“Why call her? Just to hear her say no need again? Josiah thought. He wasn’t into masochism and definitely didn’t want to set himself up disappointment.

Zach and the others exchanged glances. After Josiah’s comment, they figured it was better to keep their mouths shut.

After seven, Sienna told the nurse quietly, Til step out for a bit. I’ll be in the outer room. Just call me if you need anything?

“Alright,” the nurse nodded.

Sienna grabbed her backpack and headed outside.

Meanwhile, Josiah and the others had finished eating. Chester and James were gone, leaving only Zach to discuss business matters with Josiah.

Sienna walked straight into the kitchen without looking their way, She pulled out a lunchbox from her backpack containing boiled corn and hard- bailed eggs.

The eggs were ready to eat once peeled, but the cold corn was tough to bite into. So, she popped it in the microwave for three minutes. When she took it out, it felt scalding hot. “Ouch, that’s hot she exclaimed,

“Call a doctor!” Josiah shouted.

“Got it.” Sienna pressed the call button. At the same time, Josiah dashed out, yelling for help.

In less than a minute, the medical staff arrived.

“Family, please step outside for a moment,” the nurse said, pulling the curtain around the bed to shield the scene from them. They were about to start an emergency procedure, and it was not something the family should witness.

“There’s mucus blocking the airway, Use the suction?

“The mucus is too thick. It won’t come out

“Add saline solution to thin it

“Sienna“” Josiah reached out to grab her but missed.

“How did you get in here? Family members, please leave!” the doctor called out firmly.

“Let me give it a shot!” Sienna shouted, urgency in her voice. She didn’t wait around for an explanation.
