Shi Ye stopped the car to wait for the traffic light and turned around to see, while Kenny pointed at the people behind Gloria in the photo and showed it to him, but Shi did not spot anything strange.
“Those were passersby.”
“But their faces were unfamiliar.” Kenny was serious.
“Uh...what?” Shi put on a puzzled face.
With a second thought, Shi was shocked. Could it be possible that Kenny memorized every people ever showed up on the photos sent back here every day?
“Tell them to check on those people. Keep eyes on them.” Kenny spoke in his deep voice.
“Yes, sir.”Shi replied to him and started the car again.
They arrived at Kenny’s apartment, and Shi left after Kenny was in.
Kenny turned on the lights and went straight to the bedroom.
He opened the door and Gloria’s photos were everywhere inside the room.
No matter clear or fuzzy, all the photos sent back to him in the last few months were in here.
Having taken off his coat, Kenny rolled the sleeves slowly and then connected his phone to the printer to print today’s new photos.
...
Gloria was awoken at midnight by noisy music.
She opened her eyes in the dark and lay on her bed blankly for several minutes before learning the noise came from the neighbor.
Getting up from the bed, Gloria moved to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain to check.
There was only a fence between her house and her neighbor’s, so when she could saw the campfire and the people who were surrounding it.
The fire was very bright, and Gloria recognized a few teenagers who were those whistled at her before.
This neighborhood was far from downtown, except for retired old people, there were Gloria and those teenagers, so it was not hard to recognize them.
It seemed that no other neighbors intended to stop them. Even the noise they made was so huge and that it could not be possible to only affect Gloria alone.
As a single pregnant foreign woman, Gloria would not look for trouble, too, so she went back to bed and covered herself tightly with the quilt to resist the noise but it was still useless.
Until the dawn, the party was likely to be over.
With no doubt, Gloria had a terrible sleep last night. She made two slices of toast with a sleepy face and was about to boil two eggs for breakfast when her door was knocked.
She did not want to be interrupted under such circumstances, but still, Gloria opened the door slightly with a foot blocking the door from the inside.
It was knocked by a young girl wearing a pink sweater on the top and a short pants that could not even cover her butt.
“Hey! Neighbor, how you doing!” The girl said hello first.
“Can I help you?”Gloria still blocked the door and had no intention to let her in.
They watched each other as they spoke. The young girl put her eyes on Gloria’s belly and then back to her face again.
“Oh, here’s the thing. Do you mind if I use your bathroom? Cause too many friends in mine, you know. Anyway, I’m kind of in a hurry. So, please?”
Gloria hesitated but then she refused the young girl.
“Oh, I would love to. But my husband is in the bathroom right now, and he has a... well, let’s call it a pooping issue, so as long as you could wait for like, let’s see...about one hour? That’s fine by me.”
“Wow...”The young girl put on a shocked face and covered her mouth.“Well, thank you, but I guess I’ll pass.”
She turned around to leave and Gloria also closed the door right after that quickly.
Gloria peaked out the door and found the girl walked to a boy. She did not know what they were talking about, but the boy looked at her house when they did.
Seeing his eyesight, Gloria shook a bit though she knew they could not see her right now.
That boy could not be a nice, friendly neighbor, and the girl was not here to borrow her bathroom.
She was here most likely to check whether Gloria lived by herself.
Gloria hated to put people in a guilty position in the first place, but teenagers at these ages could do anything, let alone the fact that these kids were suspicious.
Back in the kitchen, Gloria had no mood to eat breakfast at all.
Worries were filled in her mind, and thinking of that, she got more and more anxious.
Finally, Gloria decided to move out for a few days to stay away from them.
Those people next door should fall asleep now, and if she could avoid meeting them if she went out.
With a pack of clothes, she just left the door at once.
Gloria locked the door carefully and turned around to check there was no one in the surroundings before walking into the yard.
But when she just got out of the courtyard, she suddenly found a boy standing against the fence.
He had blond hair and blue eyes. The brown skin of his showed he was under the sun for the long term. He was tall and skinny but had an immature face, which showed his age could not be over twenty. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
“Hey there.” The boy supported himself with one hand against the fence.
Gloria was startled by his sudden appearance but calmed down soon. She gave him a strained smile as a response and then turned around to another direction in a hurry but the boy followed her and he opened his mouth again.
“Slow down, pretty. Don’t you remember me? We met yesterday.”
While Gloria just pretended to not hear and quickened her pace, but still the boy could not let her go. He caught her up in a few steps and then grasped her clothes tightly.
“Don’t you hear me? You don’t speak English or what. Where are you from?”
