"It's when you get to know new people, new friends, and new things!"
I nodded, "Alright!"
He was stunned, but took my response as agreement to what he said. "The party is at Greenland Hotel. Don’t be late."
After that, he placed an invitation card on my table and said, "Take this card. Go in and get a number card."
I nodded. "Is there really a need for an invitation card?"
He mumbled a 'yes' as he walked to his seat and packed up his things, "The company has paid for it so you can just go in. There is a hot spring in the hotel. You should go in and have fun."
How grand this party was.
I took the invitation card. He was in a hurry to leave, so he was quiet from then on/
Suddenly, I remembered that I needed to take a few days' leave, told him, "Michael, I may need to apply for leave in a few days. You have to help me approve it."
He looked back at me and frowned, "Are you going to Jarold City?"
I nodded, "There is something I need to do."
"Are you missing your child?"
I suddenly realized that he was a little too talkative. "Something like that."
He nodded and said after thinking for a while, "We can go together. I'm also leaving for Jarold City in a few days."
Just as I was about to reject him, he spoke, "That's enough, pack your things quickly and get ready to go to the hotel!"
Seeing him leave, I said nothing further and looked up at the clock on the wall. Office hours were officially over.
