“So what are you trying to say?” Mark asked coldly.
“I’m saying what happened last night can only happen once. It can never, and will never happen again,” Cecilia answered definitively.

Although his demeanor was still gentle, Cecilia could feel that his tone wasn’t the same as before.
At the same time, she wouldn’t compromise her stance no matter how mad Mark got.
While they were having breakfast, she looked up at him and said, “We’ll stop at the pharmacy on the way later.”
Mark glanced at her before replying, “You’re on your safe period.”
“still, I’m worried.”
After saying that, Cecilia grabbed her glass of milk and swiveled it gently.
“Our relationship as it stands is already very complicated.
We have two kids, and our fates, whether we like it or not, are intertwined. I don’t want to complicate that even more by bringing in another life.”
She had already given birth to two children and raised them herself.
There was no need to add another one to that.

Despite that, he knew that she didn’t need to take morning after pills.
Still, Cecilia insisted. She was afraid of being pregnant again.
In the end, as Mark sent her to the film set, he stopped by the roadside with a nearby pharmacy in sight. Cecilia wanted to go out and buy the pills herself, but Mark grabbed her hand before she could leave, thinking otherwise.
As a traditional man, he believed that it would be better if a man were to purchase such things.
So, he walked into the pharmacy in her stead.
He took a box of morning after pills from the pharmacy clerk. As he paid the bill, his eyes fell on the small square boxes on the shelf beside the counter and bought two boxes of large-sized condoms.
