"Wow, it seems that you two have built up your own world." Eason Brook suddenly showed up and sat on the opposite of them.
Sheena was a little embarrassed, fearing of what Eason Brook had heard.
However, the expressions that Eason Brook had borne had clarified that he didn't hear anything that he shouldn't hear, for he had stared at Sheena with sincerity and calm.
"Wow, busy host finally is free to serve us…" Elsa Hill teased by joking, successfully disturbing the topics.
"Nothing big" Sheena smiled to nod her head, agreeing what Elsa Hill had clarified. "We were just talking about the jobs after our graduation."
Eason Brook heard this and couldn't help sighing for the time flying, "time goes so fast, I just feel that I have just graduated from the college not long ago, but now it's your turn."
"Of course, how time flies, "Elsa Hill turned to Sheena before continued the chat with Eason Brook, "it's not long ago for the last gathering between us for the graduation party for you, but during such a short period of separation, you've broken up with Silvia, Mike Clinton had run a club, and both Sheena and I have to graduate after the thesis defense…" Elsa Hill was really bravo, Sheena had witnessed her confession after the lightening-up of Eason Brook, ignoring the mini change on the face of Eason Brook.
How could she just clarify those upset stories right in front of the hero? Sheena looked at Elsa Hill with embarrassment in her eyes.
However, Eason Brook didn't say anything but just let Elsa Hill made those statement. He even smiled in the end of Elsa Hill's talk.
Winking to Elsa Hill in a secret way, Sheena tried to stop the continuous talk of Elsa Hill, who just shrugged her shoulders to show her knowing.
"You're alright now, right?" Elsa Hill stopped to inquire Eason Brook.
Sheena turned to look at Eason Brook. In fact, she wanted to know the answer, too. Personally, she wouldn't ask such a sensitive question even when they're alone, but now since Elsa Hill had asked him on behalf of her, she would like to get the answer, too.
Eason Brook smiled. With crossed hands on the knees, Eason Brook answered the question of Elsa Hill but looked at Sheena with sincerity and seriousness. "Let the past pass, this is the right way to go on the life, right?"
Such a inquiry had answered the suspect of both Elsa Hill and Sheena. Although Sheena knew it may be not true feelings, but it's good enough for him to make such a statement.
"Have you gotten any offers?" Eason Brook inquired Elsa Hill, whose attention was successfully distracted and introduced the experience in the job seeking in recent time.
In fact, Sheena hadn't planned for the future after the graduation. She didn't know which way she was going to pick and hadn't started the job seeking.
Although at present she had two part-time jobs in hands, she hadn't thought about what job she was going to engage in in the future. Working in a company and then promoting step by step? Or establishing a start-up company to fully control her own destiny? Or accepting the offer that the Luis Smith had offered?
She was stilling seeking for the better direction.
"What about you?" Eason Brook suddenly interrupted the thinking of Sheena and inquired with curiousness, "Do you need my recommendation or introduction to my law office? You may be perfect for the administration division…"
"Wow, someone got preferential arrangement." Elsa Hill didn't cover her envy and teased Sheena with a smile.
Eason Brook was a little bit stunned, but soon he had chosen to stand up to release the embarrassment of Sheena, who was immediately blushed in face after hearing the blame of Elsa Hill. "I just heard it some days ago, and I haven't gotten time to tell you guys. If Elsa you would like to come, I may do the same favor…"
Eason Brook's explanation didn't comfort Elsa Hill, who made a face and stuck out her tongue, "No need, I have my way. Don't want to disturb your sweetness."
Sheena patted on the hand back of Elsa Hill to stop her teasing, and Elsa Hill had rolled her eyes on her to show her disgrace, "cowards!"
Although Elsa Hill disgraced what Sheena had acted, she stopped the teasing and stood up, "Fine, I'm going to have some fresh air, enjoy yourselves here." Without waiting the reactions of Sheena and Eason Brook, Elsa Hill just left without any hesitation and joined in the crowd of people who had started to be obsessed with the wine that Eason Brook had reserved on the wine rack for the whole wall beside the kitchen.
"I haven't decided yet," Sheena answered in a soft voice, and in the opposite was Eason Brook was still starting at her with wandering. "I'll seek for your help if needed."
Eason Brook was satisfied with her attitude and continued to introduce the job responsibilities and benefits. Sheena was not surprised by the job introduction of Eason Brook but his knowledge of this job. How could he describe that job so specifically? He was a layer, not the HR department, wasn't he?
However, Sheena tried the best to focus on the introduction and avoid any thinking too much. She was unwilling to figure out the wrong meaning and dive into a pit that she may be unable to jump out.
In that night, all of them had enjoyed the dinner and drinks so much. Sheena didn't know when Eason Brook had changed into a man good at cooking and drinking so much. The dishes served on the table that night were all cooked by himself.
"The woman marrying to you would be the happiness woman in the world." Everyone was blushed under the impact of wines and sighed for the excellent evolution of Eason Brook.
"It's not a big deal. To save money in the early graduation period, we have to learn to cook every meal to save money." Eason Brook was opened after drinking. It's rare for him to confess his feelings and story right in front of so many people.
All of them was stunned and embarrassed to hear that. After all, all of them had witnessed the love story of Eason Brook and felt pity for the story ending. So when Eason Brook recalled the memories, they were silent and just sat there to listen to him.
"No matter what, I'm grateful for whatever I've been through and whoever I've met." Saying this, Eason Brook claimed with smile in his eyes. Right at this moment, all of them had realized that Eason Brook wasn't pretending anything but thought in a quite objective way.
"Screw up that gold digger!"
"Better will be on the coming way!"
"Yep, yep, you deserve the one that truly loves you."
Everyone was excited again and tried to comfort Eason Brook by toasting to him. Eason Brook didn't reject any toasts but accept their greetings instead.
In the memories of Sheena, Eason Brook wouldn't allow himself to drink so much, and this time Sheena could sense that his doing this was not for the hatred or sadness but relief from the past.
[Maybe growing up means to accept the ending of a story even though the starting is so amazing.] Sheena sighed in heart and just watched them dived into the happiness of wine. In the grownup world, drinking seemed to be a cure to some extent.
That dinner was ended in the laughter and greetings. When Eason Brook finally saw off the last guest, Sheena was still waiting for him at the door.
"Wow, is there anything that shouldn't be known by us?" Elsa Hill laughed at Sheena before leaving. However, it's lucky that she finally gave up the mocking by leaving.
Sheena waited until Eason Brook finished the seeing-off.
"Aren't you afraid of going back too late?" Eason Brook was surprised to see Sheena was still there. However, he was happy to see that Sheena was the last one.
Sheena held the gift up and handed over to Eason Brook, "here, the gift for congratulations to your new house, as our promised in the past."
Eason Brook looked at Sheena with sparkling eyes, "you did remember?" Obviously, Eason Brook remembered the promise back then, too.
"Can I open it now?" Eason Brook asked, but his hand had begun to tear off the package.
"Just open it, after all, you know the gift inside it." Sheena shrugged her shoulders and allowed him to continue.
Since he remembered the commitment, he must have known the gift inside the present.
Inside it was a fortune cat. It didn't value too much, but it represented the innocence years that they've spent together.
"In the future, as long as one of the three of us could afford buying an apartment, the other two shall buy a fortune cat separately as a gift."
Although now they've ended up in different paths, Sheena was willing to keep the promise for the two of them.
Eason Brook stared at Sheena with a kind of feelings that he couldn't tell out.
