442 Not Fair (1/2)
-Inside Darren's room-
Darren was typing on his computer while Dylan was leisurely playing games on his cell phone in a corner. Darren had no idea why Dylan was here. He neither talked to him nor did he disturb him, from the time he came, he just sat in one corner and played games.
And apparently, Dylan's silence was even more worrying to Darren than his nonsensical blabber. It was odd. Really odd!
”Didi, if you have nothing to do just go home. Stop disturbing me,” stated Darren with impatience.
”Dazi, how did I disturb you? I'm just sitting here silently. I didn't even call you once. I'm wearing earphones so that the game's noise doesn't disturb you. I'm being so thoughtful and yet you're kicking me out? How could you?” Dylan felt wronged at the way his best friend was trying to get rid of him.
”Your presence is enough to disturb me,” retorted Darren.
Dylan squinted his eyes at Darren and sit up from his weird position on the sofa as he said, ”I'll complain to my sister-in-law!”
Darren's face twitched at his response, ”Didi, you do realize that your sister-in-law is my wife, right?”
”Strictly speaking, she's not your wife,” replied Dylan, and when Darren threw his pen at him, he added, ”Yet. I mean, she is definitely going to be but she isn't yet.”
”I and my heart have already accepted her as my wife, there is no need for arguments.”
Dylan laughed weirdly, ”Your tempo is messed up, bro! Instead of just saying it just take her as a wife already. Even my sister is getting married to Li bro which I never thought would happen and here you are being a slowpoke!”
Darren's expressions turned complicated when he heard Dylan's response. He rubbed his forehead and said, ”Don't remind me of that. Mama had already said enough about that to me.”
Dylan jumped up to his feet and moved towards Darren's desk. ”What did she say? Did you finally get one of those infamous lectures of a mother?” He was like a curious kid eager to hear about this matter.
”Of course she nagged me nonstop for three hours,” replied Darren as he looked at Dylan's face. ”According to her, I'm being incompetent. She had finally got the chance to have a daughter like Xiu and I'm being an idiot by wasting my time.” He took a deep breath and went on, ”She also said that if I kept dragging it on, someone else might sweep her away from me. Because who wouldn't love an adorable, kind, understanding, sensible girl like Xiu.”
Dylan held back his laughter but couldn't do so, ”Pfft!” Darren glared at his best friend. ”I'm sorry but I can't help it. I guess this must be the first time your mom reprimanded you.”
”Yeah. The very first. She had never done this before.”
Dylan clapped happily. ”I must applaud my sister-in-law's charming abilities. She even managed to steal your most loving mom from you. Haha!”
”Huh? You aren't upset?”
