What I didn't expect was that when I walked downstairs of the company with an umbrella borrowed from a colleague, I saw Shawna parked her car on the side of the road. Did the sun rise from the west? I subconsciously looked up at the sky, only to see dark clouds and drizzling rain.
I was just about to open the driver's door when Shawna said, "I'll drive today, you sit in the back. We have to pick up Evan later, he gets carsick easily." It turned out that she was here to pick up Evan who had just finished working out. My company is near that gym, so I was the one who was taken along.
The car quickly drove across the street, and I saw Evan standing at the gym door waving at us from a distance. There were three boys of the same age beside him. After the car stopped in front of Evan, he sat in the passenger seat and said happily, "Sister Shawna, please take some of my good friends home later."
Before he finished speaking, a boy opened the door of the back seat. When he saw me , he was stunned and said, "Why is there someone in the back?" The scene was a little awkward. Evan then realized that I was sitting in the back seat. He pretended to be surprised and said, " Simon , I didn't know you were in the car. How about I take a taxi home with my friends and not trouble Sister Shawna ."
However , Shawna did not hesitate to hold down his hand that was about to unbuckle the seat belt, turned around and winked at me and whispered, " Simon , take a taxi back by yourself." Just like that, I was kicked out of the car before I even got comfortable in the seat.
Fortunately, the weather was good, and the rain stopped when Shawna Chen's taillights disappeared from my sight. At least I didn't feel as embarrassed as last time. At this time, my boss called and said that my job transfer application had been approved and I could go to work at the Beijing headquarters next month.
In fact, the head office has sent me several invitations in the past two years, but I declined such a good job opportunity because I couldn't bear to leave Shawna. Fortunately, I finally came to my senses and it's not too late.
