“Mom, you don’t have to explain. I understand.” Although Roe is young, he has known many things from an early age, such as his mother did not take him with her, but left him with grandma.
He knew she had some reasons, so he wasn’t angry.
Vivian’s slender hands wrapped around Roe’s tiny white hands, she was sad and helpless. “I’m sorry, Roe,” she said. “mom will tell you when you’re older.”
The child is sensitive, he can feel the sadness of his mother, cannot help saying, “As long as you are by my side, I will be happy, so don’t be sad.”
“Well, I am not sad, having the most sensible baby, how can I be sad. Vivian felt very grateful to god for giving her such a sensible baby.
Others say daughter is a sweet little jacket, her Roe is a warm little vest, always can let her heart is full of strength.
Hearing Vivian’s words, Roe felt a little embarrassed. He was already smiling, showing two rows of neat little teeth. He looked innocent and cute.
Vivian was also infected by his smile, and then she smiled happily.
“Roe, let’s go to see the hippo.”
“Well.” Roe didn’t want to go back so early.
Vivian put the groceries back in her bag and took Roe to see his favorite hippo. They happened to go to the hippo’s garden, where the keeper is preparing to feed the hippo with watermelon.
Roe excitedly craned his neck to see. Vivian was about to remove her messy hair, the mobile phone in her pocket began to shake.
Vivian took a look at her cell phone and saw that the caller id on it was Angie, and hesitated for a few seconds to connect.
Angie on the other end of the line had already begun, “Vivi, where are you? I’m bored.”
Vivian holds Roe’s hand to prevent others from crowding him. She answers calmly, “Angie, aren’t you accompanying William? Why do you have time all of a sudden?”
Vivian didn’t mention it, but Angie’s resentment also came up. “Vivi, I felt even worse when you asking about it. He left soon without any reason.”
Then she said, “Vivi, I am so poor, you come to accompany me.”
Just Roe shouted surprisingly by her side, “Mom, look at a hippo, it can eat a watermelon in one bite.”
Angie only heard Roe’s voice, not what he said, wondering, “Vivi, why do you have a child there?”
Vivian was a little guilty. Seeing that Angie didn’t hear him clearly, she calmly followed Angie’s words. “Oh, that’s a relative’s child. I help his mother to babysit him and I can’t leave. Sorry.”
“All right, then you must come tomorrow.” Judging by Angie’s attitude toward her daughter, she doesn’t really like children, so she immediately dismissed the idea of Vivi bringing the little boy.
Vivian agreed and she hanged up.
Roe said with an expression of doing the wrong thing. “mom, I said the wrong thing.”
“No, you are my good boy.” Vivian gently reassured.
Roe was distracted and then he looked at the hippo again, once again surprised by the terrible force of the hippo’s bite.
Only when the sun went down did the two leave. Of course, Roe was reluctant to leave, and he felt that today’s time passed too fast.
Seeing Roe’s upset, Vivian smiled, squatted down in front of him and said gently, “Come on, Roe. Mom will carry you back.”
“No, mom is tired, too.” Roe looked longingly at Vivian’s back. Although he really wanted to ask his mother to carry him, he also knew that she was tired.
So that he has to restrain and restrain.
“Well, I am not tired, if Roe really want to help mother, help mother with taking the kettle.” Vivian put her empty water bottle in his hand.
Roe took a look at the kettle and hesitated for a few seconds, biting her lips. Still unable to resist the longing in his heart, she rushed to Vivian’s back with two short legs and held the kettle in his hand.
Crisply said, “Mom, if you are tired, you must put me down.”
Vivian chuckled and said quietly, “Well, I know, and our Roe is not heavy at all. We need to eat more and grow up soon.”
“Well, mom I will.” Roe swore in his heart that he would grow up soon and protect his mother.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, their shadow was very long, very long, looked just like a tender picture at far, let people felt soft and comfortable.
When Vivian carried Roe back, he was already asleep on her back. He had been to the zoo for a long time, so he must have been tired.
By the time she had settled Roe down, it was seven o ‘clock in the evening.
The examination doctor came to inform her that Roe would be discharged tomorrow after drinking water, which made Vivian very happy. It proved that Roe’s body was not serious and had no impact on the operation.
She was just about to go out and buy some dinner for Roe when she got an unexpected call.
“Vivian, where are you?”
“William, what did you want with me?” Vivian paused for a moment and headed for the deserted safe passage.
“What are you afraid of?”
The cold voice of William came to Vivian’s ears and evoked her deepest fear.
Did he found out? No, that’s impossible.
Vivian felt her heart beating as fast as it could, as if it would jump out of her chest the next second. She kept her face calm and said, “William, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“That’s for you.” William’s voice on the other end of the line was still calm and cold, as unfathomable as his own.
“I have nothing to fear.” Vivian, even though she was nervous, wouldn’t show a thing or two about William, and he probably still didn’t know. He was just spying on her.
Otherwise, with his aggressive personality, this moment he must be present not the phone.
“I hope so. Better not let me find out, or you will know the consequences of deceiving me.” After saying the last word, the man on the other end of the phone also hung up.
Vivian was just like having gone through a terrible disaster. She was so nervous and slumped on the ground. She was scared to death. Almost she would confess everything in Willian’s powerful pressure.
William must have spotted something, and either way, she had to move fast.
