Chapter 295 - Monkey (1/2)
”Wake up. Wake Up. WAKE UPPPPPPP!!!!!”
Suyin and Wang Shi bolted up in panic when they heard Honey shouting. She subconsciously grabbed the knife hidden under her pillow and swing it in the air. Wang Shi took an attacking stance, ready to throw a power pact punch.
Honey grinned up at the two over a fake moustache. It was far too large for his cute face. ”Wake up, sleepy heads. It's my birthday! It's Honey's birthday! Birthday. Birthday. Birthday. Birthday. I am seven years old man now. Yayyyy!” He spread his palms to Suyin, ”Ducky, gift. You owe me eight.” then he moved to Wang Shi, ”Don't be stingy this time. Last year's gift was so boring that I bothered looking at it again. Give me something exciting this time.”
Suyin and Wang Shi gaped at him. Confused.
Before Suyin or Wang Shi could utter a single word, Honey jumped from the bed and posed grandly in front of the mirror. His hands at his moustache. ”Dad, any idea by how many centimetres my height increased? When will I reach yours? And my muscles? They definitely look good, isn't it?”
While the little one was checking his muscles and abs, Suyin's head slowly turned at Wang Shi, ”If my memory serves me right, isn't his birthday tomorrow?”
”Your memory serves just right, but a certain brat is looking for a knock on head,” Wang Shi grumbled, running a hand on his face. Who likes being waken up like this early in the morning? Such an annoying alarm clock. ”His calendar is running a little fast. Courtesy, not going to school. Now I understood the use of writing date at the corner of the notebook.”
”Seven year old man! hahahaha....” Honey twisted the corners of the moustache.
”Six year old,” Suyin grumbled, ”What's wrong with him telling incorrect age every time?”
Wang Shi chuckled, ”Who can understand this better than you?” The entire time he babbled about being a six year old man. Now she will get to hear seven. ”By the way, where did he get this moustache from?”
Suyin pursed her lips. And just then Honey spoke up on her behalf, ”From ducky's hoard. See....” he opened Suyin's backpack containing many stuff. ”It's like dragon's treasure with many interesting things. My favourite being this pendrive-- do you know how it works--”
Wang Shi's tried to stop when Honey brought it forward near his waist. But he was late by a second, ”AHHH! OWW! OWW! HONEY!” The next second the mighty Dr. Wang Shi was see bitting bedsheet, groaning, rubbing the side of his waist. ”BRAT,”
Without delaying a second Honey jumped towards Suyin for protection, his fake moustache falling behind. Honey blinked his eyes innocently, ”I always wanted to try that. So that's how a taser gun works. I like it!”
”So? Am I your guinea pig?” Wang Shi hissed, ”What else you have planned to try on me?” Honey's gaze slipped down, stopping at Wang Shi's crotch. ”Hey!” he covered it instantly.
Honey shook his head, ”Nothing. Nothing. I didn't say a word. I won't do anything. My gift, please.”
Suyin covered her mouth, smothering a laugh.
Wang Shi sighed. He barely had time to wonder what Honey had on his mind. Suyin's smile had his heart.
”My gift!”
”It's not your birthday.” Wang Shi said.
Honey rolled his eyes, ”I knew you were going to say that. You must have prepared a gift like last time and is now sacred to show it in front of ducky, don't you?” He pouted at Suyin; the adorable face she can never resist. Wang Shi was surprised how fast his son change expressions. ”Last time he gave me-- gave me-- atapatament in york.”
Suyin ”...”
Wang Shi, ”Apartment in New York. And you forgot I took you, Yuyu and Lan to the amus.e.m.e.nt park.”
”But you didn't let me to any ride. And neither the haunted house.” Honey complained. ”This time I will choose my own gifts. And they will be combined.” He touched Suyin's chin, ”You owe me eight. Seven for birthdays, and plus one as a good-luck for next year, and one from dad. That makes it nine. Oh my, I can ask for a big one!”
”But munchkin, it's really not your birthday today. See--” She showed him the date on tab,” And I haven't prepared any gift for you. How would I? I was not aware my fairy will come looking for me here.” Honey's face fell. Suyin patted the top of his head. ”But I have ordered a gift for you months' advance.” It was supposed to reach Wang Shi's office a week before Honey's birthday. ”I will give you that, and seven more once we go back, is it okay?”
”But I have your gift with me.” Wang Shi said. Suyin failed to catch the excitement in his voice.
”I don't care about yours.” Honey said. His pink lips still curved into an adorable pout as he played with Suyin's fingers. Wang Shi rose his brows at Suyin.
Suyin, ”Fine. You said you want to choose your own gifts. Ask me anything. But remember, only reasonable demands and it should be in my capability.” For a reason Suyin had a feeling of premonition that Honey's demand won't come easy to her.
A smile blossomed on Honey's face as he looked at the two. ”I--I--”
