“Sammy?” Helen had just been about to head out to visit Boone at the psychiatric hospital when she saw
Samantha running hin tears. “Weren't you at school? Why are you back all of a sudden?”
Samantha burst into sobs and threw herself into Helen's arms, choking out the full story of what had happened
at school.
“Everyone’s talking about Boone. No matter where | go, people are laughing at me,” she cried. It had gotten to
be too much-so she simply ran home.
“Mom, when is Boone coming back?” she sniffled, her voice laced with the faintest trace of blame. “I can’t even
stay at school anymore. No matter what | do, people keep whispering behind my back.”
In truth, many students had been quite reasonable-after all, it was her brother who had done something wrong,
not her. But Samantha had grown paranoid. Every tsomeone whispered nearby, she assumed they were
gossiping about her.
“Boone’s situation is complicated. It’s not something | can explain in a few words,” Helen said, trying her best to
comfort her. “Don’t worry about what others are saying. Just focus on your studies.”
Samantha muttered under her breath, “Boone really messed up. Now I'm the one paying for it.”
If she’d known, she never would've let Boone drop her off on the first day of school.
Helen was too preoccupied with Boone to notice the bitterness in her tone. She said, “It's perfect timing that
you're back. | was just about to visit Boone. Why don’t you cwith me?”
Samantha’s expression froze for a second-but she quickly forced a cheerful smile. “Sure. I'll go with you.”
Helen nodded in satisfaction and headed toward the car, still mumbling, “Boone
adores you the most. Seeing you will lift his spirits.”

Samantha smiled stiffly and gave a vague response, her eyes already darting around.
When they reached the door, Helen got into the driver's seat and started the engine.
Samantha slowly walked to the car, and just as she reached for the handle, her foot slipped. Her face showed a
perfectly timed flash of panic.
“Ah!” she cried tically as her body toppled sideways, landing hard on the ground.
Helen heard the noise and immediately jumped out of the car, running over in a panic. “Sammy! What
happened? Are you hurt?”
Samantha winced in pain, her face twisted in agony. “Mom, | think | twisted my ankle...”
Helen crouched down to check her foot, frowning more and more the longer she looked. “Oh no... this doesn’t
look good. You'd better stay hand rest. I'll g Boone myself.”
“No, | want to go with you,” Samantha said, trying to stand. The moment she moved, a sharp pain made her
suck in a breath. Her legs gave out, and she collapsed back to the ground.
