Xiu was about to speak when the door of the room was pushed open and Francesca walked in saying, "Regi, look what I found in the lounge." Xiu immediately sat up but froze the moment she saw what was in Francesca's hands. "This baseball stick has my daughter, Xiu's name on it. It looks so cool."
Darren also sat up and looked at it. Then his eyes shifted to the bandage on her hand. Right, he had one more thing to ask her. And somehow he felt like that baseball bat and the bandage around her hand has some kind of a connection but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was.
"What is your mom doing here?" Xiu whispered to Darren while panicking inwardly. She neither wanted Francesca to see her as a weak girl who fell ill so easily nor did she want her to see her as a violent kind of person who ran around with a baseball bat to beat people. Fuck! What the hell was she saying?!
