Suddenly, she opened her eyes and stared at the man above her, asking softly, "Jared, are you sure I won't get pregnant?"
Jared lowered his gaze and met her eyes, which showed no sign of sleepiness. It was clear that he somewhat understood why she was asking.
She was worried about getting pregnant.
"No, you won't," Jared answered very confidently.
"Why not?"
Jared showed her his arm, revealing a new needle mark, "I get an injection before we sleep together."
It's a contraceptive injection, more effective than pills, with almost no chance of pregnancy, that's why he's assured when they are intimate.
Melody stared at the still-red needle mark on his arm, "Then wasn't today's injection wasted since I'm not feeling well?"
"Doesn't matter."
"I could just take contraceptive pills," Melody said earnestly, knowing that injections are harder on the body than pills.
"Taking too many pills is bad for you, no need to take them."
