That was life. Not everything could go one's way and regrets were precisely what made life unforgettable.
Soon, a month passed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs the temperature rose, the snow began to melt. Though it was cold, Irene was excited.
Her tutor complimented her progress and reassured her that she would surely get into Turlington University if she maintained her performance during the exam.
Apart from that, her birthday was approaching.
Eighteen felt like a turning point in her life, it was a moment where one transformed into an adult overnight.
"Mr. Lucas, after dinner tomorrow, I need to head home." Irene started discussing the schedule for the next day. "We will meet up at the cinema, okay?" "Why the cinema?" She hesitated for a moment. "I thought I told you that I will tell you my secret on my birthday?" Lucas had not forgotten about it, but he did not understand why she had to tell him the secret in a cinema. "You can only tellthe secret in a cinema?" "Not really. I just didn't want to scare you. If we go to the cinema, maybe you can distract yourself with the movie." He wondered for a moment what secrets she could be keeping that could scare him.
"Mr. Lucas, I've never been to a cinema before," she confessed. "I want to try going to one. I don't mind watching any type of movie; I'm just a little scared to go by myself." "What's there to be scared of? What ttomorrow night?" he asked, hinting that he had agreed.

Irene unlocked her phone to look for the closest cinema near the Woods' mansion. "Why don't we go here? There happens to be a movie showing at seven." Lucas took her phone and glanced at the screen.
It was an action movie, and after checking the nof the film, he agreed. "This one, then! Can't you just tellthat secret of yours after twelve tonight? Do we have to wait until tomorrow night? What if something comes up on my side?" "What could you possibly have to do? I'm with you every single day, and you never have anything to do," Irene said as Lucas did not even leave the South Block to have New Year's dinner with his family.
"Why can't you just tellearlier? I wasn't curious' before, and now, you got my attention." He stared into her eyes. "What kind of secret can you keep that's going to scare me? You are exaggerating, aren't you? If I am not surprised at all tomorrow, I'm going to punch you in the head." She immediately covered her head. "I don't know if you are going to be surprised. It's better if you are not! In any case, I can only tell you tomorrow. My grandma said that I can only reveal this secret after I turn eighteen. Telling you tomorrow is already cutting it close." et "Alright! If it's what your grandma told you, I won't push you anymore! Just cby later tomorrow." Lucas had wanted to ask Irene to rest for the day, but he knew that she would remain in her rented apartment, therefore, it would be better for her to cover and have her lessons instead. "Why? I can cto cook breakfast for you in the morning. What if you starve?" Irene started gathering her belongings, getting ready to leave.
"You can sleep in. I will order food if I'm hungry," he said. "You can cover when it's tfor the lessons." "Thank you, Mr. Lucas, but it's fine. I have a strict biological clock, and I wake up at half past six every morning Once I wake up, I won't be able to get back to sleep." Irene did not have a habit of sleeping in. "My birthday just means that I'm one year older. It's not that special of an occasion."
