Cough. Cough.

  What's happening? I can barely breathe. My chest hurts. My coughs really hurt. Am I dying?

  Cough. Cough.

  “Clarence!” Hiro yelled while panicking.

  “What!” Clarence got up and ran to Hiro’s room.

  “I don't know what's happening. I can't breathe, my chest hurts, and my coughs are awful.” Hiro blurted out while crying.

  "Hey, hey, calm down.” Clarence comforted Hiro. “Do you think it's bad enough to go to the hospital?”

  “Yes!”

  “Alright, ill call an ambulance. Try to calm down and focus on your breathing.”

  Clarence called an ambulance while trying to help Hiro. The ambulance arrived and rushed Hiro to the hospital. Clarence went to the hospital in his car and called Robin. It was 1 AM for Robin when Clarence called him. He usually doesn't call him in general, so calling him at this time was alarming for Robin. Robin answered alarmed.

  “Clarence? Is everything alright?”

  “Listen, Robin, Hiro is being rushed to the hospital.”

  “Wait, wait, hold on, what do you mean?”

  “Hiro woke up with an awful cough and could barely breathe.”

  “Wait what?!”

  “I'm sorry, but I've got to go. I'll update you when I get an update.”

  “Alright, please tell me immediately.”

  “Also, could you tell Hiro’s parents.”

  “Yes, I will. Thank you for telling me.”

  “Yeah, no problem.”
