58 The Pain Unbearable
Liling opened the door to the ward, and froze for two seconds. Her mom was sprawled on the floor, near the seat she had sat on, motionless and calm.
Liling ran to her and shook her a little violently, her heart beat extremely rapidly. She felt a piercing headache on her temples.
Let it not be what she was thinking!
"Doctor!!, Doctor!!, Somebody help!! " Liling screamed on top of her lungs. Her mom was not responding, quiet and a little bit cold.
'Has she fainted from the blood pressure again?, her hands are cold, is it so serious? '
Liling panicked, as she was about screaming again, two doctors and a nurse ran into the ward almost at the second time. They helped the reluctant Liling away from her mom, a nurse ran out to get a stretcher and he returned with two other nurses who helped him place her mom on the stretcher and drove her away.
Liling tried running after them but a doctor held her back, she struggled and struggled but because she was weak from crying and had not even eaten since, she just slumped on the ground and watched as they drove her away.
The doctors checked on her dad and after comforting her, they left.
Liling remained in the floor, staring into space.
'What has she done so wrong?, did she kill someone in her former life to deserve this kind of karma?. Before her was her dad in coma, her mom was just driven away, unconscious too.
The pain and grief was too much to bear. She felt suffocated on the floor as tears began pouring from her eyes again.
After a few minutes, a doctor opened the door and called her out.
She cleaned her eyes and stood up quickly to follow the doctor.
"How is she?"
Liling asked worriedly as they walked towards an office. She was really worried, she didn't need another sick parent at the moment.
"Let's go in first..."
The doctor's professional voice rang out. He opened the office and led her in.
Liling felt the air around them tense, she felt something was wrong but she couldn't point it out.
The doctor say across her and heaved a sigh, before starting his speech.
"Miss, in everything you do in life, you have to keep to heart that people are bound to leave you, people come and people go.
There's something that is inevitable, and that is death..."
'What was he saying?, How is he talking about death when mom just fell, obviously from a heart attack?, why is he preaching to me?'
Liling was confused as she listened to the doctor. Up until this point, he had not said what she wanted to hear.
