Chapter 128: Imagining happy times
The following thoughts were going on inside Xia's head as he saw her cooking.
"She's so beautiful. That smile really is dazzling. And in that apron, with all the humming, she kind of feels like a little bee. Buzzing about in her home. How nice it would be if this was my home and she was my wife." He shook his head, "No, it will be really nice when she will cook like this with me. I can't believe that I wasted seven years of my life in which we could have been so happy. This would be the scene after we both came back home from work everyday." Si Xia did not notice a warm smile and a dazed look coming onto his face as he continued to imagine Yu Chen as his wife.
He did not notice that Yu Chen was looking at him when she had turned to check on the soup.
He came back to reality when Chen said, "I don't need anymore help. It's almost done."
Si Xia snapped back and looked at the dazzling smile on Chen's face. Her mood would always instantly pick up whenever she was cooking.
Xia went into the kitchen and said, "Then let me take the plates out."
Yu Chen: "What's that best doing?"
Si Xia: "I put on a show for him."
Yu Chen: "Pfft, is he a child or what?"
Si Xia smiled as he began to take the different dishes and place them on the table.
While they were both setting the table, Mo Kio said, "Hey, why do I feel like you guys are a married couple and I'm the single friend."
Si Xia: "Wrong. We're the married couple and you're the desperate friend who never leaves us alone and acts like a child."
Yu Chen: "..."
Mo Kio: "....."
Si Xia: "You will also get really jealous when we have real children."
Yu Chen: "....."
Mo Kio: " Hey Chen, control your husband!!"
Yu Chen: "....." *internally* "Why am I friends with these people?"
She coughed and said, "Cough...if you want to eat here....cough....stop talking."
That shut the two up. They could really sacrifice anything for Chen's cooking. After dinner, the two boys stood up to leave.
When Chen went to the door to say goodbye, Kio said, "That was gooood. Chen, I'm gonna miss your food when you go to London.
Yu Chen knew what was coming, so she said, "Actually.....my sister cooks better than me. Marry her, and you'll get great food everyday."
This had an effect even Chen had not anticipated. Mo Kio awkwardly scratched his head and ran down, muttering something about need to get home early.
Chen and Xia laughed and then Chen said, "You should also go down. He might leave you here."
Si Xia held up a bunch of keys, "No he won't."
Yu Chen: "You...oh god hahaha. That serves him right."
Si Xia: "So you're going home tomorrow."
Yu Chen: "Yeah, I want to meet my parents and Mian before I leave for God knows how long."
Si Xia: "So I guess I will see you day after tomorrow when you return."
Yu Chen: "Yeah, see you soon."
Suddenly, Mo Kio's voice came from downstairs, "Si Xia, get your ass down here now!!!!!"
Yu Chen laughed as they said goodbye to each other.
