Blanca listened to Matthew’s story of the past in silence, as if she was listening to someone else’s story.
She lifted her hand and touched Matthew’s back, which was very broad and warm, “I’m here. Matthew, we’ll never be apart again, okay?”
“Hmm? Then you have to hold on tight.”
“…”
Blanca grunted arrogantly, it was getting dark by the time she got back, the two of them hadn’t eaten all day, Mrs. Brown had already gone to bed, there was a warm meal in the kitchen, Blanca put the food in the microwave, and when she looked back she saw Matthew sitting quietly on the sofa waiting for her.
He had taken off his jacket when he was outside and was now wearing a simple clean white shirt, which was unbuttoned.
“Want to eat?”
The microwave dings, Blanca brings out the food, and Matthew nods, “Sure.”
She simply cooked another bowl of noodles for Matthew, Matthew seemed to be hungry, gulping down the noodles, Blanca looked at him like this, suddenly felt especially happy.
“What are you looking at me for? Do I have flowers on my face?”
“Matthew, how come you look so good? There must have been a lot of people chasing you when you were little?” Blanca propped her head up with her hand and suddenly said.
“Hmm? Want to know?” Matthew took a big bite of his noodles, but couldn’t help but stop first when he met the little girl’s curious gaze.
Blanca nodded and nodded, she used to have good-looking boys in school, when there would be many girls changing their ways to bring him breakfast, wanting to be at the same table with him, and even some taking the initiative to send love letters with bold confessions, that boy was like a light from heaven for Blanca, she knew she couldn’t reach it, but still couldn’t help looking.
Now that I think about it, Matthew should also belong to that kind of person, right?
It’s a beam of light.
Shining a light on others.
“Just tell me, are there a lot of people chasing you?” Blanca tilted her head and spoke with boredom.
Matthew nodded and ate the last bite of noodles, “Well, in middle school because too many people were chasing, so the teachers were overwhelmed and couldn’t attend classes properly, so they changed schools.”
“Pah!”
Blanca’s soup spoon fell into the bowl, so that she did not think it could be like this …
How spectacular must that be?
Blanca swallowed, “So … you don’t have one to look at?”
“No, they are all too childish and not at all reserved.” Matthew said, with disdain hanging in his eyes.
Blanca suddenly felt so grateful ah, how lucky she is to marry this man in front of her? Matthew, who was simply the pride of heaven, was with herself. However, in Blanca’s eyes, Matthew was Matthew, and could not be replaced by anyone.
“So, then what?”
“And then I scared him away.” Matthew said, “Because I threw a girl who was chasing me into the lake.”
“How did you …”
“She stalked me.” Matthew said dismissively, “What’s wrong with a nice little girl doing stalking a man.” Besides, the man was him.
Blanca puffed out her cheeks, that is clearly this man is too good, okay? But she did not retort, but the heart sweet. So her Mr. Grant was so good when he was a kid. ……
