Chapter 383 - Three Hundred And Eighty-three: Siblings Dont Kiss (2/2)

”Hi, I'm Neon,” He stretched out his hand instead, and the twins who had been egging him on groaned and facepalmed mentally. For God's sake it was Neon, what had they been expecting?

Grace snorted, shooting him a look of disdain, ”I'm sorry but I don't shake hands with a lowlife,”

At that snide remark, Philip burst into mocking laughter that made Neon wish the ground would open up and swallow him up.

”My eyes have been infected by these lowlives and I need to cleanse it, so let's find somewhere better to look,” Grace said to Philip, and together, both cousins left, but not without laughing at the twins one final time.

”She's a witch!” Neon stomped his feet as soon as they were out of sight.

”And you were so brave,” Allen pointed out sarcastically.

”Give him a break,” Ailee told her brother.

”Whatever,” Allen rolled his eyes and left the both of them, his mood had taken a plunge.

”Allen is angry at me,” Neon noticed and that made his heart sink.

”He's not angry at you but the witch and her acolyte Phillip. He's just taking out his aggression on you,” She added, ”Seriously, don't mind him,”

However, that did little to lift the boy's spirit.

”You know what?” An idea suddenly crossed her mind as she stared at the couples dancing on the dance floor.

”What?”

”We should go dance,” she suggested with a smile.

”What?!” The boy was surprised.

”I read somewhere that dancing is therapy for a bad mood,” Ailee said to him, thrilled at the idea.

”But I don't know how to dance,”

”Don't worry,” Ailee assured him, ”We'd just do whatever the adults do,” She told him, grabbed his hand, and began to pull to the dance floor already.

”Alright, here we are,” Ailee muttered, getting the both of them into position while observing a couple dancing beside them, ”Your hand goes to my waist and the other interlocks my other hand,”

For some reason, Neon frowned, why do people have to go through this odd pose just to dance. However, the boy didn't complain and in no time began to sway to the music as the others did.

Ailee gave him a warm I - got - you - covered smile as they danced in silence. However, it got to a time when the couple in front of them suddenly kissed and the boy's eyes widened.

”Are we supposed to do that too?” Neon gulped, pointing to the couples locked in a kiss. Wasn't that eww?

”Of course not!” Ailee was abashed by his comment.

”But you said we're going to do whatever the adults do,” He pointed out.

”Except that. You're my brother Neon and siblings don't kiss like that,” She preached, hoping it gets into that dumb head of his.

”I'm not your brother though,” the boy murmured.

”What did you say?” Ailee asked, having not heard him clearly

”Nothing,” Neon said rather quickly.

”Well, if you say so,” Ailee didn't press him further as both continued their dance.

However, unknown to Ailee, her cousins Grace and Phillip had emerged on the dance floor because of them and were with evil intentions.

So while they were dancing, Grace intentionally danced closer to them and Philip stuck out a leg and tripped Neon. The boy helplessly lost his footing and fell, bringing Ailee down with them.

Though people didn't mean to laugh, the scene was so funny that they had a good laugh before realizing how wrong they were. However, the deed has been done, Neon ran out of there embarrassed.

”Neon!” Ailee called after him but the boy didn't even look back.

Infuriated, Ailee stomped over to her brother who surprisingly, didn't find Neon's fall funny.

”I'm done being nice,” she announced, chest-heaving.

Allen smirked, ”I was wondering when you were going to say that,” an idea already forming in his head.
