John looked at the kid in front of him, he sighed, the kid was smart and everyone was fond of him, “Kid, do you want to see Sammy?”
“Of course! I want to see Mr Big Dick as well!” Dan said instantly.
“Do you want to follow me, a strict elder, to my house tonight? Do you dare to follow me?” John asked with great interest.
Dan raised his brow, “Why not? You are not a tiger, you will not swallow me.”
Cohen laughed loudly, he was fond of the kid gradually, he lifted the kid, “Cannot, you better go back with me, I have a lot of delicacies!”
“But Sammy is not in your house, Sammy is my mother’s son, I want to get her son back. Mr Sutton, I like you, can I go to your house tomorrow?” Dan held his neck and asked.
“Ok! Alright! Depend on you!” Cohen smiled.
“Tomorrow is Saturday, right? You can stay at my house until Monday, I will ask the driver to send you to the school!” John said.
“Mr Rowland, are you trying to argue with me?” Cohen was unhappy, “He will go to your house today and go to my house tomorrow, it is a deal! Sweetheart, I will prepare a gift for you, you must come! I have a sweetheart now!”
“Are you ok?” Keegan gave a sheet of tissue for her worriedly.
Sherry shook her head, she showed a faint smile, “Nothing to be worried! I am fine! I go to tidy up now!”
Sherry went to the toilet to tidy up her clothes. However, she shut the door of the toilet when she entered. She leaned against the wall and cried silently.
‘William Rowland! Are you Ok?
I was still missing you! Miss you very much!’ She muttered, she did not know how did she get along these few days, she could not sleep and only fell asleep after a long time. She could look at the ceiling all night long!
How much tears had flowed out, how much beers had been drunk…
In fact, it was so suffering to miss a person! It was more suffering than the days she missed Sammy!
Toilet, toilet was the place where he kissed her for the first time! Why his silhouette still appeared in her mind whenever and wherever?
When Sherry came out, Keegan waited for her outside, he asked with worry, “Are you ok? Do you feel cold?”
He saw her dress being wetted by beers and he was afraid that she would catch cold. Then, he took off his suit and put on her body, “Your dress is wet, put it on!”
“Thank you!” Sherry said.
“You’re welcome, Sherry, let me send you back!” Keegan said.
“Both of them went back to the banquet but they were notified that Dan had been brought away by John.
“Mister, why my son follows Mr Rowland?” Sherry asked nervously.
“Dan says that he wants to bring Sammy back!” Cohen said.
“Eh!” Sherry became nervous instantly.
“Mr Rowland says that he will not swallow your son, please don’t worry so much!”
Sherry could not help but to keep quiet, she seemed to have a lot of worries along the way. Keegan drove his car into the alley. Sherry got down from the car and found a blue Bugatti parked there.
Her heart beat fast.
She got down from the car followed by Keegan.
Sherry searched for something instinctively. There was a lonely silhouette stood beside the car, half of his shadow hid in the dark area while the rest was seen under the light. The light from the streetlamp strengthened his body shadow.
When he saw them getting down from the car, he walked slowly towards them. His sights showed a sense of complexity.
He held a cigarette while waiting for her to come back. It was 11 p.m., she got down from another man’s car!
His heart broke, the painfulness had replaced his emptiness.
Sherry did not speak a word when she saw him. Keegan saw William too.
Two of the men looked at each other from the top to the bottom.
“Keegan, you go back first, it is late now!” Sherry returned him the suit and said smilingly, “Thank you for your suit!”
William narrowed his eyes when he saw Sherry wearing another man’s clothes.
His heart was broken into pieces when he saw Sherry smiling to another man.
The smile was so charming but he did not know that there was grief behind her smile. The charming smile was triggered by the high level of grief, empty and disappointed.
“OK! I will go now!” Keegan nodded, went in his car and left!
Sherry saw the car disappearing in the alley. Then, she breathed in deeply and turned her body.
He walked to her front. The distance between them was two meters. His tall silhouette looked lonely, his expression showed that he was tired and dispirited, his moustache was long, his suit was creased. He held the cigarette but he did not smoke!
She stood in front of him, looked at him. Their sights met.
He looked at her too. It seemed like one century had passed when they looked at each other.
Neither spoke a word, they stayed silent.
It was winter now, the weather was cold, she sneezed. She surrounded herself with her shoulder instinctively. How long they did not meet each other?
Three weeks? Or four weeks?

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
