The Returning Ex

Sophia stared at John. After a long while, she said, “No one else is interested in me since I’m only a touch alluring in your eyes. Don’t tell me you truly think those young, single guys will take a liking to a married lady who has conceived a child like me?”

John’s expression remained tense. “What has your allure got to do with whether you’re married or have a child? In my opinion, you’re more beautiful than the average woman, so you’re more alluring than them.”

The two of them were initially headed for a row, but it veered off tangent at this remark, so the argument was no longer on the horizon. After all, this was obviously a somewhat corny complaint.

Sophia struggled for a bit. “Get up quickly. Get up! You’re crushing me.” John didn’t move, so she heaved a sigh. “Let me tell you that no one else is interested in me. Even if someone were interested in me, I’m not interested in anyone else. You, John Constance, are so alluring that I’m worried that if I were to let go of you, Isabelle would quickly snatch you away.”

Upon hearing this, John’s expression eased. He flipped over and got off her, lying down beside her instead.
