She finally felt a relief after having a long sweaty night. She doesn’t know why she’s feeling this way, could it because of her period is coming soon, and that should be any time today.

Her body was dripping wet, water dropped down her body slowly to the ground but she ignored it all and went to her bed as she fell heavily on it like a bag of rice.

Yes she kept her words, she hasn’t gone to work in the past few days, ignored Mrs Sandra calls and even her colleagues calls.
