Valda should put on her clothes.
However, in this world, there is always a saying that goes “plans cannot keep up with changes.”
The next morning, Valda heard her phone ringing… but her heavy eyelids were reluctant to open, so she groggily reached out her hand to feel for her phone on the bedside table, wanting to turn off the ringing.
Just as her phone rang, another hand, faster than hers, pressed the button.
The ringing has stopped.
Brian’s gentle voice sounded in her ear, “Today is Sunday, you don’t have to go to the studio, you can sleep a little longer.”
“……Oh.” She mumbled in agreement, as if to say, “Yes, it’s Sunday today, and I can sleep in.”
So Valda kept her eyes closed and said, “Then… can I sleep a little longer? When you wake me up, can you give me a good morning kiss? That way, when I open my eyes, I’ll see you. If this were in a comic book, there would be roses all around your face, and maybe some petals and stars to set the mood.”
At that moment, a burst of laughter sounded, followed by a woman’s voice saying, “I didn’t expect this child to be so funny.
How come I didn’t notice it last time?”
Valda suddenly shuddered and opened her eyes, which were previously closed. She sat up abruptly from the bed and, upon seeing what was in front of her, wished she hadn’t woken up yet.
At the moment, the old Mr. Hart and the old Mrs. Hart are standing in front of the bed, looking at her, while Brian is also on the bed with her.
So, she and Brian were caught in bed by his parents!
Valda couldn’t help but let out a mournful cry in her heart. Okay, ever since the first night she moved in here and slept on the same bed with Brian, they have been sharing the same bed every night.
Although she and Brian didn’t do anything and just chatted under the covers, the problem is…if she says that, will his parents believe it?
who take the initiative. Valda, our Brian has a bit of a cold personality and may not be very proactive in dealing with things. If you take the initiative, it will complement him nicely.”
Valda looked embarrassed and didn’t know how to respond for a moment.
Mr. Hart addressed Mrs. Hart, “You see, your words might easily scare the child.” Then, Mr. Hart turned to Valda and said, “Miss Theller, if you want to sleep, go ahead and sleep. We will be leaving soon, and it won’t disturb your rest.”
“Um, Uncle, just call me Valda. I’m… I’m not sleepy now, so I don’t want to sleep,” Valda quickly said. Even if she was extremely sleepy before, all drowsiness had been scared away by now.
“Oh, I see. Well, why don’t you tidy up and come down to the living room, and we can talk,” said Mr.
Hart.
“Okay, okay. You guys go down first, we’ll come in a bit,” replied
Valda.
Mr. and Mrs. Hart, who are elderly, left the bedroom. Valda suddenly deflated like a balloon and buried her entire face in the covers.
Wow, did she just embarrass herself big time!
“What’s wrong?” Brian’s voice sounded.
She trembled and suddenly looked up at him, asking, “When did
“It’s been a while.” Brian replied.
“How long is a while?”
“About half an hour before you woke up.” Brian estimated.
..” Valda suddenly felt speechless. So she had slept for another half an hour after his parents came in?!
“Why didn’t you wake me up?” She asked. If her phone alarm hadn’t gone off, would she have had to continue sleeping?
“You seemed to be sleeping well, and besides, it wasn’t a big deal that they came in.” He said in a casual tone, as if it was just an ordinary matter.
“Even if I’m sleeping well, you should still wake me up!” Valda wailed. “During that half an hour, I didn’t do anything strange or say anything weird in my sleep, did I?”
“No, you slept well.” He said with a hint of a smile on his lips.
At the moment his parents walked into the room, he woke up and almost instinctively put his index finger to his lips, making a gesture for them to be quiet, not wanting them to wake her up.
Next, he tried to keep his voice down during the conversation with his parents.
His mother teased him, “You spoil her so much? It’s already morning and you still don’t want to wake her up. When will you spoil me, the mother?”
“You are naturally spoiled by father,” he replied.
Then his parents looked at him in surprise.
He understood what they were surprised about. In the past, he probably wouldn’t have even responded to his mother’s words, at most just giving her a glance.
It seemed that spending time with Valda had made him talk more.
So, for the first time in his life, with his girlfriend lying next to him, he sat on the bed and chatted with his parents for half an hour until her phone alarm went off and she woke up.
