Chapter 91-A Pregnancy Test

"You will feel better if you rest," Lucy said as she helped me change and even washed my uniform for me.
"I hope the bath is helping. I just don’t understand—why didn’t you just sit in your undies? Are you really that shy?" she asked, worried about why I had worn a dress to sit in the bathtub in front of her.
"It’s alright. You don’t have to answer me," she smiled gently when she noticed I was struggling to come up with a reply.
"Have you spoken to Gavin? Wasn’t it him calling you earlier?" I asked, having noticed her phone ringing multiple times, though she kept avoiding it.
"I don’t know what to say to him right now," she admitted softly, holding a sponge in her hand as she cleaned my arms with it. She had insisted on giving me a bath, and there was no way she was taking no for an answer.
"Lucy! How will you two resolve the issue if you don’t even talk about it with him?" I said, genuinely unable to understand the argument between them.
She seemed reluctant to believe the pain in her chest could stem from anything else.
"Did you not see him take care of her hair this morning? Helanie, if your mate knows you’re insecure about someone or something, and they keep doing it, what would you think of it?" she asked.
She wasn’t wrong. I would flip out too, but at least I’d have a talk with my mate—or even an argument.
But silence? Silence could be deadly for relationships.
