After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 639

The three held back their laughter, forcing themselves to remember his stern image so they didn’t break into cackles.

Gill, who was talked to beforehand by Althea, twitched his lips. Instead of answering the question, he filled up his cup. "Come on, Captain. Sister-in-law wanted you to have fun! Let loose for once will ya?"

Eagle looked at the captain in awe. "Never would I think I’d get to drink with the Captain in a legit pub."

They did drink a bit during those lull times in their missions, but that was when they were camping. And even when they did drink, they couldn’t drink too much either because, after all, they were on the job.

On the other hand, when they were not on missions, the captain was either strategizing, making reports, or simply spending time with his wife (mostly, it’s the latter), so they never really got to drink their hearts out together.

In any case, the conversation fortunately did begin to take form. It was led by the more gregarious Eagle, followed up by the others.

They chatted about their current life and roles in Altera. However, as workaholics, things naturally shifted to some work stuff.

But Gill was sent on a mission by Althea: Distract the Captain well and let him enjoy the night with friends.

"Let’s not talk about work!" Gill said, drinking up. He turned to Eagle with a grin. "I heard you’re finally getting cozy with sister-in-law’s nurse teammate."

Eagle flushed.

"Did you ask her for a date tonight?"

Eagle flushed even redder.

He had indeed asked the nurse for a date. He went around to look for her earlier. It was just that she already had a previous appointment with her workmates.

He remembered his shoulder slumping and, considering his angular facial features, it must have looked a bit scary.

However, at the time, Sheila looked at him as if she was heartbroken instead. In her soft voice, she added, "Uhm… but I am free tomorrow… we can…"

Eagle felt like he just died and resurrected within the span of a few seconds.

"YES!" he yelled with a shit-eating grin. Sheila flushed and ran away though, and it made Eagle think he could’ve scared her off…

He was only pulled out of his daze when he saw a hand waving in front of his face.

"He’s definitely remembering something," Gill grinned, making Eagle want to bury himself under the table.

Eagle cleared his throat, "Ah yes, I have a date with Sheila tomorrow. Probably."

Several eyebrows rose at his admission and they looked at him, making him feel even more shy.

"Have you decided where to take her?"

As special forces soldiers who were always on the go and doing dangerous missions, too many of them were extremely inexperienced with women.