“Hey, what should I say when I meet your parents later?” Valda worriedly asked.
for you,” Brian said, patting her head. Because she had just woken. up, her hair was still down and she looked like a doll. “Okay, you go wash up first.”
His words seemed to remind her, and she quickly got out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
By the way, we can’t let them wait for too long. Otherwise, their impression of her might become even worse.
After finishing her morning routine, Valda changed into a fresh white dress, hoping to make a good impression on the old Mr. and Mrs. Hart. However, when she saw Brian, he was also wearing a white shirt.
It looks like they are wearing matching outfits, almost like couple’s clothing.
“Let’s go. I’ve had the servant prepare breakfast. We’ll go downstairs and have breakfast first.” Brian said.
“So, what about your parents…”
“It’s okay, they won’t be idle naturally,” he said.
So, while they were having breakfast, the old Mr. Hart and the old
Mrs. Hart sat in the living room, looking at Valda’s comic books.
Valda whispered to Brian, “How did you get my comic here?”
“Of course I bought them. I wanted to learn more about you, so I bought all the comics you’ve drawn over the years,” replied Brian.
“But your parents, they are currently looking at… my comics, which are all love stories,” she said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
If she draws cartoons for children or military and historical themes, she feels more comfortable.
Unfortunately, it’s a romantic girl’s comic…
Valda is feeling quite battered now, one wave after another, and it seems like each wave is stronger than the last.
Valda quickly finished breakfast and hurriedly pulled Brian to the living room.
“Hello Uncle and Aunt.”
“Have you eaten well?” asked Mrs. Hart, the elderly woman.
“Mmm, I’m done eating,” she replied.
“Please have a seat first, we can chat slowly while sitting,” said
Mrs. Hart with a smiling face.
After Valda and Brian sat down, the elderly Mrs. Hart turned to
Valda and said, “You draw comics quite well. I personally admire girls who have a special skill. As the saying goes, if you have a skill, you won’t have to worry about anything.”
“Not at all, not at all. I just used to enjoy drawing before, and now I happen to be able to make a career out of it,” said Valda.
“Pretty good,” said Mrs. Hart, but then she changed the subject. “Is it true what Brian said, that you and he are back together now?”
Valda tensed up, knowing that the crucial point had arrived. “It’s true.”
“Because he took a stab for you?”
“No, it’s because I love him,” Valda said seriously.
It’s strange to say, but normally if she said this in front of others, she might feel embarrassed. But at this moment, she is just being honest and saying everything clearly.
“Will you break up again in the future?” asked Mrs. Hart again..
Brian’s body stiffened imperceptibly, and a hint of unease flickered in his eyes, as if he was afraid of her answer, which might be something he didn’t want to hear
“Do you have any plans to marry my son?” asked Mrs. Hart.
Valda almost choked on her own saliva, this question… It’s jumping too quickly, isn’t it?
“You’re not just planning to play around, are you?” The old Mrs.
Hart furrowed her brow as she looked at Valda, who didn’t answer right away.
“No, no, I… of course, I have plans to get married,” Valda quickly clarified.
Mrs. Hart’s brow relaxed, “When?”
“…” This…this is too direct. They have only met twice, including the time at the hospital. Is it normal for parents to ask such a question after meeting only twice?
“Mum, Valda and I have just started again. Don’t you think it’s too early to ask that?” Brian helped Valda out.
“Good morning? I feel like it’s already too late. Look at all my sisters around me, who doesn’t have grandchildren? And me…forget about grandchildren, I haven’t even seen the shadow of a daughter-in-law!” grumbled Mrs.
Hart.
Mr. Hart quickly comforted his wife while Brian said, “If Valda and I get married one day, it won’t be for the sake of having children or continuing the family line. We’ll only do it because she’s the person I want to marry, and I’m the person she wants to marry.”
“You–” Mrs. Hart suddenly found herself speechless.
Valda suddenly felt touched in her heart. She understood that Brian’s words were meant to not put any pressure on her.
“Okay, then tomorrow night, let’s have dinner together. It’ll be at formal meeting!” said Mrs. Hart. “That shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Brian looked at Valda and asked, “Are you free tomorrow night?”
