126. Real Pain

Clara's tears melted knowing Lea's and Dave's feelings about the baby. She felt out of place. Their grief and pain reached her wounded heart, making her slender body feel boneless, unable to support the weight of her muscles.

The woman could only lean against the wall outside Lea's room. Her hands covered her face, crying for the umpteenth time.

Clara canceled entering Lea's room to do a health check. With tears in her eyes, she unsteadily walked back to doctor Kim's office. She had no choice but to ask doctor Kim to do the task herself.

"What happened?" asked doctor Kim with confusion. 

Usually, she would make fun of Clara, stating that she could not do her job professionally. However, Clara's current state prevented her from doing so. She knew that Clara had messed up when she called that girl to the hospital earlier.
