Today the weather was fine, and I woke up early as usual to prepare breakfast for my family. A full-time wife always leaves the house around 9 a.m. to go to work or run errands and comes home around 3 p.m.
Today my husband and I went to the restaurant for lunch. We had ordered a few dishes and were leisurely waiting for the food to be served when I suddenly noticed a man coming in at the door of the restaurant.
But when he saw me, he was stunned, and his eyes widened like brass bells, and I couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Little ...... Miss?" the man stammered.
"You're ......," I looked at him bewildered.
"I ...... Where have I seen you......" The man was stunned for a few seconds, and the whole person froze.
I looked at him at a loss, and the change in the expression on his face made me feel a little uneasy.
"Eat, eat, don't stand there for what?" the husband suddenly slapped the table, breaking the deadlock.
"Oh...... Okay, okay, sorry. The man quickly found a place to sit down, but he kept staring at me with wide eyes, and the look of doubt on his face made me feel very uncomfortable.
After lunch, my husband couldn't help but ask me, "Miss, do you know each other?"
The man was still in the cafeteria, staring at me all the time. The whole lunch process was very uneasy in my heart.
I was baffled by this sudden situation. Why did he look at me like that? Did he really see it somewhere? But I really don't remember.
I really don't know what to do?.
When I got home, I kept thinking about the strange behavior of the stranger at lunch. I couldn't concentrate all afternoon, and I always felt like a pair of eyes were staring at me, which made me feel very uneasy.
In the evening, I was preparing dinner, and when my husband came back, he saw that I was not looking right, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
I told my husband what had happened at lunch, and he frowned and was silent for a long time.
"Are you sure you're not wrong?" asked her husband suddenly.
"I ...... I'm not sure, but I don't really remember seeing him anywhere. I replied with some trembling.
The husband was silent, apparently lost in thought. After a while, he suddenly said, "Maybe I'm too worried, I'll ask my mom to take a look."
My husband's mother lives nearby and is our neighbor and has always taken good care of me. The husband decided to ask her if she might know something.
After a while, the husband came back, his face a little solemn. He said to me, "Mom doesn't know either, but she advises us to go to the police and maybe find out what's going on."
I hesitated, but my husband said firmly, "We have to find out, because it always makes you feel uneasy."
Early the next morning, we went to the police station together. After the inquiry, the police promised to investigate and contact us as soon as possible.
"What's wrong?" I asked nervously.
The husband frowned and replied, "The police have found the man, who claims to be your long-lost brother. ”
I was stunned, and endless doubts welled up in my heart. How could it be? I had never heard of it! What the hell was going on?
It's been a few days since that strange encounter at the hotel, but the person's appearance is still lingering in my mind.
One day, my son suddenly said to me at dinner, "Mom, why have you been looking restless lately, is there something hiding from me and Dad?"
I was a little surprised, I thought I had been trying to hide my emotions all along, but I didn't expect to be discovered by my son.
"Son, it's nothing, maybe I've been under some pressure at work lately, and I'm a little annoying. I smiled a little unnaturally.
However, who knows, his son's words completely broke the apparent tranquility of this scene.
"Mom, are you hiding something from my dad about me and my brother? I saw some rumors on the Internet that you have some unknown relationship with a person called you, is it true?" the son looked at me with confusion.
"This ...... This is all nonsense, don't listen to the rumors on the Internet. I quickly denied it.
However, the look of my heart revealed the true thoughts of my heart.
I was about to explain to my son when my husband's voice suddenly sounded behind me: "Son, why are you thinking nonsense, how could your mother have such a thing?
"But Dad, these rumors seem to be true, are they all false?" said the son with some insistence.
I looked at my son's eyes, and my heart was filled with endless anguish and grievances. These rumors hurt my family, and I don't know how to convince them that these are just nonsense.
In the face of my son's doubts, I only felt powerless and helpless, and this cloud of doubt made me restless, and I began to avoid all doubts and doubts, hoping that all this would pass soon.
Soon, we were back home. The mysterious act of that stranger has always lingered in my mind.
When I stepped through the door, I saw my mother-in-law sitting in the living room, looking pensive. She had always been a very kind person, but today was unusual, her brow furrowed, as if something was on her mind.
"You're back. She turned her head a little tiredly, her eyes falling on me and my husband.
"Mom, what's wrong with you, what's going on?" I couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing, it's just something that has been bothering me lately. The mother-in-law said slowly. There was helplessness and exhaustion in her voice.
"What's going on? Mom, if there's anything we can do to help, just tell me. The husband asked with concern.
"It's really nothing, and you don't have to worry. She waved her hand, as if she didn't want to continue the conversation.
But I know that she must have some bitterness in her heart. This after-dinner conversation, the strange encounter, and the heavy mood of my mother-in-law all made me feel irritable.
My mother-in-law walked away, and my husband and I stayed in the living room. I stared out the window, full of thoughts. I knew I couldn't just give up, I had to find out the truth of the matter.
I picked up the phone, and it was a voice I had never heard before.
"Hello, I'm so-and-so, I need to meet with you and talk about that. A man's firm voice came from the other end of the line.
I hesitated, but agreed. It's all incredible, and I need to find out.
