A Mysterious Man

"Don't worry about that. Macie is here. If you miss her, come to see her."

Troy is shocked by her understatement for a moment, and then he quickly regains his senses. "Sunny, are you kidding me? You two should come to see me." Sunny says with certainty, "But we are far away from you."

... Troy doesn't how to respond.

After a while, he stammers, "Can I pick Macie up for the weekend?"

Hearing his words, Sunny knows what kind of bad idea he is thinking, but Sunny did not think too much and immediately agreed.

"OK, I'll send her over."

After the two of them have reached an agreement, Sunny hangs up happily.

"Macie, can you bathe yourself?"

Macie is trying her best to reach her back. When she hears the question from Sunny, she hurriedly asks for help, "Mom, I can't wash my back!"

...

Sunny has to put down the phone and do her mother's duty to help her daughter take a bath.

"OK, I'll help you, and then you can go to bed."

"Dad, I want to hear your story."

Since Macie wants to be a little girl, she has to pick up what she has lost first, the missing father's love.

"OK! I'm coming!"

Kevin happily takes a story book and walks into Macie's bedroom. "From a long time ago..."

It is another beautiful night.

However, on this beautiful night, Sunny and Kevin have a difference of opinion.

Because of their discussion of prostitutes.

Sunny holds that every profession is worthy of respect, and she doesn't have the heart to see anyone suffer.

Kevin is extremely disdainful of prostitutes. For so many years, he has already seen too many women from all walks of life who want to sleep with him. Sunny asks, "A lot of people? How do they seduce you?"

Kevin says, "There are quite a lot people with various tricks. Do you want to know?"

Sunny is green with envy. She fiercely steps on Kevin, and then runs to the kitchen to sulk.

Kevin doesn't understand why Sunny stepped on him, and his confused eyes reveal a sense of sadness.

"Honey, are you angry for what I said?"

Sunny is brewing health tea and ignores him when she hears his voice.

Seeing that she is still in the mood to make tea, Kevin thinks she doesn't seem to be angry, so he raises his voice and says, "Honey, I'm going to take a shower." "Whatever you say!"

Sunny tries to hold back her anger but fails. When she turns around, she doesn't see Kevin. That fellow is happily humming in the new bathroom!

Sunny is too angry to say anything. She can only drink the cup of tea by herself and then go straight to bed.

She turns off the lights!

After taking a shower, Kevin opens the bedroom door and is first surprised by the darkness. He can only feel his way to the bedside.

Sunny hears that Kevin has arrived at the bedside. In order to avoid what she does not want to happen next, she closes her eyes and pretends to be asleep.

Kevin listens to her unusual breathing sound and thinks that Sunny has already fallen asleep.

Therefore, he does not turn on the light. He touches Sunny's face and kisses her lightly, "Good night, honey."

When Sunny, who is pretending to be asleep, feels this kiss, she suddenly stops breathing and becomes softhearted. Then, she closes her eyes and falls asleep. When she wakes up, the sky outside is bright.

Kevin is facing her. He puts one hand on her waist and the other under her neck as a pillow.

With her back to the light, Sunny sees that Kevin's face is so handsome. She couldn't help but do the following things.

She first kisses him on the forehead and then silently counts his eyelashes.

As she counts, she seems to have seen Kevin's eyelashes tremble. Sunny thinks that he is going to wake up, so she hurriedly closes her eyes.

Kevin quietly opens one of his eyes. Seeing that she is pretending to be asleep, he smiles and closes his eyes again.

After waiting for a long time, Sunny doesn't see Kevin make any move, so she opens her eyes boldly. Seeing that Kevin is still sleeping peacefully, she breathes a sigh of relief. Then, she carefully picks up Kevin's hand and places it on his waist.

After that, Sunny holds her breath until she goes out of the bedroom and walks barefoot on the living room mat.

"I'm so tired..." She lets out a long breath and comes into the kitchen to see what she can make for the big and small ones who are still sleeping peacefully.

"We're going to move today, so we need more nutrition..."

She is talking to herself freely, completely unaware of the person slowly approaching from behind.

Until he hugs Sunny.

