Frans bowed deeply to the four in front of him. The man thanked them for taking care of him for three days.
Joe even kindly gave his favorite car for him to wear. Not only that, the middle-aged man also gave a backpack containing clothes, instant food, and money as a supply of refueling. Frans had intended to go home to his apartment first to take his passport and other identity cards. To get there, he took about twenty-four hours to drive.
"I will not forget your kindness" Frans said.
Sam ran and hugged the man again, but they had embraced Frans saying goodbye.
"Are you coming back here, Frans? I can wait for anything." The boy looked at Frans with teary eyes.
Their short meeting time, did not dampen the closeness of the two. Frans taught various kinds of martial arts that he mastered, to Sam and Ace.
Ace was just standing next to his father, too embarrassed to hug Frans back.
"I can't promise" Frans replied.
Sam let go of his embrace and stepped back. Frans ruffled Sam's hair before finally getting into the Jeep.
Just as she was about to run her car, suddenly Emma made a sound. The girl ran towards Frans and opened her beloved starfish bobble necklace.
Still in the steering wheel, the man lowered his head towards Emma. A request from the girl.
"This is a necklace made by my late mother" Emma said as she put the necklace around Frans' neck, "keep this necklace and return it to me when your business is done" the girl whispered. The distance of their faces are fairly close to make Frans can see clearly, the blue bead belonging to Emma is so stunning.
Unexpectedly, Emma landed a farewell kiss on Frans' cheek, before stepping away from there.
Frans flinched for a moment. He held the pendulum Emma tightly. There was a handful of foreign feelings present tickling his niche.
Emma, Joe, Sam, and Ace suddenly waved their hands, as Frans drove his car away from there.
"Please, come back." Inner Emma.

Zenaya had just managed to calm Krystal down. The woman was asleep after crying for a long time.
He stared at the brother-in-law deeply with a sad face.
Last night, she got word from Adryan that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were rushed to their hospital, having been involved in a back-to-back accident.
A fully loaded tronton truck suddenly rushes from the back of five running cars. The front three were only moderately damaged, while the two cars behind were badly damaged, including Jennia and Krystal.
Their driver suffered a severe head injury and is still unconscious in the ICU. The operation has not been performed because it is too risky. Not to mention his extremely low blood pressure levels. They had to wait until the man's blood pressure was at its normal threshold.
While Jennia, the mother-in-law, suffered severe injuries due to a hard impact on the chest. The collision caused fractures to two of his ribs to rupture his lungs. This caused hemothorax to occur in his lung cavity.
Krystal herself was not seriously injured, but due to a hard impact on her stomach, she had to lose the baby she was carrying.
The condition of the woman was indeed the lightest compared to the driver and his mother-in-law, because she sat on the right.
For Jennia, the operation was done last night. However, his condition is still in a critical state.
Noah walks into Krystal's treatment room. His face looks so sloppy.
"Sorry to trouble you, Zen. I'll take over from here, you better go home and get some rest" Noah said. He felt bad, because his sister-in-law had accompanied the wife since early in the morning
"It's okay, Brother. Rey's gonna be there any minute, so I can wait for her." Zenaya smelled a smile.
"Thank you, Zen," said Noah.
Zenaya nodded her head. "How's Mama doing, sister?"
Hearing the question posed by the sister, cloudy again adorned Noah's face. The man nodded slowly.
Zenaya was silent for a moment. "I'm going to see Papa. You can rest first, while Krystal sleeps."
Zenaya exited the Krystal treatment room and walked towards the ICU room on the second floor. His father and mother accompanied Craig there
"Krystal how, Zen?" craig asked as soon as he saw Zenaya. In addition to worrying about his wife, he also thought about the condition of the son-in-law who had just lost his future son.
"Sir Krystal just went to bed, Pa," replied Zenaya.
Craig breathed a sigh of annoyance. I don't know why a big problem suddenly approached them.
Not long after, the Reagents arrived at their place. The man ran to his father to ask his mother. Not to forget, he also greeted his father and mother-in-law.
Zenaya looked at the astonished Reagen. The man did not return his eyes at all. He seemed oblivious to Zenaya's presence there, when clearly Zenaya was next to Craig.
When the reagent sits in the back seat. Zenaya touched his shoulder gently.
Jerky reagents.
"Mama's gonna be fine." A smile on Zenaya's face. He tried to understand the eternal feeling of the husband, to make the man was not aware of his presence.
Reagen nodded and clasped Zenaya's hand tightly. He kissed the wife's entire back and palm, but was completely reluctant to return his gaze.
"You why?" ask Zenaya suddenly. Although Reagents tried to look ordinary, there was still a bit of uncomfortable feeling in the woman's mind.
"Why, how? Of course I'm very worried about Mama" Reagen said.
"I know you're worried about Mama, but there seems to be something else you're reluctant to tell me." Zenaya reviewed a friendly smile.
Hearing the words of the wife, Reagen looked agitated. The man took Zenaya's hand off and asked for permission to go to the toilet for a while.
...***...
Inside the toilet, Reagen tipped the sink glass to cause his hand to hurt. Guilt soared in the man's heart.
"Suck!" maki Reagents. Though he had tried to act ordinary, but Zenaya easily realized it in less than five minutes.
The shadow of the wife's face made Reagen cover her face rough. For now, he really could not look at the woman's face.

Note:
Hemothorax is a condition in which blood collects between the chest wall and the lungs. This area is the area where blood collects, known as the pleural cavity. The buildup of blood volume in this space can eventually cause your lungs to collapse when blood pushes against the outside of your lungs.
The most common cause of hemothorax is trauma to the chest. Examples include falling hard on the front of the body or having a car accident and part of the vehicle hitting the chest very hard.
