Yi-jun:Holly! What's wrong? What happened?

Holly:Taylor's dead! He...had...stomach cancer. It all makes sense now.

Yi-jun:His stomachaches, headaches, bad moods-and he threw up at the reunion!

Holly:He had no energy and was so pale and skinny. Why didn't I see it sooner?

Yi-jun:Maybe the hospital got the wrong person! Call Femi. She works in that cancer ward 1.
