My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Hendrix followed and noticed that I was staring blankly at the table. He hugged me from behind and said, "The book said that pregnant women should avoid heavy-flavored meals. So, I didn't add much chili to it. Have a taste?"

I looked up at him, feeling as though I was trapped in a dream where I had exchanged my life with Andrea.

I had been married to Hendrix for two years but he had never taken care of me so meticulously.

It seemed that he had matched his gentleness for Andrea in the past and treated me the same. It felt surreal, and I wasn't ready to accept that.

He seated me at the table, and I numbly took a few bites. The noodle was delicious, but I had no appetite as I had a lot going on in my mind. Seeing that I only had a few bites, Hendrix frowned and asked, "You don't like it?"

I shook my head. "No, I'm just not that hungry."

"Have some more. Otherwise, you'll feel hungry later tonight." As he spoke, he got up and opened the refrigerator to get me some milk.

Hendrix spent the night with me at the Bronzy Condo.
