"Excuse me sir. How can I help you?" The saleslady asked me surprised that I was where pads (as Liza called them) where displayed.

"Em,... I actually want some of this for my friend but I'm confused."

"Your girlfriend, you mean?" The saleslady asked smiling while taking me down the rows.

"Yeah," I say not trying to explain who Liza was.

"What size? We have the products in long,extra long and really tiny ones. Which one does she want?"

"Huh? You know what? Just give me anything you recommend is more comfortable," I say to the saleslady.

'Hell yeah, just found out women's below go in sizes too. I wonder which one Liza is. Geez, John imagine what's going on in your head. But I bet she's extra long or .... Stop thinking of dirty stuffs you pervert'

I recommend extra long for your lady friend. Scented or non scented?"

That one is easy, "please scented."

"You know it's really rare seeing young men shopping for this type of things for there girlfriend, especially seeing the girl being comfortably with it."

"Emm, yeah," I say not knowing what else to say.

"Thanks for shopping here, please patronise us once more," the saleslady says handing me my purchased items.

"Thanks alot, Becky. Have a nice day," I say reading the name in the name tag.

Heading back home, my phone rings.

"Detective John!" I answer not checking the caller ID.

"John,it's Vaughn. Can you come to the office early today?"

"What's wrong?" I ask while stopping at a red light.

"I think we've got something or technically Giroud the IT guy thinks he's got something on your investigation."

"Okay,I'm on my way," I reply hanging up.

As soon as I reach home, I check the living and the dining room but no sign of her, then I head to her room, after knocking once and hear a mumbled ' come in ' reply.

Opening the door, I see Liza at the edge of the bed, crouched in a fetus position, her  hands on her stomach and her face in a twisted way, I knew she wasn't feeling well probably cramps.

"What's wrong? Have you gotten the flu again?" I ask checking her temperature with the back of my palm.

"No,I've bad painful cramps," she says trying to get in a sitting position.

"I'm sorry,let me get some pain relieving tablets for you," I say going downstairs.

I had to go learn about menstrual period on my way to the supermarket, so I knew somethings about cramps.

I don't plunge my head into things I'm ignorant about.

I brought some pain relieving tablets with warm water for her to drink.

"Thanks, John. Have you eaten?" She asked me.

"No, I'm about going to the office.   I just brought the stuffs from the supermarket and I'm about going."

"Really? I thought you were going to stay?"

"Well, if you want me to stay I can."

"No, of course not. You need to go to work and catch the bastard responsible for all of this," she says smiling.

"I promise. Rest up and don't wait up for me, I might come home late," I state kissing her forehead.
