Chapter 59 - The sooner you become friends... the more gossips you can have... (1/2)

Veronica also followed everybody but when she passed by Alonzo, she felt someone was staring at her intensely so she looked back but only Alonzo's handsome figure came into her eyes.

Alonzo stretched his right hand to sign her to go forward and giving him a smile, she did so but Alonzo's dark gaze remained at her slim and sexy back..

Madam Brown invited the five youngsters to a pair of five seated and one three seated sofa and told them to sit there.

She sat on one of the five seated sofa along with both of her grandchildren in each side. Whereas Reuben, Henry and Neil took the other five-seat sofa, leaving Lucinda and Veronica to sit on the left one.

After being seated comfortably, Madam Brown called a waiter to serve some drinks, ”Have some drinks kids.” She said.

Taking their favorite drinks from the waiter, they continued to look at each other in silence as they couldn't know what to say.

And then Henry started the conversation, ”Madam Brown, though it may sound rude but there must be a reason for you to call us.”

Madam Brown smiled at Henry and hold Myra's hand tightly, ”You can call me Grandma. It's more preferable to me. And for your enquiry.. I must tell you that yes, you are right. I called you all for a reason.”

Everyone became serious to hear from the old lady and the reason of her sudden frankness.

Laughing at the five young people's curious look, Old lady Brown said, ”Actually I called you to be friends with my grandchildren. I hope you guys will not mind about this idea to make them your friends.”

”Well, becoming friends is not a bad thing. But everyone needs some time to know about the other person to make him or her their friends. But.. the thing is.. we don't know anything about any of them.” This time, Reuben was the one to speak.

Veronica who was sitting silently, curled her lips listening to Reuben's smart talk, but didn't say anything.

”You are really a good talker young boy. I like you. And you are true about your logic so I won't pressure you guys. Now that all of you will live in same city then you can know each other more and later become friends.” Madam Brown said before looking at Veronica who was drinking some white wine.

”I don't know about you guys. But we girls are gonna make good friends. I can really feel by seeing Myra that she can easily mix up with us. Right Vero?” Lucinda excitedly asked.

Veronica smiled at Myra and said, ”Yeah sure. We really can be good friends if Myra wants us to be. So will you be our friends?”

Myra smiled and said, ”Yes why not? I'm so happy that I already found my two friends on my first day in City S?”

”Then that's final. We're friends from now on.” Lucinda clapped her hands.
