Fearing that she might be disturbing her son's rest, Yue Yue disconnected the call soon. After that, she was left dreading on her own.
Cold sweat drenched her back. Yes, she was scared. She was really scared! And this fear was not in her control at all. It was deep-rooted in her bones.
She didn't want to experience the loneliness that she felt when she was thrown out of her family. Although she just saw that Hyson was doing fine, she couldn't come over her inexplicable fear.
She hurriedly gathered her wits and went to take a shower. Getting dressed, she started packing her bag in a hurry. She couldn't think of anything else other than the fact that her son was in the hospital. She knew he didn't like hospitals at all. If it wasn't absolutely needed, he would never stay in a hospital.
"Yue, are you up? I made breakfast!" came Mu Chenyan's voice from outside the bedroom door. Not getting any reply, she pushed open the door, "Are you still sleep..." Her words stuck in her throat when she saw what Yue Yue was up to. "What's going on? Our flight is tomorrow, why are you packing so soon?" Seeing the condition of Yue Yue, Mu Chenyan's face lost the easygoing expression. She stepped up and held her hand to stop her. "What are you even trying to do here? Look, you're not fixing anything."
Yue looked down and realized that indeed, she didn't manage to pack anything.
Mu Chenyan took a paper towel and wiped her sweat saying, "Did you learn about Fai?"
Yue stared at her with accusation in her eyes, 'Even you knew about it and you didn't tell me!'
Mu Chenyan was indeed guilty of this and she didn't try to shirk her responsibility at all. She placed her hands on her shoulders and pushed her to sit down. Then she poured her a cup of water and offered it to her saying, "Drink it first." Yue took the cup from her hand. "I'm sorry. I know I lied to you. But even you know that although I am a strong person, I have two deadly weaknesses. Either it's our Elle or our Fai, either of them looks at me with their innocent eyes, I'm unable to refuse. I can offer even my life as long as they ask for it."
Yue stared at Mu Chenyan and didn't react. It was the truth she didn't even have to listen about. It was way too obvious to anyone with eyes that Mu Chenyan's whole life was captured within Raelle and Hyson.
Somehow, this adventure-loving woman ended up making those two her favorite adventure.
"Just yesterday, you told me that you are strong," continued Mu Chenyan. "You wanted Fai to share everything with you and have faith in you. But have you looked at yourself right now? Just knowing that he is in the hospital, you've lost your senses. This is what scares him. And I understand him very well. I'm not saying that you're not strong and as a mother, you'd obviously worry about your son." She patted Yue's head as she went on, "As a mother, you also need to have trust in your son. Just because we call them babies, doesn't mean both of them are still babies. They can make decisions for their lives now. They are old enough. We can only guide them now."
Yue wiped her tears that fell and said, 'I understand it all. But how am I supposed to control my heart?'
"Just keep reminding your heart that Fai is your son. If his mother didn't fall when the world turned its back on her. How can he fall so easily?" She pressed her hand and added, "We are leaving tomorrow and we won't change that schedule. If you did that now, it'll make Fai feel guilty for ruining your plans. So, let's not do it. Besides, I really have to go to the sanitorium today. Just one last time."
'Just who is at the sanitorium?' questioned Yue.
Mu Chenyan sighed out, "My nephew is in the hospital. He got seriously injured during a mission."
Something changed in Yue's eyes, 'You mean Elle's brother?'
Mu Chenyan nodded her head, "Yeah. That's him."
'Is he alright?'
"Hmm... He needs a couple of months to recover completely but nothing to worry about. Being in Air Force, this much is really considered nothing. He managed to survive with all his limbs intact even when his jet crashed. That's already one of the biggest miracles for him."
'Is that how you're supposed to talk about your own nephew?'
Mu Chenyan shrugged her shoulders, "Sis, I've seen worse. If you grow up in families like Mu or Xiang, even death in wars becomes too common. So, as I said, he is really lucky to survive this." Waving her hand, she went on, "Forget about that. You're worried about Fai, look at this video I came across." She pulled out her phone from the back pocket of her pants and showed it to Yue.
The same video of Hyson singing to a little girl had gone viral this very morning. Yue didn't see her phone but Mu Chenyan had her eyes everywhere. And since Hyson looked healthy and happy in the video, she decided to use it to make Yue feel better.
And it was no surprise that it even worked because Yue instantly started smiling at the sight of her son.
Looking at her like that, Mu Chenyan felt like she understood Yue very well. She could understand her feelings as well. She was also scared when she learned about Hyson's accident but she was reassured because of Raelle. Since Raelle was there, she didn't think she needed to worry about Hyson.
Both of these women were strong in their own ways but they both had their own weaknesses as well. Just like any mother, they also dreaded to see their kids in pain. But just like any mother, they couldn't always control the circumstances as well.
Especially in Mu Chenyan's case, she believed that setbacks were necessary for anyone to grow up. So a little pain is always necessary for life.