"God!"

Sunny cries out in shock, only to find that it is Kevin, so she heaves a sigh of relief.

"You scared me!"

Her tone is filled with dissatisfaction.

Kevin is begging for mercy, "Honey, I didn't see you when I woke up, so I came out to find you."

Sunny realizes that she has just come out, so she doubts Kevin's words, "Did I wake you? When did you wake up?"

"Just..." Kevin smiles wickedly, "When you stole a kiss from me..."

Sunny hasn't reacted until she hears that. She is so angry that she almost smashes the egg out of her hand.

"You woke up so early, yet you pretended to be asleep shamelessly!"

Kevin smiles and accepts all the accusations. Then, a childish voice comes from behind him, "Mom and Dad..."

Hearing Macie's voice, Sunny gives Kevin a warning stare, then waves her pot shovel and says to Macie, "Darling, why did you wake up so early?"

Macie rubs her eyes that aren't completely opened, "I heard your voice, so I got up."

...

"Do you want to go to bed for a while longer? I'll call you when breakfast is ready."

Before Macie can say anything, Kevin steps forward and says, "Let's go. Dad will sleep with you for a while longer."

...

Sunny helplessly glances at Kevin, sighs, and then turns to make breakfast.

However, she feels that there is someone behind her. She turns around and sees that Kevin is still standing there.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Sunny angrily waves the turner in her hand with the other hand on her hip, looking like an old hen protecting her food. Kevin laughs out loud because of his strange idea.

Sunny stares at him and does not understand why Kevin is laughing.

"Honey, I love you. Go to sleep with Macie for a while longer. I'll do it."

Hearing this, Sunny rubs her eyes and can't believe what he has said.

"Come on, go to sleep. I'll cook."

Sunny goes to Macie's room and covers herself with quilt, "Baby, let's sleep."

Thus, Macie hugs her mother and closes her eyes, falling asleep.

What wakes Sunny up again is a burnt smell that comes from somewhere. She suddenly wakes up from her dream and shouts, "Kevin, where are you?"

Kevin, who is busy in the kitchen, hears her voice and smiles bitterly. He does not expect Sunny to wake up so quickly.

Sunny sits on the bed for a while, then looks at Macie, who is still asleep, and her heart is filled with love. She leans over and kisses her forehead before getting up and leaving. Walking into the kitchen, she smells something indescribable.

Sunny wrinkles her nose, opens the window and the range hood, and then asks, "Kevin, what are you doing!"

Kevin covered his nose as if he didn't know what had happened.

Sunny has to go to check what Kevin is doing. She is about to be enraged to death when she sees the scene.

The newly bought pressure cooker that has not been used much before is burnt by Kevin. "Kevin..."

Sunny looks at the pressure cooker and feels helpless.

In the end, it is Kevin himself who picks up the cooker trembling and throws it into the trash can.

"Honey, I'll buy you another one."

Sunny sighs in her heart, and then pushes Kevin away, "I'll do it. I'm not sleepy."

Kevin wants to say something, but seeing that Sunny doesn't have time to look back at him, his expression darkens. "Wife, I'll go wash myself up first."

Sunny turns to look at Kevin, who has made his face dirty, and nods.

Then she frowns and looks at the things in front of her, pondering how to make up for the charred breakfast.

After a lot of hard work, Sunny looks at the breakfast that she has made as if she has a magic trick. She heaves a sigh of relief and wipes the sweat on her forehead.

"Kevin, wake Macie up. Breakfast is ready."

Kevin, who is nervous in the bathroom, answers after hearing this. Only then does he feel relieved.

During breakfast, Kevin clenches his fists and says, "Honey, I'll buy a recipe in the afternoon. From now on, I'll cook all the food for you."

Hearing this, Sunny raises an eyebrow and asks doubtfully, "If you cook, when will the meal be ready?"

Kevin is so angry that he only eats a few mouthfuls of food and puts down his chopsticks. Then he calls someone, "Hogan, it's me. I'll come to the company in a few days. Deal with the business for me. What am I going to do? I'm going to cook!"☐☐☐☐☐☐
