She was dumbfounded. The pain had probably become unbearable as she instantly took the glass of water over and swallowed the medication.

I put the rest of the medication aside and said softly, "The medication doesn't cause many side effects. If the pain is unbearable, you can take one or two to relieve the pain."

She looked at me with pursed lips. Her eyes fell on the yard, and she said, "You sound nasally. If you've got a cold, don't come here and spread it to me.
