Chapter 78

"I got it downstairs, I don't know if it was abandoned by its mother, or perhaps it got lost." Zoe stroked the kitten in her hand lovingly. "Do you want to keep it,Cora. If you don't want it, I can take you back to my house. "Zoe came to the living room and sat on the sofa. She held the kitten in her arms. "I'll keep it. It can help me divert boredom. I’ll name her Fatty. Look at her. She's so fat.”Cora smiled. She liked little pets very much. The cat in Zoe’s hand meowed, making her laugh. "She's not fat. She is cute. Is there anything to eat? Maybe she is hungry. She is mewing." Cora replied, "There is ham sausage in the fridge. You can feed her with it. Let's order some cat food online later. It's better." Holding the kitten in her arms,Zoe walked lazily to the kitchen, looking like a lazy mother who was looking for food for her child. She opened the refrigerator, found the ham sausage, cut it with a knife, and the cat began to meow.Zoe gently fed the ham sausage to the little cat's mouth and said, "Your master is saying that you are fat now. Tell her that we can lose weight after you are full." Cora burst into laughter. When the little kitten was full, she fell asleep under the sofa and let out a whistling sound. She looked so cute. With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Cora thought, 'Life is full of wonders. Sometimes a careless move will bring a surprise.' Maybe Fatty was the new surprise in Cora’s life. Turtle soup was boiling for more than two hours. Cora’s father finally came back. The three had dinner happily. Then Zoe and Cora went out for a walk, while Eddie stayed at home alone. After working for a day, he really didn't want to go out for a walk. At this time, all he wanted to do was to lie on the sofa, wrapped in a warm blanket and watch TV. Her daughter came back at ease. Everything was so good. The problems he had worried about were finally over. It was a big blow to Eddie that Cora’s mother died.That meant failure in life and meant his efforts were despised. But in our life, working hard wasn't the only thing to make us happy, because there were always gains and losses. When a person was particularly obsessed with one thing and indulged in it, he would ignore other things. Maybe Cora’s mother just couldn't stand this aspect of Eddie. But it was too late when Eddie realized it. She couldn't afford to wait. All worth waiting was the best. Cora and Zoe went to the night market. That was what they liked to do most in college. But later, it seemed that the night market was not popular, so they gradually forgot. Many people liked to be nostalgic, as if nostalgia was the best thing. In fact, this was exactly the reflection of human nature. What was lost was always beautiful, and the good was always too short. Looking at the pajamas in front of her with a smile,Cora was like a college student. Zoe coughed and said, "If you like it, just buy it." Cora said to the proprietress, "Well, I want to buy the pajamas." "Okay, sister. This is 120 dollars." The proprietress answered skillfully and kindly. "Okay." After giving her 150 dollars,Cora turned around and was about to leave. Then the proprietress looked at the backs of the two people and shouted, "Miss, I haven't given you changes yet!" With a smile,Cora said, "no, thanks." Zoe didn't want to go home. She just wanted to stay at Cora’s house tonight. In the evening, when they two were lying on the bed,Zoe texted to Noah, "I had dinner at Cora’s house today. After dinner, we two went out to the night market. Then I won't go home today. l will stay in Cora’s house.". Looking at the message, Noah pretended to be jealous. "How can you not go home?You’re spending the night with someone else.What about me?” Zoe couldn't help laughing when she saw the message sent by Noah. She handed her phone to Cora. Cora snatched her phone and texted to Noah, "What's wrong,Noah?This is Cora.Are you afraid that I’ll snatch your girlfriend?” Noah burst into laughter and said, "I’m just kidding because I know you can’t.Zoe will always choose me.” Cora huffed and returned the phone to Zoe. Zoe didn't say anything after reading the news. The two turned on the bedside lamp. The room was neither too bright nor too dark. “Cora, what is love? Why are so many people crazy about it? I didn't believe that I would be so obsessed with it before, but now, I really have to believe it."Zoe sat on the bed with one hand holding the other hand and her back against the head of the bed. Cora had already been lying down. Since the weather was a little cold, she had already put her hands in the warm quilt. "Who knows? In the past, I thought people could live well without love, but now I find that without love, without love and losing love are totally different. The most painful thing in life is to lose someone."Cora seemed to be a little sad, but she didn't want to disappoint Zoe. "Cora, tell me the truth. Do you still love Tristan? Do you still miss him?”Zoe turned around and stared at Cora who was lying next to her. "I don't know. I've been hurt too many times. Now I'm numb about it and I’m not excited to see him. But whenever I think of all the bad things he has done to me, I still feel very sad. I can’t forgive him.” "Cora, sometimes I feel sorry for you and your grievances, but I can do nothing."Zoe was a little depressed. "Zoe, in fact, you don't have to worry about it.Life and death are decreed by fate, so is love. Everyone's fate was destined.Since they couldn't escape, they had to face it bravely. Anyway, I don't think I have done anything wrong. I always believe in the conservation of energy. Love is also the same. Incomplete things will always return in another form. " There was no emotion in Cora’s voice. "Cora , I don't understand you. If Tristan wants to make up with you, can you forgive him?" Zoe asked cautiously. She had heard from Noah that Tristan badly wanted to make up with her. "It's over. Let's not talk about it." When Cora uttered the eight words, her heart skipped a beat. Since fate was shallow, what was the point of deep love? She couldn't tell where the love came from and where did it had gone. Nor could she tell the love and hatred's whereabouts. Zoe seemed to feel a little cold. Obviously, Cora’s answer was negative. Zoe could not help but sigh. "Cora, what do you think is the most important thing in love?" Zoe suddenly asked. "Maybe the two get along well with each other. To put it bluntly, he must treat you wholeheartedly. " However, Cora didn't avoid this question. It was easy to tell whether a man loved you or not. There were thousands of forms of love, but there was only one form of not love, which was silence. Only the one of a man's interests could arouse his passion. If a man was very cold to you, then there was no passion. Cora felt a headache. Obviously, these were just an unimportant things, but the thought of it made her heart ache. Her ex-husband was like a pain in the heart forever. No matter how long it had passed, when she thought of it, she would still remember how painful she had been when they broke up.
