"I'll head out to buy you some medicine," Betty Starmount offered and then quickly stood up and ran outside without even putting her coat on.

Her feet were still bare.

As soon as she stepped outside, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

It was still snowing as she peered up at the sky. Her crying intensified, the sensation of pain in her abdomen was overwhelming.

Just like that, she lied on the ground and allowed snow to fall over her.

After a long while, she slowly crawled her way up to enter her luxury car and drove away.
