Melody was slightly taken aback, lifting her bright eyes to look at the young man in front of her.
The young man was handsome, with a poised stature, and there was a very warm feeling when he bathed in the sunlight.
Although he said he was protecting her because she was Iris Harris's sister, being protected by someone else still made her a bit moved.
Melody withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, sat in the passenger seat, hugged her legs, and rested her chin on her knees.
There was nothing more to say between them.
They arrived at the supermarket quickly.
Melody pushed the cart and headed towards the toiletries section.
Eddison followed behind her.
When they were near the sanitary pads aisle, Melody stopped, cleared her throat lightly, and said to Eddison, "Eddison, you wait here."
"Hmm?"
Melody tilted her chin slightly, a bit embarrassed, and said, "I need to buy those. It's a girl's thing, you don't need to come along, okay?"
