I stared at her chattering mouth and asked, "If it turns out that your kidney is a match, would you be willing to donate your kidney to him?"
"Of course."
She answered righteously, and then asked me, "Have you forgotten how good Gavin was to us when we were young?"
Gavin was nice to her, but not to me.
"I heard that after donating a kidney, people can't do manual labor for the rest of your life. If something unexpected happens in the future..."
Lucy interrupted me impatiently, "Our young people won't do much physical work. I think you are just afraid of death. If I can do it, I will definitely save Gavin first."
I had been waiting for Lucy to say this for a long time. I curled my lips and opened the door. "Uncle and aunt, Uncle Lee who did the matching called me today and said that the result was wrong. Lucy can also donate a kidney to Gavin, and she just agreed to donate. This is really a great joyous event."
My uncle and aunt took the report I gave them and turned to the last page. They were overjoyed and rushed forward to surround Lucy.
"Lucy, Gavin loves you the most. It is a fate given by God that you can save your Gavin's life."
Lucy, who usually spoke of morality and justice, was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't even stand steadily.
She was not as righteous as when she advised me. She said, "It's a big deal to donate a kidney. I have to go home and discuss it with my husband."
Gavin had treated Lucy like his own sister since he was a child. My uncle and aunt thought that the "discussion" my sister mentioned was just a formality, so they happily returned to the hospital.
After the uncle and aunt left, Lucy lost her temper.
I pretended not to see it and enthusiastically expressed that when the operation day came, I was willing to sacrifice my annual leave to take care of her in the hospital.
She said nothing, and walked away angrily with her daughter in her arms.
When she advised me, she said that people only used one kidney to work, so why couldn't she do that?
Things turned out just as I expected. Lucy refused to donate a kidney on the grounds that her in-laws did not agree.
I also received abusive phone calls from my parents.
"Yuki, what were you thinking? How could you harm Lucy like this?"
"Are you going to let Lucy divorce? Come back right now."
