While Erwin talked, Dylan Johnson concentrated on taking notes. He raised his head from time to time, watching Erwin. The conversation lasted half an hour, and Dylan put down his pen, then sat up straight and looked over at Frederick.
"This is a good sign, of course, at least now Erwin can talk again." Dylan smiled satisfied: "Um, next time, maybe you should pay attention to a few points related to daily life. Just like before, don't eat spicy food, drink alcohol, smoke... All of these are not good for the recovery of the vocal cords."
"I will pay attention." Frederick replied, "Erwin doesn't have any more problems, does he?"
“Congratulations to you two, up until now, Erwin has been considered a complete success!” Dylan Johnson leaned back, “Ah, Erwin. Franky said he wanted to meet him for a meal. Do you two have free time this afternoon?"
Erwin looked at Frederick because he had to go to the hospital today so he had to push some schedules down to the afternoon. If you stay for lunch at noon, you will definitely not be able to return to the company in time. Erwin shook his head, he said to Dylan: "I'm afraid not today. Is it okay for the weekend?”
Dylan didn't hesitate too much, maybe he didn't have a hospital schedule on the weekend, so he happily agreed. Frederick and Erwin got out of the hospital, and their mood was much more comfortable, it was not just a matter of Erwin's voice. Erwin held Frederick's hand tightly, waiting until he returned to the company, he did not let go.
"I went to Mrs. Vanessa's office this afternoon." Hearing Erwin says that Frederick was slightly taken aback. These days, almost every day Erwin's figure is in front of him, which has soon become a habit. Today Erwin said again, that he will go to Vanessa's office, Frederick temporarily did not know what to say.
Erwin leaned over to Frederick, giving him a real kiss on the cheek: "Anyway, I'm teacher Vanessa's student. It's not good not to see her for a long time. Also, I have to tell Vanessa that I was able to talk.”
Frederick, though nostalgic, still nodded. Both of them were adults, and both he and Frederick had their own jobs. Work and love inherently do not need to be chosen, as a good partner, he needs to support the other's work. Frederick opened the divider between the driver's seat and the back seat, then hugged Erwin and sat on his lap.
Erwin took the initiative to suck Frederick's lower lip, the sound of saliva reverberating throughout the narrow space. When Erwin finished the kiss, his lips were red and swollen, wet with water, and his chest heaved up and down as if lacking oxygen. Erwin's cheeks flushed red, and Frederick knew he wasn't much better than Erwin himself. He stroked Erwin's thin back, letting him lean on his shoulder.
"I'll be back early tonight," Frederick said quietly. Erwin shook his head again, he knew Frederick had a lot of unfinished business from this morning. Leaving early is not necessary, nor does he need someone to take care of him.
"No need, Frederick." Erwin kissed Frederick on the lips again for a moment: "You'll just let Ned come pick me up."
Frederick thought for a moment and then agreed. Today, in addition to meeting Richard, he has many unfinished documents, especially near the end of the year like this. Frederick sadly saw Erwin off the car, then returned to the company.
Erwin retracted his smile, then slowly walked up to Vanessa's office. Working in the office Vanessa is not too strict in terms of time, is a great place to relax and grow. Even Liz, who is always working hard at timekeeping, takes a break from time to time, going here and there, just like today.
When Erwin entered the office, he was nowhere to be seen. Everyone here loved him, and as soon as he saw him, he greeted him.
“Erwin, you came at the right time.” A rather tall guy, wearing a pink shirt, walked over. His long hair is tied up in a ponytail. “Liz didn't go to the office today, but Vanessa went to a relative's house, I'm stuck with something wrong in the design. Vanessa said you have the ability to help us…”
“Ah, but if it's not convenient for you,” said the man, shoving a notebook into Erwin's hand: “You write it down slowly. Sorry, I don't know special symbols for the disabled, but I'm patient enough. As long as you're willing to help me!"
After saying that, he used his sparkling eyes to stare at Erwin. Like, if Erwin refused, he would immediately cry. Erwin isn't too sweet either, he smiled and put down the notebook. Then, he saw the disappointed look of the other person.
"Hacket, I'll help you." Erwin narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly.
