The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

She looked like a completely different person, like she was a healthier and younger version of herself. Ignoring John’s reaction, she went to put her shopping bags on the coffee table. Obviously, they went to the mall and got a lot of snacks. Matilda picked a couple and handed it to Sophia and Ms. Cannon. “Here. I think these are fine.”

John smiled. “I tried to call you ladies.”

Matilda grunted. “Really? I didn’t hear it.”

John didn’t mind her remark. “So you ladies had dinner? What did you have?”

Ms. Cannon answered, “Barbecue. It was delicious.”

John nodded at them. “I’ll get delivery then.” Then, he took his phone out and told Matilda, “You look great today. A lot better than how you used to be.”

Matilda was caught by surprise, and she was going to smile, but she stopped herself in time. “I’ve always looked good,” she huffed.

John looked at Matilda and Sophia before turning to Ms. Cannon. However, Ms. Cannon went to the kitchen and loaded the fridge with the things they bought, and she didn’t look at him. Thus, John looked away and called for his delivery before looking at Sophia. She didn’t even look at him after coming back, and her expression was gloomy all the while. Since he was sitting on the sofa, she went to the hanging chair with her pack of snacks in hand.
