“Alright, I’ll be right there!”
After hanging up the phone, Serina immediately went out of the door.
The kindergarten had a food poisoning incident that many children there were poisoned and were sent to the hospital.
When Serina arrived at the children’s hospital, there were already many other parents. Some were shouting, some were keeping silent, and some were whining.
It was a mess.
Serina searched for it and finally found the teacher, Mary Shelley, who was responsible for Bella and Chelsea. At that time, Mary was explaining something to a parent.
“Ms. Mary!” Serina immediately walked over.
Mary looked at Serina with a complex expression. For such a thing to happen in kindergarten, the parents must be in a bad mood that they would not be too polite to teachers.
“Ms. Serina, please wait a moment. I will tell you about the children right away.”
“Alright.” Serina was not in a hurry. When she saw a familiar parent, she walked over.
“Ms. Red, what exactly is going on?” Serina asked.
“I heard that there was a problem with the meat today in the kindergarten. Many children have vomiting and diarrhea after eating lunch. Aren’t children with symptoms sent to the hospital?”
“Well, it’s just vomiting and diarrhea. Then it shouldn’t be a big deal.”
Serina sighed in relief.
“The children in higher grade are okay. But the children in the lower grade were not well. Most of them are only three years old, and it is easy for them to get sick.”
“How is your daughter doing?”
“She is fine. Now she is in the hospital for observation. If there are no symptoms, she can go home. How about Bella and Chelsea?”
“I don’t know yet. I’m waiting for Ms. Mary.”
Just then, Ms. Mary came over and called Serina away.
They to a corner, and Mary’s eyes were full of guilty. “Ms. Serina, this incident really came out of the blue.”
“Ms. Mary, please don’t talk about this for now. Where are Bella and Chelsea? I want to see them now!” Serina just wanted to see the children only.
“Ms. Serina, don’t worry. There’s nothing wrong with Bella. But Chelsea…” Mary looked sad.
“What happened to Chelsea?” Serina eagerly grabbed Ms. Mary’s arm.
“I don’t know why, but all of the other children recovered after injection and infusion. Only Chelsea… The doctor is currently in the clinic.”
“Mommy!”
Serina saw Bella running over as she turned around. She picked up Bella and asked, “Where is Chelsea?”
“Chelsea is inside.” Bella pointed to the emergency room.
Serina carried Bella and walked straight towards the emergency room. Just as she was about to enter, the nurse stopped her.
“Miss, you can’t enter the room.”
“My daughter is inside!” Serina was about to rush in, but the nurse shook her head mercilessly. “That won’t do. Please wait patiently outside. The doctor will come up with a plan later.”
Serina had to stay outside. She looked at the door of the emergency room and sighed.
Serina sat down on a chair.
“Mommy, I’m sorry.” Bella suddenly threw her arms around Serina’s neck.
Serina looked at Bella. “Why should you apologize?”
“Mommy, I’m sorry.” Bella was about to cry.
“Baby, what are you crying for? It’s none of your business. Are you okay? Does your stomach hurt? Do you want to vomit?” Only then did Serina remember that Bella should also be one of the children of food poisoning.
Bella shook her head. “I did not eat braised pork today.”
“What’s going on?”
“Mommy, the dishes prepared in the canteen today are broccoli, braised pork, and potato strips. Mommy, you know that Chelsea likes to eat braised pork the most and doesn’t like to eat broccoli. So she quickly finished the braised pork and she told me she was not full…”
“She said that she didn’t want to eat the broccoli and asked me if I could give her the braised pork. But the teacher doesn’t like us to waste food, so I secretly gave the braised pork to Chelsea and ate the broccoli for her.”
In other words, Chelsea had eaten double the braised pork, while Bella had not eaten a single bite.
“Mommy, if only I could take care of her a little. I shouldn’t have eaten the broccoli for her. If I had eaten my braised pork, then Chelsea and I would have been fine just like other children. But now Chelsea is lying inside. The doctor has been treating her and she hasn’t come out.”
Bella said and fell into tears.
Serina knew that although the two children were born at the same time, the birth time of Bella was only ten minutes earlier than Chelsea, while Bella was more mature than other children and had always taken care of Chelsea.
Serina held Bella in her arms and wiped her tears.
“Baby, this is not your fault. Really.”
“No, Mommy, it’s my fault. It’s all my fault. You always correct Chelsea to not let her be picky. I shouldn’t have spoiled her!”
“Alright, baby. Chelsea will be fine. You don’t have to blame yourself. You didn’t do anything wrong.” Serina patted Bella’s back gently.
“Mommy, Chelsea will be fine, right?”
“Chelsea will be fine. At most are just a few more injections. This incident will teach her a lesson. Don’t blame yourself, okay?”
Bella nodded.
Although Serina comforted her daughter like this, she was still nervous.
She thought, ‘That was to say, Chelsea only ate braised pork and rice, and the braised pork was doubled.’
Serina knew that Chelsea had always been a glutton. She had strictly asked Chelsea to chew thirty times in each bite, but Chelsea wouldn’t follow that.
Chelsea often had a stomachache because of indigestion, and the children’s indigestion tablet was a common medicine in her family.
When Serina thought of this, she could not help but worry.
She kept telling herself that Chelsea would be fine.
The door of the emergency room opened, and Serina immediately stood up with Bella.
“Is Chelsea’s family here?” a doctor asked.
Serina immediately walked over. “I am Chelsea’s mother!”
“Ms. Serina, your daughter is in bad condition now. Her vital signs are unstable and we need to take her to the ICU. This is her critical condition notice.”
“Critical condition notice? What a joke! She just ate something bad and had diarrhea!”
