C93 You Two Discussed This Without Me

After finishing our food, we realized we still had time before lunch break ended.

Alicia started telling us about an upcoming Kite Flying Day event. She explained how difficult it had been convincing her family to allow her to attend. “They finally agreed,” she said proudly.

I smiled. “My mother told me she and my father attended one years ago.” She said it was fun.

When it was Chris’s turn to speak, he looked confused. “Wait a minute.” “I don’t remember discussing this with either of you.” He narrowed his eyes. “Did you two talk on Weibo without me?”

The moment he mentioned Weibo, Alicia immediately complained. “Speaking of Weibo, why are you two always offline?” “I’m bored most of the time.” “You never reply to anything.”

Chris laughed. “Alicia, we come to work from morning until afternoon.” “Every day there are new assignments, new responsibilities, and new things to learn.”

He shook his head. “There is no such thing as free time for us.” “Tomorrow we’re going somewhere, which means tonight I’ll probably be awake late finishing tomorrow’s work as well.”

I nodded in agreement. “Our lives aren’t exactly easy.” “If we want to succeed, we have to work harder than everyone else.”

Without realizing it, I started talking about Tasks I have of computers and cybersecurity. To my surprise, Alicia understood almost everything I was saying.

Before long, the two of us were debating different systems and technologies. Chris sat quietly listening. he raised his hand dramatically. “Hold on.”

The two of us stopped talking and looked at him. Chris frowned. “Is Cybersecurity and Information Systems basically the same thing?” “The way you two are talking makes it sound like you’re in the same department.”

Alicia and I looked at each other. Then we both burst out laughing.
