Chapter 57 - Planning To Die Single… (2/2)
Reuben grinned and said, ”You should ask this to Henry and Lucinda Uncles.”
Henry who was getting teased by his friends, said, ”Don't you think Reuben, you should explain about Veronica and yourself first?”
”Gosh! What you young men are speaking, I can't understand anything.” Mr. Johnson said.
”Yeah. Same here.” Mr. Wilson also said.
Whereas Mr. Lopez and Smith just chuckled. Then suddenly Mrs. Smith said, ”I have a good idea about it. Why don't we all have lunch together one day?”
Mrs. Wilson spoke, ” That seems a good idea.”
Everyone agreed to held a friendly lunch together, depending on everyone's free time.
When the boys were teasing Henry, Lucinda's face became red as if someone painted her cheeks with red color.
But Veronica was standing there as if the teasing didn't matter to her at all. After all, she had already become accustomed with their teasing since four years, so it was Lucinda's time to face it.
She just rolled her eyes time to time when Reuben or Neil said something lewd to Lucinda and glared at them.
After teasing Henry and Lucinda to their heart's content, Reuben shifted his attack from Henry to Neil.
”So Neil.. Now even Henry also has a girlfriend. When are you going to become committed or have you decided to stay as the no. 1 playboy of our town forever?” Reuben asked.
Henry now got the chance to get the payback of the previous teasing, he also taunted, ”Yes man.. What about you? Are you planning to die single in this life?”
Neil's face become gloomy and he remained silent and thought about a certain girl in his mind..
As the elders were busy talking about their children, the youngsters were also busy making fun of each others…
And then a voice rang into their ears..
”Excuse me.. Can I talk to you all?”
