Beyond Retrieval

Summary

I had a massive fight with my husband, Gary Mitchell, while I was six months pregnant. He kicked me out of the house.

With nowhere to go and no money, I ducked into a convenience store just to get some warmth. I was staring at the steam rising from the hot food display when the cashier walked over.

"Excuse me, Miss. We have one last bottle of amnesia water left. Would you be interested in it?"

I froze, then let out a bitter laugh. "I don't have any money."

She said, "You don't need to use money. You can exchange it for something from your body."
