I carried Miss Tang to the outside of the cave, the entrance was blocked by stones. I put Miss Tang down on the empty space next to the entrance and asked her how she felt, exactly what was uncomfortable.
She said she had abdominal pain, I went to press her stomach, she said it's not stomach pain, but lower abdominal pain.
My gaze moved to her lower abdomen, and what I saw was shocking. I looked at her, then at her belly, my gaze went back and forth twice.
"What's wrong?" She was pale, lying flat on the ground, without any strength to sit up by herself.
"Did you... enter the desert while pregnant?" I asked uncertainly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Is this a time to joke?"
"I'm not joking, your stomach is bulging." I couldn't explain what I saw, so I supported Miss Tang's neck and back and let her sit up to see for herself.
