Ever since the unpleasant conversation that day, Harrison and I have been in a cold war stage.
But gradually, I found that from beginning to end, it seemed that I was the only one who thought it was a cold war. Harrison had no feeling at all.
He would still take me to work, and he would tell me everything. Even if I locked the door at night, we would still lie on the same bed when I woke up. Sometimes I was so angry that I couldn't ask him, but he just said, "This is our bed, not here."
"Sister Chelsea, have you been feeling uncomfortable recently?" His colleague, Xiaowu, suddenly stopped at my desk.
The dazed me froze. "What did you just say?" I asked after I regained my composure.
Xiao Wu covered his mouth and smiled. "I just said that you are not feeling well, Sister
Chelsea. Why haven't you been in a good state recently?"
"No, I don't. How could it be?" I denied with a smile.
"You don't know. We're all discussing something in private," Little Wu said mysteriously.
Knowing that she was trying to arouse my curiosity, I followed her footsteps and asked, "What's the matter? Do you have any gossip in private?"
"How could it be gossip? We are all serious about something," Little Wu said seriously.
I nodded and echoed, "Yes, yes, yes. You're right. What can you tell me now?"
Xiao Wu looked around, carefully bent down, and mysteriously whispered in my ear, "We are talking about Sister Chelsea in private, saying that you have been absent- minded recently. Is it a good thing coming soon?"
At first, I didn't understand what she meant. Later, when I saw her blinking at me ambiguously, I realized that these people were suspecting that I was getting married.
It's funny to think about it. In the past, no one doubted our marriage when we were in a good relationship. Why are we in conflict now? And when the problem is very big, people say that we are married. Is it more and more like marriage when there's something wrong?
I smiled and said to Little Wu, "Now you can go back and tell them that those so-called gossip thoughts are not allowed. Harrison and I don't want to get married, let alone get ready to get married."
"Oh, who told you that we're married?" Little Wu looked at me helplessly.
This time, it's my turn to be helpless. "What else can it be if it's not a marriage? Didn't you say that good things are coming soon?"
"We are thinking that you are pregnant!” Xiaowu shook his head helplessly and said, "Forget it. I can tell from your appearance that you are pregnant."
In the face of Xiao Wu's disappointment, I could only smile bitterly.
"Pregnant? I want to ask someone why I haven't been pregnant with Harrison for such a long time. Is it because we're not fated?"
After Xiao Wu left, I went to the lounge. At noon, I didn't feel hungry and didn't eat anything. Now after Xiao Wu made such a scene, I felt it again.
She made a cup of black tea and ate two small pieces of bread. Only then did she feel that she had suppressed her hunger.
At this moment, someone also came in. I looked up and saw Liu Qian's figure. I wanted to smile at her, but when I thought that we were like strangers now, I stopped smiling and lowered my head to take a sip of tea.
I thought that even if Liu Qian wouldn't leave immediately when she saw me here, at least she would leave after drinking the water. I didn't expect her to sit down next to me.
She wants to sit with me, but it doesn't mean that I want to be with her. I got up and packed up my things and walked to the door.
