he pulls out some papers these are the medical records of your previous surgeries. they were much more painful and risky. you were much more selfless back then. look at the medications you were taking. they were much more addictive and stronger. look at the dates of your surgeries and how close together they were.

paces back and forth, hands clasped behind her back Trendy products, huh? That could definitely attract a new clientele.
