<h4>755 Only One Lazy Bum</h4>


    Herughter was a soft breeze tinkling the wind chimes on a warm sunny day. It made one want toy back and just rx. It was soothing and he couldn''t help wanting her to continueughing.


    When Xiu stoppedughing, she said to him, "Regan, do you know how obvious your answer was?" He blinked his eyes in response and she went on, "It''s weird but I think my heart is only willing to believe. Only when you say you''ll never leave me, this heart of mine bes your advocate."


    - ''Where can I go? After all, I''m still meant toe back home. To you; my one and only home.''


    Reading his reply, Xiu held her chest with her right hand and said, "How many more arrows are you gonna throw? There is no space left!"


    - ''I already have my own space in that heart. Don''t I?''


    Xiu closed her eyes and licked her lips before chuckling, "Don''t try so hard. I already gave all of my heart to you. Do what you want to do with it."


    - ''Then I''ll protect this heart at the cost of anything. I promise.''


    Xiu looked at his face and saw how his eyes had turned misty and said, "Are you gonna cry? Don''t do it. If you cried, I''m gonna cry harder. And let''s ept it, between you and me, I''m the best crier!"


    Darren didn''t want tough but he still ended upughing softly at her words. Which other fools would be so proud of being the ''best crier''? She was the only one!


    - ''I''m willing to give you the title of the best crier! Just don''t cry right now. I can''t go to you wipe your tears.''


    Xiu pouted at him, "I won''t cry..." She stayed silent for a minute before asking, "Does it hurt?" He raised his brows slightly. "I mean your head. Does it hurt? And why is it covered in gauze-like this? It wasn''t like thisst time."


    He didn''t want to lie to her that''s he just chose to hide it as he replied with...


    - ''It does hurt a bit but it''s okay.''


    Xiu scowled, "How is that okay? What are the doctors doing? If it''s hurting they should be giving you some painkiller."


    - ''But it''s nothing much. It''ll be fine with some rest.''


    Xiu wasn''t convinced at all but she still said, "Then close your eyes and go to sleep."


    - ''I can''t.''


    "Why? If you won''t try how would you know whether you can sleep or not?" she argued.


    - ''When I close my eyes, something feels missing.''


    "Missing?" she frowned. "What''s missing? Why can''t I think of anything?"


    - ''You''re missing.''


    Xiu looked at his face and he sent another note.


    Xiu pressed her lips together and didn''t know what else to say to him. She wanted to convince him but how was she supposed to do it? She could tell clearly what void he was feeling.


    "Should I sing you a luby?" she suggested. "It might help you." Thinking about it, "No, forget it. I haven''t warmed up my vocals in a long time. So, I won''t sing. Then... How about I share my dreams with you?"


    - ''Do whatever you want.''


    Xiu happily tried to recall the details and said, "I had a weird dream. I have an intuition, this little tiger is actually a boy."


    Darren was stunned to hear that.


    - ''How did youe to that conclusion?''


    "Because I literally saw a little tiger in my dream. He was jumping on my tummy. It looked adorable. Now, that I think about it, can we adopt a baby tiger? They are very fluffy and cute."


    - ''Two tigers are enough for me.''


    Xiu''s brows furrowed, "You already have two tigers?"


    - ''Yes, I''m looking at one right now. And the other is slowing growing up in his mother''s tummy.''


    Xiu had a look of understanding, "Oh, you''re talking about me and my son. Took me a while to understand that."


    - ''What? Already came to the conclusion that it''s gonna be a son?''


    Xiu nodded her head, "I''m sticking with my intuition. I wish he has your eyes."


    - ''You''ve already told me about that.''


    "So what? I will repeat it again and again so that God can hear me clearly and make sure that my son has his dad''s eyes."


    Darren was suddenly reminded of what he saw in his dream and couldn''t help smiling. He looked at her intently.


    - ''Let''s assume, it''s a son. Then what? What are you gonna teach him?''


    Xiu thought about it, "First of all, I''ll teach him how to do his own work and how to cook his own meals."


    - ''What?''


    "What? His mother is superzy! He needs to learn that."


    Darren wanted to facepalm himself but couldn''t do so in his condition.


    - ''We''ll just hire a nanny to do that stuff. No need to worry.''


    Xiu wasn''t pleased to hear that. "Why? Why can''t he do his own work? Does he want to bezy like his mother? I won''t allow it! Only onezy bum in enough in one family. I won''t give this status to anyone!"


    Darren was helpless before her stubbornness. What to do?


    "But don''t worry, I''llpensate him well." Darren raised his brows as she went on, "I''ll help him with his homework. Also, I''ll teach him how to y basketball as well. Since it''s my own son, he has to inherit my musical talent as well." Darren kept listening as she listed out a lot of things and finally ended with, "Ah! I forgot the most important one! I''m definitely gonna teach him the art of sightseeing! Hehe!"


    Darren stilled at her words and didn''t know what to say. It was as if his dream wasing to life. She indeed nned on teaching such stuff to their kid as well. What kind of parenting was this?
