The nurse called out twice at the door: "Melody's family? Hey, that couple was just here a moment ago. Where did they go now?"
Two nurses were chatting while pushing Melody out. Their conversation left me feeling like I'd been plunged into icy water.
"It's their own flesh and blood after all. I heard the other one is from outside. But that man just gave up the best chance to save his own child to rescue the other one. As a result, the child from outside got trapped under a beam, with 70% of their body covered in burns."
"What? Well, I guess it's not his own child. But seeing that kid so badly hurt, it just breaks your heart."
So, John had prioritized saving Melody over Delia. My child! How desperate she must have felt.
And now he's being so heartless, wanting my child to save Melody again!
The sorrow in my heart became deafening at that moment. I don't know how long I'd been crying.
When Delia was wheeled out, I finally broke down and wailed uncontrollably.
