Arabella's movements finally came to a halt, and the actions of all the doctors in the room followed suit.
All the medical equipment indicated that the patient had completely lost vital signs. There was no hope
left.
Arabella glanced at the clock on the wall, and solemnly announced, "Time of death, December 28, 7:23
p.m."
The doctors and nurses in the operating room all bowed their heads in silence, bidding the patient their
final farewell in this manner.
Scenes from the past kept replaying in Arabella's mind.
“Arabella, I heard you just moved back home. How are you settling in?"
“I heard you used to live in Summerfield too. It's been ages since I last visited. Shall we go for a
shopping spree sometime?"
"Let's go to the Cave Diner!"
“Do you mind if I chat with you on WhatsApp?"
Crystal's voice and laughter were still lingering in her mind.
Tears welled up in Arabella's eyes as she pulled the tubes out of the girl an the bed, covered her with a
white sheet, and said in a hoarse voice, “Take her out."
The movements of all the doctors and nurses were silent, but the unseen sadness was overwhelming.
When the door opened, Celeste saw her daughter covered with a white sheet. She was hit with a wave
of grief, tears streaming down her face.
Alger couldn't believe his eyes until the gurney was pushed in front of him. He trembled as he slowly
lifted the sheet.
The girl's face was pale, lying peacefully on the gurney, motionless.
Alger's hand trembled as he placed his finger under his daughter's nose. There was no breath. He
moved his hand to her neck. There was no pulse.
One moment she was talking to him, the next she was gone.
"Crystal!" Alger broke down, throwing himself onto the sheet, crying his heart out.
"How could you just leave us like this? How could you bear to abandon your parents? How is your
mother going to live without you?" Celeste clung to her daughter's body, crying uncontrollably.
Kenneth and Louisa were heartbroken. They couldn't believe that such a lively, bright, and intelligent
girl was suddenly gone. Their tears flowed uncontrollably.
Clark, standing to the side, had red-rimmed eyes. Tears rolled down his cheeks.
In his mind, he kept seeing Crystal's brilliant smile and hearing her cheerful voice.
"Clark, what have you been up to lately?"
“Lunderstand a girl's mind better. Next time you guys go out, take me with you. I promise to make your
sister happy."
“Your mom bought me lots of beautiful clothes, I'm so happy."
"Clark, did I say something wrong to upset you? I'm sorry"
Clark's shoulders shook as he looked at the girl lying on the gurney. He remembered the cold morning
when she came to see him with breakfast.
“know Carol is in your heart, and I know you'll never like anyone else in this lifetime. I'm just clinging to
the hope that I could maybe change your mind. I do like you. I used the excuse of being ‘bros’ to get
close to you.
Now that you two are back together, I sincerely wish you happiness. Even though I can't be your
girlfriend, and I can't get over you quickly. Just knowing that she's back and your smile will be even
brighter than before, that alone satisfies me."
"Clark, as long as you're happy, it doesn't matter who you're dating, even if it's not me. Although, it
does hurt a little"
