If Rosie couldn't come up with an excuse, she had to follow Jessica.
But she was a bit reluctant to go.
Although Rosie was smart for her age, she was still a kid. Jessica was an adult, so how couldn't she
see through what a kid was thinking?
Jessica observed Rosie while taking a few steps forward. She found that Rosie had a pretty serious
look, frowning, with her lips pressing tight into a thin line.
Upon her arrival, Rosie was a bit anxious about it, nervously looking all around.
"Rosie," Jessica called out to her.
"Yes?" Rosie raised her head, looking a little jumpy.
"What's wrong? Why didn't you get in this bookstore?" Jessica asked in a gentle voice. She squatted
down and looked Rosie in the eyes.
Rosie bit her lips and her hands clasped firmly together, "That's the place ... where you got injured last
time, so I don't want to go there again."
She said in a low voice which sounded worried and uneasy, but she had given an explicit message.
Jessica was shocked, and then she said, "It doesn't matter. Look, I'm good now. It was just an accident.
When you tumble in the yard, it's also an accident, but you still play in the yard every day, right?"
Rosie nodded, but then she shook her head, "That's different."
"Nothing different," Jessica said.
Rosie fell in silence. She looked a little down to the ground. Poor little girl!
That softened Jessica's heart. She said, "Alright, forget it. Let's go get some food."
It seemed that Rosie was badly affected by Jessica's injury last time in the bookstore.
Rosie was five years old, but she had been able to form her own memories. She knew a lot of things.
Was it possible for Jessica that she could get something useful from Rosie?
But Jessica couldn't do that and bit her tongue in the end.
...
After dinner, Jessica invited Rosie to her house.
Rosie had become close to her, so she agreed.
When Molly returned home at night, she shrieked loudly after seeing Rosie on the sofa.
She screamed.
Rosie covered her ears. When Molly calmed down a bit, she acted like an elder and said, "Auntie Molly,
relax."
"Rosie, are you going to stay here tonight?" Molly trotted to Rosie, and she fixed her eyes at Molly.
Rosie dumbly moved to the side and said, "Yes."
"Then..."
Just as Molly spoke, Rosie interrupted her, "I'm sleeping with Auntie Jessica."
"Then..."
"Quickly go to take a bath."
Jessica was finding a small blanket for Rosie in a room. When she came out, she heard the
conversation between them.
"Take a shower now. You can play with Rosie when you're done." Jessica knew that Molly also liked
Rosie, so she urged Molly to take a bath.
Jessica sat in front of Rosie and did jigsaw puzzles with her.
"Do you have a boyfriend, Auntie Jessica?" Molly suddenly raised her head and asked.
Jessica thought for a moment. Although Christopher and Molly hadn't made it clear yet, Jessica knew
as sure as hell that she was destined to be with Christopher because of her typical silliness.
So, she answered, "Yes, I guess so."
Rosie sighed, and said, "That is to say, only one person in this room is still
single."
