"Xiao Mey, have some soy milk."
"No. First, eat this fruit salad. I especially added a lot of berries which will provide Vitamin C and fiber. Also, look I added dates for iron. It’s all healthy for the baby and you."
"Su, soy milk is also good for the baby. It has Vitamin A, Vitamin B-12, potassium, calcium and whatnot. I won’t give anything unhealthy to my girl as well. Also, milk is essential during pregnancy."
"Bingbing, I know it’s healthy but she can’t drink milk before the salad."
"And why not?"
This argument had been going on for a long time now while Xu Mey was being pushed and pulled between two over-protective mothers. On one side was her mother-in-law, He Susu and on the other side was the woman who gave her all the love a mother could, Fan Bingbing. Xu Mey was stuck between these ladies who had been shoving food in her for a week now.
Xu Mey didn’t know that eating healthy could be this tiring and boring. She was really tired of their health advice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut she couldn’t even say no since these women were doing their best to take care of her. Looking at them she finally knew what a mother was like. Why would she still be sad about a mother who left her alone? She had a pair of loving and caring mothers who doted on her beyond belief. Exactly why did she never realize it before?
Shaking her head, Xu Mey decided to apply a new trick. "Yuck!" She scrunched up her face and pretended to barf.
"Xiao Mey, what’s wrong?" Both ladies finally lost interest in their argument and turned to Xu Mey.
"I’m feeling nauseous. The aroma of these things is making me sick."
Fan Bingbing and He Susu immediately took their food containers and ran out of the room. Xu Mey felt guilty for doing this but their reaction was priceless.
"Xiao Mey, tell us what do you want?"
Xu Mey pretended to think for a moment before saying, "Something spicy... Or sour... How about some noodle soup? Or Scallion pancakes?"
Both Fan Bingbing and He Susu looked reluctant. "Xiao Mey, oily food is not very healthy. Also, spices might not suit your taste as well."
"I heard soybean is very healthy. How about Korean style soybean noodles?" Xu Mey slowly altered their thoughts towards her own wishes.
"That can work. Okay. We’ll be right back."
"Oh, and mother don’t forget to bring a milkshake. I want that as well." Both Fan Bingbing and He Susu halted in their steps. Looking at their baffled looks, Xu Mey rolled her eyes at them and added, "Ma, why are you looking at me like that? You better make the soybean noodles yourself." She was talking to Fan Bingbing and addressed her the same way as Wu Wang did. It made a strange feeling to engulf Fan Bingbing’s heart.
"And mother, I forgot to tell you. I want a strawberry milkshake." He Susu nodded in a daze but didn’t move.
"Why aren’t you both leaving? I’m really hungry." That made both of them startle awake from the daze. Both Fan Bingbing and He Susu hugged Xu Mey with tears in their eyes. Xu Mey knew why they were reacting like this and she had no comment about this. She made a lot of effort to call them mother before it never felt right. At least not until now when she knew that she was long over that mother who left.
Finally, Xu Mey was left alone in the room. She was dreading the time, she would leave for home. Here only two were always coaxing her to eat but at home... Everyone will do it. Urgh!
Anyhow, she was indeed tired of the hospital now. She never liked hospitals but now she had to stay here for observation. How unfair! But in reality, she was only staying to accompany Jie otherwise she would have run a long time ago.
She couldn’t even complain since no one would not listen at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I see you have everyone dancing at your fingertips." Looking at Jie walking towards her with the help of crutches, she smiled.
"What else can I do? The way they are feeding me, I’ll soon look like a balloon." Xu Mey grumbled.
"Haha... Is it that bad? You’ll look cute." Jie chuckled and pretended as he could really see her as a cute balloon.
"Ah-Jie, I don’t want to be a balloon."
"Why not?"
Xu Mey stepped down from the bed and came before him. She wrapped her arms around him and made him do the same. Tilting her head, she looked into his eyes and said, "If I became a balloon, I won’t fit in here. I don’t like the idea of that."
"I think baby, you’ll still fit in my arms," Jie said with a beautiful smile.
Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him and said, "You can because you have long arms. But mine hardly can wrap around your waist." Looking at her aggrieved face, Jie tapped her nose.
"Don’t worry. So what if we can’t fit in each other’s arms anymore. My heart is big enough to fit all of you." His indulgent gaze made Xu Mey hide her face in his chest.
It was indeed a blessing to find a man who could deal with all her mood swings. Even though she was too clingy these days, he still never mind. He was always patiently dealing with her tantrums as well. What had she done in her previous life to deserve a man like him? Who cares?
He was hers and that’s all that mattered.
