2024-03-23 23:28:16With a tempest of emotions raging within him, Calvin stormed back to Lizzie's hospital room, his heart pounding with anxiety and anger.
His mind is full with how to find a good doctor who will treat his sister. He was half regret his decision of not signing the divorce paper for his sister’s sake.
However, just as he burst into the room, his eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of another patient occupying the space where his sister should have been.
The shock sent a wave of panic coursing through him, and he frantically scanned the room, searching for any trace of Lizzie.
Where was his sister?!
Spotting a nurse hurrying past in the corridor, Calvin lunged forward, desperation evident in his voice as he called out to her.
"Wait! What happened to my sister? Where is she?" he demanded, his tone a mix of fear and frustration.
The nurse, preoccupied with her duties, turned to face Calvin with a look of mild irritation. "Mr. Hudson, I am sure you know what happened. . Your sister's room had to be vacated due to unpaid bills," she replied matter-of-factly, her voice lacking any hint of sympathy.
Calvin's fury ignited at the nurse's indifferent response. "Unpaid bills? But we were trying to arrange the payment! Where have you taken her?" he pressed, his hands trembling with agitation.
The nurse's expression remained unchanged as she interrupted and reiterated the hospital's policy. "I'm sorry, sir, but I don't have that information. You'll need to speak to the billing department," she replied curtly, already moving to attend to another task.
Feeling a surge of frustration and helplessness, Calvin's desperation turned to anger as he attempted to push past the nurse to search for his sister.
“Where is my sister? You cannot just throw her away!” he exclaimed.
However, before he could take another step, security personnel intervened.
“Sir, you should leave right now!” their stern voices demanding that he cease his disruptive behavior and leave the area immediately.
Defeated but undeterred, Calvin reluctantly allowed himself to be escorted away, his mind racing with worry about Lizzie's safety.
With each passing moment, his anxiety intensified, driving him to frantically search every nook and cranny of the hospital in a desperate attempt to locate her.
“Lizzie! Lizzie!” he called.
As he made his way towards the elevator, hoping to descend to the lower floors in search of his sister, Calvin's heart sank at the sight of the crowded carriage. Realizing he couldn't wait, he turned towards the emergency staircase, his steps quickening with a sense of urgency.
But in his haste, disaster struck.
With a sudden slip, Calvin lost his footing on the stairs, his hand instinctively reaching out to steady himself. However, the sharp edge of a step sliced through his skin, leaving a deep gash that began to bleed profusely. Grimacing in pain, Calvin gritted his teeth and pressed on, his determination to find Lizzie outweighing the physical agony he now endured.
“Dammit!”
As Calvin descended the stairs, each step echoed with the pounding of his heart, the rhythm of his fear. “Oh no! What fell from above?”
Reaching the ground floor, Calvin heard a voice yelling and was met with a scene of chaos.
The atrium was quickly filled with a throng of people, their voices a cacophony of concern and alarm.
“What happened?”
He heard a few people asking but no one answered due to the chaos.
“She suddenly fell!” someone said.
Desperation clawed at Calvin's chest as he pushed through the crowd, his eyes frantically searching for answers amidst the turmoil.
"What's going on?" he exclaimed, his voice quivering with fear as he pleaded for information.
A bystander turned towards him, their face etched with worry. "Someone fell from the second floor," they replied, their words landing heavily in Calvin's mind like a lead weight.
Dread settled over Calvin like a suffocating blanket as he approached the balcony railing, his gaze fixed on the scene below. With a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach, he spotted a figure lying motionless on the pavement, the sight sending a shiver down his spine.
Driven by a primal instinct, Calvin bolted out into the courtyard, his mind a whirlwind of panic and disbelief. The air was thick with the sounds of frantic shouting and pleading, the crowd's collective fear palpable as they gathered around the fallen figure.
Heart pounding in his chest, Calvin fought his way through the throng, his eyes never leaving the form lying prone on the ground.
With each step, his dread mounted, his thoughts consumed by a desperate prayer for his sister's safety, a plea that echoed in the depths of his soul.

