"Time is confirmed. Are you free next Friday?"
On the other end of the phone, Ernest's voice was clear.
"Yes," Andrew said.
"Well, it's Friday then. My friends will be flying into City H on Friday night."
"Okay."
The call hung up. A simple, but important call.
"Andrew, who were you just talking to on the phone?"
Sarah looked at him, peeled a grape, and stuffed it in her mouth.
The corners of Andrew's mouth twitched when he saw that she wasn't prepared to reward him in the slightest.
"Ernest made sure to check your body next Friday. Now, your consciousness is often a little confused. Sometimes, I don't know which one is you."
Sarah paused, then, the corners of her mouth curled up as she laughed at herself, "I'm sorry for even bothering you to keep worrying about me."
"I'm not tired. I just need one of your grapes."
Andrew raised a finger in front of her. His thin, white finger was as straight as a long pencil.
He raised an eyebrow and what he meant was clear.
"Open your mouth."
Sarah then tossed an unpeeled grape into his mouth.
"So sweet!" Andrew said with satisfaction.
On Friday, Ernest came over with his friends, who were the top specialists in psychiatry everywhere. After a series of tests, they finally gave the results.
After hearing the results, Andrew rushed over to see Sarah.
Sarah looked at his face and asked nervously, "Is it that I'm not doing well?"
Andrew suddenly laughed and said, "Ernest and the others said you are fine. You have only just developed the disease and are in the budding stage. They have a ninety percent certainty of curing you. So, you must not worry and keep an open mind and accept the treatment."
"Really?" Sarah asked in surprise.
Andrew was relieved to see her so happy, then nodded and responded to her seriously, "Really!"
Sarah was also relieved to stop worrying and turn to accept the treatment actively.
Ernest was in full charge of her illness and Andrew was much relieved.
Things were gradually getting better.
He did not expect that Emily would come once and say something to Sarah, and then Sarah's illness would worsen again. The previous efforts of Ernest and the others were in vain.
Andrew rushed to the hospital and tried his best to calm Sarah down, and finally, when he came out of the ward, he found that Emily had not left.
"Andrew, I didn't mean it. I really didn't say anything. I don't know how she suddenly became like this." Emily said as she cried, "Is Sarah okay? If anything happens to her, it's really hard for me to have peace of mind."
"How did you get here?" Andrew asked.
"I was just passing by. I saw Sarah here, so I came to check on her." Emily continued to play kind.
Andrew was about to say something else when Anne came in. She was not as nice as Andrew, but started scolding Emily as soon as she saw her.
Emily could only go away awkwardly.
After she left, Ernest said to Andrew, "Andrew, this may not be that simple today."
"What do you mean?" Andrew looked at her in confusion.
"We checked Sarah's body and found that she had no signs of miscarriage at all, which means she's never been pregnant before, let alone had a miscarriage."
"What's going on?!" Andrew looked at him in surprise and felt a sudden surge of anger.
Ernest carefully told him what happened. When Sarah was in trouble, it was his people who arrived first and found that something was wrong with Emily.
"You'd better check out Emily. This incident may have something to do with her." Finally, Ernest came to a conclusion.
