Reposting tyhe answer for better undersatnding:
 
From the electronic configuration of the Sulphur atom,
that is last filled orbital configuration is:
=> 3s2 3p4
After gaining one electron it would become 3p5 and then again for accepting one more electron it woukd becoe 3p6 and hence would attain fully filled orbital configuration and woud be more stable hence the electron gain enthalpy would be more postive in this case.
