She quickly squatted down and reached out her hand to move away the hair on the corner of his forehead. It was indeed Boyce’s face. Why was he here?

“Boyce.” Jasmine patted his face. There was no sign of him waking up at all.

She shouted anxiously, “Chris, quickly go and call someone.”

Chris looked at Jasmine blankly, “Ms. Burke, you know him?”

“Go and call someone!” Jasmine was so anxious that she could not help but raised her voice.

“Okay, I’ll go now.” Chris quickly ran away. He tripped over a stone on the way and fell to the ground. He was covered in dirt, but he had no time to clean it. He immediately got up and ran.

Jasmine tried to pick him up, but his body was too heavy for her to get him up off the ground. Looking at the dried blood on his head, she was very sad and her eyes became red.

“Ms. Burke.” The one who came was another teacher, called Keith, a university student.

Most of the people in this village had the surname Weeks.

Jasmine said eagerly as if she had found someone who could save her, “Quick, help me take him to the hospital.”

Keith squatted down and said, “I’ll carry him to the village.”

With Jasmine’s help, Keith experienced a hard time to carry Boyce up. Chris said, “I’ll ask the headmaster to drive the tricycle.”

After saying this, he ran off to the school.

There was a lot of sweat on Keith’s head, “Jasmine, I think you are very nervous, do you know him well?”

Jasmine said yes.

Keith lowered his eyes and continued on his way. Soon, the headmaster came to pick them up in a tricycle, “All get in.”

A tricycle was a three-wheeled vehicle with a compartment at the back for pulling crops during the busy season.

There was a seat next to the driver’s seat which people could sit on it. However, it was narrow. Jasmine climbed into the carriage and said, “Put him at the back.”

She sat down and let Boyce’s head rest on her lap.