Dream
The night air felt cold, piercing Calvin's skin even though his body was wrapped in a thick, warm blanket. The chill came from a dream slowly dragging him back to a childhood he had nearly forgotten.In his dream, Calvin stood in the hallway of his old house. The white walls had begun to yellow, and the carpet on the floor looked worn. He heard the soft laughter of his younger self, probably around seven years old. Moments later, he saw little Calvin running around aimlessly before he collided with a young woman carrying a cup of tea."Calvin, don't run around the house! It's dangerous if this hot tea spills on you," the woman gently scolded. Her face was warm. Her hair was loosely tied back, and her eyes looked at Calvin with a tenderness that always made him feel safe.Mom... adult Calvin whispered in his heart. His blood rushed at the sight of his mother and hearing her voice again—the voice that had long disappeared from his memory—filling his chest with a tight, aching longing."
It Should’ve Exploded
A subordinate knelt before President Lee, the supreme leader of Han Xin, who sat on his throne and looked down at the man with a haughty expression. “What news do you bring me this time?” he said mockingly.The atmosphere in the room was suffocating and tense, filled with the cruel aura that emanated from President Lee—even when the tyrant wasn’t committing any atrocities.“Forgive me, my lord. Calvin is still alive, and he survived the plane crash with ease,” the man explained timidly.President Lee’s face immediately hardened. His eyes darkened, and his fists clenched tightly. “You couldn’t even kill a cockroach?” he hissed sharply. “Are you sure you did your job properly?”The subordinate didn’t dare answer directly. He bowed even lower, almost as if trying to disappear into the floor. His knees trembled violently, and cold sweat began to drip from his temples. His breath was ragged, unable to bear the burning gaze of President Lee. His courage shrank to nothing—even though the Pre
Rebirth of Bacca
Destroyed buildings from the war greeted Calvin at every step as he walked through the city of Bacca. Debris was scattered everywhere. Barrion—his homeland—was now free from the tyrannical rule of Han Xin... but the remnants of destruction were overwhelming.Calvin's steps halted at a vast field, once known as the city center. Around him, nothing remained but rubble and charred pillars. His eyes swept over the scene, his expression difficult to read."I'll start by rebuilding the houses and structures in this area first," Calvin said."Please do, Sir," replied the President, who stood not far from him, nodding respectfully and giving Calvin the space to do as he wished.Without a word, Calvin stepped forward. He knelt down, pressing his palm against the ground. Instantly, the earth trembled, compacted itself, and began to rise, forming solid buildings with supernatural precision. Wooden elements emerged from the soil, weaving into walls, rooftops, and sturdy pillars, creating rows of
The Rise of Barrion's Guardian
The plane began to shake more violently. Emergency alarms wailed incessantly, making the atmosphere even more tense. Passengers—including two government representatives from Barrion—screamed, some cried, others clung to their seatbelts as if they could save them from death.Meanwhile, Calvin remained calmly seated, though his body shook along with the turbulence. His eyes focused on the window, then on a flight attendant who ran past the cabin aisle in panic.“The cabin's losing pressure! Navigation system failure!” came the pilot’s voice from the cockpit.Calvin slowly stood, walking toward the front, keeping his balance with effort.“Open the door,” he ordered sharply upon reaching the cockpit.“We’re trying!” The co-pilot looked pale. “The main engine is completely dead, we—”“If we panic, we die. Stick to the plan. You head toward the nearest airport for an emergency landing. I’ll help as much as I can—just focus on landing the plane safely.” Calvin stared at the wildly blinking s

His hands trembled as a nurse finished reattaching his severed pinky. The pain from Calvin’s brutal and unexpected act of cutting off his finger was unbearable—but the most excruciating pain wasn’t in his finger. It was in his pride. Kevin’s ego was shattered by the fact that he had to go to Calvin and beg him to return the severed piece.“This is all that bastard Calvin’s fault, Dad!” Kevin growled, his voice shaking with emotion. “He dared to humiliate me—me,
