Early in the morning when Ah-Si came to drop Ava off, he was left baffled seeing Dylan and Darren there. He could understand why Darren was there but what the hell was Dylan doing here?!

Nora, however, didn't pay attention to his expressions since she was busy hugging her little bun whom she missed so much in just couple of days. How was it that she felt so bloody attached to the girl whom she only met twice? Perhaps, that's what being a mother was like. She loved the feeling of how Ava would snuggle up to her every single time as she if she found comfort against her chest.

How come she never knew before that this motherly feeling could actually make you feel so full?

”Wanna have breakfast, Si bro?” Xiu invited Ah-Si to join them for breakfast as she served the other two lads at the table and joined them.

Ah-Si didn't hear Xiu's question since he was still engrossed in throwing daggers at Dylan with his eyes. He really wanted to ask him what he was doing at someone else's home early in the morning?

”Ah-Si, if you're that hungry try this breakfast that my younger sister-in-law made. Trust me, I won't taste half as good as her food.” Dylan knew Ah-Si was really gonna gnash him under his teeth if he didn't stop so he added, ”Would you look at that... My elder sister-in-law is so happy seeing my cute niece who I apparently didn't even know existed until a couple of days ago.”

Poor Dylan became the last person to even find out about Ava's existence. Either he was too clueless or he was too engrossed in Cali that he didn't bother about what was going on around him these days.

”Dylan, what did you call Nora?” asked Xiu.

”Elder sister-in-law,” answered Dylan simply. ”Since Nora came first she is technically elder sister-in-law while you're the younger one.”

Darren patted Dylan's shoulder saying, ”Didi, you're getting smarter.”

”I know,” said Dylan and looked at Ah-Si whose murderous aura was finally replaced with something different.

Xiu leaned close to Dylan and said, ”I know what you did there. But come on! Those two have a child together and yet they are acting like bloody teenagers on a first date. At this rate, that niece of yours would be bringing home her first boyfriend before her parents could make any progress.”

Dylan laughed out. He gave Xiu a thumbs up saying, ”I didn't see you for a day and I almost forgot how savage you can get.”

”Keep in mind next time,” said Xiu making him laugh even more.

”Uh-oh, there goes another volcano,” Dylan said pointing at Darren. ”Relax. It's just an inside joke between me and my sister-in-law.”

Darren didn't say anything. It wasn't worth it really because he knew the nature between Xiu and Dylan's friendship. They were one of the weirdest pairs after all. Even their inside jokes were the weirdest ones like them.

”I never left bro,” answered Dylan. ”I mean I slept at Dazi's place. I was gonna have breakfast with my favorite aunt in the world but Francesca went out on a date with my mom.”

”Aw, poor Dylan was abandoned,” teased Xiu making Dylan pout.

”Xiu, you won't like me when I'm angry!”

”I don't like you anyway,” replied Xiu as she stuck out her tongue at him.

Dylan pointed his finger at Xiu saying, ”Someday you'll have to answer God for your actions and trust me, God won't be so merciful.”

Xiu patted his head to annoy him as she said, ”And that's why Dylan, you need to do better in life.”

”Xiu!”

”Dylan!”
