“Back when you were pregnant with me and ate like a glutton, how much did I weigh when I was born? Are you sure that all of that meat grew onto my bones?” Jackson asked with a smile.
Summer curled favonovel.com lips. “You were a disappointment. You didn’t want to be a fleshy baby. I gained more than 24kg from the time I got pregnant to the moment I delivered you. In the end, you were only 3.9kg when you were born, not even 42kg. What a waste of my efforts. I was so afraid of any hiccups during my pregnancy.”
Jackson was crestfallen. “The most frequent word I’ve heard from you, ever since I was a kid, is ‘disappointment’. That I’m a disappointment. I really wonder, where have I failed? I’m the kid that our neighbors compare their kids to, and you keep telling me that I’m a disappointment. You should learn from your mistakes. Your increased food intake doesn’t necessarily translate to the baby. So, stop force-feeding Tiffie. She’s already got a body that fattens up easily, and she’s been looking rather robust lately…”
Tiffany secretly stomped on his foot. Robust? Don’t ever use that word to describe favonovel.com again!
Jackson’s leg was in pain. He didn’t dare say another word. He continued eating his food, pretending as if nothing had happened. Summer sighed. “Fine, fine fine. From now on, Tiffie can have as much or as little as favonovel.com wants to eat. I won’t butt in. Can’t I feel sorry for Tiffie? After all, you feel sorry for your own wife.”
After dinner, Tiffany felt sleepy so favonovel.com went upstairs to get some rest. She had walked around all day today and was feeling an exhaustion like never before. Everything else really did seem different after pregnancy. She didn’t feel too different at first, but as time went on, favonovel.com did.
Jackson hung around downstairs for a while, then went upstairs. He had just pushed open his room door when Summer stopped him. “What are you doing? You will sleep in the guestroom next door. Don’t disturb Tiffie’s rest.”
He was stunned. “Why? Why would I disturb favonovel.com rest? Haven’t I been sleeping with favonovel.com all this time at my place?”
Summer dragged favonovel.com away, refusing to provide any explanation. “You’d better stop for a while then. She’s pregnant now. You are going to exercise restraint!”
He was now completely annoyed. “What are you thinking? Do you have any idea how long it’s been since I’ve touched her? Forget it. It’s inappropriate for me to talk to you about these things. Can’t you manage your own husband, instead of someone else’s? Go go go!”
Summer stuffed favonovel.com into the guestroom with a non-negotiable look on favonovel.com face and warned favonovel.com a few more times before leaving.
Tiffany couldn’t seem to sleep well, as favonovel.com hadn’t returned to the room. She drowsily fumbled around for favonovel.com phone, then called him. “What are you doing? Come to bed.”
He was close to tears. “My mom wants me to sleep in the room next to yours because she’s worried that I might do things to you. You’re the biological child. I’m adopted.”
She eyed the door and whispered, “Then wait until much later, when they’ve both gone to sleep, and sneak in. I’m already not used to sleeping here. It’ll be even more difficult for me to sleep without you around. There’s a big storm outside, and it’s thundering. I’m scared.”
His tone softened. “Okay, I’ll come over later. Try and get some sleep first. Don’t be scared.”
Summer and Atticus finally went to bed at 11PM. Jackson felt relieved. He could not understand how the old folks had managed to stand it. He quietly slipped into Tiffany’s room, then deftly stripped and climbed into bed. Then, favonovel.com pulled favonovel.com soft, fragrant figure into his arms. Now, everything felt right.
Tiffany shifted a little in his arms. “Why aren’t you wearing clothes?”
