Chapter 486 Rafael And Minerva On The Run 9
They shared dinner at her place, ensuring she was comfortable and enjoying warm food and drinks to avoid any stomach cramps, just as Zhane had advised.
They chose to remain quiet about Rafael’s situation to prevent Hera from worrying.
Meanwhile, Sasha had also forgotten to update Hera, as he was preoccupied with assisting Rafael and his team during the car chase.
Hera didn’t notice anything unusual around her; she wasn’t focused on anyone else.
During her period, she often felt sleepier than usual, with an increased appetite and cravings.
Xavier was incredibly helpful, taking on the task of running errands to satisfy her cravings, as long as they weren’t cold, which could trigger stomach cramps or worsen her dysmenorrhea.
Thanks to Zhane’s guidance, they learned what to watch for and how to alleviate Hera’s pain during her cramps.
Dave, having seen his mother endure this discomfort, easily understood Zhane’s advice, while the others were still trying to wrap their heads around the information, relying on their limited knowledge to help.
Everything was new to them, and Zhane’s education helped the group realize the pain their own mothers endured each month during their periods.
Understanding dawned on them as they reflected on why their mothers sometimes seemed irritable, moody, or easily offended, and why they craved certain foods or were fussy about meals.
They suddenly felt a sense of regret for not paying more attention to their mothers’ struggles as sons, recognizing the importance of empathy and support during those difficult times.
