chapter 26 the picture of you two

during the night, Matthew had fever. his temperature was thirty nine. there was no way he could sleep alone.

the family doctor said "you need to put him in cold water, after ten minutes. you get him out and warm him again. if the fever breaks again you repeat the method."

" doctor, by 'warming him' it mean that I should lie under the same blanket? "

" yes, it's more advisable if the warmth come from your skin to his skin, the fever will break down easily."

" is there any other method doctor?"

" that's what you'll do for now, if it won't work, you can call me back."

" okay"

it was a long night, she slept well at 4:30 in the morning. she was very tired after taking care of a sick man. she woke up with her ringtone

" hello" she spoke in a husky voice

"Glory are you still sleeping?"

"yes" she answered

"you are sleeping at twelve?"

"ooh it's still early let me sleep for sometime"

" really, sleep for a while, you.... "

beep... beep... beep...

'ooh this girl needs a mental hospital she has hung up. let me call her back'

"Jane you better have something important to say you can't call me at midnight twice, speak it or I hung up."

"Glory dearest, our sleeping beauty..."

"cut the crap, what's that so important?"

"hey it's not midnight it's midday, you've missed all morning classes sleeping beauty."

"shit, where's that bastard, am going to kill him today"

"hey hey! chill, you can't kill in a bright day light. and who's that you are going to kill?"

"ooh! that's my son, my first born he was sick last night, I took care of him until dawn and he didn't wake me up! let me settle some scores with him."

" Glory you are going to kill me one day with your surprises. so you have a kid?"

"kids not kid"

"ooh my God, you never mentioned anything about it."

"did you tell me how you started dating Tim? by the way it's been long since I saw him, where's he? "

Matthew was eavesdropping their conversation, he was extremely happy when he heard Glory referring him a her son, but he can't be happy when she's asking for another man. so he walked in the bedroom.

" he's been busy with work, how's Matthew?"

" ooh that jerk? I have not seen him in a while...."

" huh.. but the pictures of you two has been uploaded in Y City university WeChat group, it shows that you were together last night in the car. "

" really Glory! why are you changing the topic?"

" because I want to punch Matthew's face right now. bye, see you later in school. " she hung up directly

" hello sleeping beauty.. did you... ugh.. why did you punch my nose?"
