Henry Sullivan nodded silently after a moment: "Okay, but if I return to the troops, I might not be able to answer calls anytime."
"Then I'll text you," Isla Linton blurted out, and immediately felt somewhat regretful afterwards.
She bit her lip: "Eh, I'm running out of time, Brother Henry, I'll go first, goodbye."
Her cheeks flushed as she turned and ran away, Henry Sullivan shook his head with a smile and turned to go home.

He didn't think much of it, just assumed that maybe her mother had just had surgery and needed her care.

The surgery was very successful, and indeed Isla was busy running around in the hospital every day accompanying her mother and her brother.
Turned out, her brother was also hospitalized in Anchester Hospital, and because they hadn't found a matching bone marrow, his days were numbered.
