“I know, I’m not afraid of pain …” Andrea Jones replied softly. Feeling Neal Williams’ care, her heart was soft and extra sweet, like she was back in her childhood. When I was a child, I was afraid of needles, very afraid. At that time when she was not feeling well and her mother wanted to give herself a shot, her father was holding her aside, and the two adults coaxed her gently, “Good girl, Andrea is not afraid, it does not hurt ah …”
During the two years in New York, her parents were gone and Sammy Jones was not with her, so she felt like an orphan and alone. When she was sad, she had no one to talk to, and when she was in pain, she had no one to care for her like that. Neal Williams is her heaven, her earth, her world. She knew that this man, she could rely on wholeheartedly. He has given her a full life.
Neal Williams took Andrea Jones’ other hand in his and watched as the syringe was inserted into the bloodstream, and she frowned lightly as he cautioned the doctor, “Be gentle.”
The blood draw is a young female doctor, heard him say so, more slowly and carefully the syringe out, and took a cotton swab dipped in alcohol to Andrea Jones hold down the needle hole. The side of the envious smile, while saying: “Your husband can really love you, every day to do premarital examination here so many, each one is happy to bubble look, really let us these leftover women more hate to marry.”
Neal Williams’ attention was still on her pinhole, his thumb holding it down for her, and he had little interest in the subject of women, so he didn’t get involved. andrea Jones and the doctor chuckled, “If you do meet the right one, then get married.”
“Then there has to be the right one too.” The female doctor gave both of their blood samples to another doctor while striking up a conversation with Andrea Jones, “There are so few good men these days, like your husband …”
The doctor gave Neal Williams an envious tsk and said, “That’s your lucky day.”
Neal Williams is standing here, from top to bottom, and every bit as dazzling. Even if we don’t say that his features and body shape are one of a kind, just look at how considerate and meticulous he just was to his wife, that is also charming to the heart.
Neal Williams, on the other side of the room, looked as if he didn’t know the two women were complimenting him, his face was calm, he just lifted his eyes slightly, looked at Andrea Jones’ face and asked gently, “Does it still hurt? I just bled a little.”
“Well, it doesn’t hurt anymore. No need to press so hard, my hand is numb.” Andrea Jones plucked his thumb and he let go, “You do it yourself, I’m not gentle.”
Take the test results, the two went to get a marriage certificate. But into the Civil Affairs Bureau queue to them, the two confused eggs remembered that they have not taken pictures! Hurry to run to the studio across the street to take pictures.
“Very well, that’s it. Both of them are smiling so happily, the shot must come out well.” The photographer said, while they ‘clicked’ the picture. Two people head to head, Neal Williams one hand on her shoulder, she and he nibbled, “You are experienced, why do not remind me to take pictures?”
Neal Williams’ face darkened, “What do you mean, I have experience?”
Can you call that experience before?
“It’s not the first time you’ve been here …”
Neal Williams reached out and gave her a light twist on the lips, she ‘bared’ and hurriedly ducked before he grabbed her face back, “Idiot, the picture with Penny Brown is a composite.”
Andrea Jones just laughed, “It’s like you care more about your past than I do.”
“… It’s good to know, so don’t mention it again.”
After taking the pictures out of the photo studio, Andrea Jones and Neal Williams said, “Go ahead and get in line, I’ll be right over.”
“Do what?”
“I’ll buy a little something.” Andrea Jones nudged him, and remembering the need to save time in line, he went over first himself, not forgetting to explain to her, “Be careful crossing the street, and come back when the light is red, okay?”
“Got it!” She had turned into the kiosk and returned to him without looking back.
A moment later, Andrea Jones returned. The bag was swollen and bulging, and Neal Williams looked at her in disbelief, only to see her walk directly toward the person doing the job, pull open the bag, and smilingly deliver two large bags of candy and two packs of her best cigarettes to the person, “Big sister, here’s our wedding candy, let’s all have fun.”
In the Civil Affairs Bureau of business, the wedding candy are numb, not much interest. However, the two packs of cigarettes are different, two packs of cigarettes also cost more than two hundred.
“Thank you, then I’ll be polite.” The other side was not polite, and accepted it with a smile. As if they had not just embarrassed them, they moved their information to the top, and their tone was as cordial as can be, “You have just lined up twice, right? Come, come, come, you do not queue, first for you to cover.”
“Okay, thank you then!” Andrea Jones immediately waved at Neal Williams, who came out of the line and strutted to the front. Handing the photo over, they were really not given a hard time this time and decisively stamped.
Andrea Jones smiled at Neal Williams with a smug look in her eyes, and Neal Williams pinched the tip of her nose.
“OK, it’s done, good luck to you guys haha.” Two brand new red books were handed over, one for each of the two people.
“Thanks.” Andrea Jones said thank you, and the two walked out of the Civil Affairs office hand in hand.
Neal Williams folds over and embraces Andrea Jones as soon as he gets in the car, and Andrea Jones smiles, wrapping his arms around him as he says, “Say hello to your husband.”
Andrea Jones buried her face in the crook of his neck and didn’t make a sound, but Neal Williams couldn’t wait to hear the sound and urged her, “Come on.”
