Once they got in, Armand handed Genevieve a bottle of water.
The discomfort in her stomach eased after she drank two mouthfuls. When she saw that Steven was about to drive away, she quickly said, “My car is still here.”
“Just get it tomorrow.” Armand ordered Steven, “To the hospital, Ste—”
“No!” Genevieve interrupted him.
Turning to look at Genevieve, he remembered that she didn't like the smell of hospitals. Hence, he changed his mind and instructed Steven, “See if any pharmacies are still open nearby.”
“All right.” Steven then drove away from the entrance of the bar.
As Genevieve was still unwell, Armand rolled down the window on his side to allow some fresh air in.
Soon, Steven found a pharmacy that was still open. Just when he was about to get out, Armand told him to stay in the car and went into the pharmacy himself.
Two minutes later, Armand came out with a spray in his hand.
Genevieve wanted to treat herself, but Armand was having nothing of it. He placed her left leg on his lap before taking her sock off and giving the swelling a spray.
The mist had a cold bite to it, and quickly, Genevieve felt the pain in her leg ease significantly.
She pursed her lips. “Thank you.”
“Don't mention it.” Armand put the spray back into its box and handed it to her. “Use it three times a day until it's no longer swollen.”
“Okay.” Genevieve opened her bag and put the spray inside.
As it had been snowing since the afternoon, all the rooftops along the way were covered by a layer of snow which made for a gorgeous sight underneath the dim yellow street lamps.
The shops on both sides of the street were all closed, and there were barely any other cars on the road.
Right then, Genevieve noticed that a fruit store that had oranges piled high in front of it was still open.
“Steven, stop the car,” Genevieve said. “I want to buy some fruits.”
She wanted to buy something sour or spicy just to satisfy her craving.
