"However, you may have to wait for another half an hour. I'm sorry, Mister Watte, I...I can only bring it to you when it's convenient to my work schedule. I can't make a special trip for it. Otherwise, it will affect my own work. How about this? Since I was the one who ordered one less milkshake for you, it'll be my treat later."
Eevonne looked at Mister Watte, who was right in front of her, and she looked extremely apologetic.
"Silly girl. Why are you so honest?" Mister Watte smiled and said gently, "Do you know your honesty is really very refreshing? Every time we see you pushing the cart over energetically to deliver things to us, we feel that life is full of vigor and we feel that a ray of sunlight is here again. You are our sunshine. Our little sun! I'll just let you know then. One of the two milkshakes I've ordered is meant for you!"
Eevonne was speechless. At that moment, she was so excited that she was at a loss for words. Finally, she has won the respect and favor of others once again instead of living her life being sensitive and suspicious as before.
She seemed to have found the trick. She accepted the milkshake that Mister Watte gave her, lowered her head, and said happily, "Actually, honesty is the best way to capture all of your hearts one by one."
Mister Watte did not hear what she said. " What did you say?"
Eevonne playfully shook her head. "It's nothing. I'll carry on working now, Mister Watte. Oh, yes, thank you for the milkshake. I'm especially happy today." She practically ran out of that department while pushing her cart. Her laughter, whoever, was left echoing in that department.
