I never knew Jason could cook, because I thought a rich man like him would never touch a kitchen knife. Unexpectedly, I underestimated him.
In half an hour, he had cooked three dishes and one soup: steamed fish, braised meat balls in brown sauce, fried spinach and vegetable soup.
When the dishes were served, I was quite curious and asked him, "Why do you make such a light meal?"
"Because you like it." He said, untying his apron.
I opened my mouth, but did not speak, of course, I liked to eat this kind of light food. But in the elite special forces so many years, like everyone, I started to eat greasy food.
He seemed to guess what I was thinking, "Your condiments are only soy sauce, salt, MSG and sugar, I can't find anything else, so I have to cook such light foods."
Hearing that, I really had nothing to say. I had been on an abnormally light diet since I got pregnant. I couldn't smell any greasy smells, which made me sick.
Once, on a whim, I decided to make dumplings for myself, so I excitedly went to the market to buy some condiments. As a result, when I mixed the fillings, the smell made me sick all day, then I threw them all away angrily.
Jason's cooking skill was very good, I knew that when I smelled the dishes. The combination of simple ingredients and ordinary condiments brought my appetite up. I helped myself to a bowl of rice and sat down to eat.
Jason, sitting opposite me, did not eat himself. With a pair of clean chopsticks, he first took a meat ball for me. Then he put half the fish in my bowl, and I looked up at him, said, "Mind your own business. I have hands."
He said, "I'm not very hungry."
"Are you kidding me? I thought you were hungry because you were so active to cook." I said.
"No," Jason hurriedly denied, "I just think you are hungry."
"How do you know?"
"Your lips go white when you're hungry."
I was a little stunned, was that true?
"When you were in the army, your lips would turn white when you were hungry and your forehead would sweat. Maybe you have a slight hypoglycemia." He continued.
That was the truth. I often couldn't eat enough food when I was a child, so I would be very giddy and sick as soon as I became hungry. After some time in the army, I got a little better. But now it seemed to be serious because of my pregnancy.
I usually had a special attention, if it were not for the need for drawing blood today, I would not let myself be hungry all morning.
"How could you observe so clearly?" I was a little embarrassed, to tell the truth, I really did not expect Jason would observe me so carefully.
"Don't you understand, Kevin?" Jason suddenly reached out to grab my hand on the table, "I have always liked you. Can you not really feel it?"
Although I had the mental preparation, when these words really came out of Jason, I was still shocked. I gawked at him, seeing his expectant eyes, I did not know how to react.
Jason suddenly stood up, walked around the table to my side, and knelt upon one knee, looked up at me, quietly said, "Kevin, listen, I've liked you for five years. I've liked you since I first met you. At the beginning, it may be love at first sight, but as we got along day by day, I found that I liked you more and more, until now, maybe it can't be called 'like' anymore, it is 'love', I love you Kevin, do you hear me, I love you."
I was stunned. I looked at his face and took a long time to digest what he said. Jason loved me? Why did I find it a little funny?
I covered my eyes with my fingers and then said, "How about Mark?"
Jason said, "It's not his business. Kevin, do you still not understand what I have said? I've never liked Mark, I've always liked you..."
"But the man I like is Mark." I interrupted.
Hearing that, Jason froze, he seemed to think of that now, yes, Kevin always liked Mark.
I took a deep breath, and looked at Jason, who was humbly kneeling in front of me, and said, "Jason, thank you for liking me. To tell the truth, I am touched to know that I have been silently protected for so many years, but the feelings can not be forced, I don't want to lie to you, I've liked Mark for five years. Even if now I have left the army, I still like him. So sorry, I can't accept you."
Perhaps many people would think I was a very ruthless person, but as I said, the feelings could not be forced. If I accept him for his warmth, finally he would be hurt. I couldn't let myself become an irresponsible person.
Jason looked up at me, but I dare not look into his eyes, I was afraid I would be soft-hearted, and then make unforgivable mistakes. I held his arm and said, "Come on, get up. Don't stay on your knees."
Jason did not move, suddenly, he put his hands around my hands, and his face gently stayed inside, I felt hot and moist liquid running through my hands, for this moment, my belly had a strange feeling.
It was a fetal movement.
The little one was moving in my belly!
And then I could clearly feel a kick in my belly from him.
I didn't know how to describe this kind of feeling, as if my baby was awakened by his daddy's tears.
I looked at Jason with a complicated expression, at that moment, I had a real impulsion to tell the truth, I wanted to tell him, "You have a baby, you're gonna be a daddy, our baby has sensed your existence, and he just kicked you."
But I dare not do that, after all, I was a man, how dare I tell anyone I was pregnant? Even if it was Jason, I also dared not tell him the truth. If he knew that, I thought he would be frightened.
