Chapter 37 Gratitude
Camila let out a frown. “You don’t like her? She’s not bad looking.” Silas did not know how to respond and blurted, “Just because of that I have to like her? You are pretty too.” Camila nodded and gave him a thumbs up. “I like your taste! It’s unique.” Her words amused Silas as she had just complimented both of them at the same time.
“How did you become so good at drinking?” “Through practice.”
Camila continued, “In the past, I couldn’t even finish a bottle of beer. But I kept practicing until I became better.”
Silas was surprised to hear that. “Why did you have to do that? Did you have to have a lot of social engagements?” Camila took a deep breath, gave it some thought, and responded, “When your life’s about to be turned around just because of a glass of liquor, you’d probably do the same.”
Startled, he turned to Camila; he wanted to ask her what had happened but he did not feel like that was proper as they were not at that stage in their relationship yet.
“I’m sorry about what happened tonight. I didn’t think I’d run into them.” Camila responded, “No worries. I’m happy as long as I didn’t offend your friends.”
Silas snorted. “I don’t think they have the right to be angry. Those morons.”
Camila replied, “Please don’t take it personally. I’m the outcast in your circle, so I can understand why they would treat me like that. If someone else barges into my territory, I’d do the same too.”
Silas let out a smile as he really enjoyed listening to her speak; it made him feel at home.
