Jenny can't help smiling thinking that Frankie might come to her out of concern. She opens the door and says, "Hey, Frankie, what brings you here this late?"
This elegant handsome gentleman looks even taller in a brown tweed coat. He stares at Jenny with his deep and cold eyes for a while before he says, "To make sure you're doing great."
"You're the only person always treating me as a child" says Jenny shyly with a smile. She drags him in and asks, "How about some food? I bought some food for hot pot earlier today. Would you like a hot pot now?"
Frankie nods his head, "Sure?"
"Wait for a sec" says Jenny and she kisses on his cheek standing on her toes. She runs towards the kitchen, saying "It's the best season for spicy food. But I'm gonna make light soup since Jessica shouldn't eat spicy food."
She has no idea that Frankie keeps looking at her back with complication.
A moment later, Jessica comes out of the bathroom. Holding the pregnant test kit in her hand, she wears a sweet smile. She's even happier at the sight of Frankie in the living room, greeting "Frank."
She hands the pregnancy test kit to Frankie and says shyly biting her lips, "It seems I'm pregnant."
"What?" Frankie is stunned to know that.
He takes the pregnancy test kit over and checks it. His surprise turns into joy. He stares at Jessica for a while and holds her to himself, says in a happy gentle tone, "Jessica, I never expect this..."
Jessica holds his waist and whispers, "I was super nervous at first. I was afraid I got it wrong. And I find it's true after the test of this. Frank, will you, will you love this baby?"
Frankie kisses her forehead with love, "You give me this present. I absolutely love it."
"But, about Jen..." Jessica hesitates and seems to make a big decision, "Frank, we'd better keep this behind Jen. She's my best friend. I don't want to upset her."
Jessica sobs on his chest as she says that, "It's never been my intention to grab anything from Jen. But, but I love you so much. I can't let go of you. I am so happy and I am so sad to know about the pregnancy thing."
"Easy, you can't be too emotional at the start of your pregnancy." Frankie feels upset about this. He covers her with the coat from the sofa, saying "I can break up with her. Why do I care about her feelings?
"Frank, don't do that. It hurts Jen so much." says Jessica with a satisfying smile like a victory.
Crack! A harsh noise of the ceramic dish falling to the ground comes out of the kitchen.
Jenny stands at the kitchen door with two rigid hands in the air. She doesn't miss a word of their conversation. She keeps her eyes wide open at the two of them leaning on each other, "You, what did you just say?"
Does she misunderstand their conversation? Does she have an illusion?
"Jen..." Jessica panics at the sight of Jenny and tries to get rid of Frankie.
Frankie, instead, holds her tight in his arms. Indifference appears on his handsome face. He stares right at Jenny without showing any pity and says in a cold tone, "I said, Jessica is pregnant. I'm gonna marry her!"
Jessica is pregnant...
This is like a sword sticking to Jenny's eyes.
Jenny stares with her dark eyes at the tummy covered by Jessica. She moves her eyes up and stares at Jessica's face which shows no guilty or sorrow. She asks word by word, "The man you mentioned you are in love with is Frankie?"
