Then, he left.
Initially, the man appeared to be minding his own business and enjoying the music. But his enthusiasm faded almost instantly once the person left the ward.
Annoyance and anger overwhelmed him as he aggressively pulled the earplugs out of his ears.
Too much free time?
It’s all about controlling what I do!
…
Sasha didn’t sleep well that night.
The thought of not being there to take care of Sebastian was depressing. She tossed and turned in bed and couldn’t get a good night’s sleep.
The next day, Karl was shocked at the sight of her.
“Madam, what’s wrong? Why do you look so tired?” he asked.
“Don’t worry about it.” Sasha brushed it off.
Sasha refused to tell him the truth. All she did was shake her head.
Ironically, it was Vivian who spilled the beans. “Mr. Frost, Mommy fought with Daddy last night. That’s why she looks tired.”
“What?” Karl raised his head perplexedly, “You two fought? What happened?”
Last night, Karl was secretly hiding in a corner far from the ward.
Therefore, he missed out on the fight.
Sasha sighed. “Not sure what pissed him off. He said that we are not allowed to take care of him anymore.”
“What?” Karl was baffled!
“How can that be? If you’re not there to take care of him, how is he going to get better? There must be a valid reason if he wants you to stop doing that.”
Karl was holding a slice of bread in his hand while he reminisced the time when he first met him after the accident. The fact that he could not remember him was frustrating.
Sasha’s emotional turbulence intensified.
That’s true. He is so different from who he once was.
Nonetheless, Sasha decided to visit the hospital once more. She was not a person who would give up easily.
She took a cab to the hospital after entrusting Vivian with Karl.
“Dr. West, please come over. According to the instructions of Dr. Wallen, you’re the doctor for the patient at Ward 15,” informed Sasha’s colleague.
“What?” She could not believe what she just heard.
As she arrived in the hospital, she was hit with the news about her transfer.
The patient at Ward 15?
Isn’t him the newly admitted patient? What has that got to do with me?
