Chapter 613: Afterparty Brunch
Chapter 613: Afterparty Brunch
12:24 PM, Saturday, February 6th.
It was already the next day after the late-night party at the Pedrarruna Manor.
The party after the dinner started off normal and quiet with everyone playing a few party games like telephone pictionary, mafia, charades, and others. But after a couple of hours and a few bottles of wine emptied, the alcohol started to kick in, and the party started to get a little crazy.
At a certain moment, someone turned on the music in the max volume and everyone started to dance and have fun.
In such a way, the group of friends got drunk and had fun until 5 am. As everyone was drunk, Theo offered the guest rooms for everyone to sleep.
Some people were so drunk that Theo had to carry them to bed.
By 6 am, while the rest of the city was starting their day, Theo and his friends were only falling at that moment after spending the whole night partying and having fun.
In the darkroom on the third floor of the manor, Theo slowly opened his eyes as he woke up.
It was an extremely rare day for him as he woke up past 12 pm, but after partying the whole night with his friends, he gave himself the day off to relax and sleep in.
But after waking up, Theo couldn't stay in bed, so he slowly got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.
15 minutes later, he left the bathroom wearing only a towel around his hips after he tooka shower. He put on some comfy clothes and exited his bedroom.
As expected, the house was extremely quiet as he headed to the kitchen.
Everyone was still deep in sleep.
But he knew that they would wake up soon, and they would be as hungry as he was as well, so when he arrived in the kitchen he started preparing a filling meal for everyone.
But just after 10 minutes since he started working, Ayia and Shizuka entered the kitchen with sleepy faces.
The two of them hadn't drunk much at the party, so they didn't have a problem waking up. They were still a little tired, but their hungry bellies woke them up.
"Ayia! Shizuka! Good afternoon!" Theo exclaimed with a smile.
"Quieter, please." Shizula said as she massaged her temples.
"Good afternoon, babe." Ayia replied with a sleepy smile.
"I'm sure both of you are hungry. Why don't you help me cook this meal, as it will be much faster this way." Theo suggested.
The two girls readily agreed with him and started working immediately.
As expected, in the next 20 minutes, everyone started waking up as well.
And with the new additional help, Theo and the others managed to cook a whole meal in a short time.
They were serving the dishes on the dining table when Theo asked, "Who's still asleep?"
"I think Max, Lauren, Sam, and June are still asleep." Aurora replied.
"Let's wake them up, or they will sleep until night." Sayuri suggested.
"Yeah, let's wake them up!" Kumiko exclaimed with a mischievous smile. "Come on!"
Just like that, a few people went on the journey to wake up the four sleepyheads. Theo let out a happy smile as he imagined the hell of wake-up the four sleepyheads were in.
5 minutes later, everyone was gathered at the dining table.
With highlights on the four new additions that had red eyes and sleepy faces.
They still were a little confused after being awakened as if they were in a military drill and immediately dragged to a table filled with delicious and steaming dishes.
"Let's dive in, guys." Theo announced as he started by serving a cup of coffee for himself. Theo and the others had cooked the menu of a brunch for everyone.
Breakfast + Lunch was the perfect combination for a meal after a night of partying.
As everyone enjoyed the delicious meal that Theo, Ayia, and the others prepared, they started getting sober and livelier.
"What are your plans for the rest of the weekend?" Sayuri suddenly asked.
"I have to work at the restaurant today and tomorrow." Kumiko replied.
"Well, most of us have shifts at the restaurant this weekend." Theo added as he took a sip of his coffee.
"Not us, Max and I have our day off tomorrow. This means we will have three days to do absolutely nothing." Lauren giggled.
"Ahh, I'm so envious of you two! I love it when my day off is next to the day that the restaurant closes." Ayia commented.
"Oh, yes, that's the best!"
"June, please have mercy on me! Place my next day off on Wednesday or Sunday!" "Mine as well!"
""
June could only shake her head helplessly before replying in a calm voice, "The Day Off Schedule is completely randomized by a computer program to ensure that I won't favor anyone. But if you present to me a valid reason, I can approve this minor change."
"Ah, that's a bummer."
"Yeah."
"But at least, it is fair."
Aurora smiled before changing the subject, "Later this afternoon, Theo and I will pick up the new member of our family."
"Really?"
"Who?"
"..."
Everyone asked curiously.
"Maya will have a sister as we'll be adopting a new cat." Aurora smiled happily.
"Yeah, this one is a beautiful white cat. She is a little old, but after hearing her story, we couldn't stop ourselves from falling in love with her." Theo commented.
"Really? What is her story?" Sam asked.
"Well, first of all..." Aurora started talking about Angel's story that due to her blindness, no
one wanted to adopt her even after years.
At the end of the story, the girls had tears in their eyes with Angel's sad story.
"I want to meet Angel!"
"Yeah!"
"Angel is my favorite cat now!"

Just like that, Theo and his friends had a lovely meal together on that Saturday afternoon.
When everyone finished eating, they started leaving for their own houses.
Vivian, Carolla, and Umaru went home after sleeping over for two nights.
One by one, everyone left until Ayia, Theo, and Aurora were left.
Ayia wanted to accompany the siblings to the adoption center, so Shizuka went home alone.
As they left the cleaning for Sylph, the three of them lazily sat down on the living room couch. After eating so much, they didn't want to do anything for a while.
"We should start getting ready." Theo commented with his body lazily stretched over the
couch.
"You say that, but why are you still like that?" Aurora asked.
"You're the same!" Theo protested.
Ayia looked at the bickering siblings and shook her head helplessly, "We have a shift at the restaurant, Theo. So, if you want to pick up Angel without arriving late for work, we should
leave soon."
"Okay, okay. I'll get up." Theo said with a defeated voice as he slowly got up from the couch.
In such a way, 20 minutes later, the three of them left the manor and drove to the adoption
center.
