Chereads / One Last Summer / Chapter 40 - There he is!

Chapter 40 - There he is!

Alan: If you don't feel like talking about it, you can just say it, it's totally fine. You're trying too hard to change the topic. It makes you look wayyy too stupid.

Cindy pouted.

Alan: Pfft, nevermind, you can talk to me whenever you feel okay.

Alan turned around to leave when Cindy called out, "Sir".

Cindy hesitated a little, "You're right".

Alan smirked.

Alan: Sooo, you want to talk about it?

Cindy: Well, let's go to a café or something..

Alan: He is in the Café, isn't he?

Cindy: !!

Cindy: Are you a mind reader or something?

Alan: No. The receptionist told me.

Cindy: ...

Alan:Pfft, okay sorry sorry, I won't mess with you anymore. Let's go then.

Cindy: Sometimes I wonder, how are you Boss's twin brother.

Alan: Yeah, same. He is too uptight.

Cindy: Like, I mean, you two are completely opposite.

Meanwhile, at the café, Alex and Isabella took a seat by the wall. A waiter walked to them, "Hello sir and madam, what would you like to have?"

Alex looked at Isabella, "What do you wanna have?"

For the small talk they shared while they were coming to café, Isabella wasn't feeling awkward with him anymore but she was still a little shy.

Isabella: Umm I'd have an Americano.

Alex: I'd have an Espresso.

Waiter: Okay sir, please wait for 5 minutes.

Alex: Alright.

After the waiter left, Isabella thought to initiate a conversation.

Isabella: Wow, that's pretty strong.

Alex: sometimes you need something strong to get going.

Isabella: I understand. How long have you been working here?

Alex: It's been around a 2 weeks.

Isabella: Oh, you're new here then.

Alex: Yeah.

Cindy and Alan walked together to the entrance.

Alan: Let's take the car. It will be faster.

Cindy: Roger!

They drove to the café, Cindy took out a cap and mask from her bag.

Alan: What's that for?

Cindy: To use as disguise, duh.

Alan: you do know he knows me right?

Cindy: Yes, I got one for you too!

Cindy took out another cap and mask and handed it to Alan.

Alan: You got to be kidding me.

Cindy gave a bright smile.

Alan: You really aren't joking.

Cindy smiled brightly, "That's right! Now wear it!!"

Alan:Ugh. Fine!

Cindy and Alan got out of the car and walked towards the café with a misconception that no one would notice them. Every eyes on the street were at them.

-"Who are these weirdos trying to hide themselves?"

-"I don't know, maybe one of their girlfriend is cheating so they came to catch her?"

-"shush! they'll hear us!"

A vein popped out of Cindy's head, 'I DON'T LOOK LIKE A MAN!'

Alan tried to hold his laugh.

Alan:You did dress up like a man today.

Cindy: it's just a suit.

Alan: Yes, men's suit.

Cindy: it was on sale...

Alan:pfft

Cindy looked around the café and saw Alex and Isabella in a corner table. She pulled Alan closer and whispered slowly, "There he is!"

Alan stared at Cindy in surprise.
