Sweet Sorrow

Who is it?

Holding the phone, Nicole thought.

"Sister, who are you talking to?" Jim lighted the incense from the censer and walked to Nicole.

Shaking her head, Nicole answered, "No one."

"Consuela?" Jim guessed.

"What?" Reminded by her brother, Nicole suddenly remembered that she also needed to call Consuela to say hello. After all, Consuela had lived a lonely life in another city.

Thinking of this, Nicole dialed Consuela's number. Different from Jacob, Consuela answered the phone soon.

"Nicole! Happy new year! " Consuela said excitedly.

Affected by the happiness of Consuela, Nicole greeted her happily, "Happy new year, Consuela." Hearing this, Jim also came close to Nicole and shouted at the phone, "Happy new year, Consuela!"

"Good, good, Jim, good boy. Nicole, please give Jima "Lucky money" for me."

"He already has got one from me." Smiling, Nicole pushed Jim away and asked in a low voice about Consuela's physical condition and the condition of her unborn baby.

Perhaps it was because of the happy new year, Consuela answered the questions one by one, without showing the slightest trace of displeasure and depression. But as Nicole expected, Consuela was alone during the Spring Festival.

Worried that she might feel lonely, Nicole didn't plan to hang up. She held her phone and chatted with Consuela casually.

The two had been chatting for more than an hour. Hearing Consuela started to yawn, Nicole said, "Consuela, go to bed now. Take care of yourself."

"Okay, I'll go to sleep now. I've been very sleepy recently." After saying goodbye to Nicole, Consuela hung up the phone.

"Sister, are you sleepy too?" Jim asked after Nicole hung up the phone.

Nicole nodded but then shook her head.

"I'm not sleepy. I'll keep you company."

"Yes!" Although Jim was sensible, he was still a child and was infatuated with age keeping.
