Chapter 143

Calvino waited outside Calista's room. He sat on the long chair. He leaned his head against the wall, his eyes closed, his hands clasped tightly against his chest.

Suddenly a voice startled him. "Why are you here, Vin? Who is accompanying your little sister?"

"Mom is accompanying her."

Bramantara's eyes narrowed. "Mom?"

"Yes."

A smile was etched on Bramantara's lips. "Your mom is being unfair, Vin. Your mom has arrived at the hospital but didn't tell me."

Calvino chuckled in response to his father's annoyance. Suddenly his cell phone rang.

"Who's on the phone?" Bramantara asked.

"Grandma." Calvino got to his feet, out of reach of his father, so that he could talk to his grandmother.

"Hi, Vin. Are you currently with Earl? Since it's been a few days, she hasn't returned to the mansion, and her cell phone is also off."
