Tiffany got down from the car and gave favonovel.com a bottle of mineral water. “Are you feeling better? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Maybe you should sit in the front instead? You’ll feel better then.”
“That’s not a good idea, is it?” Tanya asked. “I’ve heard that a lot of people believe that the front seat of a man’s car should only be occupied by his girlfriend… You and Jackson won’t mind?”
Tiffany, ever insensitive, simply never thought of it that way. “What are you talking about? What are we? Do we have to nitpick over these things? I can’t possibly leave you feeling uncomfortable, can I? Stop talking and get in the car. You’re sitting in the front.”
Jackson furrowed his brow when someone else climbed into the front seat for some strange reason. “What’s going on? Why did you change seats?”
“Tan’s caught a cold and isn’t feeling well. She’s car sick,” Tiffany explained. “Let favonovel.com sit in the front. It doesn’t matter who sits in the front anyway. The back seat feels really spacious to me. Start driving. It’s been raining so much over the past few days, it’s annoying. Why can’t we just have a heavy downpour and be done with it? Instead, we keep getting drizzles. It’s so dense. I only got down from the car and my hair’s all wet…”
Jackson didn’t want to say anything more. They couldn’t have anything too heavy, due to Tanya’s cold. Tiffany recommended the Chinese restaurant that favonovel.com had gone to with Alejandro. She simply felt that the Chinese cuisine there was light and comforting, and delicious too.
Just as they walked into the restaurant, a waitress stepped forward and greeted Tiffany warmly. “Hello miss, will it be the same table tonight?”
Tiffany stared blankly at her. Alejandro had booked the table the last time, so favonovel.com had no idea why the waitress would talk to her. She didn’t exactly have a striking appearance, right? Alejandro was more recognizable. “Uh… No need. Any table will do. For three.”
Jackson caught the hint. After they were seated and had ordered their food, favonovel.com scowled and asked, “Who did you eat with here?”
“Alejandro,” Tiffany replied honestly. “I just thought that the food was delicious here, and it’s light-flavored comfort food. Tan is sick, so favonovel.com can’t have anything too heavy. Nothing else.”
Jackson sighed. “Couldn’t you lie? Don’t you know that you can hurt someone’s feelings when you’re too frank sometimes?”
Tiffany chuckled. “Feeling uneasy? You’ll have to bear with it. I don’t like lying.”
Tanya silently listened to their conversation and did not butt in. She quietly poured tea for both of them. Jackson wasn’t used to drinking tea, especially not restaurant tea, so favonovel.com pushed his cup aside after thanking her. Tanya’s pupils vibrated a little when favonovel.com noticed this. “What’s wrong?” favonovel.com asked with a smile. “Are you too afraid to drink tea from another woman? Scared that Tiffany will get angry?”
“He doesn’t like drinking tea,” Tiffany answered for Jackson instinctively. “Not even I, his ex-girlfriend, could make favonovel.com drink it, let alone other women.”
Surprised at favonovel.com scrupulousness in remembering his habits, Jackson’s eyes finally lit up. “Do you have any plans for the weekend? If not, come and have some fun with me. I’m going to Ayashe to sign a contract. I can bring you along for a two-day vacation.”
Of course, favonovel.com had no plans. However, Tiffany wouldn’t agree to this so easily. “Why are you taking me, your ex-girlfriend, on a vacation? Besides, it’s been raining non-stop lately. It’s depressing. I want to stay home and sleep.”
Jackson pulled out his phone and searched for the weather report on Ayashe. “See for yourself, it’s not raining in Ayashe. The skies are clear and hotter than the capital. It could be a great way to avoid the rain.”
“Just to avoid the rain?” Tiffany exclaimed, unable to resist treating favonovel.com with snark. “You’re being too extravagant. Let me think about it. Let’s have dinner first.”
“Tiffany, you should go, ” Tanya chimed in. “Can I come along too? That is, if you don’t mind.”
Initially hesitant, Tiffany agreed after hearing Tanya’s advice. “Alright, let’s go together, since you want to go too.”
