Meanwhile at the ladies’ restroom.
Initially, Arielle still felt awkward for Vinson to help her buy physiological supplies. But as the pain in her abdomen increased, she could not bother about other stuff. At that instant, her body fell utterly weak.
Just when she thought she could not hold any longer, Vinson’s voice echoed from outside. “Arielle, are you still in there?”
Arielle used her remaining strength to respond, “I… I’m in the first cubicle.”
“Okay.”
Vinson walked over to the front of the restroom and passed her the sanitary pads.
Arielle lowered her body and took it with difficulty.
She had a hard time just tearing the sanitary pad open and putting on her pants. She broke out in cold sweat and was drenched, by the time she was done.
She had never encountered such a severe condition before, which was most probably due to endocrine imbalance and an unaccustomed climate.
After confirming there was no leakage on her pants, she let out a sigh of relief.
She stood up and wanted to open the door. But after she took a step, she blacked out and fainted.
NO
Vinson, who was waiting patiently outside, heard an abrupt thud inside.
He immediately shouted, “Arielle, are you okay?”
His question was greeted only with silence.
With that, a bad feeling arose within him, and he kept on knocking forcefully on the door.
“Arielle, can you hear me?”
Still, there was no response.
