“Are you going, then?” asked Jackson.
Serenity nodded. “But…” She hesitated for a moment, “Do you want to go with me?”
He pondered for a moment and said, “I have to work overtime on New Year’s Eve. My boss said he would triple the pay. Why don’t you give me the address? I’ll go on New Year’s Day. ” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Okay,” said Serenity. But after that, she hit her lip and said hesitantly, “nut some of my relatives might give you attitude. Just ignore them.”
Jackson smiled, “Don’t worry, I don’t care.”
She was the only one he cared about..
The closer it got to the New Year, the fewer people there were on the streets. Many people had gone back to their hometown to spend the New Year with their family.
Serenity’s mother’s maiden home was in a small town outside Solaria. It was not very far from the city, only about an hour and a half away by bus. Therefore, tickets were not that big of a problem.
When Serenity booked the tickets, she told Jackson, “Jack, give me your ID. I’ll book a ticket for you.”
She realized that she had never seen his ID before.
“I’ve already booked a ticket,” said Jackson.
Serenity did not pursue the matter. She took out the scarf that she had been knitting and wrapped it around Jackson.
Is it too short?” she asked.
“No, it’s just right,” he said. The scarf seemed to carry her scent. Wearing the scarf made him feel like he was surrounded by her scent.
“Then I’ll finish it up later so that you can wear it on New Year’s Eve. The gloves will take a bit longer, probably until after the New Year,” she said.
Lisa was originally planning to spend the New Year with Serenity, but after hearing that Serenity planned to go back to her mother’s hometown, she could not help feeling a little worried for her.
“You’re going alone?”
“Jack will be there on New Year’s Day to keep me company,” said Serenity.
“But those relatives on your mother’s side…” Lisa was aware of how ruthless they were when Serenity got into the accident.
“I want to see my grandmother. I haven’t visited her once after I was released from prison. I want to see how she’s doing.” said Serenity. Her grandmother was the only person she cared about over there.
“If anything happens, call me. I’ll be at home over the New Year,” said Lisa.
“Nothing will happen.” Serenity chuckled. “I’m going back to my mother’s hometown, not going to war.”
“Who knows what those relatives of yours will do,” Lisa muttered.
“Don’t worry. I’m just going there to see my grandmother, stay for two days and then come back,” said Serenity.
On New Year’s Eve, Serenity departed early in the moming. Before leaving, she reminded Jackson to be careful “I will,” Jackson said with a smile.
