The call

After freshening up, Sebastian made his way back to the kitchen, where he heard his mom's phone ringing. As he stepped into the dining room, he quickly rushed to his mom's room to retrieve the phone, before heading back to the kitchen.

"Mom, your phone is ringing," Sebastian said, handing the phone to Kate.

Kate quickly took the phone and saw that it was Doctor Kingsley calling. She took a deep breath before answering the call.

"Hello, Doctor Kingsley," Kate greeted him nervously.

"Good morning, Kate," Doctor Kingsley replied. "I need you to come to my office in two hours. I can't say why over the phone."

Kate's heart raced as she tried to imagine what could be so urgent that the doctor couldn't tell her over the phone. "Okay, thank you for letting me know," she managed to say, her voice shaking a little.

"See you in two hours," Doctor Kingsley said before ending the call.

Kate hung up the phone and turned to Sebastian and Alexander, her face looking a little worried.
