It's been half a year since Selene and Ezekiel got married. She went to her best friend's house. Jennie greeted her with her five-month-old daughter. Jennie got married a year before Selene did. She married Ezekiel's dorm mate.

"I was planning on a girls' night out for us on Saturday. I've already told Rose and Sara."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXd1W8buIV
"It's been a while since we saw Sara. Have you seen her after she got off her flight?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLlebDgsI0
Jennie was playing with her daughter's hand. "Not yet. You see, it's hard to go out since I was taking care of this little brat. She doesn't like going out that much."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZOFUUsALe
"I think she's just shy," Selene said.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5m1PWaV6E
"I think she inherited her father's introverted behavior," Jennie said a bit disdainfully.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqwkOlJp81
Selene laughed. "You do not look happy about it. Remember, that's the first thing that caught your eyes. You said you liked it when he was not talking to anyone that easily."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRejS4MJF2
Jennie snorted. "That is when we are in college. I don't want girls always hanging around him." She said,
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPCf1NeLvi
"So, you mean, right now it's okay for him to be close to other girls?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVKlCBx2XL
Jennie glared at her. "You think I would tolerate him if I knew he was being chummy with other girls? See if he tries. This little brat and I will leave without turning back."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmu34LR7pm
Selene burst out laughing. "You're so savage. Since you liked him being introverted, then you have to accept the fact that your daughter is just like him."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBj9hQUL7F
Jennie frowned visibly. "Well, at least she inherited my beauty."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwAtMYSGfB
Selene choked while drinking her lemonade.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgLJJ9F2pu
Jennie saw it. "What?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNfjWlXHqc
Selene shakes her head. "Nothing." She said, "Anyway, Rose said our college classmate was planning on a reunion. Have you been active in our group chat?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wECm3HkeW
Jennie put down the baby on the soft mat to let her crawl around. The little cutie was bubbling gibberish. Selene can't help but feel envious. "I haven't been that active in the group chat. I was busy in the morning taking care of Sophie. At night I was busy doing my manuscript."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtRyqfJfpO
Selene raised her eyebrow. "Oh? was it you're busy rolling around the sheets with Dustin?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMwoqUGMwW
Jennie was disgusted with her best friend. "I will let Ezekiel know to restrain your night's activities together. You're turning nastier each time I see you."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl9WRst6NQ
Selene was grinning like crazy, feeling proud of teasing her friend. She felt a soft thing bumping on her feet. When she looked down, she saw her goddaughter looking at her. She looked adorable with her large, misty eyes. She can't help but pick her up and sit the adorable baby on her lap.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lVCrRjmG1
Jennie was able to see how doting her best friend was to Sophie. "Are you not planning on having your own?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5y4ePgfuu
Selene was mesmerized playing with Sophie. "We are ready. It's just that I think it's not time yet." She said, a bit wistfully. She wants to have her child so badly. They are not taking any protections, “Ezekiel also thinks it's about time."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TL1ghcaSm
"Do you think you have a problem or perhaps..." Jennie said with an ambiguous air around her.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyypD2QDn5t
Selene caught what she meant. She glared at her. "He is healthy, and so am I."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIZYNcFeZF
Jennie laughed. "I'm not saying he can't. What I meant is if he knows how to. Maybe he is not that aggressive in bed."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yr7EYUvP5
Selene was beginning to be flustered, with Jennie being shameless. "Stop it. He knows how to, of course. He was really on it every night."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNo39BU4jB
With the last thing, Selene said, Jennie, can't help but burst out laughing. It made the baby cry as she was startled by the sudden laugh of her mother. Selene tried to amuse the startled baby, but it didn't stop crying. Jennie gave her the milk. When she was able to taste the milk, she stopped crying instantly.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm09tJtOSH
Jennie was in the kitchen. It was already time for dinner. She let her handle the baby matter to her friend. Selene was watching a tv program while holding the baby, then suddenly, the baby pushed the bottle away. She looked at the baby. She was staring at her as well. She continued pushing the bottle away. She was looking so serious. Selene was amused. At that very moment, the baby looked so mature. She almost laughed, when suddenly something flashed in her eyes- a distant memory.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZZidkCvCx
Jennie came from the kitchen. She was wondering if Selene will stay for dinner. But then she was greeted by a dazed Selene while the baby was pulling on her friend’s long hair. Does this dummy can't feel pain?! She thought. She came close and grabbed the baby out of Selene's embrace, then Selene was freed from her daze. Jennie looked at her funny. "What’s with you?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9B7oLvvaQ
Selene was not her usual self. "Jen, I need to go. I need to go and cook dinner for Zeke."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaJqytadeJ
"Wait, aren't you staying here for dinner? It's been a while since we last saw each other."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuecI59f4Rb
"I'm sorry, maybe next time?" Selene said, although their house was not that far from each other, it was their working schedule that always stopped them from seeing each other.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmY0vxqzNY
When Selene came home, she already smelled something. She knew Zeke was already home and cooking. After she changed her shoes for slippers, she went inside the kitchen. Zeke was still in his working attire, minus the coat. His Long white sleeves were rolled up and there was a black apron tied to his waist. This is the sight that never fails to make her fall in love with him over and over again. However, today was not one of those days, for she was really upset with him right now.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWLI5MiuR2
Ezekiel felt someone was watching him from the other side. He looked up from his cooking and saw his wife. He smiled. "Wife, the dinner will be ready in just a moment. Wash your hands and help me set up the table."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGDGLBPkc9
But Selene was not in the mood to be a good wife at that moment. She just stared at him seriously.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WRPytw78M
Ezekiel was able to read the mood. He looked at her, worried. "Why, what's wrong? Something happened?" He turned off the fire and walked to her.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawq67ypj5N
She shakes her head. "Why, why did you reject me in middle school? Was it because you don't like me, or was it because your family was moving abroad?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB3bXLcgbz
Ezekiel doesn't know if he's going to cry or laugh. It has been almost seven years, and she still... Wait. "Have you remembered that day?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWvRRENVaK
She nodded. I asked you to go to the park with me, I remembered, you carried a comic with you, we stayed there for like an hour, it was the day I confessed to you, I knew you were going to a boarding school, and I wanted to be your girlfriend before you go. So, tell me, what's the reason? “
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ9mPXneWV
Ezekiel sighed. He came closer and embraced her. "Wife, before, I was not really into you. We are still young. But I know you are the only girl I felt attached to. Later, after several years of not seeing you, I finally realize I like you enough to be my girlfriend. That’s why I chose to have the same university we attended.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBySAoJyHA
Selene was disappointed that he answered neither of the two of what she thought of, so she was still frowning."
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLsJUtQaom
"Hey, I can't believe you will remember that." Ezekiel has a smile on his handsome face.
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dpX3Oyi8y
She looked up from his embrace. "So, you prefer that I didn't, right?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiFz0rnl7O
"Of course not. Why would I?"
107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4OQBK0ADQ
She just looked at him. She didn't know why, but the more she looked at his smiling face, the more her frown went deeper. She had the feeling that he was happy he was able to make a fool out of her. "You sleep in the next room tonight." She said and then untangled herself from his embrace and then left the kitchen. Ezekiel was left alone; speechless. He could not believe he could sleep alone. What if Selene asked him to sleep alone until next week?! Next week is Valentine’s day!
