Sweet Twins

Unfortunately, it was much too noisy in the bar. It was hard enough for Jay to hear what Doris said, let alone Nancy's cough.

"What time are you going home?" Doris almost had to yell so Jay could hear her.

"Well, it seems like this social engagement won't be finished anytime soon. Go ahead, I'll go home right after this is over." Jay spoke in a loud voice. The music was too loud.

A sly look appeared on Doris' face. She smiled as she said, "Well, take your time. But don't drink too much. Otherwise, you might go home to the wrong house. Ha-ha!"

However, Jay didn't understand that Doris was mocking him. "Yes, I won't drink too much."

After a few seconds of silence, they ended the phone call. "Okay, then. Bye." After saying that, Doris hung up the phone. But she still held the phone in her hand. Her knuckles were white from clutching it too tightly. It was obvious how hard it was for her to endure that phone call.

"What the hell are you doing? Why are you abusing yourself like this?" Nancy scolded her. Doris obviously knew that Jay was in the bar. Yet, she still asked him about where he was. It was clear that Jay was lying to her.

Naturally, she was very angry. But she just pretended not to care about it at all.

Was it really self-abuse? Maybe it was.

"Aren't you the one who wanted me to call him?" Doris turned her back from Nancy.

"Yes, I did ask you to call him. But I wanted you to ask him to go home. Instead, you just pretended to understand him and allowed him to come home any time he wants. Is that really what you want? What if he decides not to go home at all? Will you be okay with staying home alone tonight?" Needless to say, Nancy was furious that Doris had to go through this because of Jay.

"Why do I have to be alone? Don't I still have Ace?" Doris retorted. She faced Nancy again and said, "I've made up my mind. If Jay dares to fool around with other women, I'll just spend the rest of my life with Ace. We don't need him! It's better for that man to continue having fun outside. And while he's at it, I hope he catches some sort of disease! That's what he deserves! The person who does something bad must pay the price, right?" Doris spouted through gritted teeth.

"Wait, what... Doris, When did you become so vicious? At the end of the day, Jay is still Ace's father. If he does catch a disease, aren't you scared?"

"Humph! We're almost like strangers to each other now. Why should I be afraid?" Doris said derisively.
