Imperfect Desires Chapter 110 – Troublemaker Kids

Darren couldn’t believe what he was told by the police officer. The argument that led to the police station sounded ridiculous and outrageous to him. He couldn’t believe that his best friend and girlfriend would turn out to be like two bullies trying to get the upper hand over the other.

Now that he recalled it, he had always heard Xiu cursing her boss who turned out to be his own best friend. As for Dylan, he wasn’t any better either. So, apparently, while he wasn’t paying attention, his best friend and his girlfriend had turned into mortal enemies.

Xiu and Dylan followed behind him in silence as they left the police station. Hanging their heads down in guilt both of them seemed like the epitome of innocence. But Darren wasn’t paying attention since he had much to sort out in his mind.

“I still can’t believe you’re dating my best friend,” Dylan was the one who whispered in disbelief.

“Do you think I’m enjoying this? This is the most ridiculous truth I’ve ever heard in my life!” Xiu also whisper yelled at him in rage.

Looking at Darren’s back, Dylan added, “Now, my best friend is not even talking. This is all your fault.”

Xiu was so close to hitting him but taking into consideration how Darren was there as well, she couldn’t just explode. It was enough of humiliation that her boyfriend had to come to pick her up from a police station on their first day of dating. She didn’t want to add in more humiliation. But she wasn’t the one to stay quiet as well.

“Sir, I’m planning on buying a car now,” said Xiu out of the blue making Dylan frown in confusion.

“What does that have to do with me?” Dylan asked.

“Nothing, I’m just warning you to take precautions,” said Xiu with a shrug of her shoulders.

“Precautions for what?” asked Dylan again.

Xiu gave him a smirk which told Dylan that she was up to no good and sure enough, her next words stumped him. “Just informing you to be cautious while crossing the road next time. If my car ended up running over you, I won’t be the one taking the blame for it.”

Dylan: “…”

“Hoel!” Dylan was having difficulty trying to form a sentence or even a word. “Yah! You won’t find a person like me ever again.”

Xiu chuckled as she said, “First of all, THANK GOD for that!” Dylan lifted his hand to strangle her when Darren around.

“Hands down,” Darren’s voice was like the angel of death standing on Dylan’s head. He was scared out of his wits when he saw Darren’s grim expressions.

Xiu stuck her tongue out at him childishly before holding Darren’s arm and saying, “Sir… Wait, now that we are out of the office and considering how you’re my boyfriend’s best friend, I’ll talk casually with you.” Both Darren and Dylan turned their eyes towards her as she went on, “Uncle Dylan, sometimes you should make peace with a fact that you’re a villain in another person’s story. Right now, you’re the villain boss in my dating. Even if you think you’re doing the right thing, don’t forget you’re not living my life. From my perspective, you ruined my date. And I, Bai Xiu will never forget this.”

After a moment of digesting her words, Dylan turned to look at Darren and said, “Aren’t you gonna say anything now? That’s a blatant threat!” When Darren showed no interest in involving himself in their argument, Dylan looked at Xiu and said, “You! You call me an Uncle. Remember?”

“Of course, I’ll still call you Uncle. Why? Any problem with that?” Xiu didn’t turn back on her words at all. He was still the petty Uncle to her as before.

“Okay, I’m an Uncle,” said Dylan while nodding his head in understanding before he continued, “But I and Daz are of the same age. How is it possible that he’s your boyfriend and I’m an Uncle?”

“How old are you?” asked Xiu.

“Turned 27 this year,” replied Dylan looking at provocatively.

“I’ve heard that every three years comes a new generation. And I’m gonna turn 23 this year which means, you and I have 2 generation gap. That’s why you’re an Uncle,” elaborated Xiu and even added, “As for my boyfriend, an age gap of five years is not much at all.”

“Hold on, we have five years age gap which means we are only one generation apart,” Dylan tried to reason on a very unexpected matter, completely overlooking her biasedness for now.

“Nope. We have one and a half generation gap but rounding it off it becomes two generations. Simple.” Xiu seemed so sure of her own logic that even Darren had no words for her.

“Does that even make sense? You’re being biased now.” Dylan complained, with an unhappy expression.

“Of course, I am being biased. One is my boyfriend and the other is my boss whom I really don’t like. Would it even make sense if I’m not being biased here? I think so not!” Xiu’s words really left Dylan in a strange mood. His mind really couldn’t work the way hers did. “By the way, Uncle Dylan since you’re old enough to be a bit behind the trend, let me enlighten you, it’s a trend to date older men. Besides, look at your best friend, does my boyfriend even looks like he’s older than me? I don’t think so.”

“Why are you questioning if all the answers are gonna come out of your own mouth?” 

Xiu smiled at him oddly and said, “Because I don’t trust neither your judgment nor your answers.” Taking a pause, she added, “In the future, if your old self needs help in learning the trends of us young people, please tell me… Not!”

“Hey! You! You!” Dylan’s body was trembling with rage now but he still couldn’t do anything at all.

Xiu flipped her hair and looked at Darren asked, “Where is your car?”

“Over there,” Darren pointed at his black SUV and Xiu nodded her head as she turned to walk towards it. 

“Where do you think you’re going?” Dylan yelled at her from behind.

Xiu halted in her steps and turned her head to say, “I didn’t know that done was an emotion. Because right now, I’m feeling like I’m done with you!” With that, she went to Darren’s car where the driver opened the door for her and she slid inside.

Seeing both Xiu and Dylan’s interaction with his own eyes Darren realized something. He was dealing with two troublemaker kids. Now he believed the police officer’s words, he was certainly gonna have it tough from now on.
