"Okay, Uncle Lucian." Kenny put down his phone and looked at his younger brother. He saw him pulling the light blue quilt all the way to his head.
Kenny sighed slightly. He did not know when his mother would wake up, but ever since his mother's accident, his brother had been avoiding reality.
In his mind, his mother had always been very strong, which made them feel a little sorry for her sometimes.
Ricky was so good at saying all the touching words such as "Mom, I love you. Mom, I miss you very much today", and he always said then with his warm bright smile which was like sunshine on a winter morning. Even Kenny could feel it.
But Kenny wasn't like that. He loved his mother so much, but he could never say such words.
Every time when Gia and Ricky argued, Kenny would always be the quiet one watching them aside. But he really enjoyed the feeling of having everyone around him even though it was noisy sometimes.
Thinking of this, he got up and went to turn off the light to sleep.
The darkness in the room made the two brothers feel even more depressed.
It was so quiet on the street at night, and only the sound of leaves moving in the wind could be heard.
Graciella and Loomis walked side by side on the sidewalk, and their shadows were reflected on the street.
Graciella was a little tipsy. "Loomis, you are such an outstanding man, but why haven't you married yet?"
Loomis looked at her rosy cheeks and slightly curled his lips. "Do you think I'm outstanding?" He actually had a bad temper. His former girlfriends all left him because they couldn't stand his temper.
However, he felt he never lost his temper when he was with Graciella, on the contrary, he always would like to do anything to please her.
He looked at the distant street and said, "Because I'm very short-tempered."
"That's nonsense. I think you are very talented." Graciella retorted him immediately. She never felt he was short-tempered.
Loomis looked away and turned his head to Graciella. Her smile was like the bright moon in the sky. "Graciella, you are the first woman who said this to me."
All the women he dated before really had him totally twisted.
He had always known that women were addicted to buying clothes, but......
He always hoped that he could meet a woman he liked who could also change him into a better person.
He hadn't dated anyone else since three years ago. It was not because he didn't want to get married, but because he hadn't met the right person.
Graciella smiled, and her charming look in the quiet night made Loomis take a deep breath. He had seen many beautiful women, but she was the first one who could make him feel like this.
Graciella chuckled. "You're also the first man that I said this to."
"It's a great pleasure for me!" Loomis said.
"The night view is so beautiful in River City! When I left here, I was only 10 years old, and now, over 20 years have passed already. Time really flies. I can't believe that I'm already in my 30s."
Time had truly changed a lot of things, leaving many people in a state of misfortune, and also making many people happy.
Loomis's heart ached as he looked at her. He more or less heard a little about the matters of the Alwynn family.
