You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

It was already dusk when Clarissa woke up in the hotel.

She pulled the blankets to herself and leaned against the headboard as she stared blankly into space for a while. Then, she got out of bed lazily and walked into the bathroom.

After washing her face and ordering dinner, she ate, then called Joshua to ask about his situation. He replied that he was doing good.

Hearing his answer, Clarissa relaxed. However, instead of going directly to the hospital, she sat in a daze.

At that moment, she was no longer imagining things. Instead, she was thinking of the marriage certificate.

Three years ago, Matthew had only mentioned it casually they went to get their marriage certificate.

At that time, it was both a gamble and a happy kind of risk to her. As a result, she had even planned to celebrate the occasion the day they got the certificate. However, Matthew had gone on a business trip after that, so the couple lost the joyful feeling of getting their marriage certificate and only focused on preparing for their wedding.

Since they were getting married anyway and weddings were usually held after a couple got the certificate, she did not tell her grandmother about it. Furthermore, Matthew did not tell others that they were officially married.

To them, the certificate was merely a symbol of their strong feelings, such that they would persevere through the obstacles or suffering that stood in their way.

It was a promise that they would always stay together. For Clarissa, it was a promise full of determination and devotion.

Never would the couple have thought that things would turn out that way after that. As it happened, the most unforgettable birthday in her life was also the one that she least wanted to remember.

After a series of events such as being humiliated, making promises, leaving, and going back home. They had long forgotten about the marriage certificate due to all the conflicts and agitation.

Moreover, her grandmother would only get even angrier, and the Tysons would probably become more agitated if they found out about their registration and may even force them to get a divorce.

Thus, the issue with the marriage certificate was left behind. When she got pregnant later, her grandmother did not force her to abort the child after she found out. Subsequently, she gave birth, slowly recovered, raised the child, and went back to work…

The past three years could be considered the busiest years in Clarissa’s life. She did not have time to worry about her future with Matthew. Moreover, her child and work had taken up most of her life. Especially when she first started raising her child and went through confinement, she had cried from the stress as she was unable to get used to it. In short, her life was in a mess then. When her child first called her “Mommy,” she was so touched. Soon, he grew up and became a cutie…

She never had the luxury to have much time to think things through, recall past events, or plan for the future.

As her child was already over two years old, it would be time to go to preschool after his birthday next year. Therefore, Clarissa had been looking through various preschools.

However, the best educational resources were, of course, in D City.

If not for anything else, Clarissa still had to think for her child. She had to consider where he would be going to school. What kind of education he would receive, the type of classmates he would interact with including friends he would make, and the surrounding environments. All these were issues that she had to take into consideration.

Initially, she had not considered those issues since she thought that her child was still young. Yet, in the blink of an eye, he had grown so much, and she had to start thinking about those matters.
