Chapter 731
“Now, it’s time for the other package.” Cayenne muttered and went to the storage room. She only planned to take a look for now and deal with it the next day since she only needed to leave for university in the afternoon.
“Do you need help?” Stefan asked even though he had unfinished work himself. “It won’t take long if we do it together.”
“I’ll just check what is inside the package. I won’t take long.”
“Okay. I’ll take a shower first.”
That night, Cayenne found what Monet sent her. There was a bunch of stuff inside the package and all of them came from international brand names. ‘Make use of them to help others.’ Cayenne frown at the small note taped under the cover of the package. As far as she knew, well-known people have their own foundation or sometimes they find a foundation that they want to support and stick on that.
Not wasting another second, she sent Monet a message and waited for the woman to respond. However, instead of replying to her message, Monet called right away.
.....
“Do you like them?” Monet asked excitedly. “Some of them came from my friends.”
“Why are you giving them away? Don’t you have your own foundation that might need these?”
“Well, I love designing clothes and going for trips here and there. I love to hang out with friends and shop. Except for these things, I don’t want to do anything else.”
“So, you never joined a fund-raising event?”
“Never. I think it’s boring and I’d rather spend time with my pen and sketchbook compared to that. Whenever I get invitation, I will send someone to go in my behalf and make donation. I’m not really like you and Stefan or Travis.”
“Well, I totally understand. Unlike you, I have so much free time which is why things come to mind and I decide to act on it rather than wait. Now that I have means to help, I’ll do the best I can to make it possible.”
“That’s really great! Anyway, just let me know once you ran out of clothes to sell. I will ask the people I know to declutter.”
“Thanks Monet. Can you send me the name of the people who owns these items? I’ll post something later in my social media account.”
“Sure. I’ll send you a message later. Also, have you discussed the photoshoot schedule with Stefan?”
“Not yet.”
“Alright. Let me know once you are done and if you want to change the schedule. I want to make sure that we’d be able to come up with solution if something happens.”
“Thanks again Monet.”
“You’re welcome, Yen. I’ll see you soon.”
“Yes. See you.”
When the call ended, Cayenne took a deep breath from the overwhelming emotions. She never thought that Monet would entrust her something so huge when they just met not long ago. “Many kids will be helped because of her kindness.”
Upstairs, instead of taking a shower, Stefan was held up by Thomas who called him as well. The latter seemed trouble about something and he kept asking if Stefan had ever dreamed of something that never happened.
“What nonsense are you asking? Of course, if you dream about it, that means it doesn’t happen yet.”
Thomas scratched his head and thought how to say the things in his mind. He felt like Stefan wasn’t getting the point that he meant. “Look, the dream that I am talking about is not the dream that you wish to have. It’s the dream. The one you get at night. It could be a nightmare, too.”
“So? What’s this dream about?”
“Sometimes, what we think during the day will come to haunt us at night, right? Or something that didn’t happen before will come in your dream or maybe it happened before already.”
“What exactly are you talking about?”
Thomas poked the inner side of his mouth with his tongue. He wasn’t sure if he wanted to say this. “Well, there’s this woman and I wasn’t interested with her romantically. I didn’t even think of having sex with her.”
“And then?”
“Then, I don’t know. I just...hell! She came into my dream.”
“You never dreamed of her before?”
“No. Yes. I mean, I did. But the dreams I had of her wasn’t really interesting. Just random stuff that normal friends would do.”
“Friends?”
“Stefan!”
“I’m listening bro. I just wanted to make sure that I am getting the right picture.”
“You don’t have to picture anything!” Thomas exasperatedly said because he felt frustrated right now. He didn’t have anyone else to talk to because Travis didn’t reply to him. If Stefan didn’t reply, he wouldn’t have anyone to chat right now. He couldn’t really tell Monet about it because it involved her. “If I’m dreaming of doing lewd things with someone, does that mean I like her? That’s that.”
“No. Men dream about anyone they wanted to do that.”
“I’m not like you.”
“Whatever.”
“So, you are saying that I don’t like her and maybe I am just sexually frustrated?”
“Could be.”
The two of them kept talking about this until Cayenne came inside. Stefan told Thomas that they’d talk about it later because his wife has arrived. In the end, Stefan didn’t know who Thomas meant and the latter didn’t really get the answer to his question.
Thomas wasn’t sure if Stefan was just fooling him or if he was serious with his answer. [So, I don’t like Monet and was just using her image out of frustration? That never happened before.} Thomas thought as he put down his phone on the table. Things kept coming to his head and he wasn’t sure what was happening to him. [Did something happen that night?] If there’s anyone who can answer his question, that would be Monet. However, he didn’t have the courage to ask her such nonsense. She might even hate him for thinking such a thing. “Damn it!”
