NOVEL WEB Chapter 18: 18. Flood
Anna heard Dylan's tone and felt that her heart was swayed again. She really couldn't bear to hear it, so she quickly agreed.
Dylan beamed when he heard Anna's answer. "That's great! Do you need me to help you now?"
"No, I just need to rest a bit. Uh, I'll reimburse you for the meal ingredients…" Anna just realized that she forgot to prepare the ingredients to bring to Dylan's place. Now that he was here, she couldn't possibly go to the space and took them out.
It would scare him.
There were some food ingredients in the refrigerator, but if Dylan were to see the content inside, how would she explain if she were to give him more than what he saw there?
This is a bit difficult.
"Don't worry about that. I still have a lot from what you have given these past few days." Dylan shook his head. He walked to the kitchen and poured a glass familiarly before handing it to Anna. "Drink some water."
"Thanks…" Anna took the glass and drank the water.
This felt really familiar.
In all honesty, Anna was friends with Dylan for a long period of time, so they knew each other quite well.
If they were not going to different high school, they might still be close friends by now.
"Meow~."
There was a meowing and scratching from the door.
Dylan helplessly stood up and walked to the door. The moment he opened the door, Kitty ran inside and rushed towards Anna.
"Meow~." Kitty meowed coquettishly.
Anna's heart melted instantly. She bent down and patted Kitty. With her current physical condition, she wouldn't be able to lift Kitty up, so she didn't bother to try it. "You're walking quite fast, Kitty."
"She's only fast when she's in front of you," Dylan complained and looked up at Anna. "Kitty really likes Sister Anna."
"Meow~." Kitty meowed as if agreeing with Dylan's words.
Dylan looked at Kitty and really wanted to slap this cat's buttocks. This annoying cat has completely forgotten who took care of him in daily basis and only remembered Anna.
Tsk, white eyed wolf cat!
Anna giggled. "That's because Kitty remember that I'm the best sister."
Anna rubbed Kitty's chin and laughed lightly. She liked this cat so much. If not because of her father's opposition, she would have been the one to bring Kitty home back then.
Dylan shook his head lightly, but he still smiled when he saw Anna.
This scene felt really good to see.
"Shall I bring dinner here?"
"Please."
That day, the two of them have dinner together in Anna's place. It was very warm and nice.
…
The next day, Anna checked the chat group to see the progress. She was stunned when she saw that the people from the second floor was already busy pinging the chat owner.
…
Garden Apartment Chat Group
201: @1801, the water is rising by more than one meter overnight. It's already approaching the second floor by now. What should we do?
202: @1801, the rain is not stopping.
201: Help!
301: So fast?
302: Does it mean that we have to move too?
101: We have only move to 401, do we have to be prepared to move again so soon?
1801: @201, @202, do you have any relatives you can stay with for the time being?
201: No, my relatives are in different buildings. In this building, there's no one I know.
202: I don't have anyone either.
1801: You can either ask for the neighbor to stay for the time being or if you're willing, you can stay in the empty room in the 401 with the other family.
202: What if the fourth floor is also flooded?
201: Yes, the rain is getting even fiercer and the water is rising very quickly.
1801: The only other empty room is on the 8th floor, room number 802. I'll give you the key, but you all need to learn to coexist with each other and anyone who made trouble will be kicked out of the room directly, understand?
201: Yes, I can accept it.
202: Ok!
1801: Come to the 18th to get the key.
…
The water level is rising by more than 1 meter in one night?
Anna looked at the window where the rain hadn't stopped. Suddenly, she had an ominous premonition.
This wouldn't be the start of an apocalypse, right?
