Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 11

Strolling back to their table, Carla heard Terence talking to Nina and quietly walked toward them. "What are you two talking about?" Her gaze shifted from Terrence to Nina and she joked,"Are you talking about me?"

Nina got such a fright that she almost jumped out of her skin and fell off of her chair. Still in shock, she got up and dusted herself off and replied,"You startled me, Carla! Don't creep up on people like that."

Terrence arched his eyebrows in confusion and said,"What makes you say that? I'm not the kind of person that talks about other people behind their backs." Terence sprung off of his chair and pull the chair beside him for Carla to sit on. 'What a gentleman, ' she thought to herself.

Sean came running at full speed and shouted,"Look, Terence! Look what I got!"

Terence looked at Sean darting toward him and only one thing crossed his mind, 'I hope he doesn't fall.'

As he was running, Sean was actually holding a medium-sized fishbowl, and inside it was a goldfish. "Look! How cute my fish is!" Sean shouted with excitement.

"Slow down, you..." Before Terrence could even finish his words, Sean's shoes got caught on a loose block of cement causing him to trip and fall face down.

The fishbowl flew into the air, and everyone's eyes just anxiously watched it.

As it hit the ground so hard, the fish tank shattered. There were tiny glass shards scattered all over the floor.

The fish, on the other hand, went flying in the opposite direction. Sean quickly got up and looked around in shock,"Where is my fish?"

All of a sudden, a scream echoed throughout the whole building.

When the fishbowl fell, Nina went a bit hysterical as the water splashed all over her hair as well as her white sundress.

"I am soaking wet. Look at me!" Nina said furiously.

Sean couldn't say anything as he watched it all take place, so scared that he dared not to move his body.

Nina looked down on her dress,"Oh my god! It's on me! Ew, the fish is on me! Get it off of me now! Someone! Anyone! Do it quickly!"

Being severely repulsed by animals, especially a slimy fish, Nina definitely wasn't going to touch it no matter what. She tried to shake it off, but the fish was stuck to one of the flower embellishments on her dress.

Sean immediately stopped staring at Nina in shock and took the fish off of her dress.

"I am so sorry, Auntie Nina. I swear I didn't do it on purpose. Please forgive me," Sean pleaded.

He came back from shock and then remembered that the fish belonged to him and that it was obviously gasping helplessly for air. 'I better get this fish back into water before it dies.' Running around for something to put the fish in, he eventually found a glass of water, only it was on someone else's table. "Uha!" quite impressed with himself, he shouted out loud. However, the man that was sitting at the table did not seem amused watching Sean put a fish into his glass.

Nina glanced down at her dress that got completely ruined. She was so angry,"You stupid brat! You did this on purpose. I know you did, Sean!"

"No, that's not true! It wasn't my intention!" Sean widened his eyes and faked a small tear,"I swear Auntie Nina, I didn't do it on purpose."

Nina looked at him in disbelief,"How dare you lie to me?! I know all of your tricks and tactics, and that was definitely not by accident!" She looked at Carla who was trying her best not to laugh,"Your sister is probably in cahoots with you!"

Everyone began to stare at Nina, and she couldn't understand why. She glanced down at her dress and realized the white dress she was wearing was now see through. Nina was furious and embarrassed,"Sean, I'm gonna get you for this!

"You're such a rascal! I'll be giving you a hard lesson today," Nina said.

However, she failed to catch him. Terence stopped her from catching him and kept standing between them.

"Miss Nina, please calm yourself down. He's just a ten-year-old boy who has apologized for his misbehavior. You can't just go and beat him," Terence said to Nina in a cold tone before Carla could go and help Sean.

Meanwhile, Evan came to them as he had heard the commotion.

Evan took off his coat and put it on Nina as he said to her,"Nina, don't be angry. It's just a dress. I'll buy you a new one. He's just a child. There's no need for you to get mad at him. Don't be bothered by it too much."

"Evan, it's his..." Nina tried to explain to Evan.

"Evan, I'm sorry. Let me apologize to Nina on behalf of my brother. He's really just a reckless and naughty boy. As a result, he fell on the ground carelessly and got Nina's dress wet! I'm sincerely sorry about that!"

Carla apologized to them before Nina could finish her explanation.
