I was not greedy for money, but denying all my efforts and insulting me with 2 dollars was unacceptable.
When I was hit by the truck, I was extremely regretful.
……
When the phone rang again, I felt a chill run down my spine.
Looking at the familiar lab and the date on the form, I was sure that I had been reborn.
"Nancy, your phone is ringing!" a senior schoolmate reminded me in a friendly tone.
I took out my phone from my pocket with trembling hands and looked at the familiar number. I allowed the phone to turn off on its own.
"Why don't you answer it?" the schoolmate asked.
It was a call from the hospital. Thomas was out of danger anyway. It was more important for me to finish the experiment at hand.
"My phone ran out of battery."
In my previous life, I was worried that Thomas had something urgent to deal with, so I immediately called him with my schoolmate's phone. Since then, I had to take over the hot potato.
I charged my phone and continued to write the experimental report.
When I finished my work and turned on the phone, I had dozens of missed calls. I adjusted my mood and called back.
As I had expected, Thomas had an accident and hurt himself while climbing the mountain.
On my way to the hospital, I called my cousin, Alex, dozens of times and sent a few more messages.
When I arrived at the hospital, Thomas had already woken up, but he was in a bad condition.
The doctor asked me to persuade Thomas to agree to amputation, but Thomas couldn't accept the fact and made a scene.
"Who does she think she is to make the decision for me? I said I won't have the operation!"
In my previous life, his situation was urgent. I tried my best to persuade him to abandon his leg and save his life. I signed the agreement for him and undertook the risk of his operation.
"Uncle Thomas, listen to the doctor and sign. What if the condition worsens?" I tried to persuade.
But Thomas shouted, "Shut up, you jinx! I'm fine!"
"Uncle Thomas, stop being willful. If something bad really happens, you'll blame me again!"
I was so anxious that I was sweating profusely.
As expected, he roared violently, "Let me put it this way. It's none of your business whether something bad happens or not! You'd better pay the medical expenses for me instead of wasting our breath!"
He was extremely confident that he would be fine just as he was in my previous life.
