His Heart Is Now Elsewhere

Axel suddenly lifted his head.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body couldn’t help but sway for a moment. He leaned against the wall and asked again, “Can you repeat what you just said?”

Axel stood there blankly for a few seconds.

Suddenly, he grabbed the doctor’s collar and said, “Why didn’t you tell me? Why didn’t you tell me

earlier?”

The doctor was frightened by his ferocious appearance. “Mr. Sweeney, calm down a bit. It was Mrs. Sweeney who said she wanted to tell you in person. Didn’t she…?”

Halfway through the conversation, the doctor looked at Axel in astonishment as he slumped to the ground, like a fish with its bones removed, completely dejected.
