Chapter 41 Framed her

Georgina followed Benjamin outside. “Ben, wait!”

“Leave me alone, Gina” Benjamin said in a stern tone without pausing on his tracks. When he reach to his car, just as he was about to open the door, he got a call from his father. Grumpily, he received his call bringing the phone close to his ear. “Hey Dad.”

“Benjamin, your mother fell from the stairs and is in the hospital right now. She needs you here” his father told, his voice laced with emotions.

Benjamin's mood wasn't any better and with the news of his mother, he didn't know if he should scream or cry. Wiping his face with his palm in frustration, he agreed. “Don't worry, Dad. I'll be there.”

With that he ended the call, and felt like punching something. Georgina came and placed her palm on his shoulder. “Ben, is everything okay?” she asked tenderly, genuinely worried.

“Mom's in hospital. I need to go there” he told, his one hand on his hips while the other curling the phone.
