The two walked to the second floor, Shirley told Morgan where the utensils were placed, and he pushed him back to the dining table and sat down.She watched him laughingly returning to the kitchen, and after sitting for a short time, she smelled the smell of sausage mixed with onions, and when she was waiting expectantly with her face in her hands, she thought of something, got up and went to the kitchen.

Hearing her footsteps, Morgan thought she couldn't sit still and wanted to come over to help, so he hurriedly raised his hand to signal her to go back to the dining table.Seeing this, Shirley raised her eyebrows and stood still, looked up into the kitchen, and said with a smile, "It smells so good."

Seeing her stop at the same place, Morgan put down his raised hand nervously, looked at her with a smile and turned to pay attention to the situation in the pot, "So you can rest assured to go back to the table and wait for my hospitality."

Shirley smiled, pursed her lips and explained, "Actually, I just want to ask... Do you need me to help you in the car..."

Just as she was talking, a cell phone that did not belong to Shirley rang in the room.Morgan looked apologetically at her who raised her eyebrows and didn't continue speaking, turned off the induction cooker, answered the phone, "Okay, I'll be right there."

Seeing him hang up the phone, Shirley looked up, smiled with her lips in her lips, and stepped back, "I'll help you get your clothes, which one do you want to wear?"

Morgan pursed her lips, raised her hand to support the kitchen counter and replied, "You can help me decide, thank you."

Shirley nodded, turned and went downstairs.And Morgan tilted his head to glance at the black pepper just added to the pot, recalling the disappointment that flashed in her eyes when she lowered her head, she shook her head helplessly and walked quickly to the bathroom.

Shirley's movements were also very quick, and he had just come out of the bathroom not long after the clothes were delivered.While hurriedly getting dressed, Morgan asked her, "Do you have any plans for today?"

Shirley thought about it, and answered after a while: "Jiel mentioned to her mother yesterday that I might go to Pittsburgh..."

Morgan listened and could only nod his head, "Sounds good..."

Shirley smiled, watched him get dressed, and went downstairs with him.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Morgan turned around and hugged her into his arms, stroking her back reluctantly, "Sorry, baby...can I make you some breakfast when I come back?"

Shirley smiled and patted him on the back, "Okay..."

Morgan felt relieved, took her out of his arms, stroked her face and heard her answer with a smile, "I will always wait for you."

Morgan smiled, cupped her face, and kissed her lips, "Don't worry too much about meeting your mother, trust me, everything will go well...and, I love you."

Shirley smiled and kissed him back, "I see, we will talk about you, she will definitely like you...I love you too, go quickly."

After hearing her words, Morgan withdrew his lips and couldn't help but leaned closer and kissed her a few more times, then turned around and left quickly.

Shirley then went back to Pittsburgh to take her mother back to Los Angeles to meet Beth, and then accompanied her to play around for three weeks. The day after sending her back to Pittsburgh, she received a text message from Morgan.

At that time, the mother and daughter were sitting on the sofa watching a movie together. Sandy saw her face was full of smiles, and couldn't help asking: "The fbi?"

Shirley quickly replied to the text message, smiled annoyedly, and reminded, "Mom! He's my boyfriend, he's Derek, Derek Morgan...not just some fbi..."

"Okay! Morgan, Derek, whatever it is..." Sandy is very happy when her daughter is back, and she is also quite satisfied with her new boyfriend. The only thing she can't accept is his job, "He is the fbi , on call 24 hours a day, all year round...!"

After a few weeks, Shirley was quite used to this kind of family life, she frowned amusedly and corrected: "No, Mom, they don't work all year round..."

Seeing that she stood up with a smile, Sandy eagerly chased after her and continued to talk about the seriousness of the matter, "Well, he is on call 24 hours a day, do you know what that means?"

Shirley went back to the room to pick out the clothes, looked back at her, and beckoned her to continue, "That means he may leave your side anytime, anywhere, as long as a phone call! Whether you are sick and need someone to take care of you, or your car breaks down There's no one to help you on the road, or when you're having a wedding, or even when you're giving birth...!"

Shirley took off the clothes from the hanger and held them in her hands. She looked at her thoughtfully for a while, then changed her clothes amusedly and said, "Mom, I'm in good health, and I'm good at repairing cars...and you think so far..."

Sandy ignored her indifference, and said earnestly, "He's always leaving y without any hesitation."

Seeing her serious expression, Shirley licked her lips and did not answer. When she was thinking, her cell phone rang. She lowered her head and walked up to her, "Mom, I know what you said. His job is very important. It’s meaningful, it’s glorious. And I’m not the type to be watched all day, okay? No matter what happens, I’m going to get through it, and I’m going to take care of myself, okay?”

Hearing this, Sandy suddenly became more sentimental, "That's the problem! I don't want you to feel alone and helpless, even if it's just a passing thought! I don't want you to always say "I'm fine, I'm fine." Can take care of yourself", I hope someone can take care of you! No matter what happens, you will always be put first! It is because your father and I foolishly believe that you can take care of yourself, so you suffer so much bitter……"

While talking, Sandy shed tears, and Shirley hugged her into her arms and comforted her softly. After her emotions calmed down, the phone rang again.Kissed her on the head, patted her on the back and pulled her out of her arms, said awkwardly: "I have to answer the phone, otherwise he will be worried... And I also hope you can bless us, okay?"

