Chapter 748 - Just Good Friends? (2/2)
Dylan had instantly shaken his head vigorously and repeated, 'I want! I want! I want!'
Darren had laughed at him and ruffled his hair saying, 'You're cute. I think we'll good friends.'
Dylan slung his arm around his shoulder, 'Just good friends? Let's be the best of best friends! Bros for life!'
Darren looked at Dylan's face for a moment longer before nodding agreeably, 'Let's do that.'
Thinking back, Dylan didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Even now, this pair of best friends had the same fear towards the dogs as back then. The incident had left them traumatized. But it had also brought them closer to each other. Because that once incident was enough to make them become inseparable.
Darren who was too m_a_t_u_r_ed for his age found someone to shower his protectiveness towards and Dylan who was too sheltered found someone to lean on. They were really an odd pair of best friends.
Dylan's lips parted slightly, ”I promised you that no matter what pain, we'd go through it together. I feel like a sinner for being the only one fine right now while you're in this condition. I really feel helpless and lost.” He wiped his tears with the back of his hand and went on, ”You always say I become a lost puppy without you. You're absolutely right. I am a lost puppy without so please be alright. I still need you.”
”Actually, I think you'd be very angry with me. So, you wouldn't want to wake up for me. But don't forget, I'm not the only one waiting for you. Xiu is also waiting for you.”
He wanted to hit him playfully but stopped, ”And I'm also angry okay? You didn't even tell me that you're gonna be a father. Or that you got married. How can you hide this from me? This is really unfair. I always share everything with you but you hid something like this from me. And you didn't even tell me I'm gonna be an uncle. Do you know how happy I was to hear this news but I couldn't even come to hug you. I was really mad that I wasn't the first person you shared this with. But...” he took a breath and went on, ”But if you wake up, I won't be angry with you, eh? So, please wake up. If you want, I'll never appear before you or Xiu. However, let me at least see you alright? I can't even walk away with you being like this.”
He continued to talk to Darren for a long time. In fact, it was just him talking because the other person was unconscious but he didn't mind it. He could talk for a whole day without taking a break but he was having difficulty before his best friend for the first time. That's why he said all the random things he could think of.
It was funny how at this time, he wouldn't even mind if his best friend ignored him for his wife. In fact, he didn't mind any reaction right now. He just wanted to see any reaction. Anything that could set his heart at ease.
Even if he was hesitant about choosing family or friendship yesterday, he wasn't today. He had come to a conclusion already. It wasn't a matter of family or friendship anymore. It was a matter of right and wrong. And he would never stand with wrong. Or else, wouldn't his best friend look down on him?
