Let's Get Married

Chapter 577: I Don't Want My Life to Be like Yours

The girl looks young and is about the same age as Thomas, around 18 or so. She looks at Eunice with bleary eyes, but the next second, she panics and hides behind Thomas, asking, "Is this...?"

Evidently, neither of them expect her to come today. They are underdressed and look like they just had sex.

Eunice is shocked. Thomas never tells her that he is in a relationship. The siblings' family is poor. Eunice drops out from school to work, so that she can pay her mother's medical bills and Thomas' tuition. Thomas understands his sister's sacrifice, so he studies hard and never causes any trouble for her.

But now he has brought a girl home and they just slept together. Eunice turns her gaze away from the girl to avoid further embarrassment. Thomas is a boy after all. She turns around and drags her luggage into her bedroom, saying to the couple who are confounded, "Put on your clothes first."

Thomas watches Eunice enter her room and heaves a sigh of relief. He turns around to look at the girl and says, "Let's go in and clean up."

The girl looks awkward. Entering their room, she complains softly, "Why didn't you tell me your sister was going home? How embarrassing...."

"My sister went on a business trip a while ago and didn't tell me she would be back today. I didn't know!" Thomas is even more dumbfounded than she is. How shameful it is to be seen by his own sister that he is with a girl at home. "Alright, she's seen us anyway. Hurry up and tidy up."

As he speaks, Thomas bends down to pick up the used toilet paper and condoms on the floor. He quickly rubs them into a ball and tosses it into the trash can. He only relaxes when he ties a knot on the trash bag.

Eunice closes the door right after she enters her room. She can't get that unexpected picture out of her head. Looking around in the small room that is less than fifteen square meters, she sighs and sits down on her small single bed. Everything feels so familiar and old.

She has lived in this apartment since she was born for 22 years. Her father died while she was a senior middle-school student. Since then, there is more room in it, and the siblings have been living here until now. She never found it tiny before, but staying with Byan abroad has made her think otherwise.

She laughs self-deprecatingly despite herself. A person's heart might stay the same, but his mind surely can be changed by the environment.
