Chapter 1715
Rosalynn was deep in thought while Paige and Erica were already yapping away about the old monk
“I don’t get it, Larkin’s teacher clearly wanted to see Larkin, why did he keep avoiding him?” Erica found out that
the old monk was calling Larkin’s name even when he was sick in bed.
She was very confused.
Larkin had been by his side since he was a little boy and even though he called him teacher, they were more like
father and son.
She chatted in the group chat for a bit.
Erica set her phone aside, staring at the wooden ceiling, lost in thought
She wondered how many times Larkin had to come before the old monk would give him the time of day.
Lost in her thoughts, she eventually drifted off to sleep in the quiet atmosphere of the monastery
That night, she had a chill dream.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was about the ancient monastery.
Under a big tree, sunlight filtering through the leaves, shining on the cobblestones
Nuns and the old monk walking together.
She couldn’t make out the old monk’s face, but she knew the way he looked at the nuns was full of love.
Soon, it was time to get up.
The monastery was filled with a dull sound
Enca opened her eyes.
After getting up, she followed a volunteer from another room to the hall.
From a distance, she saw Larkin.
She perked up immediately when she saw him, even though she was feeling groggy from waking up early.
However, Larkin didn’t notice her.
In the past, Larkin could always spot her in a crowd.
Erica was a bit puzzled and followed Larkin’s gaze.
She saw the old monk in the hall.
He was sitting in the middle with some students around him, having a chat.
“Erica, that’s our well beloved monk.” The volunteer from her room whispered to Erica, He’s a good man, but he’s
been under the weather and hardly gets out these days You’re lucky to see him before you leave”
Enca’s gaze returned to Larkin.
By then, Larkin had snapped out of his daze and his eyes met Erica’s across the crowd
Seeing Erica, he gave a small smile.
Enca and Larkin were just volunteers, separated from the monk by the nuns and other volunteers
The old monk was saying something at the front
In the past, Enca didn’t know anything about this type of things
She always felt guilty about her existence so she didn’t seek any protection from people or god.
This was the first time she actually paid attention to the monk’s sermon..
It was not as boring as she had imagined. The old monk was quite amusing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDuring the sermon, Erica glanced at Larkin a few times. He was listening attentively to the old mank
After the sermon, the old monk was surrounded by people and left quickly.
Enca walked up to Larkin and said, “Larkin, shall we go over too?”
Larkin shook his head gently, “No, my teacher already gave me a chance to see him, It would be too much to do so
again”
Enca felt a pang of sadness
But she didn’t know how to console him.
“Let’s go Larkin gently ruffled her hair, Tm fine, don’t be upset.”
“Okay” Enca nodded slightly
She took another look at the direction where the old monk had left, cheering herself up inside
This time, he came out to let Larkin get a glimpse of hum
Next time, he could talk to him!
They both left the hall and the nun appeared out of nowhere
“Are you leaving just like that?” the nun asked
