Within a week, Olivia moved nearly all her things from her house.
Tiana went to look for her one day. When she entered Olivia's house, she saw her packing up her clothes. Then she saw the condition of the house; she was so shocked that she stood rooted on the spot and didn't dare to move an inch.
"Have I... come to the wrong place?"
Olivia rolled her eyes at her and said, "Is this your first time here? Can't you even recognize my house?"
Tiana was utterly shocked. She stood on the spot and scrutinized her surroundings. She felt this wasn't the house she came to before no matter how she looked.
She still found it unbelievable. "Is this really your house?"
"Obviously."
Tiana asked while stuttering, "Were you robbed recently? Did you call the cops? D*mn, or are you bankrupt?"
Olivia looked at her as if she was a fool. She said sarcastically, "Tiana, did you get amnesia? Who was the one who suggested I move my things over to Sam's house? I'm now cooking at his place, so of course, I have to bring my things over. Is it weird that my house is empty after I move my things over?"
"Isn't this weird?"
"Is this weird?"
"How is this not weird?"
Was it weird? Olivia just couldn't get it. How was this weird?
"Is it weird?" she asked herself again.
Tiana said to her speechlessly, "Isn't this weird? Get your facts straight; you're just there to cook for him. I suggested you move your things in the beginning because you wanted to spend money on pots and pans. I didn't ask you to move your whole house over, did I? But look at you, your house is about to be empty from all the moving... Honestly, your house looks like it was robbed a hundred times. It's insane."
Robbed a hundred times...
What kind of lame description was that?
However, after Tiana's comment, Olivia too felt that it was a little weird, but she soon thought it through. "I don't think it's weird. I'm cooking over there, and you know my job; it would be tiring for me to run back and forth. So if I were to go over there, it is only natural for me to move the things from my house over and make it an environment I like. That way, I would be in the mood to work there. I don't think there's any issue with that."
Tiana stared at her without saying anything.
"Why are you staring at me like that? It's kind of scary..."
"I'm just thinking; you're only moving your things over now. Will you... stay at his place in the future?"
This statement stunned Olivia, and she froze on the spot. She only got back to her senses after some time. She scolded Tiana harshly, "You're nuts! That's impossible! We are just a pretend couple. I would never stay at his house!"
Sam would remind her from time to time that they were just a pretend couple. He made it as if she was desperately clinging to him. If it weren't to put up with her mother, she wouldn't have gone to such an extent.
She was in such a difficult state.
"I don't think that's the case for sure." Tiana put on a serious look and got close to her. "Perhaps you two might end up becoming a real couple."
"Impossible," Olivia denied in an instant.
"Are you not confident in yourself? Or you don't like him at all?"
