Chapter 8: Go back?

Linus felt that his body is on fire. Something burned him inside. He felt the pain coming from deep within his heart. He can't even breathe. All he wants is to be away from this pain. He can't stand it anymore. But he can't move! How can he just lie down and let this pain come upon him?

"Enough!" he yelled.

His scream echoed inside his head. A burning sensation inside of him is eating up his mind. He can't think straight anymore. The pain is too much to bear. He can't even stand. Is this real? Was he dreaming? Linus felt himself falling to the ground. He can't even control himself anymore. He tried to stand but he was too weak. He felt his consciousness fading away.

"Ah, it's better to be that way so that their daughter is still in good welfare." Millicent just stared blankly at the two old women who were talking.
