Blanca bit her lip and looked at Matthew, trying to see the slightest trace of something else in this man, – but there was nothing.
How on earth did he say such things without blushing?!
“That …”
Blanca scratched the bangs in front of her forehead and suddenly ran out of ideas. Just two rooms, he can’t turn out another one for Matthew, right?
Curtis is also.
Curtis is reasonably Matthew’s personal assistant, oh, this personal assistant meaning can be deep, including not only to do a good job Matthew’s assigned work and their own work, but also to deal with Matthew’s personal life, such as now, the president wants to live with the president’s wife, he can not meet? Can’t.
“Assistant Curtis, there should be two beds in this room, we often share a room when we go out on spring trips, anyway, we are all adults, I don’t mind …”
“Room sharing?” Curtis keenly caught the words inside.
“Yes, it is to save some money, so four people or six people live together, men and women also do not matter.”
“…”
Isabel finished, Curtis’s face is not very good, “You do not even have the money to rent a house, and what to go to the spring trip!” A girl, how can you have no sense of security at all! What if there’s an unsuspecting man in the middle of the night, what if you lose out?
Looking at Curtis’ suddenly stern attitude, Isabel was a bit baffled, but still said nicely, “Because I want to go. …”
Blanca looked at the two people who suddenly became a bit saber-rattling, some puzzled.
Now the aunt watching the door has gone to watch the TV show, for her to collect the money, whatever these people how. Blanca’s eyes looked at Matthew, it was dragged away by Matthew, “Let them solve it themselves.”
“But …”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to go to Grandma’s old house to see it? We’re going now.”
“Oh.”
Blanca was tugged by Matthew’s arm, but still looked back fondly for a few moments until Isabel and Curtis disappeared from her sight.
The old, small town smelled of rain, even the grass on the ground was mixed with the aroma of earth.
“Is this where you grew up?”
Matthew looked at Blanca’s back, perhaps because she had arrived at a place she was familiar with, her whole person became very happy, like being locked in a cage for too long was suddenly released, soaring freely.
Blanca bounced a few steps before realizing that Matthew was left behind by himself.
“Yeah, I’ve lived here for as long as I can remember~” Blanca said in a good mood, pointing to some staggered houses in front of her, “When I was a kid, here and there – this big area is not This is a slum, the house is not brick and tile, but the kind of weeds mixed with dirt to do the walls, the outside painted with a layer of white putty. When it rains the rooms will leak.”
Blanca said, suddenly thought of something like, eyes became bright, “By the way, the best thing is that there are all around what people, so I also stole with the neighbors to learn a little English it. So when I was in elementary school my English grades were better than the others, others didn’t understand things but I did!”
Blanca proudly said, but Matthew just wanted to heartily hold her in his arms.
