The sun s.h.i.+nes brightly as the plane flies across the blue sky and lands slowly in Abbe International Airport.
After two months, Katrina finally returns to her familiar hometown.
The moment the plane lands, she is unable to restrain her excitement and joy.
Katrina is finally back home.
She gets off the plane along with the crowd without carrying any luggage with her. Aside from the fake ID and pa.s.sport, she"s empty-handed.
Now that she has safely returned to Abbe City, she no longer needs the fake identification. She simply throws them into the trash can.
Perhaps because of her happiness, even looking at the flow of people gives her a kind of unspeakable delight.
After exiting the corridor, Katrina goes to the information desk and dials a number on the public telephone. The phone rings, and the familiar chime fills her ear. Aside from her joy, she feels a little apprehension.
It isn"t long before the call is answered. A familiar voice comes from the other end, "h.e.l.lo, who"s this?"
It"s been more than two months. Katrina can hardly contain her excitement and joy when she hears her best friend"s voice again. She exclaims, "Farrah, it"s me!"
At the sound of Katrina"s voice, Farrah startles and is evidently stunned in disbelief. "Is this... Katrina?"
She seems to become more certain that the person calling is true, Katrina. At that moment, Farrah"s voice unconsciously rises, "Katrina! It"s really you!"
Farrah can"t restrain her surprise, and countless questions pop up into her mind like bullets from a machine gun.
"Katrina, what happened when I went to the bathroom that day? I couldn"t find you anywhere and I almost cried from the fear! Where have you been these past two months? Why didn"t you contact me? I was so worried about you!"
Katrina has been missing for two months. After no contact from her in the time that she was missing, she suddenly gets in touch now. The news should have been a happy surprise, but Farrah"s voice sounds like she"s upset and crying.
Katrina knows that no one cares more about her safety than Farrah when she disappeared. Her best friend is only anxious because she"s extremely worried about her.
All of Farrah"s questions show her concern about Katrina.
At that moment, Katrina feels the warmth and love from her best friend.
But at the same time, she also feels a little guilty. She replies in a low voice, "I"m sorry for worrying you, Farrah."
Farrah probably realizes that her reaction just now was a little too emotional. But she has finally got in touch with Katrina. The heavy stone hanging in Farrah"s heart finally drops. She should welcome her best friend back with a warm smile.
Farrah rearranges her emotions and regains her usual vivacity. "Katrina, where are you now? I"ll come and see you!"
She has so many things to talk to her about and so many questions to ask her. They can"t keep talking on the phone. She wants to meet up and embrace her best friend in her arms.
Hearing the improvement in Farrah"s tone, a brilliant smile lights up Katrina"s beautiful face. "I"m at the airport now. I"m back!"
"Katrina, wait for me there. I"ll come and see you! I"ll get off work immediately!"
After the phone call, Farrah quickly hangs up the phone and asks the head nurse for half a day"s leave for an urgent emergency. She goes to the locker room to change out of the pink nurse"s uniform into casual clothes before running out of the hospital.
In Abbe City, there is another person who is particularly worried about Katrina, aside from Farrah. Marcellus.
When Katrina disappeared, Marcellus was the second person to find out about it.
At that time, Marcellus was anxious and upset. He even went to Hadley City to find her at all costs but failed despite his best efforts.
After Katrina"s disappearance, Marcellus"s entire disposition took a turn for the worse.
Farrah had seen him blind drunk several times. He even got into a car accident once because he was distracted with thoughts of Katrina. Fortunately, it wasn"t serious, and he only got skin trauma from the accident.
But Farrah knows how much Marcellus cares about Katrina.
Until now, he hasn"t given up on the search. He uses his personal connections to trace Katrina"s whereabouts in Hadley City.
After receiving the call from Katrina, Farrah immediately thinks of informing Marcellus.
As soon as the call is connected, Marcellus"s low voice says, "Farrah, I"m dealing with an important case right now. I"ll call you later."
After Marcellus graduated, he found his own law firm.
At the moment, he is currently meeting with an important client.
When Farrah"s call came, Marcellus a.s.sumes she wants to ask about an update regarding Katrina"s whereabouts. He plans to call her after he"s done with his work.
Simultaneously, Farrah says, "Marcellus! Katrina just contacted me! Katrina is back!"
They are stunned into silence after speaking at the same time.
Farrah quickly says, "Marcellus, resume your work. I just called to let you know so you can stop worrying so much."
Just as Farrah is about to hang up, Marcellus asks, "What did you say? Katrina is back? Where is she now?"
Marcellus"s voice is obviously shocked with a hint of urgency.
"She"s at the airport. I"m going to pick her up now."
"Farrah, wait for me at the entrance of the hospital. I"ll be there in 10 minutes!"
Katrina"s return is a matter of top priority.
In his mind, Katrina is more important than any case or any client. If he loses the case, he can take another one. If he loses the client, he can get another one.
But Katrina is the only girl he likes.
During the two months of her disappearance, he seemed to lose his soul. He spent every day in a sullen mood.
But now, he suddenly hears news of her return. How could he not get excited? How could he not be happy?
After hanging up the phone, Marcellus quickly picks up his suit and puts it on.
Sitting next to him, the big client who was talking about the case stares at Marcellus in astonishment and disbelief. "Marcellus, why…"
Marcellus says apologetically, "I"m sorry, Mr. Zhang, but I have an urgent matter to attend to. I"m afraid I can"t stay with you right now."
Mr. Zhang is astonished to see that Marcellus is about to leave the meeting. They haven"t even finished discussing the case yet. His pudgy face fills with displeasure. "My case is very urgent!"
