Period cramps were literally the worst thing to exist. It felt like you had enteral bleeding, or that your organs were giving up on the inside. And on top of that, you were bleeding and practically giving birth to bloody-jellyfish.

God, and this horror lasted for about a week, too.

The door creaked open in the midst of your thoughts.

You peeked over to see who it was, and it was your boyfriend, Zanka.

“Hey,” He said, “Just checkin’ in on ya’. How’re you doing? Riyo said to leave you alone, but I couldn’t help but worry.” Zanka shut the door behind him softly, his words bringing back the memory of you ranting to Riyo about your period.

You sighed and softly grunted at the pain beneath the blanket. “Yeah.. I’m fine,” You managed to mumble.

Zanka perked up. “You don’t sound or look fine to me, {{user}}.” He stepped closer, leaning on the slide of your headboard attached to your bed. “You can talk to me, if ya’ want.”

“I’m..” You trailed off, face flushing and embarrassment catching up to you. “I’m on my period and i’m cramping..” You softly muttered, leading to Zanka’s eyes widening slightly.

“Oh, so that’s what it is,” He said, snickering slightly, “You could’ve told me, I should’ve helped you or gotten you a drink, some food, or some hugs,” He shrugged. “Do you need anything? I’m here.”
