Side Story 3: Paul VS Daryl (2)

The next class was set on Sunday. Daryl didn't get up until midday, and Paul just stayed on the bed with her, touching her belly from time to time. The behavior, which was the normal way to express love for other couples, just appeared quite weird to Daryl, for she believed Paul was actually checking when he could finally get rid of the kid.

She gave a quiver involuntarily at that thought.

Are you cold?'' asked Paul.

Not really." Daryl curled up into a ball.

Shall I bring you some water to make you more comfortable?" Paul advised.

You can make me more comfortable by displeasing me as less as possible." snapped Daryl.

Daryl asked the driver to send her to the class as usual, forgetting it was Sunday and the driver didn't work at weekends. The driver replied he would be along a bit late as he had to prepare the birthday party for his kid. He was willing to help Daryl just taking her as a friend rather than an employer.

Daryl felt so sorry about her carelessness. She hurried to transfer some money to him for the gift to his kid, reassuring him she would manage it herself.

She could just get a taxi for such a short distance.

Hearing their conversation, Paul offered, "I can be your driver today."

'You don't need to be." Daryl turned him down.

'I'll have to, because I'm afraid you'll run away with other men. Paul joked.

Daryl said to herself, "Even if I do want to run away, such a huge belly will only make me out of breath even when I'm only walking fast, not to mention running.’

At that moment, Paul just felt he actually didn't dislike the prospect of having a child that much.

In the end, Daryl eventually got into Paul's car. Both his cars were luxurious ones and she was so nervous about the possibility of running into any of her classmates on the way. Hardly had their car reached the gate of building, she asked Paul to draw up. She got off as swiftly as possible before she urged him to leave quickly.

Paul regarded her gloomily, guessing the reason for her strange behavior.