Hacket's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears. At this moment, another voice rang out, it was Olivia. She leaned over the computer screen, leaning close to Erwin's face.
“Did I hear it wrong? Erwin, are you able to talk again?”
Olivia was agitated, her voice echoing through the office. There were less than ten people in the office now, but they all stood up, looking at Olivia in disbelief. Olivia felt eyes on her, and she jumped. After that, Oliva returned to her usual innocent look.
"Everyone doesn't look at me, just now, I heard Erwin telling the truth!" Olivia awkwardly let go. She sat back in her chair, waiting for Erwin to explain to her.
"Hi, guys." Erwin captured a teasing smile, he said seriously: "Getting to know people again, I'm Erwin Wilson, an amateur designer."
The surprise came so suddenly, that whole day, that everyone flocked to Erwin to ask questions. Even Hacket forgot his purpose to find Erwin, he quickly texted Liz and Vanessa James to talk about this thing. Unfortunately, Liz was traveling with her lover. And Vanessa is too busy to come and see everyone.
It wasn't until the next day that Vanessa took the time to make a trip to the office. Erwin no longer followed Frederick to the company, he took an order of relative value then went to Vanessa's office and worked with everyone.
Soon it was the weekend, and Franky James's date also arrived. Rarely did Frederick get a good night's sleep? The past few days, Frederick was extremely busy, and Erwin had to bring dinner to him. Early in the morning, the sunlight crept through the window. Erwin gently got out of bed, wanting to draw the curtain so that Frederick could sleep a little longer.
It's just, that Frederick's biological clock is so accurate, just a small movement of Erwin made him open his eyes. Frederick pulled Erwin's arm, letting Erwin lie on top of him. The two lay together in silence for a few more minutes, the morning reaction making Erwin's whole body heat up.
"Don't move." Frederick hoarsely patted Erwin's ass softly. "It'll be fine in a moment!"
Of course, Erwin did not believe Frederick's "for a moment". He had said that many times. The end result was that the two of them stuck together, and it took an hour or two to finish. Today the two of them also have a date with Franky James and Dylan. Erwin doesn't want to be late for this reason.
Erwin bit Frederick's throat lightly, causing him to groan loudly.
“Wake up, Frederick. Let's go out in the garden to relax a bit!" Erwin caressed Frederick's cheek with his chin. Frederick and Erwin's physique is slightly different, Erwin only needs to shave once a week, but still only unclear. As for Frederick, he had to shave every day, otherwise, he would be very jagged by the second day.
Frederick sighed, he was now in his thirties but felt that he couldn't rest. Frederick hugged Erwin for another five minutes then sat up, “Erwin, wait for Christmas, you and I go on a trip together!”
Referring to travel, Erwin suddenly remembered the sunflower field that he wished to see in his previous life.
"North America." Erwin let out a gasp, then he saw the curious look on Frederick's face. Erwin suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "I want to see the sea of ​​sunflowers."
Or rather, Erwin really wanted to fulfill his unfinished wish in his previous life. Frederick nodded, showing he had memorized it. Frederick knew well, behind that there was a separate story belonging to Erwin's secret. But who doesn't have his own secret, he won't ask unless Erwin wants to tell.
After breakfast, Erwin and Frederick walked around the garden, enjoying the early morning sunlight together. But then the moment that belonged to the two of them passed very quickly, at noon, Frederick drove Erwin himself to the rendezvous point. Coincidentally, that place was the Sophia restaurant.
Before entering the room, Erwin heard Dylan Johnson's voice. His voice was so earnest now.
“Franky, taste this cocoa pudding.” Dylan Johnson took a small spoon and brought it to Franky James' lips: "I remember this is your favorite."
Franky pursed his lips and refused to taste, he pushed Dylan's hand away: "Let me eat it myself."
"Don't always act so considerate." Franky sighed: “I told you, we start again. You've never abandoned me, and I won't even think about it."
“Dylan, if you continue to be as kind and loving to me as you are now, I will have a hard time forgetting the past.”
Dylan was completely flustered, and he put down his spoon with a loud bang. “I… I'm sorry. Franky, would you like to try the mango pudding? I just tried this dish, I think you will definitely like it."
Before Franky could reply, the dining-room door was pushed open from the outside.
