During this period, she couldn’t look after Brad, as she didn't want Brad to find out about her illness. If she lived at home, Luke would come at any time. And it was likely that her disease was exposed.
And she intended to banish the thought of remarriage from Luke's mind.
Otherwise, Luke would still badger her.
The car was parked downstairs.
Luke asked Brad if he had been to Ruben's house, and Brad nodded.
Ruben asked, "Which type of films do you prefer? Horror, love, or action?"
Eileen said that any type was okay.
In the end, they played a love film, which was tinged with indescribable freshness. And the pictures were also beautiful and refreshing.
When they watched the most exciting part, the doorbell rang. Ruben walked over and opened the door, but there was no one outside.
Shrugging his shoulders, he walked back and sat on the sofa. "Nobody."
Then, the doorbell rang a second time, and Ruben opened the door again.
There was still no one. Then the doorbell rang the third time, fourth time...
"I think it might be a prank by someone."
Ruben felt upset. As he was not in the mood to watch a movie, he slumped on the sofa.
Eileen was thinking.
'Could it be Luke and Brad?’
'But they will not come here for no reason!'
Being interrupted several times, Ruben walked over and silenced the doorbell.
The room finally regained quietness, and they two were immersed in the film again.
However, they were interrupted shortly.
The fire siren sounded.
