“Sorry, I have an upset stomach. I need to stay here a bit longer, but I think I’m almost done,” Ethan said with difficulty. He seemed to be uncomfortable judging from the tone of his voice.

There was only one way in and out of the men’s room, and Ethan couldn’t have gone anywhere, so Janet didn’t think too much about it. “I’ll wait for you outside the bathroom.”

After a slight pause, she pursed her lips and added in a concerned voice, “If you don’t feel well, do you need me to look for some medicine for you? Maybe you ate something bad. Do you have diarrhea?”

But as far as she could recall, she and Ethan had eaten the same food that day.
