When I saw that everything she picked was pink, I could not help but chuckle bitterly. “Why is everything so pink? What if my baby is a boy?”
While she looked at the cots, she replied, “It doesn’t matter. Regardless of whether your baby is a boy or a girl, they’ll still need these items. If your son really doesn’t like them, we can buy them again after he’s born.”
She was not wrong.
Slowly, the things in the trolley piled up. As I would start to gain weight due to my pregnancy and swell up, she even bought some skincare products for me.
Watching as she placed the items in the trolley, I could not help but laugh. “Macy, you, as the godmother, are paying even more attention than me!”
She chuckled. Suddenly, her eyes reddened as she hugged me. “Letty, leave Ashton! I can take good care of you.”
I did not know why she suddenly uttered those words. Stunned momentarily, I patted her shoulders and assured her, “Why are you being so emotional all of a sudden? I will leave Ashton sooner or later. But I’d like to leave proudly, instead of sneaking away like a thief.”
She nodded and replied hoarsely, “It’s okay. I’ll wait for you. I’ve already found a suitable place in Q City, where the property prices are lower. After adding up our savings, we can buy a small villa there. Both of us and your child can stay there.”
There was something different about this girl. For a moment, I could not tell how exactly she had changed. All I could tell was that she was hiding something and seemed sadder than before.
Sighing softly, I chuckled. “It’s fine. I’m not in such a dire state now. We have a long journey ahead of us!”
As it was getting late, we directly headed to Glenwood Apartments and placed the baby products there. It was more convenient to do so.
