Chapter 1609 Sending gifts
Manuel arranged the pillows, "Lie down when you are tired, the fan is on."
"Thank you."
Angelica didn't say another word about it but didn't lie down either, first she felt she was too sweaty and was afraid of stinking up the sheets, after all she was trying to make a good impression on her brother.
The second was that this was the boys' dormitory, and it was not convenient for her to rest here not only with Pacino but also with two strange boys.
While Manuel went to boil water, Angelica sat restlessly alone.
Pacino, spent a long time digging in his closet and finally put a bag of snacks in front of Angelica.
"Here, these are all the snacks that Pacino's brother usually puts aside and I don't want to eat them, so I'll leave them all for you."
The bag was so full that had it been in the past, Angelica's eyes would have lit up, but unfortunately she was on a diet and had to restrain herself from eating them, even though she was tempted. Then she smiled, laughed and then shook her head, "Pacino, keep them for yourself, I don't need them."
At these words, a look of disappointment appeared in Pacino's eyes.
"Angelica, all this is a special gift from me to you, don't you want it?"
"Yes." Angelica nodded, "I can't eat too many snacks."
With that she lowered her eyes, too embarrassed to refuse him again.
Pacino noticed that Angelica he had met this time had lost a lot of weight again compared to the last time, her whole body looked much thinner, and he had a feeling that in a while that round, cute little girl would be gone.
The thought that it was all because of her made Pacino uncomfortable.
"Angelica, although it's not healthy to eat too many snacks, it's okay to have a few now and then.... If you don't believe me, how about I eat with you?"
The girl's hobby was eating, and now that she had to give up her hobby completely, Pacino was really heartbroken.
Angelica looked up at Pacino and glared at him for a long time before saying, "So, I'll take the snacks with me." "Really?"
"Yes."
"Good, then you can have it all." Pacino could not have been happier to hear that she was willing to accept.
Manuel over there had finished boiling water, poured her a glass and returned to set it on the table, and said nothing when he saw the bag of snacks Pacino had packed.
"By the way Angelica, why did you come here all of a sudden today, did you miss us?"
At the mention of this, Angelica thought about the purpose of her visit today-she had come to bring Michela and Genara's gift.
She shook her head and looked at Manuel again : "Manuel, my two roommates asked me to bring you a gift."
"Roommates?"
The movements of his hands stopped for a moment. : "What kind of gift?"
"I-I don't know."
"Is it the two boxes I just brought in?"
"Yes."
- When you asked me to take these boxes, I still thought: what is it? After all, our Angelica has a completely different taste in choosing things. Who would have known that you came for gifts from your neighbors. Among the packages there is nothing from Livia.
"Livia? No, Livia has been so busy studying lately that she and I have hardly seen each other."
Hearing that Livia was absorbed in her studies, Pacino smiled haughtily and changed the subject, "So it's from the other two roommates for Manuel?"
"Yes."
"Oh!"
The two roommates across from him, who were pretending to read, couldn't help but get up and come to join the fun when they heard this. "Sister, your neighbors like Manuel."
Hearing this, Angelica's face blushed and she did not respond.
"Look how much charisma he has, he is so charming that even his sister's roommates are not spared."
Pacino was about to open his present in front of everyone when Angelica thought of something and suddenly intervened to stop him.
"Pacino."
"Yes?" Pacino looked up, "What is it?"
"This, it's a gift for Manuel from my two roommates."
Pacino froze for a moment and quickly replied, knowing what Angelica meant.
The gift for Manuel had to be opened by Manuel himself, after all, the gift was not for him, and Pacino quickly raised his hand.
"I'm sorry, Angelica, I didn't mean to, it's just that there are too many girls who give Manuel gifts, and usually he doesn't accept them, but those girls try to get them for us, and Manuel doesn't want them, and they won't take them back, so eventually we have to open them."
"Yes, yes." The two roommates echoed him, "We've gotten used to it, it's nice to be in the same dorm as your brother, we're always on reception, some girls give us chocolates, some give us wallets, some give us food, but your brother never accepts them, so we take advantage of it."
Angelica was stunned to hear, "Is that possible?
Angelica thought, if the gift he had given her was treated this way by strangers, she would be heartbroken.
- Angelica, don't think too much. Manuel is forced to refuse. Countless girls give him these gifts. If he accepts each of them, do you think he will have time for other things? You can't accept one gift and you can't accept another?
It wouldn't be fair to the other girls either, so it would be more fair for all of them not to accept."
Angelica was comforted by Pacino's words.
It did not seem possible to accept them all; after all, her brother did not live for them, so it was only fair that she did not accept them all.
However, it is very unfortunate if a carefully prepared gift does not fall into the hands of the recipient.
"What were you thinking about?"
Manuel's hand came up and rubbed Angelica's head: " - Don't worry so much, these are strangers. If you give me a gift, I will take it very seriously."
"Oh."
Manuel and Pacino's neighbors began joking animatedly:
- Who would have thought you were capable of such tenderness!"
- That's what we found out! And I thought Manuel wasn't interested in women at all."
Inexplicably, Pacino i felt a little strange and was a little unhappy, saying, "Go away, go away, what are you talking about?"
Angelica blushed and said, "So what the brother means is that you don't want this gift today?"
"Yes."
Manuel nodded.
Therefore, he thought, he would bring them back.
"Angelica, I don't think you should take them back. If you take them back, it is possible that you will cause the girl's anger. Say Manuel accepted the gifts, and what happened after that, you don't know." "I can't."
Angelica shook her head; she was a person who treated people with sincerity and could never betray someone else, much less her own roommates.
"I promised I would deliver their gifts to Manuel. If Manuel does not need them, I will take them back and explain the situation."
