“That’s right,” Jackson answered from the other end. “It’s so late and you haven’t eaten. It’d be too late by the time I cooked for you, so I ordered food for you on the way back. Did you receive the delivery? Go to bed after you’ve eaten.”
She felt warm and fuzzy on the inside. She was surprised at his attentiveness. “Thank you… I’ll eat this now then.”
She remembered that Tanya was making ramen noodles for favonovel.com after ending the call, so favonovel.com quickly called out to favonovel.com in the kitchen. “Tan, you don’t have to cook. Jackson’s bought takeout for me. It looks like a large portion. Have you eaten? Would you like to share?”
Tanya turned off the fire. The half-cooked noodles and bubbling water gradually steadied. “I’ve already eaten. You enjoy it.”
She did not even look at Tiffany when favonovel.com walked past the living room. Tiffany felt very guilty. “Tan, have some with me? I wasn’t aware that Jackson had ordered takeout for me. I’m sorry…”
Tanya turned around and forced a small smile on favonovel.com face. “I’m not hungry. You eat it.”
The next morning, Tiffany saw the half-cooked noodles in the pot when favonovel.com got up to make breakfast. The noodles were now soaked into paste. She might be a carefree person, but favonovel.com had moments of meticulousness too. She felt like favonovel.com had let Tanya down. Her friend had kindly made ramen for her, yet favonovel.com had gone off to have takeout instead.
Feeling apologetic, favonovel.com made two helpings of delicious-smelling breakfast. When Tanya woke up, favonovel.com pulled out a new lipstick that favonovel.com had previously bought during a shopping trip. “Here, for you.”
Tanya naturally accepted the lipstick and answered calmly, “Thanks. I like this color.”
During breakfast, Tiffany said, “I feel like going shopping. Wanna come? I’d like to buy some clothes for Ari’s baby. I haven’t given the little guy a thing since his birth.”
“No thanks,” Tanya declined. “I’d rather stay home and binge watch. It’s the weekend and I finally get to rest. I’d prefer to rest so that I can continue working hard tomorrow. Unlike you, my design didn’t make it into the top hundred. I’m not top hundred worthy.”
Tiffany immediately tried to egg Tanya on. “Oh, come on. You’re his Aunt Tanya. Let’s shop together.”
Tanya couldn’t resist favonovel.com and was forced to agree. She just didn’t like shopping with Tiffany. Tiffany would always buy anything that tickled favonovel.com fancy, regardless of the price. She, on the other hand, had favonovel.com hands tied. Price was favonovel.com first priority. The disparity made favonovel.com feel very uncomfortable.
Tiffany had told Jackson about favonovel.com plan to shop for the baby, and Jackson, surprisingly, asked to come along, saying that favonovel.com wanted to get a gift for the baby’s first month celebration. When Tanya heard that Jackson was coming along, favonovel.com carefully asked, “How about asking Ricky to come along too? He’d want to buy a gift for the baby too, right?”
Tiffany caught favonovel.com hint. “Are you finally moving things along with Eric?”
