Cherreads

Chapter 36 - Chapter 36:Meaningless Chatter

{ No matter how much time keeps us apart, we shall meet again }

We headed to the place. Nour kept asking me about numerous things, and I found myself with no choice but to answer her. Her curiosity reminds me of Mayar; whenever I sat with her, she would talk to me for hours.

7:02 PM

"Here we are, we've arrived."

~ "Thank you for the ride. Will you stay here all evening?"

"Maybe. To be honest, I don't know how long I'll stay."

°Nour's phone began to ring°

~ "Oh, I have to go now. Thanks for the ride, goodbye!"

"Goodbye."

As I watched Nour go up to her house...

It was time to find out what was going on.

I got out of the car and headed toward the café.

When I entered, I noticed that the place looked beautiful—the design of the café, the lighting—and there were only a few people there, no more.

I took my seat, and after a few moments, the waiter approached me.

~ "Hello sir, what is your order?"

"Black coffee, no sugar."

~ "I will bring your order shortly."

After a few moments, the waiter brought my order.

"The coffee tastes really good. It seems I'll be coming back here in the future."

While I was sipping my coffee, I felt someone place their hand on my shoulder.

• "Look who showed up early!"

"Take your hand off me, then speak."

• "I see you don't know how to address women."

She sat in the chair next to me and began to look at me directly.

"Sit in the chair across from me, not next to me."

• "How can you speak to a lady whose husband passed away today in this manner? Besides... aren't you single?"

"Don't even think about saying that. Speak quickly; as soon as I finish my coffee, I'm leaving."

• "I was trying to provoke you, but I see it's useless... Waiter!"

~ "Yes, ma'am? What is your order?"

• "Bring me an orange juice... and some sweets."

~ "What kind of sweets, ma'am?"

• "Bring two pieces of the best you have."

~ "I will bring your order shortly."

• "I hope you brought your wallet with you, because I forgot mine."

"Very funny. Why would I pay for what you ordered?"

• "I don't know, maybe in exchange for what you are about to hear."

"Which is...?"

• "Are all judges like you, so impatient? I want to ask you one question before I speak..."

"...Are you... ready to protect Rena until the very end?"
