Alice sat huddled on the couch with her hands on her stomach, wincing.
Her pain was worsening after getting off the phone with Wyonna. It felt knife-like.
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She felt shivery, even with the heater turned on.
Just then, someone knocked at her door.
"Alice, are you in there?" It was Daniel.
Puzzled, Alice hauled herself to her feet and walked slowly to answer the door.
"Daniel? Aren't you supposed to be at Disneyland?"
"I've eaten so much at dinner that I can hardly walk. I think I'd better come back and get some rest." He gave a little cough and passed a bag to her. "I heard what Alice said on the phone. I got you something for your upset stomach."
"Oh, thank you, but I've taken some meds." She looked at the bag with her hands behind her back, not having any intention to take it. "You're not feeling well either. You can keep those to yourself."
