My Love, Enlighten me

Gloria Taylor remembered that she bought a contraceptive medicine.

She changed her clothes and squatted down in front of the drawer. When she found the medicine, she heard the door creaked open.

She was holding the medicine bottle when Kenny Clarke pushed the open and came in.

She reacted quickly and quietly hid the bottle behind her, “You’re home?”

She thought that Kenny Clarke was out, but it turned out that he was still at home.

“What are you looking for?” Kenny Clarke walked toward her slowly.

She hid the bottle behind her as she stood up, “My throat is little uncomfortable. I’m looking for some medicine for it.”

He looked at her straight in the eye. His stare was so tense and it looked like it could explode at any moment.

She gulped as she looked around and whispered, “It’s a contraceptive pills.”

“Louder.” He said hoarsely.

“I said it’s contraceptive! Can’t you hear me?” she shouted.
