Chapter 210: A New Life
I woke up the next morning with a headache and I felt weak and sick all throughout the day at work. After around three days of this, I knew that something was wrong. I tried my best to hide my condition from Reiner and tried to handle it on my own.
I sighed loudly as I stared at my computer screen, although my mind was elsewhere. I knew what the symptoms of what I had looked like, but I shouldn’t jump to conclusions. I waited for lunch break to start before heading alone to a nearby pharmacy.
The old lady at the counter looked at me dubiously before scanning the barcode and asking for payment. I handed her some cash and told her to keep the change before heading out in a hurry. I felt her eyes on my back and wished that she would just mind her own business.

“You can just let me out here. No need to send me up,” I told Reiner briskly.
“Are you sure? I’m not in a hurry so I can walk you to the door,” Reiner replied with a smile.

I have to say that it’s my first time using this. After reading the instructions carefully, I sat down on the toilet seat and followed the instructions.
