In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 101

Frances Louis would do what he said. Since he told me not to take the medicine, he would certainly throw it away if I bought the medicine back.

But if no protection, things would be complicated if I got pregnant.

I look at Frances Louis. He doesn’t seem to notice me. Anyway, I'll buy condoms in case of need.

Shelves are filled with a variety of condoms, different tastes and sizes. I've never bought this before, so I'm stunned.

Which one should I buy?

“Honey, how about the minty?”

Suddenly, a couple comes here and begin to select the condom.

Seeing me standing here by myself hesitating for so long, they look in my direction from time to time.

I feel so embarrassed that I go away and pretend to be just passing by.

After a long time of selecting, the couple finally picks up one box and leave the shelf.

I go back, to avoid being watched again, looking up and down for a moment and reaching for the nearest one.

“I need a bigger size.”

Suddenly, Frances Louis’s sound comes from behind.

I am scared and drop the box on the ground.

The man uses his slender hand to pick up the box and puts it back.

Blushingly, I turn to look at Frances Louis and don’t know what to say.

That’s so embarrassing!

Frances Louis catches me buying condoms! I don’t know how to face him!

Frances Louis moves near my ear and whispers, “Don't you know my size?”

His words make me flush with shame.

“Who knows your size! Shame on you!”

I walk away blushingly. Frances Louis takes a box of condoms and put it in the cart.

Frances Louis’s chuckle rings behind me.

It’s okay. It’s nothing.

Well, it’s lucky for me that he didn’t get angry.

I stand in line to pay the bill. Frances Louis goes out to sit in the lounge area and waits for me.

“Hi. This condom is in promotion. Buy two boxes and get one for free. Would you like to buy two more boxes?”

The cashier smiles at me politely.

But her kind question makes people behind all look at me.

Three boxes? Do I look so horny?

All I want to do now is get out of here. I don't want to be here for a second.

“No thank you. Just these…” I keep my head down and say to the cashier.

“Yes. Get us three boxes.” Frances Louis interrupts me.

Then he hints me to get two more boxes.

Damn you! Do you need so many condoms? Aren’t you afraid of dying from excessive sex?

People around laugh quietly. The elder woman behind me laughs with her shoulders shaking. She turns to her husband and says, “See how passionate young people are now.”

Ashamed and angry, I say, “I said no!”

After checking out, I pack my things roughly and go out.

“Miss! You forgot your condoms.”

The cashier’s sudden voice stops me, and I feel that my whole life turns black.

I walk back with my head down, quickly grab the box and flee away.

I have never felt so ashamed in my life, and all of this is because of Frances Louis!

“How long do you think these condoms will last?”

“Until you die!”

I say angrily, don’t want to argue with Frances Louis.

Had it not been for him, I would not have been laughed by so many people.

Fortunately, nobody knows me. Otherwise, I might have died under their ridicules.

“I wouldn’t die for a while, but I can make you feel like dying.”

“Frances Louis, shut up!”

Usually, Frances Louis looks serious. So, I am unaccustomed to hear him saying dirty jokes.

Frances Louis smiles. He opens the door and says to me lightly, “get in the car.”

“No!” I say angrily, taking a bunch of things and keep going.
