Lola only stayed in the Reed residence for a few minutes before leaving.

After seeing Lola off, Doris returned home and saw Jimmy sitting in the living room.

She turned around, intending to help her sister, Laura, clean up in the kitchen.

Doris looked at Jimmy, waiting for him to continue.

“It’s because of you, an unfilial daughter, constantly making her worry. Stress damages health–that’s why she got sick.”
