To Live Again, For the First Time!

In front of Jenna were at least a dozen bottles of pills with various labels on them, none of them concise enough for Jenna to know of their purpose at first glance.

Such a scene instantly made Jenna think about the worst possibilities.

Truth be told, it really looked like Theodore had some chronic illness just from the number of pills he "had to take".

To someone who didn't know the purposes of such pills, they may really think that Theodore had to take all these pills every day.

Well, in fact, most of these pills were just precautionary, while the others were rather useful in specific circumstances.

Of course, there were also some vitamines, also made by Emilin's formulas.

Nathen and Theodore didn't have to worry about side effects when eating these, so they really had no qualms, thus the number of pills that would make one wonder whether you were going to die in the next breath.

Theo wasn't the only one with these pills in their family.

Nathen was in fact carrying even more than him as he had stronger vitamins and other precautionary pills that he didn't need.

These were mainly due to Nathen's stronger physique, which had to be maintained.

Of course, since these pills didn't harm the body and they took immediate effect before being flushed out of their system, they were completely unlike drugs.

Well, except for the vitamins, which were just like normal vitamins, except enhanced so that they wouldn't affect the body even if too many were taken.

Of course, there was still an "ideal number", any more and the rest would also be flushed out of the body as it would be detected to be superfluous.

"Wh-which one?" Jenna's voice was much softer than usual and it had a slight tremble, which also existed in her hands.

If Theodore needed to take a pill right now, then it meant that something might go wrong if he took the wrong one right?

I can't mess this up, or I might have a dead Theodore by my side in the very next second.

By then... I'm really not going to be able to pee.

But of course, Jenna's focus was still on her friend's life- of wait- nope, it was on peeing her pants. She was worried if things really went south, she may be peeing on her friend's warm corpse.

"The one that's half yellow and half white, with a label that has a "D" on it," Theodore said after thinking about it.

It scared Jenna even more that Theodore knew these pills like the back of his hand, or at least that was the impression he was giving...

Well, that was a misunderstanding.

Theodore recalled this one well not because he used it often, but rather because Emilin emphasized it well.

They had both read those novels about people getting drugged, getting pregnant, etc, etc. 

WELL, no one was really sane enough to put their hopes on some unrealistically beautiful and perfectly lovable female lead that was perfect for them to land on their beds if they were drugged, so precautions were taken.

Emilin had emphasized that this pill was half yellow because of the color of the beer that was often shown to be in large jugs so that Theodore would remember it even if he were drunk, and the label was obviously D for similar reasons.

It was something like Don't Drink so Damn Much Next Time! or Don't Forget This One When You're Drunk! Or, Don't Get the Next Person You See Pregnant! Or, Don't be a Drunk D*ck!

Well, the idea was there.

Theodore could no longer recall what the original meaning was, so he could get creative about it.

But it did the trick, even when he was drunk, he could still recall the pee-colored pill that he wouldn't take on any other occasion.

There were the rummaging sounds of his bag along with the clacking of the plastic and glass containers, which really made Jenna uncomfortable.

It was uncomfortable how she had to dig through a bag to find these pills and even more uncomfortable that Theodore seemed to have to carry all these different pills with him at all times.

It really made it feel like he could die at any second.

Another misunderstanding.

Theodore just carried them all around with him due to the fact that he never knew which ones would end up actually becoming useful at any moment, and really, he couldn't bother organizing them.

He had the acute feeling that if he were to ever only bring one bottle around, he would never put it back, and thus he would probably start losing medicine left and right.

Wasn't it much simpler for him to bring it all with him?

He wouldn't ever have to have so many worries again.

Of course, if he lost them, he would lose them all, so when he went to Emilin, he could just ask for another batch while using the reserve.

It didn't matter much to Emilin either, something she had long emphasized, seeing as these were only some of the elementary medicines in her library.

It didn't matter if they got out as she already had the patents done, even though they weren't currently being sold to the outside market.

Though of course, Theodore wouldn't be that careless with the stuff given to him by his sister.

"Did you get the pee-colored one?" Theodore asked, just to make sure, after all, even if he recalled it really well if the person getting it messes it up, then he would also be f*cked.

Okay, that was somewhat of an exaggeration since none of these pills would have an adverse effect unless you were supremely skinny eating the pill that would increase your metabolism and proceed to still not eat.

But even then, there wouldn't be immediate results unless you continued to starve yourself, which was pretty pointless if you had such a pill, to begin with.

Even then, you probably died due to starvation and not because of the pill you were taking.

Jenna's eye twitched at the mention of a 'pee colored pill', which only made her desire of smashing this guy and then going to the bathroom and go back to nature, increase.

But if he was going to die without the pill, how could she leave him standing? I mean, sitting?

Well, Jenna took out one of the pee-colored pills and used her hand to move Theodore's head so that she could stuff the pill in his mouth.

She felt somewhat tingly when her fingers touched Theodore's warm lips, and even more so when his tongue brushed past her fingertip when taking in the pill.

But the thoughts of going to the bathroom still overthrew everything.

And her urges to go masked any and all feelings going on in her lower abdomen.

I mean, she was already clenching really hard, so how was she supposed to feel anything at all?

Theodore didn't notice as he was trying his best to swallow this pill, something he usually didn't have troubles with, but damn!

His throat was so damn dry.

The pill barely went down with his great efforts and his throat hurt even more than it did before.

But the results were instantaneous.

Theo became more clear-headed, his legs were returning to normal and so was the rest of his body as the alcohol was being processed and dispelled from his body at a rapid speed.

The first thing he did once he could feel the movements of his arm was to get the closest drink to him, of course, he wasn't going to get the alcoholic drink next to him, so without even thinking, he took the fruit wine with a "low percentage of alcohol."

But, damn.

Damn did he not think things through.

He had only taken a small sip from the straw and his throat was already burning like crazy all over again!

"What were you drinking!"

Theodore roared as his whole face scowled.

Jenna didn't respond as his actions were completely unexpected to her.

She didn't know what to say at this moment, and she was lucky she didn't pee herself a little there.

"I'll be damned if that's a normal fruit wine."

Normally, if he hadn't already drunk that much, his reaction wouldn't have been so exaggerated, and especially not when he was expecting something of such high concentration.

It was like drinking white wine thinking it was water, your reaction was bound to be different from drinking white wine knowing it was white wine.

It was the difference between knowing what to expect and not knowing.

But after that scene, Theodore didn't say anything more either.

He still knew clearly why he had taken the pill in the first place, and since it was still in his system, the fruit wine would also be affected, he didn't have to worry about getting drunk again with just a sip.

Suddenly, to Jenna's surprise, Theodore stood up and Jenna even saw how Theodore's face had returned to its original complexion.

Completely unlike his flushed face from just moments ago.

In fact, if it weren't for such an apparent change, Jenna may have even assumed that Theodore had been acting before.

He looked completely normal.

But she had no such free time to think about it.

As soon as Theodore moved out of the way, she ran like a cheetah, making a B line to the bathroom.

While Jenna did that, Theodore took this time to order water and another large bowl of noodles.

Since he took the pill, his body was going to be working a little bit of overtime, so he at least needed to feed it well.

And his throat was still dry as f*ck.
