Miya listens to the content of the phone call, as if a liar is cheating on money.
"Andre's math teacher?" she repeats doubtfully.
The other party says, "Yes, I am his math teacher."
"But I remember Andre is always at home, how can he be with the math teacher?" Miya wonders.
"Today Andre brings his younger brother and younger sister to my house to ask some math problems. They are all well at the beginning, but when they go back, Andre has a car accident."
"Which hospital is that, tell us, we will go immediately."
"We are now..." The teacher says the address, and then says, "You must be faster. Andre seems to have entered the intensive care unit."
"OK."
Miya hangs up the phone. Since Miya has hands-free, Alex also hears clearly what the person says. He asks, "Honey, shall we go?"
"It's better to believe it, if it's false, then we can go back, but I'm afraid it's true." Miya listens to the person, except that it is indeed suspicious at the beginning, but later, he can answer all of her questions...
And... The voice of the dreamer rings in her ears, "It will be your children..."
She is a little flustered, what if she really hurt her children because of her own emotion?
Alex doesn't speak, but Miya is very worried, and immediately says she is setting off.
"Honey, wait, I'll go with you." Alex pulls Miya and then goes with her.
When they arrive at the hospital, Miya immediately runs towards the intensive care unit. When she arrives there, she really sees a middle-aged man wearing a beige coat.
"Hello, are you Andre's math teacher?" Miya asks.
The middle-aged man is worrying and is almost startled when he hears Miya's voice. He wants to ask her identity, but looking at her face like Joey, he stops asking.
"Andre has been in for more than an hour and has not come out yet, and the doctor has not told me the situation."
"Over an hour?" Miya doesn’t believe her ears.
The man nods, "Yes." He is a little flustered. After all, Andre is with him before the incident. If Andre hurts, he should take the responsibility.
"What about other children?" Miya asks. "Don’t you mean that his brother and sister are with him?"
The man seems to know something, he says, "Oh, you mean those children, they are now in the intensive care unit too."
"What?" Miya can not have imagined that there can be other people in the intensive care unit, and they have been there for so long.
So, Miya pushes open the door of the intensive care unit, the door is not locked, she easily enters.
Miya thinks she will see something that makes her feel distressed. As a result, she only sees her son calmly sitting on the bed, eating and chatting with the other two children.
The doctor and nurse are looking at them from the side.
"Andre, what's going on?" Miya asks, and she has reached Andre's front, hugs him in her arms, looks left and right, making sure that he is well, and finally she is relieved.
