Theo's expression darkened at once as he grabbed my hand and bit down on my fingers hard. "Dream on!”
This darn man!
I did not want to entertain him further and looked out of the window. "Don't talk to me. You annoy the hell outta me."
Theo chuckled. "Why are you acting like a child?"
I held back the urge to curse him and raised both of m y hands to cover my ears.
After two minutes, I put down my hands and was just about to close my eyes to have a rest when Theo spoke again, "Are you really not going to go to the hospital?”
I grew a little irritated that even my tone came off harsh. "You're really annoying. Why are you still asking when I already told you that I'm not going?”
Theo pursed his lips and did not say anything else.
The car drove into the residential area and came to a stop downstairs of the building. Theo got out first, then went around to my side to open the door.
When I saw him bend forward, extending both hands toward me, I frowned. "What are you doing?"
Theo smiled. "I'll carry you upstairs.”
I rolled my eyes. "I'm an adult now. Don't you feel embarrassed carrying me upstairs?"
"What's so embarrassing about a husband carrying his wife upstairs?” Theo said with righteous indignation.
I did not want to waste my breath talking nonsense with him, so I pushed him away and got out of the car myself.
Jerome had already packed up Munchkin's things, so after we went in, he pointed at the bags placed on the floor. "We bought all the best things last time so there’s no need to buy new items.”
