The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Annoyed by his behavior, Sophia ignored him. “Where were we?” She turned to Ian. “You said you want to tell me something. What is it?”

Ian smiled. “Forget it. I’ll tell you when I have the chance.”

John looked up at Ian, and he raised his cup. A faint smile appeared on his face, but Sophia was oblivious to it. “Okay,” she said.

The atmosphere quickly turned awkward, for Ian and John both said nothing, while Sophia didn’t know what to say as well. Then, John looked at Sophia’s phone that was on the table, and he picked it up. “You’ve been using this for a while now.”

“What are you doing?” Sophia protested.

“I remember buying this for you.” John held it tightly.

Sophia was surprised he remembered that. Before she married John, she was using a no-name phone. She complained about it being laggy, so John asked Zack to change it right away. Or maybe it was because he thought it dragged his class down. Either way, Sophia glared at him. “So you’re going to even take back the phone now?”

John smiled. Then, he tried to unlock her phone, but the password was incorrect. I knew it. She doesn’t even defend against Husky, but her guard is all up against me. Thus, he tossed the phone back at Sophia. “No. It’s just something I remembered.”
