The car carrying Althea sped down the road, tailing the ambulance ahead. Her eyes stayed fixed on the flashing lights, her hands wringing together in her lap in a desperate attempt to ease the gnawing anxiety—though it was useless. Her vision blurred with tears that refused to stop. Beside her, a hotel staff member tried, futilely, to calm her.“Can’t we go any faster?” Althea’s voice broke as she wiped at her wet cheeks. Her gaze never wavered from the ambulance.“We’ll be there soon, Mrs. Althea,” the staffer reassured gently. If their roles had been reversed, if it had been his child lying injured, he probably would have been screaming too.“Oh God… Josh…” Althea pressed her hands to her face. “What if he—? This is all my fault. I never should’ve let him go.”“Please, try to calm yourself, ma’am. I’m certain Josh is strong. The ambulance is headed to the best hospital in Mighatan. The doctors will take good care of him,” the staffer said carefully, measuring every word.Althea shoo
