The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

A short while later, Sophia texted, ‘I think Ms. Bloom likes your ex.’

Matilda froze up. If even Sophia could see it, that meant she wasn’t imagining things. ‘I see,’ she replied, then Sophia stopped texting her. When Matilda was done with dinner, Yolanda was still there.

After thinking it over, she said, “You guys carry on. I’ll see what Sophia is doing. Maybe she needs help finding her stuff.”

At this, William only looked at her, saying nothing. After that, Matilda slowly went upstairs, and her expression became gloomier with each step. When she came to Sophia’s room, Sophia was lying on the bed, scrolling through her phone. At the sight of Matilda, she rolled and sat up. “What brings you here? Aren’t you going to chat with them?”

Matilda hummed a placid response. “Hey, be careful. You’re pregnant, you know, so go slow.”

“Yeah, yeah.” Then she lay back down. “But if you’re not there, Ms. Bloom will be chatting happily with your ex.”

Matilda walked over and sat on the bed. “Whatever. I don’t care even if they want to sleep in the same bed. It has nothing to do with me anyway.”

Sophia clicked her tongue. “And you say I’m forward. You’re the same, aren’t you?” Sophia sighed. “If they do sleep together, you’d probably die of heartbreak.”

Matilda snorted. “As if.”
