Stuck

CHAPTER SIX

" Could you please go get me some of these? I have to get some food items" Jennie said, showing Lisa an item from her  grocery list. Lisa's eyes grew wide as she read what was Jennie was asking her to get. She looked  from her grocery list to Jennie and back again, shaking her head.

" Are you crazy? You'll get that and I'll get the food items" She said, reaching for the list. Jennie pulled the list back, out of Lisa's reach and shoved it into the front of her blouse.

" You choose: Get the grocery list from where it is now, or go get me the item I asked for? Well I'm pretty sure I know what you'll choose. the second one is easier" She said  playfully, a crooked smile on her face. Lisa frowned

"Forget it, I'm not going to get that from the feminine section of the supermarket, nor I am going to grab that grocery list from your... well, from there" Lisa huffed, pointing to where the corner of the list was peeking from the top of her blouse. Jennie laughed.

" Oh come on, Why the hell are you acting crazy? You'll just have to get sanitary pads beside Lisa you're a girl too! Why are you so scared of getting that thing?" Jennie teased she knew what's going on.

" Besides, no one will judge you Lis, it's a natural thing for us girls duh" She added with a chuckle. Lisa shook her head

" No way, Jennie I'm not getting that" she said crossing her arms across her chest.

" Do you want to get this grocery shopping done faster or not? The quicker we finish, the earlier you can go home back to your kingdom or wherever it is you live" Jennie said, her hands are now on her hips. Lisa considered Jennie's words for a moment.

Jennie was very stubborn, Lisa already knew that. And having her get that specific feminine care item from her grocery list was, no doubt, a form of mockery for her. Lisa never done grocery all her life, they have maids to do so and she have stocks of that in her bathroom.

But she did wanted to go home already. Her clothes still smelled like smoke and sweat from last night, and even though she'd already showered at Jennie's place, putting on soiled clothes made her feel disgusting. Finally after contemplating on whether to do it or not she sighed and decide to give up.

" I'm pretty sure this is some form of blackmailing" She grunted as she head towards the feminine section

" Consider it as my power of persuasion" Jennie called after her. Lisa shook her head as she turned the corner and walked down the aisle, looking for the particular brand she written on her list.

When she found it, she took 3 packs of the sanitary pad from the rack and was about to walk back to the opposite aisle where she left Jennie when she stopped short. A teenage girl was looking at her with a confused look before the girl could even say anything. Lisa walked away quickly and dumped the packs on the grocery cart when she found her.

" Never in my life, you ever gonna see me do grocery again, This sucks" She muttered. Jennie looked up from the rack she was standing in front of and grinned.

" Why? What happened? She asked. Lisa rolled her eyes.

" Well there was a girl looking at me like I was the weirdest thing she saw in her entire life" She answered. Jennie laughed and shook her head turning back to the rack of canned goods in front of her.

" That's alright Lis, It's not like you're gonna see her again anyway" Jennie replied, bending down to pick up a can of Spanish sardines. She placed the can in the cart and got 3 more before moving down to the next aisle. As Lisa watched her consider the different brands of corned beef in front her, Lisa crossed her arms in her chest.
