Lucky

It was an ordinary day. We got up early, had a whole day class and caught the bus back to Eton Hall. Nothing seemed to be wrong. While, after I had supper, I heard from one of my classmates from HIT that another classmate called Liu Yangfan was send to hospital immediately after school, for there was serious pain in his kidney. On hearing this, I was shocked. How could that happen? I had just talked to him yesterday. At that time he even played jokes with us. Later a call came. It was from the classmate who went with Liu Yangfan. He told us that after testing the urine, the doctor said Liu Yangfan perhaps had something with his kidney and he probably should live in hospital. So another classmate and I immediately took some money and hurriedly took the bus to hospital.
About half an hour later, we got to NUH. There we saw Liu Yangfan sitting on the chair and waited for his turn to see the doctor. Besides our classmate, there were another two people sitting beside him. Then we knew that they were local and happened to meet Liu Yangfan on his way to hospital. So they came in company with Liu Yangfan and helped him to communicate with the doctor. Then the speaker said that it was Yangfan’s turn to see the doctor. We had to wait outside anxiously. Then we chatted with the two locals. They were also NUS students and this was their final year in NUS. They all had projects to do. But they still spared some time to be with us. We felt so appreciated.
A few minutes later, Yangfan came out. The doctor asked him to take the X-ray. After the X-ray, we and Yangfan had to wait outside for the result. About one hour later, the result came. He had nothing serious. There was a small stone in his kidney. By drinking enough water, the stone could come out itself. On hearing this, we were so happy that there were nothing serious.
We are now in Singapore. As classmates, we have to help each other. And so locals are really helpful. We appreciate it very much.
