"So we're going to eat Takoyaki, huh?" He gave an opinion on exactly what I was craving.

 

"Okay, but where to eat?" Without answering my question, Simon casually took a taxi and threw me there. I'm a born idiot. He only knew where to go, but now he doesn't know where to go.

 

The car was going around when I discovered it was going in the opposite direction. Finally, it came to a stop in front of the shop with the words "Ignis" on it. I have eaten at this address xxx restaurant before. It was time to go with my family.

 

The shop is not very large. Now it seems to be empty, so it doesn't look as crowded as before. Simon and I chose a table next to a family eating and drinking happily. While waiting, I looked around and didn't forget to look at that family.

 

Unexpectedly, it was my family. There are fathers, mothers, two sisters, and three sisters. The four of them are really having fun. The happiest person is three. Perhaps he had forgotten the existence of this youngest daughter.

 

"Happy birthday, daddy!" My brother spoke up, accompanied by a beautiful black gift box. I forgot. It turned out that today is my father's birthday. It's ungrateful. But how can I blame myself when I am no longer a member of that family?

 

When the food was served, Simon and I ate it as if we had starved for thousands of years. When I was about to pay the bill, my third sister saw me and was about to scream, but I shook my head. Anyway, it's better if you don't know. If you see me, you'll be angry again.

 

When I stood up, my father also stood up and turned to leave.

 

"Britt, be careful!"

 

Simon pulled my hand back, and at the same time, all three of my mom, dad, brother, and sister looked at me. especially my father. He looked at me and then at Simon, but what he looked at most was Simon's hand holding mine.

 

"Are you living a good life these days?" He asked, but every word that came out was a growl.

 

"That day you said you didn't know, so..."

 

He smiled, a smile that despised me. I am his daughter, and at this moment, he gave me that scornful smile. It's excruciating.

 

"Who's that, Britt?"

 

Simon's curious hour is up. Why be curious when people are sad like this?

 

"Acquaintance!" After I answered, I turned to leave. I didn't want to cry in front of them, or in front of Simon. I quickly ran to the street and caught a taxi. When I got to the car, my tears were now overflowing again. It was difficult for me to forget that they used to be a part of my life, but now it's the three, the part of the word "them" that instills a pain in me. That scornful smile will never leave me. At best, we are just "acquaintances."

 

Today is the closing day of the school year. Everyone's faces are bright and fresh like flowers. Why is it so fresh? I don't know, just summing up, I'm not going to receive an Oscar or a Golden Globe. I am still the same, still with a cold face without any emotion entering the school. To be honest, I'm most afraid of this day after studying for a whole year.

 

Coming here is only for the ears to be tired, not for the pleasure. Can't talk, can't eat, can only sit and listen to the "fathers" of the school and ward tell the old school history over and over.

 

This year, I didn't have any outstanding results, only being recognized as a good student in city level math. It seems that there is only one. like someone in a math class, holding a bunch of awards without being embarrassed. Life is unfair. But after thinking about it, my most remarkable achievement of the year was studying until the last two months of pregnancy. Dare anyone be brave enough to go to school like me? Giving billions is not sure enough.

 

After receiving the reward, I got out of the car and went home. Today, learn from experience. Remember to bring your phone and tell the driver what time it is.

 

"Yo Britt!" It's his voice again. Why do you keep screaming? There was a bit of sadness mixed in with a little bit of joy. I'm not sure why.

 

"Wait, what?" I turned back and asked.

 

"Um, I..." He stammered. What exactly? Hot boy faltering in front of a "country" girl? It's a strange thing.

 

"Star?" You say it! "Um, more than five minutes without saying anything. I've lost all my patience."

 

"I want to invite you to the party tonight!" Oh my god, maybe this case just stagnated all day. I neither accept nor refuse. just said to see why. Honestly, I don't want to go at all. I don't like parties, there are too many people, and my secrets are easily revealed.

 

Goodbye Simon. I got in the car and drove home. Looking back, I see him still standing there, looking closely. Maybe he still has something to say to me but doesn't know how to say it. As the car drove further away, Simon's figure faded and disappeared. There is something a little sad, a little regretful, a little disappointed.

 

My aunt also went to the party tonight. She asked me if I wanted to go, but I refused. What's the point of going there if you're just bringing more trouble into your body? I'm not troubled enough like this.

 

At six-fifteen, she left the house in her flowing gown. As for me, I was lying in my room online. I haven't been on F******k for a long time. Now I go to see how the people's tables are doing.

 

After fiddling with it for five minutes, it started to get boring; nothing hot at all. I went downstairs to get something to eat and suddenly felt a craving for something but didn't know what it was. It was only half past seven after eating and drinking. At this time, why don't you sleep so that I can go to sleep knowing what to do in a state of wakefulness like a flute?

 

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go online to learn to knit. I found that knitting is not as difficult as I thought. I went back and forth trying to break my hand. I was also frustrated by knitting half of something. To be honest, my hand hurt, so I stopped to take care of it.

 

Lying on the bed, looking at the calendar over and over again, I've been pregnant for more than three months. It looks like the belly is also getting bigger. Why do I see that the old clothes I wear are still not tight? It's strange.

 

When I think of the baby in my stomach, I think of the boy with the tattoo, who is now wandering somewhere I don't know. That day, I should have stayed instead of leaving, but unexpectedly, my calculation was wrong. I calculated it was not as good as heaven. My aunt returned at

 

ten forty-eight. She knew I was going to be hungry, so she bought me a box of chicken sticky rice that was too good. The smell of sticky rice mixed with the smell of chicken makes my mouth water. My aunt bought two boxes, so she got one box and I got one box. too standard.

