Abigail's Second Life novel Chapter 887

Abigail couldn't help but chuckle.

After several turns, it was finally her chance.

"Well, it seems luck's on my side tonight. Only now it's my turn," she said with a smile and tossed an even number. Luck, as they say, could be a mixed bag.

"What's your choice of song?" Sean wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Mary Grows Old," she replied.

Sean paused, a moment of contemplation passing over him.

It happened to be his favorite track from their cherished collection of records.

Despite three years of marriage, he had never revealed to her his fondness for this particular song.

"Why do you choose this one?" he asked, his smile curious.

"The day you brought that record home, I noticed you listening to it once and then carefully stashing it away. I figured it had to be your favorite since you never played any of the other tracks," she explained.

Sean looked at her in silence for a moment, then gently kissed her cheek. "You've known all along what I liked and never said a word. That's something special."

It wasn't that she could endure it. At that moment, she felt like he didn't fancy her, so she kept quiet.

"Can you sing?" She threw the question at him, a teasing glint in her eyes.

Sean took the microphone and smiled gently. "Of course I can."

Their intimacy was the envy of any couple. It was so tight knit, with a knack for understanding each other's preferences.

They were like aged wine, emitting a subtle yet rich aroma.

The song kicked off, and Sean gripped the microphone and sang with sincerity. His voice was soft, and his gaze was filled with affection as he looked at Abigail.

When it came time for harmony, she seamlessly chimed in.

Once they wrapped up the song, Alfie couldn't resist commenting, "On such a joyous occasion, singing songs about time passing is just too harsh!"

"We're supposed to sing what we like, right? It's not like you're unhappy after our performance," Abigail replied playfully, feigning displeasure.

"You two sang so beautifully that it's making me jealous! I want to swap partners and sing with my girlfriend!" Alfie's envy was clear. Why were they so sweet even when singing a song?

It left him feeling incredibly envious.

Sean really stands out among his friends, doesn't he? Alfie mused.

Then, it was Josh's turn. He sang a love song dedicated to Luna.

As the night progressed, Abigail had a bit to drink and climbed into the car with Sean.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and gently asked, "When you were younger, why did you like this song? I meant to ask you back then, but somehow I forgot."

"It was my parents' love song. I don't know all the details, but I've always been fond of it," Sean said, a touch of nostalgia evident in his voice.
