Why did he call so many times? What could have happened? She answered the phone immediately.
âLucinda.
â Kysonâs voice was tense.
âSomething happened to Colbyâ¦â
Lucinda felt her heart race wildly.
It took her a moment to collect herself before she managed to ask, âWhat happened to Colby? Whatâs going on?â
Nathan, sensing the tension, immediately stopped and turned to look at her.
Kyson sighed deeply on the other end of the Line.
âItâs nothing too serious.
Iâm at the hospital now.
Theyâre doing a full examination on Colby.
Come if you and Nathan are back in Stastle.
â
As the call ended, Lucindaâs mind raced with worry.
Kyson had taken Colby to the hospital for a check-up.
Was it an accident or an illness?
The uncertainty gnawed at her, making it impossible to stay calm.
Nathan put his arm around her shoulders.
âDonât worry.
Kyson said it wasnât a big deal.
Besides, Iâm here with you.
â
Lucinda clung to his hand and nodded.
As soon as they exited the airport, they headed straight to the hospital.
In the waiting area outside the examination room, Kyson sat on a chair, staring at the floor.
No one could tell what he was feeling.
Lucinda ran up to him and asked, âWhat happened?â
âColby vomited milk earlier this morning.
He hasnât had a good appetite or been in high spirits lately.
Zenia thought he also had a fever, so she tried calling you.
When she couldnât reach you, she called me.
Last time, I had the Payne familyâs doctor check on him, and he said Colby was fine.
But with him getting sick again so soon, I decided to bring him to the hospital for a full check-up,â Kyson explained.
Lucinda asked anxiously, âHas the result come out yet?â
Kyson shook his head.
âNo, itâs going to take a while.
â
The atmosphere in the corridor was heavy with tension.
Staring at the examination room door, Nathan asked, âWhy did Colby suddenly get sick? I remember he always ate less than Destinee and wasnât as healthy as her.
â
Kyson sighed, âZenia noticed Colby didnât have a good appetite and slept a lot.
But she thought it was just because of individual differences and didnât pay much attention to it.
Lately, his condition has worsened.
This morning it became unmanageable.
â
Lucinda said, âItâs useless to speculate anything.
We need to wait for the results.
â
Nathan stood still, his hands clenched.
He had a bad feeling about this.
Ever since Colby was born, his health had always been an issue when compared to Destineeâs.
Could this have anything to do with the S404
