Listening to their back-and-forth analysis, Keira Leaf no longer had the heart to listen. What did it matter how they discovered it? It was no longer important to her. What mattered was that she would soon see her child, the one she thought about day and night!
Keira Leaf constantly fantasized about what Jack looked like now and the scene of meeting him again.
Is he taller? Fatter?
Could he be tanned?
Is he hurt...
Is he used to it here?
Would he not recognize her?
Did he miss her?
When she sees him, should she first give him a hug? Or should she...
Thinking of various possibilities, Keira Leaf couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, for a moment so nervous she didn't know what to do.
But everyone was immersed in the joy of the moment, almost deliberately ignoring another possibility at the bottom of their hearts.
But when one hour later, looking at the scenery outside the window, none of them could smile.
