As soon as Kai Piers got off the plane, he was to be taken to a hospital room immediately. The sooner the better, no delays, no dawdling.
When Kai's bed was wheeled out, Aurora Dupont felt as if her feet had suddenly grown roots, she couldn't lift them.
Conversely, Mila Dupont and Danton Piers ran out from beside her one after the other, and then stood aside timidly, obediently staying away, not disturbing anyone.
After a good while, Aurora lifted her heavy steps and slowly walked over.
He was still with his eyes closed, pale lips, looking like he was asleep.
Mother Piers squatted down and was talking to the two children.
Father Piers was at side, overseeing the entire situation.
Aurora walked to Kai's bed and didn't say anything. She just reached out and placed her hand on the back of his hand.
She quickly removed her hand, leaving a path for the medical personnel, and watched as Kai was swiftly wheeled into the ambulence that had been arranged cars earlier.
