“Franklin, wake up!” Mrs. Knight shouted.
But the child in the bed, but no movement at all.
“Hello, 120? Call the emergency vehicle …”
In the hospital, the child in the bed had his eyes closed and was on a drip, and Mrs. Knight next to him had an anxious and worried look on her face.
“What’s going on!” Brayden barged right into the hospital room.
“I don’t know, I went to get him up this morning and I never could … get him up,” the woman replied, choking back a sob.
“Ma’am, take your time, I’ll go ask the doctor.” The man immediately ran to the doctor’s office.
“The child is too small, he should have had surgery before, the conditioning is really good, but his mood is too depressed lately, which is not conducive …” the doctor explained.
Instantly, Brayden was blinded.
Franklin has been at school and home lately, how could he be depressed?
“Madam, is there something unusual about the child recently?” The man looked at the woman in front of him worriedly.
Mrs. Knight hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up.
“Every day at dinner time, he always asks again when Dolly will be back.”
“He said he was worried about his mother, afraid that she was being bullied … by people outside,” Mrs. Knight whispered.
At once, Brayden’s eyes dimmed.
So it was because of Dolly!
The man immediately took out his cell phone and dialed it, but the other party did not answer the phone. Perhaps he was really too anxious, so he simply took two pictures of the child in the hospital bed and sent them over.
“Ding!”
Dolly immediately opened her phone and froze instantly.
Without the slightest hesitation, she dialed it directly.
“What’s going on, what’s wrong with Franklin?”
The anxious voice, the urgent tone, made Brayden feel as if this woman was right beside him.
“The doctor said the child has been in a depressed mood lately.” Brayden said slowly.
Could it be because of himself?
Dolly panicked, her eyes flashing a little self-condemnation.
“Mrs. Knight said that Franklin always asks when you’re coming back every time we have dinner, and he’s called me many times.” The man whispered.
At this moment, Dolly’s eyes were red and her body was trembling a little.
“Dolly, if there is nothing particularly important, come back, the child needs you now.”
The woman could no longer control her emotions, rushed to hang up the phone, curled up on the sofa, hands clutching her knees, crying and in pain.
It was because of herself that the child was lying in the hospital!
A teardrop, sliding across the woman’s cheek, soaked the pillow under her head.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
The knock on the door kept coming, but at this point Dolly acted as if she hadn’t heard it and didn’t respond at all.
“Dolly!” Jayden, at the door, yelled.
No one opened the door.
Jayden got anxious and rushed to the front desk.
“Thud!” The door was kicked open viciously.
What caught the man’s eye was a woman who was sleeping with swollen eyes.
“Dolly,” Jayden gently shook the woman’s body.
There was no response.
The man looked around, and there were no pills or anything like that.
Fortunately, she did not do anything stupid.
Jayden went into the room, took a blanket and covered the woman, squatted down himself and watched Dolly.
What was wrong with her? Was she crying so painfully? Is it because of Brayden? Or …
Instantly, Jayden’s eyes dimmed.
I don’t know how long it took, but the woman on the couch slowly opened her eyes, only to find that Jayden was lying on the edge, eyes closed.
“Jayden …,” Dolly nudged the man’s arm.
She wanted to say that she was going back home, and she wanted Franklin to get better quickly.
Seeing the man’s sleeping form, the woman slowly sat up, put the blanket over Jayden, and slowly walked towards the room.
“Dolly!” suddenly, the man behind her shouted.
“Did something happen to you?” Jayden placed the blanket on the couch and walked toward the woman.
“I’m going back to my country.”
The woman’s firm eyes, and unquestionable expression, caught the man a little off guard.
“But you haven’t had your final checkup yet.” Jayden rushed to speak.
And that, to this woman no longer mattered.
“Jayden, I really appreciate you bringing me here for a checkup, but I have something very important to do.” The woman turned around and went straight to packing her bags.
Suddenly, the man stepped right up and stopped Dolly, looking seriously at the woman in front of him.
“What was it that made you even care about your own life, wasn’t it Brayden, wasn’t it!” Jayden grabbed the woman’s arm tightly.
“You let go of me, it hurts!” The woman struggled.
At once, the man’s eyes flashed a trace of heartache and hurriedly let go of Dolly.
“I’m sorry, I got a little excited.”
“It’s Franklin, the baby is in the hospital …,” the woman explained in a low voice.
But so what! That child, only Mrs. Knight picked up, not biological, why care so much!
Jayden scratched the back of his head, really can’t figure out what the woman in front of him was thinking in the end.
Looking at the busy figure in the room, the man knew that it could not be stopped.
Forget it, let her go.
“I’ll go back with you.” Saying that, Jayden turned around and walked towards his room to pack his bags.
Dolly froze for a moment, then regained the expression on her face, he wasn’t angry anymore?
…
In the hospital, Franklin lying on the hospital bed, looking out of the window, eyes dull and melancholy, next to Mrs. Knight a burst of helplessness, and heartache.
“Ding ding ding …”
Mrs. Knight looked at the caller ID and rushed to pick up the phone.
“Hello, Dolly?”
The child rushed back and looked aside at Mrs. Knight.
“Really? Okay, I got it, I’ll give the phone to Franklin,” said the woman, rushing to hand the phone to the child.
“Mom.” Franklin’s voice, a little haggard, but still can not hide the excitement mixed with it.
“Franklin, mommy will be back soon …” Dolly lowered her voice and spoke.
She was afraid that if she couldn’t control her emotions, she would lose her voice when she heard her child’s voice.
“I miss you so much.” The child said in a resigned voice.
“And Daddy and Grandma, we all miss you so much.”
At once, Dolly was speechless.
She didn’t want to miss them, but how long she would live was still an unknown, and she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to accompany them to the end.
“Yeah, Franklin’s up and looking happy.” Suddenly, Brayden walked into the ward with fruit.
The man’s voice coming from the phone made Dolly miss it a little.
“Daddy, it’s Mommy!” Franklin pointed to the phone excitedly.
Brayden froze for a moment, then smiled.
“Mom’s calling you.” The man spoke slowly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
