“Nothing.” I pop a sushi roll into my mouth to stop myself from revealing anything else.
“You seem sad.”
“I’m…”
“Lonely?” she offers.
I nearly break one of the wooden chopsticks because of how hard my fist clenches.
The worst kind of expression flashes across her face.
Pity.
“For how long?” she asks.
Too long.
“Not going to lie, I expected you to be married with a kid by now.”
“Married, yes. A kid? Not so much.”
“You don’t want children? For real?” Her throat visibly tightens from how hard she swallows.
“Not really.”
She only frowns harder. “Since when?”
“Since my mom returned from the hospital without my baby sister.”
She wraps her hand around my bicep and gives it a comforting squeeze. “I’m sorry.”
I halfheartedly shrug. “It’s in the past.”
She spares me a look. “We’re quite the pair, you and I.”
“Tell me about it.”
Her hand drops. “You know, a wise man once told me there are plenty of ways to have a child.”
“Is that right?”
“Yup.”
“I think I’ll start with finding a wife first and see where life takes me.”
“Right.” Her grip on the chopsticks tightens.
Cute.
Warmth spreads through my body. “Maybe when you head back to San Francisco, I’ll reconsider my mom’s matchmaking services.”
“I sucked your dick less than an hour ago, and you’re already talking about going on dates with other women?”
“Does that bother you?”
Her nose scrunches. “Ugh. You’re such an asshole.”
“And you’rejealous.”
