'Daddy said he'll be right here soon. Does it mean he's in S City now?' Huey thought as he ran towards his mother.
"Mommy, Mommy! Daddy said he'll be right here soon and asked us to wait for him," Huey exclaimed in a cheerful voice.
"Really? He's back?" Annie said, surprised. She let out a long sigh of relief. Although she wasn't so sure why, she trusted Rain. She was confident that he would know what to do.
"Yeah. I told him Joyce has a fever, and he said he is on his way." Huey was elated. From their short phone conversation, Huey could tell that Rain loved him and Joyce very much.
