Side Story 3: Paul VS Daryl (1)

Daryl went for the meet-up with Paula, but had to go back soon after she arrived at the cafe due to serious nausea. Paul hurried to take her back home. She just leant on his shoulder all the way, even getting a little dizzy.

Daryl and Paul actually didn't have much time together now.

Paul was always busy with his work and Daryl spent most of her time learning what she was supposed to know as a mother. Even if they had got the chance to kick off a conversation, Daryl would feel sleepy soon and fell asleep in no time. That's a normal syndrome of gestation.

Daryl regarded him with puzzlement.

"I can't wait to eat the food you cook." explained he.

Why not learn to cook yourself? As though that's the sole reason you married me!" Sometimes, Daryl even thought Paul was only taking her as an excellent chef. 'Can't you think about something more serious?"

Something more serious?’ Paul suddenly remembered that, "Oh, I've narrowed down the list of foster parents. Only as a backup method if we really can't be good parents, of course."
