In the guest room, Nora was busy with her daughter. Xiu was trying to sleep but couldn't do so. She looked in Nora's direction and wondered, 'Isn't she tired just staring at the little girl? What exactly is she looking at?'
Of course, she couldn't understand Nora's feelings at all. Neither did she receive a mother's love nor did she know anything about a mother's feelings.
"I'm gonna get some water." Xiu got up and left the room. She was licking her dry lips repeatedly because of how dehydrated her body was feeling after vomiting so many times during the day. It was a good thing that she didn't feel like vomiting now. But she wasn't feeling much better.
Nora saw her leaving and suddenly her eyes fell on the water bottle that was placed on the side table. "Water is right here. Why did she go out then?"
