As expected, Sabina comes to knock on the door again. I cover myself under the blanket and pretend
not to hear anything.
In the afternoon, my fever is finally gone.
I feel hungry. I quietly open the door and look around. Sabina doesn't seem to be at home, so I go to
the kitchen to cook food.
When I go downstairs, I see an empty bowl on the table and I know Sabina has finished the noodles I
cooked for her. But she said she didn't like it. What a hypocritical woman!
I curl my lips and go into the kitchen to cook some dumplings for myself.
Mindy calls while I'm still eating.
"Jane, I'm back. Come on! Let's hang out!"
Mindy sounds energetic.
She seems to always be so full of vitality. When I am down, she is like sunshine, illuminating my world.
It's been a long time since I saw Mindy last time.
In fact, I haven't contacted her for a long time ever since last time when I returned home.
It is only three o'clock in the afternoon, and Frances won't come back so soon. So I agree. My face
looks pale for the fever, so I wear a light make-up and go out.
Mindy waits for me at Wonder Plaza. When I arrive there, she is coaxing the baby in the stroller.
I feel so sad.
If my child was still alive...
Mindy sees me and understands what I am thinking. She smiles at me and says, "David has gone on a
business trip today. I'm so boring at home. Come on! Let's go shopping."
Mindy holds me with one hand and pushes the stroller forward with the other.
In the stroller, the baby looks around with curiosity.
The baby looks just like David. David is very handsome, so this baby is very pretty, attracting people's
attention all the way.
I don't want to mention those sad things, but I still can't control myself.
"If only my child is still alive..." I say sadly, tears rolling in my eyes.
"It's all because of Frances! That bastard! Even the most vicious animal will not eat its cub! But the
bastard just killed his own child! Holy crap! I swear I'll kick the hell out of him if I ever see him again!"
Mindy clenches her fists and says with anger.
Mindy is my best friend, and she really cares about me. However, I am still hiding something from her. I
don't think it's good.
After thinking for a while, I confess to Mindy, "Mindy, actually, I'm married to Frances."
"What?!" Mindy turns around and feels so shocked.
Then she reaches out her finger to stamp me in the head.
"Are you mad? You should have killed him. Why would you climb onto his bed? Is your head full of
shit?"
Mindy is so angry with me that she even curses in public.
Considering that there are too many onlookers, I whisper to Mindy, "Let's find a place to talk."
It happens to be time for dinner, so we find a restaurant and I tell Mindy about all my thoughts.
Mindy looks at me helplessly and sighs.
"I think you will fall for it again. You will have nothing left then."
"No way. I hate Frances. I hate him for taking my child's life. I won't forgive him and I won't let him off," I
say firmly.
Mindy shakes her head and smiles without saying a word.
I know that she might not believe me, so I just remain silent and eat.
"What's that man doing?! Holy crap!" Mindy suddenly exclaims.
Then she slaps on the table and stands up.
We sit by the window and there is a secluded river outside. What did she see? A naked man?
I look out and happen to see a man placing a child by the trash can by the river and leaving in a hurry.
I can see it clearly from the second floor.
That child looks familiar.
I stare at the baby for a while and suddenly recognize that it is Whitney's
child!
