Ice and Fire
Chapter 87 Go To The Park Together
In the morning, with the sunlight filling into the room, Cherry opened her eyes sleepily and found Joe Shen's legs on her waist, his body sprawled on the other side of the bed.
Cherry looked at the clock on the wall. It was 10 o'clock!
Cherry shouted in a hurry, "Joe Shen, wake up, right now!"
Joe Shen, deep in his sleep, heard someone calling his name. He could not see who it was but his guess was on mommy.
With his eyes still shut, Joe Shen spoke with annoyance, "Shhhhh! I need to sleep a little longer. Don't disturb my beautiful dream, please. There's a beautiful girl in my dream."
Cherry looked at her son angrily, "Joe Shen, your computer is missing!"
As soon as Cherry said it, she saw Joe Shen opening his eyes immediately.
"Where is my computer? Who has taken my computer? Help me find it back, please!" Joe Shen sprang out of bed on his feet.
His concern for his computer angered Cherry even more. She asked in a fit of anger, "Joe, is your computer more important to you than your mother?"
It then occurred to Joe that his mommy was lying to him. He snuggled into bed, closed his eyes and tried to negotiate sleeping again. Lying on his comfortable bed, he said sleepily, "Mommy, you are the greatest mommy in the world."
"If you mean that, get up right now." Cherry saw that her son wanted to sleep again and her anger began boiling again.
Joe Shen couldn't tolerate his mother's noise any more. He grudgingly allowed himself to be dragged by Cherry into the washroom to wash his face.
When Cherry, taking Joe's hand, brought him downstairs, she was welcomed by the aroma of a delicious breakfast.
"Wow! Uncle does know how to cook!" Joe Shen shouted happily. Although he had been forced to get up so early in the morning, it was all worth it to enjoy the yummy breakfast. For this, he could forgive his mother for her bossiness.
"Your uncle has always been good at cooking, " said Cherry, walking Joe Shen into the kitchen.
