Chapter 1079
Felicity was not afraid of many things, but she was afraid of the dead, especially those who died by drowning.
When she was younger, she attended a relative's funeral with her mother.Her relative was fishing by the river when he had a heart attack and fell into the water.
It took the salvage team four to five days to recover the body.
Felicity was young at the time and could not help being curious.
At the funeral, she saw her relative being put into the casket.
His body was entirely swollen.
She had nightmares for one year straight after that.
Her dreams always consisted of her dead relative asking her to enter the waters and play with him.
When she heard that her downstairs neighbor had drowned in the bathtub, she was afraid to go home alone.
Vermont saw the odd look on her face and asked, "What's wrong?"
She returned to her senses and immediately said, "It's still early.Why don't we play some video games?"
Vermont gauged her expression and realized that something was wrong.
He pursed his lips and said, "Did you forget? They're updating the servers.It'll only be available at 7 a.m.tomorrow."
Felicity stayed quiet.
Seeing that she did not respond, Vermont asked, "Why don't we watch a movie? My friend introduced me to this new show. novelebook.com Do you want to watch it with me?"
Felicity took advantage of the situation and immediately said, "Okay."
So the two of them turned off the lights, turned on the TV, and put on the movie.It was a European film.
When the title played, Felicity hugged a pillow, asking, "What kind of movie is it?"
Vermont handed her a blanket and said, "It's a romance film.
"Oh," Felicity responded as she put the blanket on her lap.
The plot was rather cheesy.
The male lead was a leader of a gang who fell in love with the female lead—an ordinary girl.
Both of them were extremely good-looking and had great chemistry.
Though the film was somewhat of a cliche, it was still bearable.
