Clarence quickly put down the knife and fork and held Shirley's shoulder, persuading, "Didn't you agree? Don’t be angry. Let's have a peaceful conversation.” Mya lowered her face and went on eating as if nothing had happened.
Shirley stared at her daughter, kind of pissed off. It took a long while for her to calm down.
After dinner, Mya got up and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm 20 years old, | won't live at hforever. | can move out from Finnley's and live at school, or | can get an apartment.” Then she turned and left.
"What's that attitude?" Shirley stood up anxiously. "We are doing it for your good! Do you know that Finnley has a fiancée?" "What does it matter toif he has a fiancée?" Mya stopped at the door and turned around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShirley's eyes widened. "So, it's true?" "What is?" Mya was also a little mad, "I've grown up! Can | have sprivacy? Don't | even have the right to make friends?" With that, she went into the living room and quickly went upstairs.
Shirley was so angry that her chest hurt, "Honey, look at her, she doesn't admit it! She doesn’t admit it when she is even living with him.” "All right, all right." Clarence put his arm around her shoulder. "Calm down. | should have talked to her alone. Maybe she would have toldsomething.” Upstairs, Mya found that her bedroom had been tidied up, and the bed was neatly made.
The white carpet was very cozy. Paula had sterilized it.
The glass cabwas filled with her favorite snacks, all neatly placed there. She was touched by this detail.
"Ms. Saunders." Mya turned around and saw Paula standing at the door, who seemed hesitant to speak, "Ms. Saunders, this is specially prepared by your mother, she really loves you." "Please tell my mother." Her tone calmed down quite a bit, "I'll say it for the last time, Finnley and | are just friends, if she doesn't believe me, there's nothing | can do about it." "Okay, have a good night, | will convey your words." After Paula left, Mya locked the bedroom door from the inside, feeling empty.
She took off her shoes and sat on the sofa in front of the window, holding her knees, staring at the night sky.
In an apartment in Skyhigh Apartment Complex.
Finnley, who chfrom work, cooked snoodles for himself and ate alone in the dining room.
It was very quiet all around. He had been used to Mya's chattering voice. Now without it, he lost much of his appetite, feeling lonely.
Finishing the noodles, Finnley got up and went into the master bedroom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMya was no longer to be found there.
In the bright light, he cto the bed and stood still. He reached out and unplugged the charger, thinking, “Does this girl have any common sense of safety?” If a child put the other end of the cable into his mouth, he could be killed.
He then found a long hair on the white pillow. He looked at it. After a while, he picked it up and threw it in the trash can.
His phone rang. It was Mya. His dull eyes lit up, and he quickly answered, "Mya." His mood was cheered up as well.
"| forgot to unplug the charger. Please do it for me." Mya's voice was gentle. It seemed she was in a bad mood.
"Are you okay?" Finnley was alert, "Where are you?" "I'm at home." Mya sighed, "My mother misunderstood our relationship. From today on, we have to keep our distance. She is very unhappy. She thought | was dating you but didn't tell her." Keep distance? What did that mean? Sadness flashed across Finnley's eyes. "l see." "My mother slandered you, saying that you have a fiancée.” Mya complained, "If we stay close, according to my mother's personality, she would slander you much more than that." Fiancée? Something flashed in Finnley's eyes. Did Mya's mother investigate him? Mya then said, "Anyway, thank you for takingin. Please helppack my things, I'll go get them when | have time!" "Alright." Just as Finnley wanted to say something, Mya hung up.
Hearing the beeping sound, Finnley could only put down the phone and then walked towards the wine cabinet...
