After a long time, she smiled bitterly and said, "I used to think that everything would take a good turn if I had a child for Irvin.

She was stunned and didn't quite understand what I meant. She looked at me with confusion.

I didn't explain. Seeing that she had comforted the baby, I left my coat on her and said, "You must have come in a hurry, and hence, did not pack much. I'll go back and pack some warm clothes for you. The weather will get very cold in the next few days."