“Old … male …” such a sacred name, let her some embarrassment.
That thin, soft sound made Neal Williams’ heart tremble. Yet, it was far from enough. Loosening his arms a bit, he cupped her face, his eyes gazing deeply at her, coaxing, “Call again …”
“Husband …” This time, it’s much more natural.
“Louder.”
“Husband! Honey! Is that enough?”
Neal Williams smiled deeply, cupped her face, kissed deeply, and nibbled greedily on her lips, “Of course it’s not enough, you have to scream for the rest of your life, scream until we all lose our teeth and still scream.”
“… got it.” Andrea Jones dutifully responded, her heart flooding with emotion.
“How did you come up with the idea of bribing her?”
“How can you call it a bribe when it’s two packs of cigarettes? I’m smart, right?” Andrea Jones can’t help but be a little smug, “I quietly read the strategy on the same city forum yesterday, but ended up leaving in a hurry this morning and forgot about it.”
Neal Williams was a little annoyed that he had to bring his cigarettes with him everywhere he went. He should have thought of it, if he had brought something, when he and Penny Brown get the divorce papers today, there is no need to let Andrea Jones listen to those cold words.
On the way back, you can always hear the sound of laughter coming out of the car. The sun visor inside the car opened, the wind through the car, the two hearts are soothed to the extreme.
Along the way, he kept calling people.
“Sis, I just sent you a picture over, did you see it?” Andrea Jones finds Neal Williams to be a total kid when she gets excited.
“Hold on, you haven’t clicked on it yet.” Bonnie Williams was quiet on the other end for a while, and came back with a series of “tsk tsk tsk’s”, “Pretty fast, so anxious, huh?”
“Can you not be in a hurry? What about you guys? When do you plan to get your license? Andrea and I still want to wait for you to have a wedding together.” Neal Williams looked over at Andrea Jones as he spoke, and Andrea Jones seemed to think that was a good offer on his part, nodding her head the whole time, chickening out.
“Wait, I’ll take your sister to the Civil Affairs Bureau later and we’ll get married together!” There, it wasn’t Bonnie Williams who spoke again, it was Ingram Gray who apparently snatched the phone away.
Bonnie Williams called over there, “Who’s going to marry you?”
Neal Williams laughs and hangs up the phone as Andrea Jones hears that last sound from Bonnie Williams and asks Neal Williams, “Are they still having a tantrum?”
“What is the temper? You know my sister’s temper, she thinks Ingram tormented her for so many years before, now she has to torment back. But, watch, if Ingram really does not propose to her, she will have to be anxious. In front of Ingram, she is as good as a deer.”
“Even if she’s tamed, then she’s happy.”
Neal Williams nodded in agreement and dialed again, and Andrea Jones reminded him to watch the car so nothing would happen again, but he just nodded and said he knew, and the call came through .
“Did you see the pictures I just sent over?”
On the other side of the phone was Garret Miller, who grimaced, “Don’t you come and stimulate me now, I’m afraid I’ll get psychologically twisted and say something vicious.”
Neal Williams laughed even more, “You sound like you’re having a rough time chasing your wife, huh?”
Yes, Garret Miller has gone to Germany to explore the road first. Simply can’t wait, can’t wait to fly to Ashley Williams with wings.
“Now that you know, stop showing off for me! Showing love dies fast, haven’t you heard of it?” Garret Miller yelled, Neal Williams is clearly rubbing salt into his wounds. Now that he’s 27, he’s seeing two brothers around him with beautiful women in their arms, and he’s celibate, even if he’s alone.
The point is, a certain girl is not yet open, oh yes, now seems to be open, but, open the object is not their own ah! Shit! It’s only been a few days, and I’m really going to be chased by a Chinese student! What an outrage!
“Crow’s mouth! Do you still want to be my brother-in-law?”
“Think so, you have to help me find a way to get your sister done, right? I asked her to move in with me today, and you know what excuse she used to turn me down?”
“What?”
“She actually said … no! Self! At ease! Do you know why not comfortable? She said I’m an elder! Elders! I said, “Neal Williams, how am I your elder?!”
Neal Williams couldn’t help but laugh and imagine Garret Miller freaking out over there. that Ashley Williams girl, what a way to get her anxious.
“You really misunderstood her meaning, she was respecting you then.” He flirted very unsympathetically.
“Respect? Respect my ass!” Garret Miller is about to explode.
“Who made you 9 years older than her? Three years old is a generation gap, how many generations do you count between yourself and her? She treats you as an elder and still condescends to you?”
“I find it completely impossible to communicate with you.” Garret Miller was looking for comfort, but instead of comfort, Neal Williams was irritated to the core. “I can’t believe I’ve lived 27 years and can’t handle a girl like that!”
“Good luck then, if you can’t get it right you can turn to us, the off-court audience.” Neal Williams was ‘friendly’ in giving advice.
Garret Miller was not happy to talk to him, before hanging up the phone, Neal Williams added: “When I promised you to go to Germany, you said when we get married to send a big gift to Andrea, remember? Don’t go back on your word! No one will be there, but the gift will be there.”
Garret Miller grunted conspiratorially, “Don’t worry, forgetting nothing will not forget your big gift.”
