Side Story 4: Paul VS Daryl (1)

After that day, Daryl stopped going to the training class. Paul arranged for her the one-on-one course, and the teacher would come to their house to give lessons. So, she felt much more relaxed now. Sure enough, she should not force herself to fit in that circle. She had learned a lesson and never asked to take part in any group activities again.

After all, she had enough friends who liked partying and hanging out with her.

The executives she had met by accident all kept their mouths shut about this although she had never asked them to do so. She had expected the news to spread throughout the company soon, but it did not happen.

There were rumors about her pregnancy, but no one could confirm it. So, it was still a mystery for most employees.

Lucia's stomach was bigger than Daryl's because the former was expecting twins. And Daryl was both envious and terrified when hearing the news.

Thinking of two babies in her small belly, she couldn't help having some foolish reflections. And after she heard balloons going bang on TV, she had a nightmare that her belly became so bulging that it was on the edge of an explosion.

Some experienced people had told her she was pregnant with a girl after seeing her belly. Daryl didn't know how they could tell the baby's gender, but she couldn't help looking forward to giving birth to a cute girl now.

If she gave birth to a boy, he might be as garrulous as Paul, making her angry every day. So, she wanted a daughter more. She and Paul would dote on her, and he would be more patient with a girl. Daryl could imagine Paul would gently hold his daughter, rub her little face, and lovingly play with her.

So, she dreamed about a soft girl with dark eyes and a cute voice every night, feeling as if her heart were melting.

One morning, Daryl leaned in Paul's arms with a big belly and lazily said, ’Buy more little pink clothes for the baby.1'

Paul did not care about the color of the baby’s clothes. After all, he didn't even care much about his own clothes. It would be OK for him as long as he was not naked or looking impolite.

After he nodded in response, she asked, "Have you thought about the name?"

He rubbed his eyes sleepily and said in a hoarse voice, ' What name?"

Daryl snapped at his arm and said, "I have drafted a lot of names.
