Did I have to go back?
I was a little hesitant. I was a little addicted to the simplicity and beauty of my life now.
I even went to inquire about the work in the small town the other day.
Although the income of ordinary waiters here was only 3000 local currency, they could live a very good
life because of the low price here.
At that moment I even wanted to stay here.
If only I could stay here forever.
When Ming and I went back, a car came to us with a roaring engine.
When it was about to hit us, it began to brake hard!
The screeching sound of brakes reverberated in the quiet streets of the town.
I looked at the car and was nervous.
Then I saw a man in a black windbreaker get out of the car.
Sean.
I almost didn’t recognize him.
Sean in front of me had completely changed. He lost a lot of weight and his black windbreaker seemed
a little loose. When he saw Ming and me, he satirized, “uncle, you and my honey live here. It’s not easy
for me to find you.”
I looked at Sean. His black eyes were frightfully cold and he was furious.
I felt fear!
Ming stood in front of me to protect me. “Sean, I wanted to go back to you tomorrow. Now that you are
here, let’s...”
“Shut up! Who the fuck wants to talk to you! What qualifications do you have to speak to me!”
Sean rudely interrupted Ming. He came forward and carried me on his shoulder!
“Ah!” I was shocked. “Sean, put me down!”
“Don’t dream.” Sean shoved me into his car and looked back at Ming. He said, “uncle, I’ll go back and
settle with you.”
With that, he closed the door.
The driver drove.
“Where do you live?”
“What?”
I was stunned.
“Where do you live!” Sean looked at me like a bloodthirsty beast.
“I...” I didn’t know what he was going to do and didn’t dare to tell him where I lived.
Sean’s mood now even made me think that when we got to where I live, he would burn that house right
away.
He paused and sneered, “do you live together?”
“No.” I knew Sean misunderstood, “I live separately from Ming.”
“Ming? I said he is my uncle. Why do you call him Ming? You should call him uncle like me! Do you
understand?”
As Sean spoke, he grabbed my wrist.
We didn’t see each other for two weeks, but he became grumpy and bloodthirsty.
I had been in jail. I was most afraid of such people.
There were too many of them in prison. They threatened me and forced me, but I didn’t know how to
fight!
“Where do you live?” Sean looked at me. “If you don’t say it, I’ll burn one house at a time until it
reaches your house.”
“You’re crazy!”
“Yeah, I’m crazy. I’m driven crazy by you!” Sean looked at me with a terrible look.
I was afraid. I lost.
I told Sean where I lived.
Sean pulled me out of the car. He pushed the door directly and went in.
Because of the good security in this town, we didn’t lock the door at all.
Sean looked around and seemed to find that I was the only one living here. His face seemed to soften
a lot. His voice weakened slightly. “Where is your passport and ID card? Take me to get it.”
“Ah?”
“Take it! Come with me!”
Sean said angrily.
I dared not to annoy him. I could only tell him they were in the drawer on the second floor. Sean
dragged me upstairs. He took them and dragged me downstairs.
During the whole process, he was like a furious child and I was a puppet with no self-control ability in
his hands.
Sean took them and took me to the car.
The car soon drove out of the town.
About two hours later, the car arrived in a big city. I knew here. This was the place where I got off the
plane before. In other words, were we going back?
No, I didn’t want to go back with Sean!
I could feel that if I went back, I would be locked up by him and couldn’t go out any more!
“Sean, listen to me. Nothing happened to me and your uncle. We just live next door. We just...”
“You just shop, eat and watch the sunrise and sunset together every day, don’t you?”
Sean interrupted and asked me.
I looked at him and thought for a moment.
I nodded.
Sean looked at me like crazy. He pressed me against the back of the car chair. His face was very close
to me. “If I tell you that I am jealous because of this, will you believe it?”
I was stunned.
Sean held me and wanted to take off my mask.
But although I was used to facing Ming, I didn’t have the courage to face Sean.
I tried to protect my mask. Sean looked at me and sneered, “you dare to face him. Why don’t you dare
to face me? Don’t you trust me?”
“I...”
I could face Ming.
But I couldn’t face Sean!
I didn’t want him to see my face. I didn’t want him to dislike me!
“Take it away.”
“No.”
I shook my head desperately. I couldn’t do that!
“Three.”
He began to count down. I knew what he meant.
I begged him, “No. Can you not look at it?”
“Two.”
“Please.”
“One!”
With that, he rudely took my mask away.
My ugly face was exposed to him.
This moment I was more painful than naked!
When he saw my face, he seemed stunned but he soon calmed down. He said lightly, “it doesn’t
matter. You will recover.” With that, he added, “it doesn’t matter if you can’t recover. You are my girl. No
one dares to dislike you.”
“But I dislike myself! I mind it! I don’t want to be around you like this!”
I looked at Sean and finally figured out what I cared about.
Sean couldn’t be around an ugly woman like me.
No way!
When Sean saw me like this, he seemed to be in a better mood and put his arms around me. “I don’t
mind. I’ll live with you all my life. Do you understand? You can have a facelift. You can be anything as
long as it’s you.”
Sean’s words were like antidotes.
My heart became warm somehow.
All my fears disappeared because of his simple words.
