Chapter 485 - Sari (2/2)

She would have to thank Auntie Ramona who helped her.

Although they hadn't done anything other than the usual 'store employee' and 'customer' interaction, Sari was quite content.

Soon, she would garner enough courage to go up to him and make small talk.

As she was thinking, she stopped by the side of the road and opened the packet of wet cat food she had bought earlier. Pouring its contents at the side, away from people, she waited patiently as two kittens came meowing tentatively over.

She had placed the food in separate places so that they wouldn't fight over it. She crouched there, protecting the kittens from the bigger cats that were trying to come over for the food. She wanted to pet them but they were still wary of her.

”I'm sorry I can't bring you home. When I am all grown up and have a place of my own, I will bring you back, okay?”

She sighed and once they had their fill and left, she opened up the second packet of food. Pouring its contents out, she left. They were too wary of her, so this way, they could eat in peace.

Kyle watched this from inside the store.

”She's a very nice girl, right?” Ramona said as she came to stand by his side.

Kyle quickly looked back down on the floor, saying nothing. That didn't stop Ramona though.

”Her name is Sari. I've known that girl since she was knee-high,” Ramona went on, ”Always cheerful and sweet. Heart of an Angel that one. Lost her parents in an accident and stays with her uncle now. I heard her aunt doesn't quite like her though.”

”Pity,” Ramona sighed, ”But she's not mistreated. Just ... lonely, I guess?”

”Maybe that's why she likes to feed those strays. Uses her own savings, too. Not like she has a lot of it.”

Kyle was silent as Ramona went on and on, giving the girl a huge CV to Kyle.

Finally, patting Kyle on the back, she said, ”Both of you have a lot in common. You should become friends with her.”

With a chuckle, she said as she left, ”Don't worry, she won't bite.”

Kyle shook his head as he turned, not believing what had happened.

This was one thing he had forgotten about Country M.

People were always trying to matchmake you. Even if you're total strangers. Wait, no, that was not true. Not total strangers. But so long as they know you, and they see someone they feel is perfect for you, they'll help in setting each other up.

It was like a national pastime or something.

If you were young and single, bam - get together.

If you were a young couple, bam - get married.

If you were a young married couple, bam - get kids.

The list goes on and on.

Still, Ramona was right about one thing.

This girl is quite a good girl indeed.
