Back Home

Nighttime came, but Auguste and Margaret are still on the road on their way back to Tarlac. They still have more or less two hours before they arrive, so Auguste decided to ask Margaret about dinner.

"Do you want to have dinner now?" he asked.

Margaret thought about his question. Yes, it's dinnertime already, but she is thinking if they stop by for dinner now, they might get home later than if they just continued driving.

"What if we just take the drive-thru?" she asked instead. "So that we don't have to stop and just continue driving. So that we could go home early." She doesn’t want to delay their trip as it would mean Auguste's rest will be delayed as well.

"Okay," Auguste said, agreeing her suggestion. "I think there's a Jollibee nearby."

"Right! Let's order some Chickenjoy." She smiled mischievously.

Auguste gave her an indifferent scowl.
