At the hospital, Mia found a wheelchair for Jade. They visited their good friend who was resting in the Pain Department.

"Oh my, Leo, you're hurt too?" Jade asked.

Leo turned his head and looked at his visiting friends. His eyes landed on Mia, "What on earth did you say to your husband last night? He barged into my room without a word and started hitting me. What did I do wrong?"

Mia walked over to Leo, raised her hand, and gently tapped his head, "Hush, keep your voice down."

She plucked a strand of hair from Leo's head. Jade and Leo watched Mia, thinking she was punishing Leo.

"Mia, I swear I'll never have anything to do with you and your husband again in my life." Leo said.

Leo shouted angrily, loud enough for people outside the hospital corridor to hear.

Mia, holding Leo's hair, turned around and pushed Jade over to Leo's bedside. While Jade wasn't looking, she casually plucked a strand of her long hair.

"You two wait here in the room for a bit. I have some things to take care of." Mia said.

With that, Mia, holding two strands of hair, turned around and left.

Inside the room, Jade yelled towards the door, "Hey, Mia, how are two people with impaired mobility supposed to look after each other?"

...

Mia ran to the Identification Department. She completed the paperwork and handed the two strands of hair to the nurse, "If it's not the child's parents, can we use the hair of other relatives to determine parent-child relationship through DNA testing?" "If it's other relatives, we can only determine the blood relationship."

"Well, blood relationship counts. I hope you can do it as soon as possible." Mia said.

Mia's heart started racing. She took deep breaths in her nervousness, forgetting that she had left her friends in the room.

Inside the room, Leo looked at Jade, "Jade, I need to go to the bathroom."
