"Mother," I replied quietly. She offered a warm smile in response.

"Freya, we're supposed to care for our daughter. Don't interact with him," Maya's father, Terrance, said with disdain as he glanced at me. Upon learning about Maya's death, he held me responsible.

When the doctor emerged from the emergency room, Terrance asked anxiously, "How is Letty?"

"How is my daughter, Yuri?" Gabrielle, Yuri's mother, inquired with evident worry.

"They're in critical condition. We're doing our best," the doctor replied, signaling me to join him privately in his cabin. The situation was severe enough to warrant a more detailed discussion.
