Chapter 71
In the distance, waves are beating the seashore. Tracey looked at the clock, it's a bit late.
She reapplied some makeup. Thinking of the appointment in the evening, she was heading for the old place.
She thought Rachel must be messing around with Sean now, or she was secretly following him as she had known about Sean's affair in the selling office.
The old place of them was a western restaurant. This western restaurant might just be a normal high-end restaurant for others.
But for Tracey, this place was a great surprise for her. A long time ago, Sean was confessed to her here.
Sweet Nothing. Tracey stood at the door and looked at the familiar yet strange sign. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
The name of this restaurant is just sweet nothing between lovers. Unfortunately, sweet nothing could not defeat reality after all.
Back then, they had promised to spend the rest of their lives together and to give birth to many kids.
Now when she thought of these words, she would only felt ridiculous, just like what she ever said when she played house in kindergarten.
Standing here, she seemed to remember the bright smile on Sean's face at that time, and she also remembered she said that she would only marry him.
She entered the hall, it was cool inside, killing the hot of summer.
"Miss, how many of you?" the waiter asked enthusiastically.
"Two."
"There is a couple's seat. Come with me." The waiter led the way in front. She was smiling when hearing the word "couple seat", but a bitter smile.
When she passed by the hall, her eyes were attracted by a white piano. Of course, she would not forget that Sean used to play it here.
She liked watching him playing the piano very much. When she thought of Sean, the boy on the ship suddenly appeared in her mind.
The boy who liked to wear a white shirt, sat in front of the piano, his fingers wandered quickly on the key.
She had long remembered that scene. Until many years later she watched a classic movie named "The legend of 1900".
She felt familiar at that time, but she couldn't remember clearly where she had seen a person played the piano, also on the ship.
And she had to admit that what made her fond of Sean was because he could play the piano very well.
Most of the people who were good at the piano had beautiful fingers and elegant temperament. She never ever doubted that Sean was the man he loved.
Now she thought that things might not as she expected. It turned out it was very likely that she had a deep impression on Adam when he was playing the piano on the ship.
So that when Tracey met Sean, she found that he was quite similar to the ship piano boy, the boy who may had been forgotten by her for a long time, yet left an extremely deep impression in her
soul.
It was possible that the person she liked had always been the young man in white, and Sean was just a shadow of him.
She was suddenly shocked by her thoughts. No, it was impossible, at least when she was together with Sean, she loved him really.
"Miss, what's wrong?" The waiter turned around and looked at her, she was staring straight at the piano.
"Is this piano has been put there for a long time?" Tracey asked.
"It is. The business in the past two years is not very good, so we were not hiring a piano player." The waiter responded with some disappointment.
The piano performance was a good match for such a restaurant, now it was canceled, it's a pity.
"Really?" Tracey looked away. It turned out that everything had changed a long time ago.
"Miss, this way, please."
Tracey saw an empty seat and stopped. "I want to take this seat. Is it okay?"
"Okay, it was not reserved." The waiter withdrew the curtain, this was the seat they took when Tracey and Sean came to this restaurant for the first time.
From then on, every time they had a date here, they would choose the same position. Sean was also very considerate to book the seat before they come.
In the past two years, the business was not as good as before, so she could be sitting here without a reservation.
Tracey ordered the food. "I am waiting for someone. Can you serve the food after he came?"
"No problem." The waiter drew the curtain for her. She thought she would be sad when she saw the old place again.
But she turned out to have no strong feelings except sighed a little bit. She was sitting by the window.
There was a new restaurant on the opposite, it looked more luxurious with fancier decoration and bright light.
Maybe it was the reason why the business here became worse.
When there was something new appeared, the old thing would be soon forgotten. It was part of the human nature, everyone loved to chase novelty.
Tracey leaned her head against the sofa and closed eyes. Now as long as she thought of Sean, his face would soon turn to Adam's.
After being told that Sean was just imitating Adam so hard.
Tracey began to notice that she loved Sean maybe only because of her impression of Adam.
She took Sean as Adam subconsciously when Sean walked into her life, so she fell in love with him.
So, for so many years, Sean was just a substitute for Adam?
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She still remembered that she would be tempted by some of his actions.
She got excited a whole day when Sean kissed her forehead. How could this kind of emotion be fake?
Just as she was obsessed with her thoughts, Sean arrived. Both of them arrived earlier than the appointed time.
As soon as Sean withdrew the curtain, he saw Tracey in a black skirt sitting deeply in the sofa.
Her slender legs crossed casually, with a pair of black high heels on her beautiful feet.
She leaned her head against the hand, half closed eyes. She only wore light makeup but the lips were in dark red.
Her ring and earing were shining under the lights. Just a glance, Sean could not move his eyes away.
She had changed too much!
When he saw her in the bathroom today, he was only immersed in the joy and excitement of seeing she was coming back.
Until this moment, he had the opportunity to look her carefully and found that she was no longer the little girl who would cry, act cute and seize his clothes, following him around all the day.
She had completely turned into a woman, an elegant and charming woman.
No man could escape from her charm. "Miss, your friend is here. Would you like to have the food now?"
The waiter's voice let Tracey slowly open her eyes. She looked at Sean, who had just arrived, without too much facial expression.
"Okay, please."
She still leaned lazily on the sofa, did not move a lot even though he was here.
She looked calmly at Sean, opening her red lips slightly and said, "Sit."
