Susan had never in her life felt anything more painful or horrible than what she was feeling now. Perhaps she was being torn in half and didn't even know it. Vaguely she would notice a cool damp cloth being pressed to her forehead. And she was so tired. She couldn't sleep because the pain just wouldn't go away.
Another contraction stampeded across her lower half and Susan couldn't help but start to cry. Neither Terry nor Penelope knew just exactly what she was going through. There wasn't any way possible that they could know. They weren't having this happen to them.
She felt so alone in this despite the presence of the other two people. One holding her hand and rubbing her shoulder. The other running diagnostic spells. They were there with her, but she was the only one actually hurting.
"It won't stop," she sobbed into the crook of her arm. "I can't do this. Someone else needs to finish. I'm not ready."