Sandy lowered his head, sniffed, and answered softly, "You mean I wish he would lose his job sooner?"

"Mom!" Shirley smiled, hugged her, walked out of the room, and answered the phone, "Hey... I was chatting with my mother just now, so you are back?"

Morgan was leaning against the wall of the small aisle on the plane, "Well...we just got on the plane and it will take about three hours to get back to Washington. But I can't wait to hear your voice, and more importantly, May I ask if you are free to come to my house for dinner today?"

Shirley smiled and asked, "Do you cook?"

"Of course..." Morgan replied confidently, then added hesitantly after a pause, "I hope I can succeed once."

Shirley laughed twice, and then heard him ask tentatively: "...So, what does your mother think of me?"

"Hmm..." Shirley turned her head and saw Sandy who had been staring at her from a little distance away. She withdrew her gaze and bit her lip, "She will like you."

Hearing what she said, Morgan lowered his head unconsciously, and raised his eyebrows knowingly, "Okay, I will try my best. I love you, and I will pick you up at night."

Shirley nodded and pursed her lips, "I will call you then. I love you, bye."

Watching her hang up, Sandy shook her head and approached, "Did he finish his work?"

Shirley nodded and walked towards the room to pack her things.Sandy watched behind her, stood there for a while, swallowed what he wanted to say, turned his head left and right helplessly and said, "I hope he can take good care of you, and in the time he can leave you In a fraction of the time."

Shirley stopped, smiled and threw herself into her arms and kissed her, "Mom...thank you."

Sandy smiled lazily, stroked her head, and added, "But it would be great if he could change his job."

Shirley got out of her arms, packed up her things, held her hand and walked out the door, "He's fine, and his job is fine, and I'm proud of him. Believe me, once you understand, you will too. Will do."

Sandy stood still inside the door, smiling and waving at her, "No, this job has put Jenny in danger all year round, and now it's making you unable to live a stable life? I wouldn't be proud of that. "

Shirley raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Jiel loves her job, and I have my own things to do... So, take it easy, Mom."

Hearing what she said, Sandy remembered something, walked to her side and asked in surprise, "...you still want to participate in that dangerous competition?"

"Hmm..." Shirley didn't know what to say, she quickly opened the car door and got in, explaining, "There's no danger, mom, it's just a game..."

"Oh! Game?" Sandy repeated angrily, standing outside the door and looking at her with folded arms incomprehensible, "You mean a game like everyone on a roller coaster unbuckles their seat belts? How do I Will you give birth to two bold children like you?"

Shirley smiled, reached out to embrace her, and kissed her face heavily, "It's not that exaggerated... But I think you have to ask yourself when you were young. Well, I will come to see you after a while .”

Sandy stared at her worriedly, but finally nodded with a smile and watched her drive away.

Not long after Shirley went back, Morgan took her to his house.The two had just finished their dinner, and at the moment they were embracing and swinging in the living room with the melodious music playing on the record player.

Morgan smiled and asked, "How was dinner?"

Shirley nodded in satisfaction, "I like it very much... When did you learn it?"

Morgan smiled and buried her head in her arms, "During the time you left..."

Shirley hugged him a little tighter, and rubbed against his arms, "I'm here."

Morgan pulled out one of her hands and put it on her heart, and raised her hand to hug her tightly, "You've been here all along."

Shirley smiled, grabbed it a few times, put down her hand and leaned comfortably in his arms, when she was almost falling asleep, she heard her cell phone ringing, and snorted lazily, "Who hates it so much..."

Morgan smiled, let go of her hand and waited for her to answer the phone, and frowned in confusion after watching her take out the phone, "Are you okay?"

"Well...it's just that I didn't save this number." Shirley nodded, and she answered the phone while talking, and heard a voice like a scary doll that had taught herself for two years, "Everyone who comes here Had to make the same choice..."

"Amanda..." Shirley was so frightened that she dropped her phone and ran out of the room in a panic, putting her hands in her mouth and looking around in circles in a panic, "I want Be one of ten..."

Morgan in the living room was stunned by her for a while, and quickly realized that he picked up the phone and rushed out the door while listening, "Don't slack off, my girl."

The mobile phone was accompanied by a strange tune, and Morgan only heard this sentence before hanging up.He walked lightly in front of Shirley with her head bowed, and only when she got closer did she see that she was clasping her throat, frowning sadly and reaching out her hand to stop her, she had already let go and vomited.

Morgan was at a loss for the current situation. Seeing her stop, he tentatively stretched out his hand to caress her back, and asked cautiously, "...are you okay?"

Shirley turned her body and looked at him vigilantly, then recovered her senses and took the tissue he handed over to wipe her mouth.Standing up straight and pretending to be calm, he nodded, looked around to find the right direction, and looked back at him, "Sorry, I'm going home first..."

Seeing her turn around and prepare to leave, Morgan raised his hand to hold her, "I'll take you back."

Shirley smiled, looking like she wanted to leave quickly, "It's okay, I want to take a walk."

"No, don't go." Morgan pulled her into his arms with a little force, and said softly: "If you don't want to talk about the past, then we won't talk about it. But we must find out about this matter now, we must Find the person who harassed you, okay? Just for that, okay?"

Shirley's hands drooped at a loss, and finally she raised her arms to hug him tightly, and agreed with a choked voice, "Thank you..."
