"During such a cold day, you didn't bring with you an umbrella, neither the scarf?" As soon as they got in the car, Wilson can't help commenting on her dress after a glance. How did she pass winters in those years? In his mind, all those girls like her all prepared their winter-things well before winter, like gloves, hats, scarves, umbrella......
Now, how about her? only with a sweater and coat, so lightly dressed, how could she not feel cold?
"Go get some clothes with me tomorrow." Wilson did think she would feel cold with so little clothes on. Men are different, they are strong and not afraid of cold, but she, a girl, is different.
"It's okay, I already get used to it," she said. However, as she spoke, her voice was getting smaller, till it could only be heard by herself. All these were because she had seen Wilson's warning, she became diffident.
Actually, she thought she still had many clothes, enough for her at least, if she kept buying new clothes, the former one would be left aside, useless.
"Wilson, do you have time this weekend?” The car was stopped before the crossroad when it came to Sofia that soon it will be weekend, maybe she should take Wilson to visit her father and mother.
"I should be available this weekend."
"Then, could you leave me some time and accompany me to see my dad and mom. After all, we've married, I just wanna them to know that their daughters now live well and they don't need to worry about me anymore." When speaking of her parents, Sofia felt a heartache, every time when the new years came, it would be the most heartbreaking time for her.
All the other could have the opportunity to spend the happy days with their parent, yet she couldn't. she was always alone, even though she used to be with her uncle's family, she seemed to not be able to a family member with them. Sometimes her uncle would help her, however, in home everything was decided by her aunt, and there was a cousin like Wendy, God knows how she had passed those years.
"Yeah." Seeing the eagerness in her eyes, Wilson agreed without a second thought.
"Really? Wow, thank you, Wilson, thank you so much. You are so nice and sweet and considerate!" Sofia was so happy that she hugged Wilson with hesitation.
"Dear, calm down, I'm driving." It was then Sofia realized what she had done. She rushed back to her seat, blushed. So weird, it seemed that she always could control her feeling before Wilson.
The atmosphere soon became awkward between the two, Sofia turned her face quickly away, wondering how shameful it is for her to behave like that just now.
"Did you treat your ex-boyfriend the same way?" Don't know why, Wilson wanted to know whether she would do the same to that man, rushing to hug him in her excitement.
Sofia shook her head soon and explained," No, don't know why, I just don't want to be too intimate with him. For all those years, we only kissed once, or maybe that time couldn't be count in. For no reason, I pushed him away. Haha, now every time when I think of this, I would feel irony, as if everything were settled in the beginning."
Wilson didn't say anything, yet he was happy inwardly. No wonder that she didn't know how to change the breath and react every time he kissed her. It was not that she didn't react but didn't know how to react.
The car was running through the city, and it was quiet now, then, suddenly, a grunting sound came from Sofia. Wilson turned to look at her stomach, saying nothing but smiled. So embarrassed was Sofia, and then she remembered that she hadn't had dinner yet.
"Didn't eat this evening?" He asked with a bit of angry, Sofia smiled diffidently.
"What do you want for dinner?" Wilson sighed helplessly. How could she survive?
"Tomato-egg noddles, the one you did last time."
"Don't get bored of it?"
"No, I like it, but it's so surprising that you should cook yourself."
"Em. I live on my own when I was abroad, everything. If you want, I'll do it for you." Sofia nodded quickly, now when she looked at Wilson, she was like looking at delicious food.
Her behavior amused Wilson. With his mouth hooked up, he sped up. It was over 12 when they got back home.
No wonder people around her said that it was most attractive when men were in the kitchen. Drooling at him, handsome and talented, Sofia couldn't help wondering whether she was dreaming, or she couldn't rush into such a gorgeous person!
Should she thank Fitzgerald? If it had not been him, she wouldn't have met Wilson, not to mention marry him and be his wife.
"Enough?" Wilson stood before her without her notice, and then she came to herself and found it must be really embarrassing.
"You're drooling."
"Oh, sorry." Sofia hurried to wipe when she found him cheating on her. Wilson smiled looking at her clumsiness.
This was the first time when Sofia saw Wilson smile, it was like a sunbeam shining through the dark sky in cold winter, warm and obsessive.
"Will, you smile so sweet and attractive, why do you smile so little?"
Wilson realized that he Smiled just now. He didn't give a word but went to the dinner table with the bowl, Sofia followed him, waiting to see him smile again, yet failed.
She murmured, cool and cold guy!
"Go ahead, finish your dinner and get washed and go to sleep." Sofia began like a wolf, then she suddenly looked up and stared at Wilson who was also eating, wondering how could he eat so elegantly. Then she decided that she'd better not eat with him later, considering so obvious the contrast.
She could not help thinking herself a bandit who kidnapped a fragile gentleman.
"What?"
"No, nothing, Uhuh." Sofia giggled and thought whether she would be dead once Wilson knew that he was thought to be that kind of person. She'd better keep it herself.
"Are there so many things as an intern? Why did you work so late?" Wilson gave a word. He knew that Sofia work with her cousin in the same company and her cousin was her superior. He worried that this silly girl kept everything to her and get bullied.
"Oh, leave it alone, It's Wendy again, I don't knwo what happened to her that she should mixed one important file into the waste, and now all of them were thrown away into the shredder. Now I need to get those waste paper back and piece them together for the original file. That's why I played the jigsaw puzzle this whole night. Oh, I think I sit as long as there should be mushroom on me."
Wilson frowned, she was bullied as expected.
