“So, how is Elma feeling lately?”

Calvin’s expression darkened as memories of his last visit to Elma surfaced. She had appeared exceptionally lethargic, and upon awakening, she seemed lost in a foggy state. This was clearly not her usual self.

Calvin felt a surge of frustration but was momentarily at a loss for words. He gathered himself and said, “I’ll get the proof.” Then, Calvin hurried away.

Jake gazed at Calvin’s retreating figure, his gaze wavering briefly before he exhaled a subdued sigh.
