Ivy and Cory were exhausted today. They went to bed right after taking a shower upon arriving home.
Rosalynn was zoning out while sitting on the couch. Paige was doing the same.
Starting from the afternoon, she had been visibly anxious, checking her phone every minute. Now, she suddenly stopped checking her phone. Even when she received a message, she just stared at the ceiling without reacting.
"Your phone has been ringing nonstop." Rosalynn reminded her.
"It's just my mom sending messages in the group chat, nothing important." Paige replied.
"Is she nagging you about dating again?" Rosalynn asked.
"Yeah, she's always pushing people to date. If she knew you were still single and raising children on your own, she'd be nagging you too."
"Where did all this resentment come from?" Rosalynn looked at Paige. "Just talk to me."
"It's really nothing. She's just complimenting Logan's blind date, wishing he could marry her off right away." Paige lifted her hand, her slender arm covering her eyes. "Logan doesn't even care as much as she does."
"How old is Logan this year?" Rosalynn calculated, "He's 35, right? Seems reasonable for your mom to be anxious."
Paige didn't say anything for a while and then said with a sigh, "Yeah, it is reasonable, I'm just annoyed with her nagging."
"Although I don't think marriage is a necessity for humans, didn't you used to yearn for a good partner and a warm, happy life together? How did you become so indifferent in just a few years?" Rosalynn was genuinely puzzled.
Paige was the kind of person who could pull off things like picking men in a bar.
"Who's indifferent?" Paige muttered, "I'm just too busy to date, don't worry, I'm annoyed with my mom too, I'll go find someone tomorrow, six years younger!"
That girl couldn't be considered as Logan's childhood sweetheart. She was six years younger than Logan!!
"Take it easy." Rosalynn patted Paige's long leg.
Something was off about Paige, and Rosalynn could feel it. But with Paige, if she didn't want to talk about it, even if you pry her mouth open, she still wouldn't say a word.
