Everyone was moving forward,
But Beta was going backward, making her progress exceptionally difficult.
She even nearly fell down several times.
Having participated in evacuation drills, Beta knew all too well what would happen if she fell at this moment.
She did her best not to fall, calling out loudly, "Angel! Angel!"
But no matter how loud she shouted, the crowd always drowned out her voice.
Beta even witnessed firsthand how people stepped over an elderly woman who had fallen to the ground, trampling her in their rush to escape.
She also saw other children separated from their parents, crying out.
Human frailty was so apparent in the face of disaster.
But Beta could no longer afford to worry about that.
Because her daughter was just like those children, anxiously waiting for her.
Beta continued to push through the crowd in the opposite direction.
"Angel! Angel!"
It was then that she suddenly saw her daughter right in front of her.
