“Ahhhh!”
I scream and jump up. I take a napkin and wipe out the coffee on my face.
The burn is swollen and painful. I look up at the woman in front of me and frown.
I remember her. She is the woman who came with Steven Song’s mother that day, her name is Violet
Sue.
“Are you crazy?”
I stare at this woman in front of me.
As soon as I speak, the skin on my face hurt, and I call the waiter to bring me some ice.
“You shameless bitch! How dare you steal my man!”
Violet Sue’s expression is ferocious. It doesn’t match her delicate face at all.
It is true that a woman can’t keep sober as long as she gets involved with men.
The crowd around are all looking this way, waiting for a good play.
The waiter has brought me an ice pack and I feel better by putting it on my face.
I snort and says to the woman, “you know clearly that Steven Song doesn’t like you. Don't blame me
for his neglect of you. If you want to talk to me about it, I'll bring Steven Song here right now and have
him confront with you.”
I just want to scare Violet Sue, but she is scared.
After giving me a passive look, she turns to me and says, “Why bother him? I just slipped. If you get
hurt, I can take you to the hospital. Why call Steven Song here?”
“I want him to drive me to the hospital, can't I?”
I say triumphantly, smiling at Violet Sue.
Violet Sue is so angry and afraid to provoke me again. She leaves shamefacedly.
But he hurts my face and I can’t let her go so easily.
I grab Violet Sue's arm and shove the ice pack straight into her chest.
She burns me with hot coffee and I will freeze her with the ice bag!
The rainy day is cold. Violet Sue shudders as she looks at me with a frightened face.
She probably doesn’t expect me to do this. The expression on her face is very embarrassed.
The next second, something even more embarrassing happens.
She is wearing a dress. The ice bag rolls off through her body and drops on her feet.
I feel excited in my heart that I pretend to be sorry and says, “I'm sorry. I think you are so angry that I
want to cool you down with an ice pack. I didn't expect you to be so flat. I thought it would last at least a
few seconds.”
The sound of laughter comes from around. A lot of people are pointing at me, as if giving me thumbs
up.
Hearing what I said, Violet Sue’s face turns pale. She gnashes her teeth at me, “bitch, I won't let you off
so easily next time!”
She looks around at the crowd of spectators and flees away, clutching her chest.
After paying the bill, I cover my red swollen face and go to the drugstore nearby to buy some medicine.
It's difficult to take a taxi because of the rain. It takes me long time to stop a taxi. When I get back to
Louis’s house, it has already been ten o 'clock in the evening.
Frances Louis sits on the sofa in the living room, staring at the TV.
The TV is off. What the hell is he watching? See your handsome reflection on the screen? I don't think
Frances Louis is so narcissistic, is he?
I go in with confusion. As soon as I step in, Frances Louis's eyes come over.
“Where have you been?”
His face is dark and he comes towards me step by step.
