Chapter 790:Gabrio Extra 5
However, the words that followed were hard on his heart.
He did believe that Miss Salguero was good …
You could say that Gabrio has watched Allyce grow up, the assistant was a little younger than Allyce, the school he attended was one of the best institutions in the country and he was the best of the postgraduate group, with a high IQ and intelligence, but a little low emotional intelligence.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Gabrio is very experienced and clearly sees these changes in the young man’s mind.
Sure enough, in the days that followed, the assistant ran to the door whenever he could.
When it was time to leave work, he ran faster than anyone else.
From the station corridor, Gabrio watched through the window as the adjutant opened the door for Alaric and the two walked away laughing and talking.
He smiled slightly, young life and love, always striking.
He, on the other hand, was too fresh to love, too young to look at others.
It was time, he thought, for him to settle down again, and from tomorrow Alaric could still come, but not to wait for him.
Gabrio changed his clothes, grabbed his car keys and slowly made his way to the car park.
Passing by the supermarket, he went in to buy some ingredients.
Now he looked busy and full, but only because he was taking every second of his life so seriously.
He goes to the trouble of experimenting, goes to the trouble of choosing a box of fresh pork, and then goes to the trouble of making dinner.
In this way, he feels that there is still a lot of meaning in life.
Returning to the neighbourhood where he lived and parking his car in the garage, he is carrying his large bag of things towards the flat when he sees two familiar figures.
One step, two steps, three steps …
I still couldn’t pretend I didn’t see them.
He raised his eyes and swept his gaze over Severo and Allyce before finally restraining himself and withdrawing.
Allyce spoke first: “You’re out of order.
She looked at him with a smile, a small bag in her hand and a camel-coloured cashmere coat on.
Only he could still see her shortness of breath.
And so does he.
“Hmm.” Two metres away, he responded faintly and began to approach.
Severo, standing next to her, remained erect and imposing.
Severo’s gaze rested on his leg, then quickly withdrew.
So far she was still doing rehab, and when it rained, it hurt a bit, but the good thing was that it was dry and cold in the north, so as long as I kept her warm, it was no problem.
Severo’s expression was light as he spoke: “Aren’t you inviting us upstairs to sit down?
The tone was like asking a stranger: “Would you excuse us, please?
However, on closer inspection, a flicker of discomfort could be seen in Severo’s eyes.
Severo was not a generous man, and though it bothered him, he knew Allyce wanted to see him, so he went with him.
Gabrio had not seen his parents since he arrived in Sky City, and Allyce had wanted to see him, but he had refused.
It was fate that we would meet again, but I never thought it would come so soon.
Gabrio pursed his lips and gave a very faint smile: “Of course”.
He stepped forward and led the way.
When they entered the room, Gabrio said as he opened the door: “You don’t need to take off your shoes, come in like this.
Allyce walked in and looked at the room, it was simple but neat and clean, Gabrio’s style, minimalist and clean.
He took the plates to the kitchen and said: “Wait for me while I put them in the fridge.
Severo got up and followed him.
He took the bag from Gabrio’s hand: “I’ll put it in your hand while you go out and talk to her”.
His face was cold, not to say reluctant.
Gabrio looked a little amused.
And … a bit jealous.
“All right.” Gabrio, quite naturally, handed everything over to him and gave him instructions on what to put where and how to put it.
Severo did this with great skill.
In his heart, Gabrio didn’t want to admit it, but he knew that Severo was also extremely good to Allyce.
He and Severo loved differently.
Severo was a little more forceful.
But, if Allyce had chosen him, he could have been as strong as Severo …
It had been too long since I had conceived of such impossible hypotheses.
She came out of the kitchen and saw Allyce sitting on the couch looking around, now grown into . Wife and mother, she still easily overlapped in Gabrio’s eyes with the girl from years ago.
Probably no matter how many years have passed, he can still clearly remember Allyce as a child, a bit of what she was like.
Allyce looks left and right and then sees Gabrio, who is standing not far away watching her.
He smiled at Gabrio, “Mr Gabrio”.
Gabrio smiled back and tried to pour him a cup of hot water before remembering that it had been a while since he had been back to stay and that the water from the family dispenser, he didn’t know if it was still drinkable.
He managed to fill the kettle and plugged it in anyway, before crossing to Allyce and saying, “I haven’t been back to stay for a while and I don’t even have hot water”.
Allyce shook her head, “I’m not thirsty”.
It looked better.
The last time I had seen her, she was pale and lying in a hospital bed, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
He wanted to take a good look at it, but he knew that would be bad, so he could only make a very superficial sweep.
The room was warm and Allyce took off her coat as soon as she entered.
Without the cover of his coat, Gabrio could see his slightly bulging belly at a glance.
Meeting Gabrio’s gaze, Allyce hooked her hair between her ears with some embarrassment and said, “At just over three months old, almost four, Alonzo said he wanted a baby sister, and I didn’t know if it was a brother or a sister.
Gabrio laughed: “A brother or sister would be nice.
He smiled softly, indistinguishable from before.
But Allyce’s heart sank for a moment.
He choked and struggled to spit out the words.
Gabrio handed him a paper handkerchief and smiled a little mockingly: “What do you do when you can’t see each other?
Allyce took the handkerchief he handed her and covered her eyes, stifling a smile and saying nothing.
Because the moment he spoke, he might burst into tears.
Severo stood a short distance away looking this way, shifting his feet from side to side, but eventually he walked back into the kitchen.
Suddenly, he fancied another cigarette.
He reached into his pocket and then remembered that he had no cigarettes.
It was better for Allyce to see Gabrio than to have him in her mind. She didn’t want Gabrio to become an indelible mark on Allyce’s mind.
Allyce calmed down before looking at Gabrio: “That’s because you won’t see me.
There was no trace of complaint in his tone, although there was a hint of grumbling.
Gabrio looked at her and said in a sighing tone, “Too busy, eh?
Neither of them said anything through.
There are some words that do not need to be said at length either.
