Chapter 9 Part I

One Week Later

The young woman returned to recuperate at Madam Warakun’s riverside home as per the first agreed-upon condition. She was happy to breastfeed both of her children as much as possible. She had to move into the house. There was still no sign of the father who was to return and see to the paperwork and the birth certificates.
