For two days, Boyce didn’t ask to sleep in the room. Jasmine also didn’t call him.
Sometimes, Jasmine knew that he didn’t feel good as he was bearing with it and she always wanted to laugh. She felt like he was a silly boy.
But he was cute.
He was silly and cute and she didn’t bear to scold him.
After the last day off, Boyce left again. There was no choice as he had to work. Jasmine understood it.
After getting out of the car, Boyce sent a message to Jasmine. ‘I have reached the destination.’
At the same time, Jasmine also finished her class. She replied, ‘Okay. Go back earlier and have a good rest.’
Boyce stood on the roadside while waiting for his colleague to fetch him at the station. He lowered his head to look at his phone. His long eyelashes were drooping, ‘I miss you.’
Jasmine was shocked after seeing the message. Then, she smiled, ‘You just left.’
Yeah, he just left and he realized that he missed her.
Boyce pressed his lips, ‘Don’t let me sleep on the sofa when I come back next time.’
Jasmine smiled while looking at her phone. She replied, ‘Depends on your performance.’ Boyce was speechless.
He remembered Jasmine’s words in his heart. He had to perform well to not sleep on the sofa.
At the same time, his colleague came to fetch him. He sent Jasmine a message, ‘My colleague is here to fetch me.’
‘You are staying there alone. Take good care of yourself.’ Jasmine replied.
‘Okay.’
Jasmine kept her phone. She had no class in the afternoon and she would attend an interview for an internship at a company. She had to prepare the document needed. She forgot about the time when she got busy.
She didn’t cook at night. She bought fish rice-noodle on the roadside and went home. She put it on the table and went to take a bottle of water from the fridge. She sat in front of the table and unpacked the disposable chopsticks. The phone in her pocket rang. She took out her phone and it was a message from Boyce.
‘Have you eaten dinner yet?’
After seeing the message, she smiled subconsciously. She replied, ‘I am eating.’
Then, she took a photo and sent it to him.
Boyce frowned, ‘Why are you eating this only?’
Then, he sent her another message, ‘Do you have no money?’
Jasmine took up her phone and had a look. She thought in her mind, ‘Does this man learn what should he do now? Does he know to care about me now?’
She smiled as she asked, ‘If I don’t have money, are you going to give me your payroll card?’
‘I will give you when I go back’ Boyce answered her without any hesitation.
Jasmine felt that he was a cute and honest man in her heart. She didn’t want to get angry towards him and let him sleep on the sofa anymore. He was a pity one.
He wasn’t a bad person. He was an unsentimental man and he didn’t know how to be romantic and to spice things up. However, he was very dependable as he gave her a lot of security.
‘I didn’t spend the money that you gave me. This fish rice-noodle is quite good. Let’s eat this together when you come back.’
‘I don’t know what you like. Just buy anything you like.’
‘Okay. I know.’
‘I have something to do. Sleep earlier later.’
Jasmine looked at her phone and she sighed. She knew that he was busy. It was at night and he still had something to do. She still complained about him last time. Suddenly, she felt guilty in her heart, ‘Okay. Call me when you are coming back next time. I will come to fetch you.’
‘Okay.’
Theresa Gordon’s second In-vitro fertilization result came out. She and Armand Bernie went to the hospital together.
‘Don’t be nervous.’ Armand held her hand. He could feel her cold palm and shivering body.
Theresa’s nervousness was evident, but she said, “I’m not nervous.”
Armand sighed. Her mentality was not in a good state now. If it failed, she would be disheartened.
The pair arrived at the doctor’s office. Armand knocked on the door and only pushed it open once they were granted permission to enter. When the doctor saw that it was them, he invited them to sit. Armand helped Theresa over to a chair.
Theresa was pressing her lips together tightly. She tried to calm down by telling herself not to be nervous again and again in her heart, but it was difficult to control her emotions.
There was a thin line between bliss and suffering.
“Doctor, how is it this time?” Armand asked.
The doctor did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked towards Theresa and said, “I’d like to speak to your husband in private for a while.”
Theresa did not move, “If there’s any problem, I want to be around to know too.”
The doctor looked over at Armand in hesitation.
Armand held Theresa’s hand, “He might want to talk about my problem. What about you wait outside first?”
“Regardless of whose problem it is, I can know about it too, can’t I?” Theresa asked in return.
Armand didn’t know how to respond, and he only spoke after a moment, “Sir, let’s talk about it now. If there are indeed any problems, the both of us will take care of it together.” The doctor finally nodded, “Okay then.”
He took out the results of the in vitro fertilization (IVF) this time around and handed it over to them.
Armand asked, “Did it fail again this time?”
If it had succeeded, the doctor would’ve told them already instead of showing them documents they couldn’t understand.
“Yes, it failed.”
Theresa was dejected. Her eyes lost all their colours instantly.
Armand hugged her by the shoulders, comforting her, “It’s alright. Even if we don’t have a child, you still have me.”
She looked up at the doctor, “It’s my problem, right?”
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked her to leave earlier.
