The robot finally broke down

Sara hurriedly stood up from the chair when she saw Ms Long entering the hospital.

"Where is Mr Li?" Ms Long asked while trying to catch her breath.

"He is in Ward C. Let's go there" Sara answered.

Ms Long did not answer Sara and just pulled her outside the hospital. Ms Long looked at Sara angrily and asked. "What happened?"

Sara could understand Ms Long's anger. Muchen was her Boss also and she seemed to be very loyal to him.

"He was punched in his breadbasket" Sara said sadly.

"Breadbasket?" Ms Long asked quizzically.

"Sorry, I mean stomach" Sara corrected. Why did she always have to use the wrong choice of word every time?

Ms Long's face turned pale instantly. "What? He got punched in his stomach? oh my God! where is he? You had to bring him to a place like this?" Ms Long asked as she looked at the entrance of the hospital.

Although the hospital looked okay, it wasn't the type of place someone like Mr Li should be in. She had to send him over to her parent's hospital this moment.

Sara ignored her and just asked "Ms Long, is something wrong with Mr Li's stomach?"

Earlier when they were in the gym, she had stole a few glances at him and saw him rubbing his belly uncomfortably.

"Sara Wang! Do you know who Mr Li is? Not only did he get hurt because of you, you even brought him to this kind of place?" Ms Long asked angrily.

Ms Long had always been nice and polite to Sara, so seeing her like this was rather odd. Sara could not take it any more and spoke out.

"Ms Long, I have always respected you since I met you. Do not get me angry."

"What? I should not get you angry? do you not know what you have done wrong?" Ms Long asked angrily.

"What about the things I have done right? why do you only care about what I did wrong? Besides, what did I do wrong? Do you know how it took me to get him into the car and bring him here? And what do you mean by this kind of place? Even when I fell sick, I never came here because of the high cost. This is my first time entering here and it is because I brought Mr Li here. Did you ask me how I got the money I deposited here? So how is it my fault? I never asked him to go with me. He insisted! I told him not to do anything either. My phone even got ruined. It's already 12am and I have not even been able to get a good sleep at home after a whole day of stress. I had to borrow a phone to assure my folks at home that I was okay. Do you know how worried they were? I am also a person!" Sara was so infuriated that she did not even care that she was losing it and raising her voice at Ms Long.

She really hated it when people tried to fault her. She had her own part of the story and she would say it out whether they wished to hear it or not.

Ms Long did not care about her ranting she just spoke furiously. "What a selfish ingrate!" Ms Long could not believe that Mr Li was able to like a girl like Sara. Someone who did not even care about him at all. "And to think i liked you for a moment. You can leave now. Get out! I'll take care of the rest. Make sure no one hears about this!" Ms Long ordered. She didn't wait for Sara to say anything else and just scuffled back inside the hospital.

Sara just stood outside. She did not know what to do or how to feel. Tears threatened to fall from her eyes but she had to compose herself

Did I do something wrong? Did I say something wrong? What is wrong with me? why do I feel this way?

She was almost at the point of breaking down but had to remind herself that she was like a robot that never broke down.

After a while, she went back inside the ward but was informed that he had already been moved out.

When? How? She had no idea. She had been standing at the entrance of the hospital. She could only guess that Ms Long had done everything secretly through a back door perhaps.

***

As soon as Sara got home, She saw her father waiting outside for her.

When their eyes met, she smiled faintly. But it didn't last. Her entire facial expression changed and tears started flowing down even as Jianjun moved to where she stood hugged her tightly.

The robot finally broke down even as she remembered the conversation she had with Muchen before he collapsed.
