1/2

When Xander burst into the room, Melanie was standing there, her face deathly pale. She was frozen in place as though she was still answering the call, but her phone had fallen to the floor.

The phone screen was still lit, and a voice was coming from the speakers.

“Are you Albert Lancaster’s family? Please come to Paramount Hospital as soon as possible to take over the deceased’s remains-”

Xander jerked his head up to look at Melanie, but her face was numb and blank. She felt Xander’s gaze and stared blankly at the phone on the floor. Then she slowly crouched down, picked up the phone, and asked in a trembling voice, “Did you call the wrong number? When I went to the hospital yesterday, Grandpa was still fine.”

“Are Ms. Melanie Smith? This is the contact number you left at our hospital-”

Melanie had yet to react. She crouched on the ground with her phone in her hand, her eyes filled with confusion.

“Hello? Are you Ms. Melanie-?”

The voice on the phone called her name again, and Melanie slowly came back to her senses. Xander reached out to help her up, but she swayed on her feet and stood up. Then she walked out of the room as though in a dream.
