When she looked at her phone, she was shocked to see she had 33 voicemails. She unlocked her phone screen and clicked on “Voicemails” to see who had sent the messages.
Her mom had sent all those messages. She said to herself, “Is she serious? I just went out for 1 hour.” She shrugged this off and started to listen to the messages. “My sweetheart, where are you? You said you would come back after 30-45 minutes.” The first 20 messages were like that. But when she started the 21st message, her mother was crying and said, “Ariana, your father has been shot. We are going to the hospital. Please come here.” She couldn’t believe it. She ran out, took a taxi, and went to the hospital. She couldn’t stop her tears and asked the secretary where her father was. The secretary said, “Upstairs, room 123.” She thanked her, then ran upstairs. When she saw her father, she almost had a heart attack. Then she walked to her father’s bed and looked at him as he opened his eyes.
He said to his daughter, “Don’t worry, I will come back after 3 weeks, and your mother won’t call you that much right now. OK? Now go back home.” And she went back home.