 

After changing clothes, she sat down next to me, both picking and opening the box of sticky rice at the same time. Just by looking at it, you know it's delicious.

 

"Did you have a good time at the party, Auntie?"

 

"No child, those parties were so boring. They talked all the time, but they didn't eat anything, so now I'm hungry!"

 

"Poor auntie!" I laughed.

 

"There was a very handsome young man at that party, but he looked so sad."

 

"Well, it must have been a failure, auntie!"

 

"I guess so!" My aunt said while biting the chicken thigh, looking very funny. Looking at this, would anyone say my aunt is a successful woman?

 

After eating, I went to my room. As soon as I lay down on the bed, the phone rang again. It's Simon. What is he calling for?

 

"Hello, I heard!"

 

"Why didn't you come?" His voice sounded very sad, like he was disappointed.

 

"I'm tired." I concocted an excuse.

 

"Um, I've been waiting for you the whole party," Britt said. a whole party, but he didn't come. My wait was in vain. I've been waiting for you! Britt! " His voice sounded like he was drunk; it had a drawl to it.

 

"You go to sleep. What do we talk about tomorrow morning?" I tried to tell him to go to sleep, but the other line was very silent. A moment later, there was an answer.

 

"Um," came a squeaky voice. I have more things to think about. What is he waiting for me to do? What is there to wait for the whole party? My blood of curiosity has already reached my brain. Well, I'm waiting for that too.

 

"Angel-chan!" Why did my aunt wake me up so early in the morning? I still want to sleep. Today is summer vacation. I don't go to school anymore.

 

"What's the matter, Auntie?" The defense failed. I had to surrender. He scratches his head with his hands, and his mouth yawns.

 

"You're more than three months pregnant!"

 

"So what, Auntie?" My hand involuntarily went to my stomach.

 

"Then we should go see the doctor to see if the baby is okay, little one!" She smacked me lightly on the head.

 

"Certainly!" I seem to have understood the problem, dragging the body to the bathroom to prepare. Go check it out. What will it do in there? I thought, as my hand touched my not-so-big belly.

 

Fifteen minutes later, I was in the kitchen having breakfast with my aunt. Today, it was my aunt who went to the kitchen to make omelets. I can do that too.

 

My aunt took me to the hospital after eating and drinking. About half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Veera maternity hospital. I thought I would go to a private hospital. "

 

Britt! " My aunt suddenly called my name.

 

"Yes?"

 

I went there with my aunt. If anyone asks who she is, just say her mother-in-law. Let people not disagree, you know?"

 

"Yes." I nodded. Why come here and then? I'm afraid that people will disagree and discourage my aunt.

 

After completing the antenatal check-up book, my aunt and I went through the waiting area to check in. Oh, it's all pregnant women here. There are a few "sisters" in tired looks with big bellies that make me feel tired. Maybe in a few months, I will too. Suddenly, my aunt took my hand and pulled me into the room. It wasn't my turn to be examined yet. The nurse also did not say anything, but was also very welcoming.

 

"Krixi! " God I miss you so much! " My aunt exclaimed when she saw the doctor. The doctor also hugged my aunt. God, what kind of movie is this?

 

"How are you, Noire?" "I haven't seen that lady in a long time; where are you going?" The most terrible question of the year: what do you do when you go to the maternity hospital? What do you do in her room? Buy vegetables for sure. Ask bullshit.

 

"I took my daughter-in-law to a prenatal check-up!" My aunt pulled my hand back. Now it's time to role-play. I bowed gently to the doctor.

 

"Oh, your daughter-in-law is too pretty." This girl is supposed to be my daughter-in-law! " She held my hand and cupped my face. What do you do as a daughter-in-law? She builds a birthing machine so she can be sure. "Come on, go to bed, baby. Let's do a quick examination, just an ultrasound. It won't hurt!" I know it, the ultrasound doesn't hurt.

 

She applied a gel to my stomach. It's freezing cold. Is the freezer set? After she took the machine to check my waist circumference, she pointed at the screen and said:

 

"Here, baby is here! It's so cute! It's only been three months, but looking at it, you can tell it's very pretty! Well, where's your son if he's not with his wife? " The doctor asked my aunt

 

"My son has gone on a business trip. He knows that his wife is going to the doctor today. He really wants to go, but he can't come back in time." My aunt made up a true classic.

 

"Do you want to hear your baby's heartbeat?" Hearing the doctor's suggestion, I agreed without hesitation.

 

"Thump, thump..." A very small sound resounded. It was the sound of life. It's sacred that life is growing in me day by day. My tears are about to overflow. I should be smiling at this point, but tears flow like waterfalls everywhere. It's probably because his eyes are sweaty.

 

After the examination, the doctor printed out a picture of the baby for me. saying that my husband will come back tomorrow, let's see. Well, as long as I can hold three babies, I'll show it to someone. I saw her write a lot, but I couldn't read it. I only read the conclusion, "Good".

 

When I got out of the car, I kept looking at that little picture. Why is it so cute? Baby, grow up quickly. I promise what I will do. The mother will give birth to the baby in the healthiest way. Believe me, baby! I love you!

 

My aunt advised me to go out and buy some clothes so that when my belly grows, I will still have something to wear, but because my clothes are too tight now, the baby will be uncomfortable.

 

My aunt took me to a fashion shop specializing in maternity dresses. My aunt said to take three sets every month, counting from the fourth month. My aunt let me choose freely. I find everything beautiful and cute. How to choose After listening to the shop owner's introduction, I chose eighteen sets. Wear any country for everyone. And that reminds me of my old friend, Gray. How is she now?
