“Oh, sure!” Jennie did not expect Waylon to agree to her invitation, she continued, “I will give Doris acall now.”
Waylon said, “Remember to send me the location after you have made the reservation; I will pick Doris
“Alright! Let’s meet at the Struyria Banquet! I will leave Doris to you.”
Waylon hung up the call and texted Emmeline, “I am busy.”
Emmeline checked her mailbox; she was confused by Waylon’s reply. What does he mean? Does henot care that Mr. Thomas is here for Doris?
Emmeline was worrying while Doris came downstairs. She said, “Emma, can I leave earlier today?”
Emmeline thought to herself, Did Mr. Thomas text Doris that he was here? Did he tell her that he waswaiting for her?
Just when Emmeline was still debating whether to grant the leave, Doris continued, “Jennie won thedivorce lawsuit. She invited Mr. Adelmar for dinner. I am joining them.”
Emmeline hurriedly said, “Sure, you may leave early today! Send my regards to Jennie!” Did Waylonsend those texts on purpose? Is he trying to act calm? I bet he knew about Jennie’s lawsuit when Itexted him!
Daniel stood up and said, “Doris, I am here. I am waiting for you to get off work.”
Doris was surprised. “Mr. Daniel, why are you here?”
“I have been here for a while. I didn’t intend to disturb you when you were working.”
Doris said hesitantly, “I apologize, Mr. Daniel. You should have heard it; I have a date with my sistertonight.”
Daniel said, “I did. You should join your sister; I am always available. We could do it another day.”
Doris smiled and said, “I am sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Daniel pointed at the table and said, “Don’t worry about it; it hasn’t been long. I haven’t had my dessertyet.”
Sam said from the side, “I could pack it for you; it won’t go to waste.”
Emmeline said, “How about another box of durian-flavored mochi? You can enjoy it at home.”
Daniel said, “Thank you for offering; a box is more than enough. I have something to ask Doris.”novelbin
Doris nodded and said, “Go ahead.”
“A friend of mine is getting married the day after tomorrow. Could you come with me?” Daniel asked.
Doris hesitated, saying, “I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to go with you.”
Daniel said, “It is. I could only ask you. Please say yes.”
Doris gave it some thought. Mr. Daniel had been waiting for me to get off work. I felt guilty if he wastedhis time. Besides, even though he was the son of an official, he never treated me rudely. She said,“Sure, I agree. I will prepare a present for your friend.”
“There isn’t a need for you to prepare a present. You are my partner; you shall just attend the weddingwith me.”
“Alright.” Doris nodded.
“It’s settled. I will pick you up the day, after tomorrow. It is in the evening. It won’t delay your work.”
Doris-replied, “That’s great.”
Daniel took the coffee and dessert that were packed by Sam and left in satisfaction.
Emmeline thought to herself, We had blocked the date for tonight, but we failed to stop the date on theday after tomorrow. Waylon, you must hurry up!
Waylon came to the Nightfall Cafe after Daniel had left. Emmeline saw him across the road. He openedthe door, and she pretended she had just noticed him.
She said exaggeratedly, “Wow, look! Someone is here!”
Waylon snorted and flicked her forehead, saying, “Stop playing dumb. You should have seen mecrossing the road.”
“I didn’t; I was too busy with my stuff. You appeared out of nowhere!” Emmeline laughed.
“Naughty!” Waylon looked at her softly.
Emmeline said playfully, “Are you here for Doris?”
