S31 90. United Again

“Philip?” Barbara covered her mouth with one hand. Tears appeared in the corners of her eyes again. But this time, the meaning was

“Philip, you’re safe?”

Barbara snatched the phone from Kara. With two hands, she cupped it as if it were a very precious object.

“Yes, Auntie. Philip is safe.”

Barbara let out a laugh. Her eyes twinkled at the figure she missed so much. However, when her laughter died down, the curve of her lips changed direction.

“Philip is fine, Auntie. He’s just sleeping. Maybe Philip is sleepy after taking medicine,” Emily explained as she sat near Philip’s legs.

“What medicine? Why is he taking medicine?”

“Fool! I would actually be more worried if he pretended to be like that. Right now, take Philip to the hospital. Tell him I will be very angry if he doesn’t arrive in front of me in ten minutes.”

“But the distance from here to the hospital is more than ten minutes.”

“I don’t care!”
