Doctors and nurses hurried in and transferred Sonia to an adjacent operating room.

"Miss, could you please wait outside?" a nurse asked kindly, guiding Sarah out before shutting the door behind her.

Standing outside the now-closed door, Sarah was overwhelmed by panic, fear, and worry, breaking into tears. As she wiped her tears, she whispered to herself, “It's all my fault. Why did I have to say that? It was too much."

Thinking of the image of the flat line on the heart monitor, she wept uncontrollably.

Aziel arrived just then and found Sarah crying helplessly outside the ward. He immediately set down what he was carrying and came over to comfort her. "What happened? Why are you so upset?" he asked with concern.
