She turned and looked at Caroline before wiping away her tears and going over.
âYes, Carol.
Iâm here.
Are you feeling okay? Should I get the doctor for you? Caroline shook her head and knitted her brows.

Even the three children looked griefâstricken.

âCan anyone tell me what happened?â However, all she gained was silence.

âWhat are you doing.
Scott? Let go of the kids and Aunt Greta!â Scott said gently.
âCarol, I donât want anyone disturbing our conversation.
Donât worry.
Iâll let them stay in the neighboring ward at the moment.
Caroline looked at Scott and found him a complete stranger.

Scott placed the fruit basket on the bedside cabinet and said tenderly, âYou canât leave this ward even if you crawl back up, Carol.â
