Edgar comforted Carina as they left without hesitation.
I pounded on the car window with my bloodied hands, but Edgar, feeling irritated, pressed the gas pedal, causing me to fall to the ground.
Thinking of my children, barely clinging to life, I struggled to get up and desperately chased after the car.
Just as I was about to run out of breath, my phone rang.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Mckay. We did everything we could."
At that moment, I wished a car would hit me and end it all, so I could be with my children.
But then I remembered their lifeless bodies lying cold and alone in the morgue, waiting for someone to claim them.
They had never known the warmth of a family while they were alive. How could I abandon them in death?
When I reached the hospital, I nearly fainted at the sight of their two lifeless bodies despite having steeled myself along the way.
When I gave birth to them, I endured a day and night of agonizing labor. And after they were born, the twins had been frail because of their congenital heart disease.
Others always said that this pair of twins was my karmic debt, but I had always believed they were my precious treasures.
