0:15 Hello there. Do you have something for stomach pain?

0:28 Is it in the lower abdomen? Any idea?
0:32 No. Sorry, I don't know exactly.
0:36 You should've asked her. Is the pain severe?
0:40 Can you just give me some medicine for now? The pain is not so severe.
0:45 That's fine. Let me pack some. But if the pain does not stop, call the doctor.
0:56 Hello, Hector. Do you have something for headache?

2:20 Alright! Give me 2 days worth of the dose. I will check with him and then buy the rest.
