Chapter 8
“You’ve already sacrificed so much of your time to help us. How could we ask for more?”
“Miss, I had lost all hope here. I thought I’d never hear about my family again, but then I met you.”
“That’s right, young lady. The thing I look forward to most now is your room inspections. That way, I can find out what’s happening with my loved ones.”
Surrounded by their gratitude and praise, I felt overwhelmed and deeply moved.
In my eyes, I was just an ordinary front desk clerk, yet they entrusted me with such profound meaning in their lives.
I suddenly found myself loving this job even more.
From then on, every day, I threw myself into my work with even greater enthusiasm and a sense of purpose. But one day, out of nowhere, I received a call from the hospital. My mother had collapsed.
I was stunned.
Even though her temper was terrible, she had always been in good health. How had she ended up in the hospital so suddenly?
I rushed to her bedside, and there she was, lying with a breathing mask over her face.
