Bereavement

The entire house suddenly became stiff with fear, everyone were scared, how could she fall all of a sudden after speaking to grandfather?

MeiYin husband had instantly called the family doctor, and in no time the ambulance arrived.

Huiyin was carried on a stretcher while MeiYin and the other nurses hurriedly entered the car and sat at the back seat.

Hot tears had already began to fall from MeiYin eyes, she was lost in thoughts, hoping she would not lose her one and only sister.

Through out their drive to the hospital, MeiYin had been looking at her sister, she knew that Huiyin is going through a lot, but the only thing she could do was to console and comfort her, which she had been doing since the death of her husband before her condition was getting out of her hand, and was later forced to return to china.

The car suddenly came to a halt, MeiYin realized that there had arrived at the hospital and she quickly got down to help the nurses bring out her sister from the ambulance.

Huiyin was rushed to the emergency ward.

The nurses and doctors began her treatment immediately.

As usual, MeiYin and her families were not allowed to come inside the ward, they will only have to seat on a bench at a far corner, or perhaps watch them from the window.

She saw as the doctor wore the oxygen mask for her sister.

She couldn't help but wish that Huiyin should get better soon, she prayed the doctor should come out with a good news, at least he shouldn't say that she needs to undergo any certain surgeries.

Old grandfather Yu had even managed to follow them to the hospital, the old man claimed that he would be so restless if he was at home.

After a few hours, a young nurse came out of the room holding something that looks like a tray, MeiYin couldn't hold her curiosity, so she stood up to ask the nurse about her sister.

"Nurse, please how is she?" She asked with a very worried tone.

But the nurse pretended as if she didn't hear anyone speak, she just continued walking, probably thinking like, 'I didn't know you wanted to ask a useless question'

MeiYin was crestfallen, she had always hate nurses because of their rude and proud behaviors especially when she was worried.

"MeiYin, you shouldn't worry so much, Huiyin will be fine" She heard old grandfather's voice.

She went to seat and heaved a sigh of stress.

The doctor himself came out of the room, he removed his stethoscope from his ears and hung it in his coat collar, then he called on Huiyin's family member who were present.

"Liang Huiyin" He spoke, MeiYin quickly stood up, while the other family members looked back and listened with curiosity to what the doctor has to say.

"Doctor, is my sister alright?" MeiYin was already at the verge of crying.

"Yes, if course she is fine but_" The doctor was saying. And for a few minutes, MeiYin felt relieved, she remembered that the doctor was saying but. But what!

"Yes doctor?"

"She is suffering from bereavement, so you all should try to comfort her, and keep her away from those memories, so that she will get better" He explained.

MeiYin knew that bereavement or perhaps depression was expected. Its been five months since Jun Feng's death, but Huiyin still weep and cry as if he died yesterday.

"Alright sir, but can I see her now?" She asked.

"Oh of course, you can. But please don't pester her that much, and try to comfort her" He advised.

"Thank you so much Doctor"

MeiYin entered the room, and saw her sister was fast asleep, the oxygen mask was still on her nose, and she was breathing quite well.

MeiYin sat at the stool kept beside the bed, she sat facing her sister. Hot tears dropped out of her eyes as she remembered all that had happened to Huiyin.

Her first relationship with xiao didn't last for two months, xiao died the day after their engagement after they had spent the night with each other. Her first marriage to Li Jun didn't also last for one year, he died probably after their second night. And now it was so sad that Jun Feng died after one year that they both got married.

MeiYin wondered what could be wrong with her sister, was she cursed or something?

while all her friends were already in their husband's home having kids and living fine, Huiyin would be living as a widow from one husband to another, without a single child.

She must take Huiyin to see the fortune teller.

Wait! does that really still exist? No, she would take her to see a soothsayer, or a seeress.

Then perhaps they could tell what was her fate and the reasons why all her husbands and fiance had died.

Huiyin moaned, and instantly MeiYin checked on her.

"Are you alright? Or let me call the doctor" She stood up and was walking towards the door.

"Jun Feng_ pl_ please_co_me come back for me" She heard Huiyin voice cracked as she spoke.

MeiYin suddenly remembered the doctor's words and she shook with fear.

Instead of going out to call the doctor, MeiYin went back to her sister, and patted her softly on the head.

"Don't worry dear, you will find another Jun Feng soon" She comforted. She mentioned Jun Feng name, because she thought it would make her feel better.

"You think so?" Huiyin managed to speak. She tried lifting her right hand up to her nose to remove the oxygen mask, but there was drip on her hand.

"Yeah, so now don't speak again. So that you'll get better" MeiYin told her calmly and continued to pat her head. She knew that she would fall asleep again soon.

"But what if he didn't come back?" Huiyin thin voice asked.

"I told you he will, don't you believe my words?" MeiYin answered. "Now just sleep."

She stayed with her for sometime before deciding to go outside and ask someone on where and how she could find a soothsayer, she really must know about her sister's fate.
