Zachary then fell into Serenity’s laughing spell.
He laughed until he almost hit the street light. He swerved in fright and managed to avoid the collision.
Serenity was so startled that she forgot to laugh.
When it was safe, she said, “Zachary, is your driving okay? I can drive instead. My driving skills are exceptional. Racing won’t be a problem either.”
“I got my driver’s license when I was eighteen. I’m an experienced driver. Just now was just an accident. I laughed too hard and got distracted.”
Serenity was a little stumped before she finally said, “Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore. You focus on driving.”
She turned her head to look at the old lady in the backseat. Seeing that the woman seemed to be sleeping, she reminded her husband, “Nana is asleep. Turn down the music.”
Zachary did as he was told.
Mrs. Lane stayed at Liberty’s house and did not follow them back.
Serenity yawned. “I’m sleepy too.”
“We’re almost home.”
“I’ll just take a nap. Wake me up when we get home.”
“Your nap will last until morning. Don’t sleep. Home is just ten minutes away. Let’s talk.” Serenity gave him a side glance. “We might die if I talk to you.”
Zachary was speechless.
He spoke after a while. “Serenity, in my life, no one except for you has attacked me like that. “I’m telling the truth.”
Serenity leaned on the headrest and took out her phone to watch short clips. Some clips were particularly funny and dispelled her sleepiness, and they finally made it home.
Grandma May seemed to have a built–in alarm clock in her body and woke up just as Zachary parked the car.
Everyone was tired after working all day. Grandma May did not tease the couple and went upstairs to wash up and go to sleep.
She already knew that the young couple was staying together, so that meant Serenity was not shy anymore. She moved her everyday items to Zachary’s room.
Zachary watched her move her belongings piece by piece. His eyes were full of affection.
He very much liked this feeling of them having each other in their lives.
He took her pajamas, handed them to her, and said in a soft voice, “Go take a shower first, Seren. It’s very late now. Rest early and sort it out tomorrow.”
“What time is it?” Serenity asked but she took out her own phone to check the time.
“It’s half–past eleven!”
She muttered, “It’s so late. I’m going to take a shower.”
She took the pajamas he handed her, went to get the toiletries she was using, and entered the bathroom.
By the time she came out of the bathroom, her skincare products were already sorted by Zachary.
“Seren, I arranged it for you. What do you think? Which brand do you usually use?”
Zachary was fishing for credit.
Serenity only glanced at it, then climbed into bed and went to sleep. Her body was curled up with her hands covering her stomach.
Her stomach hurt.
In the past, she would only have abdominal pain on the first day of her period. This time, however, it only started to hurt today. It might be because she ran around and overworked during the day.
“What’s wrong, Seren?”
Zachary noticed something was wrong with her and quickly walked over. He sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out to tug her body, and asked with concern, unwell?”
“My stomach hurts.”
“Are you feeling
“Your stomach? Are you bloated because you ate too much during supper?”
Serenity glared at him.
“No? Then why does your stomach hurt?”
Serenity rolled over and turned her back to him. “You won’t understand. I’ll be fine if I lie down and bear with it for a while.”
Zachary frowned.
He stood up then bent down to pick her up from the bed again. His handsome face said seriously, “I don’t know medicine, but a doctor does. I’ll send you to the hospital. Don’t try to endure it. It’ll be too late for regrets if you bear with it and it turns out to be a big problem.” “There’s no need to go to the hospital. I just… It hurts because I’m having period cramps.”
Zachary paused before saying, “Your… period… O–Oh. I get it now.”
He quickly placed Serenity back on the bed. “Why does it hurt?”
He had no clue that period would bring pain to women when Aunt Flo visited.. There were no young girls in his family, and he had no contact with women except those from his father’s generation.
Thus, he genuinely had no idea about such things.
When Serenity had her period, he would make hot cocoa for her because he had seen his father prepared it for his mother before. That was why he knew that girls could drink hot cocoa during their menses.
“Maybe it’s hurting because I was out and about during the day, and because of the cold weather. Please brew me a cup of hot cocoa.”
“Okay, hang in there. I’ll go prepare it for you now.”
Zachary quickly rushed to make the hot drink and even called his mother while he was in the kitchen.
“Zack, your mom is asleep. Call again tomorrow.”
The person who answered the phone was his father.
“Dad, can you wake Mom up? I have something to ask her.”
“What’s so important that you have to ask her now? I told you, your mother is asleep, so don’t wake her. Tell me what’s the issue. Maybe I can help you solve it.”
In Liam’s opinion, his son’s problems were not as important as letting his wife sleep.
“Dad, do you know of any medicine that can relieve menstrual cramps?”
Liam said after a pause, “Are they for you?”
Zachary was speechless. “What are you talking about? My wife needs them.”
“You scared me to death. I thought you went for a sex reassignment surgery and became a woman. Although your mom and I want a daughter, we’ve long accepted the fact that we only have a son. We’re looking forward to having a granddaughter now. Don’t even think about getting a sex reassignment surgery.”
Zachary was amazed by his father’s thought process to be able to think of something as absurd as a sex reassignment surgery at this hour.
“Go get a warm compress for her to apply to her abdomen. You can also make her drinks like hot cocoa or chamomile tea. Actually, just have a child soon and it’ll be fine.
“Your mom was like that in the past too, but she got a lot better after giving birth to you. Her cramps would only hurt badly when she was tired.”
“All right, I get it.”
