Sir Ares, Goodnight

Cole suddenly reached out to grasp Angeline's cold and petite hands, reassuring her. "Don't worry, Angeline. I promise I'll see and take care of your kids as if they're my own." Zayne took a spoon and knocked it against the back of Cole's hand. "Let go of my sister. What do you think you're doing, showing PDA in the middle of the day?" Cole retracted his hands and smiled elegantly like a gentleman. "Just how conservative is your family?" Zayne replied, "You tell me. Our last name is Severe, so I'm sure you can imagine the degree to which our family's values run. You'll have to go through many trials before marriage if you want to pursue my sister. Chastity, for one, then there's also the prohibiting of holding hands and kissing, but I suppose you could send each other flying kisses if you want." Cole paid attention and listened, even recording them down carefully so he would not forget. Angeline quietly admired Zayne's performance. She was very curious as to how Zayne, the shameless delinquent and rulebreaker, came up with something like chastity before marriage. "Have you and Big Sis gotten registered yet?" Angeline asked. Zayne replied without thinking, "Nope." Angeline continued, "Then are you living together?" At that, Zayne realized the trap Angeline had set for him in her questions and protested. "You're becoming more of a busybody than the elderly women on bingo night. Don't you know worrying makes you grow old quicker?"

Angeline replied, "Who are you to force these rules on me when you couldn't follow them either?" Zayne's eyes widened. "Are you this thirsty for action, Angeline? So much so that even strangers would do?" Angeline was frustrated. Cole liked the idea. "My family is fine with anything, Angeline." Zayne glared at Cole. "Your intentions with my sister don't seem very pure." Cole replied, "To tell the truth, it was love at first sight for me, and every subsequent meeting only deepened my feelings for her. I'd rather not marry at all if it's not her I'm marrying." Zayne snickered. "Naha. Love at first sight? In other words, you mean you saw how pretty my sister is and you had some illicit thoughts about her." Cole shrugged. "She's a pretty lady and I'm just a man. What's so wrong about that?" "Shallow." Zayne pointed out. "You mean to tell me that you prefer dirty and sloppy women?" Cole fired back. Zayne was speechless. After a long while did his mind finally come up with something meaningful. "You want to marry my sister, but do you at least know what she likes? My sister likes vegetables that come in meat dishes. She orders meat dishes then picks the meat out for other people. Can you deal with that?" Cole furrowed his brows. "Why do I have to eat them? Can't I just throw them into the rubbish?" Zayne faced Angeline with his arms open. "He's not your type." Cole's survival instincts kicked in. He smiled. "For Angeline, I can do it. I can eat her leftovers." However, Zayne fired back. "You'll need more than just the willingness to eat her leftovers. The type of body you have matters as well. If you eat too much meat, your body won't look as good as it does now. Not to mention the high cholesterol that comes with constantly eating meat. Don't blame my sister if she ends up leaving you because of that." Cole replied, "Isn't it normal for my body to change after eating so much fatty meat? I'm sure Angeline wouldn't leave me because of that." Zayne stated offhandedly, "Yet someone still manages to be in great shape despite having done it for over ten years." He was blatantly showing off the love between Jay and Angeline. Cole's expression turned into a look of embarrassment. Angeline rolled her eyes at her brother. Her voice was fueled by revenge when she spoke, "There's nothing between us anymore, Zayne. Don't talk about him in front of me again." Zayne was taken aback. "Must you go to such extremes?" He spared a furtive glance behind him only to find Jay Ares silently walking toward the exit. His steps were reluctant and his retreating figure was full of sorrow. Zayne's chest hurt. There was a sour and bitter aftertaste in his mouth. gelina's voice, Jay felt an upsurge of misery fill his chest. It turned out this was how it would end after he lived his entire life for her.
