Cyril (English Version)

32

Benjamin has finally arrived home.

He immediately spoke to Melanie after he witnessed all the events that have happened today.

"Me, Patrick and Elijah found out where that Cyril guy is working."

"Funside Local Diner."

Benjamin smiles.

"So you know."

"Of course."

Melanie shows Benjamin the text message of her private investigator.

"So he did his job."

"Yes, and we're gonna pay him a visit tomorrow. I heard that he still needs to get more things from his locker."

Patrick has arrived home as well.

He went straight to his room.

Lying on his bed, he once again stares at Cyril's shoe.

He picks it up and tries to throw it in his trash bin, but eventually backtracks.

At the other end of his bedroom, he can see that his tuxedo for his upcoming wedding is on a hanger.

He pondered about it for a moment before going to sleep.

As he lies down on his bed, he couldn't stop the tear dripping from his eye.

The next day has arrived.

Cyril unexpectedly returned to Funside Local Diner.

An employee sees him enter.

"Oh Cyril, you're still here."

"Hi! I left a few things in my locker, I'm just going to take them."

"Oh okay. Your locker's still there. It hasn't moved an inch."

"Okay thank you!"

Before he enters the locker room, he notices that Reinald is gone.

"Where's Rey?"

"He didn't come to work today. He said he had to visit his cousin."

"Oh okay. When he comes back, please tell him I said hi."

"Alright."

Cyril goes to his locker to get the remainder of his other belongings.

After a few minutes, Cyril finally emptied his locker.

He leaves the restaurant.

Melanie suddenly appears in front of him.

"Well hello dear!"

Cyril was surprised.

"Ah hello? Umm... How may I help you?"

"Dear don't you recognize me?"

He remembers her face.

"Oh, yes. You're the one at the party."

Melanie laughed.

"Actually, I'm Patrick's godmother."

"The one who spoke into the microphone?"

"Yes, that was me! And I think you know my godson right? You're the one who danced with him?"

"Yes, he's actually the one who invited me to come to the party."

"Oh... Well that's nice of him. And you know, I just want to show my gratitude to you for accompanying him during that night."

"Oh what-"

"So I was thinking as a way to show that gratitude, how about I treat you for lunch?"

"I don't think that would be necessary, I still need to do-"

"Well I insist! You have been a really good person lately to him. And I just want to treat you with the utmost kindness. C'mon!"

Melanie escorts Cyril to her van.
