028 A Bad Llar

Scarlett's POV

I laugh, rolling my eyes: "There really isn't. The technique is pretty mature now. You just feel some

mild discomfort for about a week, and a bit tired for a while, but that's it. So long as you don't

donate multiple times within 6 months, it's totally safe."

Lilith stares at me, and so does Aurora. | drink my lemonade, playing calm. I'm a really bad liar. But

1 don't want to describe the real pain to them. What's the point, it's over now.

6 months is the safe period for a reason. For up to several months after the donation you can feel

fatigue, weakness and sometimes obvious pain and discomfort, which varies by people.

"Does it leave a scar?” Lilith leans in and tries to look down my shirt.

"No!" I shrill with laughter, grabbing my collar as | dodge her, "This is a bar, pervert!"

"Exactly." Lilith puts on an evil smirk, "isn't striping what people do in a bar?"

"Aurora! You just sit there and watch her bully me?!"

Aurora sips her drink and watches us wrestle for a while before she finally has her fun, "Lilith, there won't be a

scar. Told you, | checked. Anything you can think of now, | already looked into three days ago."

Lilith drops her attempt, looking like a puppy draping her ears: "I feel left out..."

"That would teach you to cut us out of your life!" Aurora rolls her eyes, not moved by Lilith's puppy dog eyes.

"I don't know if | would be brave enough to do something like this," Lilith lies back into her seat, a scared look on

her face, "I mean, yes, | know, it's saving a life, but still...sounds scary."

For someone who makes her nfighting

On the street, Lilith is really scared of needles. Aurora and | both think it's a legit phobia, but Lilith would never

admit to it.

"It IS a bit scary, you wouldn't be able to do it," | smirk at Lilith, sipping my lemonade, "I guess | did it

because...every t| donate, Sebastian would take a day off and spend the whole day with me. He would eat

withand drivehhimself-" Lilith and Aurora both stare atwith a horrified look.

""What?" I blink.

Lilith opens her mouth only to say nothing, like a fish on land. Aurora puts down her drink, and leans forward

with a serious look: "What do you mean by...every time?"

| choke on my drink. It gets in my nose and tears spout out.

"I mean..." After a string of heavy coughs, | finally cback to life with the help of several tissues. Lilith and

Aurora glare atlike I'm scriminal, "I told you, unprecedented treatment. The doctor had only a theory in

his mind when we started, so..." "Exactly how many times did you donate?!" Aurora demands. She is like a mom

again.

"Five..." | flinch, feeling guilty though I had no reason to be, "every twas within safe range, though."

Damon laughs. He is seven years older than Lilith, so we only got to know him through the few but
