After Miya sent away Bella, a picture flashes through her mind. She remembers the thing that she was
plan to tell Alex is Alex’s father asking him come back home for dinner.
Miya takes a note in the notebook, thinking of telling Alex after he comes back. But she doesn’t know
why she hasn’t seen him till the midnight, and his mobile is power off.
She can do nothing but calls Randy, fortunately Randy’s phone is connected.
“Miya, what happened?” since he visited Alex last time, Randy has changed his attitude to her.
“Hello, where is Alex?”
Once Randy hears Miya’s voice, he shocks a bit and feels kind of guilty, luckily they can’t see each
other.
“Miya, something are going wrong in the company, so Alex has been staying up all night to solve the
problem.”
“Why doesn’t he pick up my phone if he is staying up to solve the problem?” normally this kind of
situation won’t happen, but she feels something big is going to happen tonight.
She sits on the edge of the bed, looks like a normal housewife waiting for her husband coming home.
Until the sun rises, she hears the sound from the gate.
Miya walks there quickly, and sees Alex stumbles towards her. Obviously he is drunk. As soon as Miya
stands next to him and supports him with her hands, a strong alcoholic breath floats to her, making her
feel sick.
“What happened to you? Why did you drink so much?” Miya asks.
But Alex just kisses her on the lips, eagerly and enthusiastically.
The current Alex is quite abnormal, Miya pushes against his chest, “Alex, tell me what the hell is going
on? Say something!”
But Alex carries her to the bed, kissing her from her forehead to toes.
“Alex!” Miya shouts at him, but seemingly Alex doesn’t hear it.
In the end, he falls asleep on her. Miya sighs, and moves Alex away from her, undressing him.
It’s almost day break now, Miya thinks Alex may not go to company today, so she wants him catch up
on sleep.
She takes off his suit, but she catches sight of the lipstick marks on his white shirt.
Miya is shocked, since she knew she was pregnant, she has never worn make-ups, obviously these
lipstick marks do not belong to her.
Her astonishment makes Alex who is supposed to be held by her fall on the bed. He mumbles for a
while, then continue to sleep.
But Miya thoroughly loses sleep. She stares at the sleeping man, tears come out of eyes
unconsciously. She calms herself, thinking that maybe some misunderstandings.
She’s married with Alex, and they have several children. She can’t mad at him with something never
happened, that’s bad for her life. Moreover, she believes in Alex will never betray her.
Yes, she must calm down. There’s a fetus in her belly, she can’t get angry easily.
She’s been sitting beside Alex, waiting him sober up, apologizing and explaining to her.
But after Alex wakes up, he doesn’t have the good temper.
“Why are you here?” he frowns, seemingly has a bad mood.
Miya adjusts her mindset, thinking that should be the morning temperament, basically everyone has it.
“This is our home!” Miya feels he’s funny, “Don’t you even recognize your home?”
After Alex hears that, he looks around, everything is same as his impression.
“Why am I home? When did I go home?” Alex jumps up suddenly, “What time is it?”
He looks at the clock on the bedside. The hour hand points at ten, he gets up and and walks to the
restroom without giving any response to her.
Miya can’t tell him the lost inside her. She’s been waiting for a whole night. When he finally wakes up,
she thinks he will explain something to her, but he...His attitude hasn’t been so bad for a long time.
And the lipstick marks on his shirt...
Miya holds that white shirt in hands, she brushes the marks on shirt. She doesn’t know how to ask
Alex.
She’s been kind of frighten. She’s afraid that she will hear the bad news.
Alex comes out from toilet, seeing Miya sits dully on the bed. He feels a bit guilty about his attitude just
now. He puts his arms around her, his chin against her head, “Sorry, there was a dinner party last night.
It was very important to Alex Group, so I came back late.”
Miya pinches the shirt but she didn’t say anything. Eventually, she chooses to believe him.
“Honey, your dad said he missed you, and he hoped that you could come home for dinner.”
After all, Miya wants to tell Alex about this thing. She’s afraid that she will forget to tell him.
After Alex hears about this thing, he feels uncomfortable.
“Don’t pay attention to them!”
Alex’s face looks serious, and his tone sounds impatient. “Don’t listen to anybody in that house!
Especially this kind of persuasion. Don’t meddle in these affairs. Listen to me. Be good!”
When Alex says this, he kisses on Miya’s forehead, then leaves the house.
Miya has been so lost since he left. She feels that Alex has been changed a lot, but she can’t tell which
part he changes. In a word, he seems never be the man she was familiar with.
Miya doesn’t know what happened to him, and Alex keeps hiding something from her, making her has
fewer chances to get the news.
The performance of Alex on this morning, undermines Miya’s self-confidence that was hard to build last
night.
This morning after the kids all went to school and Alex left, Miya feels lonely in this empty room.
She hasn’t felt this kind of lonely for a long time.
At this time, the doorbell rings.
She thinks it maybe Bella again, because she didn’t tell Alex what Bella trusted her. Alex said he went
to a dinner party last night, that means he didn’t go back to his parents’ house.
But the person outside the door isn’t the one she thinks.
“Miya, it’s been a long time.”
The voice is gentle, Susan stands tenderly outside the door. She waves at Miya.
“Alex is not inside, neither the kids.” There’s only Miya in this house right now. She means Susan
comes at the wrong time.
Susan seems know everything, she says, “I’m coming for you today. I want to tell you one thing.”
“I want to talk with you about one thing related to Alex.”
“Miya, it’s been a long time.”
The voice is gentle, Susan stands tenderly outside the door. She waves at Miya.
