Lemira's bold actions left everyone in the office stunned.
Asher's face turned a bit awkward when he saw the tampons. "Why are you pulling these out? Aren't you embarrassed?"
"What's embarrassing about tampons? You guys don't seem to feel embarrassed buying condoms!"
Asher's face flushed with frustration. "Stop being unreasonable. Let's talk about this at home. Can't you see I'm in a meeting?"
There were a few executives in the office.
One of them said, "Boss, I'm not superstitious or anything, but we're discussing a big project here, and tampons are just bad luck."
"Yeah, back where I come from, when a woman is on her period, it's considered unlucky. She can't go to church or participate in certain rituals. It could affect the man's fortune."
"Boss, your sister is being way too reckless. How can she just flaunt tampons like that?"
Their comments only fueled Asher's anger.
He pointed at Lemira, "Get out of here and take all those things with you!"
Lemira picked up the tampons from the table. "Haven't your moms, wives, or any women in your family ever used these? Haven't you seen them before?"
"But no one flaunts them like this!"
"Exactly, tampons are supposed to be used discreetly. It's bad luck if others see them."
Lemira unwrapped a tampon and slapped it right onto the mouth of one of the executives. "Well, congratulations, your life's over now."
The executive cursed in fury, "You witch, you..."
The other two executives quickly intervened. "Watch your words, she's Ms. Langston."
Lemira looked at the two peacemakers. "Almost forgot about you two."
She slapped a tampon onto each of them, watching their faces turn pale as if it was something filthy.
Lemira coldly remarked, "Don't forget, the place where periods come from is the same place you came from. If periods are filthy, then so are you."
The three executives were too shocked to retort.
Asher rubbed his temples in frustration. "Everyone, just leave."
