Daisy turned to Andrew Harris and said lovingly, “Dad, I’m just playing with my sister!”
Rosemary smiled at Andrew Harris and tacitly replied, “Yes, Dad, I’m going back to my room to rest.”
“Rosemary!” Andrew Harris stopped Rosemary. He walked up and said, “You’re going to The Grant family tomorrow. Go buy some clothes. All this time you can buy things as much as you like, it’s your dowry!”
“No, dad. We’re having a tough time financially. I don’t need anything!”
“That’s what you deserve! And…” Andrew Harris was about to say something, but he stopped himself and looked at Rosemary with a loving look on his face.
Rosemary nodded and said softly, “Well, I’ll go out and see what I can buy and come back later!”
Andrew Harris said “Okay”, looked at Rosemary’s back, sighed, and went upstairs helplessly.
Beep…
Rosemary walked out the door. It might be hard for her to hang out with her best friends, as she was about to marry into The Grant family and take care of her vegetative husband.
The call was soon picked up by a cheerful voice.
“Rosemary, why are you calling me today? How rare is that?” Carina quipped.
Carina was Rosemary’s best friend in junior and high school. The two of them are on good terms. Rosemary went to art school after college, and Carina went to fashion design.
Hearing her teasing tone, Rosemary felt a surge of warmth. Since her mother died, her father and Carina were the only people in the world she felt warm to.
Rosemary decided not to think about anything today. She just wanted to have a crazy day with her friend.
“Come on. I’m really busy these days. Well, I called you right after I got out of school. Isn’t that enough?”
Rosemary chuckled into the phone.
Carina was so happy to hear Rosemary say that.
“One o’clock, see you at the usual place!”
“Okay!”
Rosemary hung up the phone, feeling a little relieved.
