Tremaine looked at Yesseca and said, "You look like an idiot."
Yesseca was speechless.
Even at a time like this, he was still making fun of her.
Yesseca glared at Tremaine.
However, her anger had caused her nervousness and awkwardness to dissipate significantly.
Tremaine said, "If you don't want me to make fun of you, just come with me."
After saying that, Tremaine walked out of the restaurant. Yesseca hesitated for a moment and followed him.
Tremaine got into the car first. Yesseca hesitated before entering. "I'm afraid I'll stain your car."
Although the suit jacket covered the blood on her trousers, she was afraid she might dirty Tremaine's car.
Tremaine said faintly, "I don't even mind, what are you afraid for?"
Yesseca was still hesitating, but Tremaine pulled her in and made her sit down.
Yesseca was surprised.
As Tremaine started the engine, Yesseca lowered her head and bit her lip, not daring to make a sound.
Tremaine drove to a convenience store nearby.
"Wait for me. I'll buy it for you." Tremaine got out of the car.
Yesseca's eyes widened.
Tremaine had said that he'd wanted to go to the convenience store to buy something for her, could it be that he wanted to buy...?
Yesseca's face instantly became hot, but after a while, Tremaine came back.
His expression was strange.
He looked at Yesseca and coughed. "Do you- do you know where the aisle for hygiene products is?"
Yesseca's head buzzed.
She really didn't expect that a day like this would come. She had never thought Tremaine would ever buy female toiletries and ask her where to get them.
However, no matter how awkward it was, Yesseca had to bite the bullet and say, "They're usually in a corner." "Mm." Tremaine replied with a hum and went back to the convenience store.
Later, he emerged.
He held a black plastic bag in his hand.
As soon as he got into the car, he quickly stuffed the plastic bag into Yesseca's hand, his expression still unusual.
Yesseca looked at Tremaine's tensed face and suddenly realized that this was the first time she had seen him look like this.
She felt like laughing a little.
This was especially so, as he was a man who was always calm and collected. When she thought about this, the corners of her lips lifted.
Yesseca lamented silently to herself.
She'd felt like laughing at Tremaine, but she was the one that ought to be laughed at. She had made the whole situation so uncomfortable.
The car suddenly stopped again.
"What's the size of your pants?"
Yesseca instinctively replied, "Size S."
"Mmm." Tremaine got out of the car again.
Yesseca looked out of the car window and saw a women's clothing store in front of her, and Tremaine walking towards it.
Yesseca knew that Tremaine must have been
going to get her a new pair of pants
Buying a pair of trousers wasn't as awkward as buying sanitary pads. She heaved a sigh of relief.
But halfway through her exhale, she sucked in another breath again.
