Now, his father looked at Nichole with a pleading face and pleaded in a low tone, “Nichole, please, don't make me wait for too long.”
Mr. Bailey had come to realize that it was only the children who bond them together, so this was an opportunity to talk to her. Nichole simply stood up and walked back to her seat without response.
Then, Louis had freshened up and joined them in the parlor. They stood up while Mr. Bailey picked his car keys, they walked to the courtyard, after they got into the car, he drove to the spot where Nichole usually take them to for outing when they were younger. Louis remembered the old days when nothing bothered him. He walked around buying all sorts of delicacies for himself and the entire family. His parents sat down at a table as other couples with their drinks while waiting for him. Then, Arthur resumed his toasting of Nichole as he looked into her eyes and called out, “Nichole.”
