Chapter 113 - Remedy Of Love (2/2)
”Who are you asking about? I broke up a long time ago.”
”What? What happened now? Why are you always breaking up? Doesn't it hurt or something?”
He laughed at Xiu's words and said, ”What era are you living in? Don't you know how fast the world is changing? How can I date the same girl for the rest of my life? Wouldn't that be boring?”
”Argh! You're really a bastard! A bloody jerk! How can you play with a girl's feelings all the time?” Xiu started shouting at him through the phone making his roll his eyes at her.
”I'm playing with them? I feel like the one being played though. But even if I explain that you won't understand so let's get over it.” Xiu wasn't very convinced but she still dropped the topic especially when he said, ”Also, Ms. Superstar, you're right there is no remedy for love except for one.”
”What is it?” Xiu asked curiously.
”If there is no remedy for love than you should just love more to compensate yourself for the loss.” Xiu's eyes widened at his reply while he continued, ”Losing someone is no big deal. Loving all over again with an even more passion is the real deal now. We only question ourselves after a breakup but we forget that perhaps, the person wasn't doing his best as well.”
”Sweets... Sweets... Wake up, we are here.”
Xiu heard his voice and in her drowsy state, she felt like that voice had a striking resemblance with the one she remembered from her past. She instantly opened her eyes and looked at Darren's face. Then she looked around to realize that she had been dreaming.
With a confused expression, she looked at Darren's face again and lifted her hand to touch his face but held herself back. It was weird how Darren's voice suddenly felt so familiar but she thought it to be her own delusion and nothing else.
”Where are we?” she asked rubbing her eyes with her lips puckered up in an adorable way.
Darren pushed open the door of the car and offered his hand to her saying, ”Why don't you come out and see for yourself?”
Xiu frowned at his mysterious way of talking but shrugging her shoulders, she placed her hand in his and alighted from the car. But her confusion increased when all that she faced was darkness before her. But the place she was standing at was very familiar to her. She looked at Darren's face and asked, ”Why are we here?”
Darren leaned close to her ear and whispered, ”For our very first dinner date.”
