Cathy knew it was a sign of menstruation. Tyrone had been by her side before,so subconsciously she wanted to ask him for help. "Tyrone, I have abdominal pain......."
She held out her hand and held nothing.
Cathy opened her eyes in a daze, which found empty side.Apparently the man had been left for a long time.There was a note on the bedside table.
"I have to go on a three-day business trip and now I have to catch a plane"
The handwriting like the man.Every word was neat,and each word was just in the right distance.
Cathy held the note tightly in her hand.She finally broke down. She lowered her head and began to cry quietly.
For three years ,she had spent countless days and nights alone.But she had never felt so sad.The piercing pain made her uncomfortable.
Besides, she caught a cold by accident.She felt so bad that she called the company to ask for leave.After the phone was turned off, she fell asleep under the covers.
Two days later, her cold went away and she felt much better.
Cathy climbed up to take a bath, and then dial the phone to Karen, " Karen,I need your help.."
Karen asked, "what's up?"
"Can you lend me some money?"Cathy knew she was not rich,her parents both were workers.It's not easy to support a family.But she was driven to the wall.
"It's for your father,right?"
"Yes."
The most famous judge of Chicago was arrested.The news was so overwhelming that no one didn't know about it.
"I need to work the night shift so I am not able to accompany with you."Karen said,"I can lend you $80,000. That's all I have."
"Sufficiently enough.I'll figure out the rest."Cathy choked,"You've done me a great service. I don't know how to appreciate it. "
