-Chapter Thirty Nine-
The minute I get the news, I freeze on the ground.
This is just way too much to bear.
Blood oozes down my thighs right that moment, and I feel an excruciating pain hit my lower abdomen. The pain is tremendous and I almost stumble on the ground when Ramon grips me tightly. I feel dizzy and my head is spinning around. I can't see clearly. Everything is blurry and vague.
"Doctor!!!"
Ramon yelps for help as he swiftly sweeps me off my feet. I am feeling light-headed and the pain in my lower abdomen is worsening. The dizziness overwhelms me and before I know it, everything goes black and blank.
