"Really? Do I look awful?" Grace raised her hand and touched her cheek.
"That's right. Your face is so pale. There's no color at all. What's wrong? Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll accompany Austin," Jasmine offered.
Grace shook her head and forced a smile. "I'm fine. I might have caught a cold. It was chilling outside."
Jasmine asked worriedly, "Are you sure you're fine?"
"Yeah, sure," Grace assured her.
"Alright, then. I'll leave her to you," said Jasmine.
Grace looked at Austin and closed her eyes in sorrow.
Her phone suddenly rang. Grace took it out and checked. It was Justin, whom she had not contacted for a long time.
"Hello? Justin?" Grace pressed the answer button.
Over the phone, Justin hesitated for a while before asking, "Grace, how are you?"
Justin's words were simple, but Grace could no longer hold back her tears. They fell.
Even though she tried hard to control herself, Justin could still hear her soft sobbing.
"Grace, where are you?" Justin asked.
Grace cried bitterly. "Justin, I'm in the hospital. Austin's sick..."
Justin's heart tightened. "Which hospital? I'll be right there!"
Justin hung up the phone and arrived not long after.
He was breathing hard, looking like he had run up the stairs.
Panting, he asked, "What illness does Austin have? Where's Brian?"
Grace covered her mouth and said slowly, "Leukemia."
