"How do you know I won't die? My stomach hurts so much right now..."
Steve Burton really didn't know how to explain this question to Ruby Gregory, so he could only say in a blunt tone: "I said you won't die, so you won't die. Just stay in the bathroom honestly, and wait for me to call you later!"
Having said that, Steve hung up the phone.
Then, he entered the supermarket, bought a few packs of sanitary pads, hailed another taxi, and went to Ruby's school.
He had graduated from this junior high school, so he was very familiar with it. He easily arrived at the entrance of the restroom, took out his cell phone, and called Ruby: "Come out, I'm at the bathroom door."
Ruby paused for a moment, then spoke in a somewhat pitiful voice: "Steve, can you come in? My legs are numb and I can't stand up."
Steve held his phone, took a deep breath, didn't say anything in the end, and clicked to hang up the phone again. Then, for the first time in his life, he entered the girls' bathroom.
