This was the second time Adam had come to visit her since she was admitted to the hospital.

His appearance surprised her. “Nothing going on today?”

“Mom,” Adam started. “The medicine you told me you were taking over the phone. Did you already finish them?”

“There’s still one left for today.” Julianna assumed that her son was asking because he cared for her health. “That medicine is quite the special thing. Four of those and I’m close to recovery.”

“It’s for something important. Give it to me!”

“I can’t do that,” she said. “I can’t give it to you. I need Emmeline’s medicine to stabilize my health!”

“Go ask her for more then. I’m taking the last pack. I’m telling you, it’s important. I need it!”
