"Hello, is this the family of Lily Carter? Unfortunately, she was declared brain dead at 2:23 p.m., June 28. Please come to the hospital as soon as possible…"
Everything went silent.
I was practically shoved by the person behind me onto the plane, not processing a single word the doctors said to me through my phone.
I only knew that there was a man on the plane, a total idiot…
Crying like a madman.
I couldn't believe it. I'd only just spoken with Lily through the phone a day ago, and she even asked me to take good care of myself, saying that she would wait for me to go back to her.
