The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1943

Unfortunately, Melody was unable to find any sanitary napkins after searching every corner of her school bag. She remembered putting them in though, as she had always been in the habit of packing her bags since a young age. Preparing for the next day was something of a routine for her, so she did not have any doubt in her mind that she had placed the sanitary napkins in her school bag. As a result, it was rather puzzling that they disappeared right after she was done with gym class.

Melody had no choice but to borrow them from her classmates.

"Do any of you have sanitary napkins?"

"Could you lend me a sanitary napkin? I'll bring a new one tomorrow for you."

Alas, all the students answered her with a resounding, "No."

Since no one was able to give her sanitary napkins, she could only sit dejectedly in her seat. All her pocket money was taken away by Wendy, and she could not buy another pack. The money Helen gave her was not much to begin with, and Wendy would always come up with various reasons to demand her pocket money.

Melody ran out of ideas. She was bound to soil her clothes if she did not find a solution soon.

"Are you going to have your period today?" Wendy sat in front of her and looked at her with a mocking expression. "Why are you so careless? Don't you know that you should wear a pad during your period?"

Wendy was a year older than Melody, but she was behind a grade because she never did well in her studies. As a result, they ended up in the same class. Wendy was a lively character that contrasted starkly with Melody's tendency to isolate herself in silence. As a result, Wendy was more popular than Melody among their classmates.

Those close to Wendy ostracized Melody, and by extension, it became an unspoken rule among the other classmates. With tears in her eyes, Melody said, "Could you buy a pack of sanitary napkins for me? I—"

"I'd love to if I could, but I don't have any money!" interrupted Wendy.

Someone then came up to her and said, "Here you go."

Melody looked up and saw a boy standing in the sun with a pack of sanitary napkins in his hand. "I know that girls usually tend to prefer a certain type of sanitary napkins, but since I'm not sure which ones you prefer, I just took one at random."

The sheepish Melody stood up slowly and looked at the boy in disbelief.

He smiled and said, "I saw you asking to borrow them earlier, so I got them for you since I was already going to get something from the store anyway."

Melody then reached out and took the pack of sanitary napkins. "Thank you."
