned to the hospital. She stood at the door, took a deep breath and then went in, "Nevaeh, I..." Before she finished speaking, she saw Sion sitting by the bed and peeling an apple.
"When did you come back?" frowned Maisy. She had tried very hard to hold back the anger but she felt it surging up her chest again. Moreover, she was about to take it out on Sion.
"Some time ago." Sion glanced at her, handed the apple to Nevaeh, and then turned to Maisy again, "I saw you leave in a hurry. Where have you been?"
Hearing it, Nevaeh took a bite of the apple and looked away unnaturally.
"Where else would I be?" Maisy looked at Nevaeh but averted her eyes from her quickly. Suddenly, she looked at Sion and said, "Come out with me. I wanna ask you something."
She put down her purse and went out of the ward first. Sion rubbed his forehead and tried to soothe his agitation away.
"Take a nap. We'll be right back." He glanced at Nevaeh and said.
"OK," Nevaeh said with a smile.
Sion went out of the ward and closed the door gently. Nevaeh watched them leave, smiled and took another bite of the apple. Probably, Maisy was going to seek justice for her.
"What happened to Aurora? How did she carry another man's child?" Maisy asked with her arms akimbo in the empty hall.
Sion was leaning his back against the wall.
