Frances comes back very late recently. I think he is busy looking for Earl.
Until that afternoon, I receive a MMS.
In the photo, there is a man and a woman.
The photo was taken in a hospital. The man is Frances. He is supporting a woman and carefully walking forward.
That woman has a big belly. I feel that she looks familiar, but I can't remember where I saw her.
I just feel that this scene is somewhat familiar.
I am a little uneasy.
I think no one can calm down when she sees her beloved man being so intimate with another woman, who is pregnant.
There are so many misunderstandings between me and Frances. I don't want to make up stories in my head anymore, so I directly call the number.
Someone answers the phone quickly. It is a woman speaking.
"Who is speaking? Why did you send me this photo? Don't think that I would misunderstand Frances because of such a photo. I trust he, and I won't think nonsense."
I get the drop on her and make my position clear to the woman on the other end of the phone.
The woman chuckled, and her elegant and gentle voice comes from over there.
"Well, you're making this call. It means that you've started to think nonsense, doesn't it?"
The woman unceremoniously exposes my thoughts. I am glad that I am not face to face with her right now. At the very least, she can't see my panicky looking.
I clear my throat and say in a serious voice, "I'm not panicking. I just want to tell you that whatever you want to do will be useless. Instead of plotting behind my back, just tell me what you want to do."
"It's not suitable to talk about it on the phone. Come out and we'll talk about it."
The woman tells me an address and hangs up.
She doesn't wait for my answerer. She probably thinks that I'll go.
I am going to meet her.
I don't like to be kept in the dark. If the truth is right in front of me and there is no way to know, it would be too uncomfortable for me.
