109 Mine! No, Mine!

With his hands behind his head and legs propped over the desk, Dylan was languidly seated in the police station. Xiu, however, was dozing off.

"Hey, Officer Cheng, can I get a soft drink? With lots of ice. I'm really thirsty." Dylan asked the officer who had been questioning them earlier.

"I say, get this big baby a big bed and a lavish feast as well, his delicate self must be really tired," Xiu taunted from her seat which was in another corner of the room.

Dylan gritted his teeth and said, "Don't listen to troublemakers. She just knows how to break things."

"And you only know how to be petty all the time," Xiu replied back.

Dylan shot up from the chair and shouted, "Yah! If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be stuck here right now!"

Xiu also stood up to face him and snapped at him, "Huh! Some people really love playing the blame game. Mr. Qiu, let me remind you that it was your bloody comment that brought us here."

Officer Cheng tried to hold Dylan back as he was about to charge towards Xiu. On the other hand, Xiu wasn't a pushover, to begin with, she also rolled up her sleeves to beat the hell out of him. A female officer had to hold her back as well for Dylan's safety. But the officers could only hold them physically, both Xiu and Dylan were still shouting curses at each other.

"It was just a comment, did you have to go as far as murdering someone?" Dylan's accusation irked Xiu even more.

"Oi! Who did I murder? Don't lie!"

"You murdered my baby... My newly bought car," Dylan cried back.

Xiu snorted at him, "A human's feelings got hurt because of you but you still care about a machine? Do you have any sense?"

Dylan rolled his eyes at her and snickered, "Ms. Bai, let's be honest here. Humans have long lost feelings since they love breaking their promises. But the machines are different."

"Guess you didn't learn the basics of life yet. It's not hard to have feelings in this age, it's difficult being human now!" Xiu retorted without holding back stunning Dylan to silence for a moment. "All you want in life is 'ATTENTION' but do you even realize what you give others?" Dylan's brows creased up a bit and she continued with a smirk, "You give people, 'A TENSION'!"

"Pfft!"

The female officer beside Xiu couldn't hold back her laughter but the others were sensible enough to stifle theirs. Because Dylan's face had turned red from anger. Oddly, Xiu realized that he was so naturally fair that tinges of red would become extremely vivid on his face.

With his clenched fists beside him, Dylan was seething in the fire. He pointed at Xiu and said, "I used to think that you're a mess. Hot but still a mess. I guess I'm not wrong about that."

Xiu flipped her ruffled, tangled hair dramatically and said, "Don't get the wrong idea, Sir. I'm not a hot mess. I love being a spicy disaster!" historical

Dylan: "..."

While Dylan was standing speechless, the glass door of the princist was pulled open from the outside and in walked a tall figure in his black jeans and a white t-shirt with a coat jacket over it. Both Xiu and Dylan turned their heads and instantly their eyes lit up.

Almost at once, both of them ran up to the newcomer's side and held his hand. Darren looked at Dylan holding his right hand and then looked at Xiu holding his left hand. Only he knew what turmoil he was going through right now.

"I knew you'd come," both Xiu and Dylan spoke simultaneously as they gazed at Darren with the same look of dependence. But as soon as they saw each other holding Darren's hand, their brows snapped together.

"Mr. Qiu, let go of his hand," said Xiu glaring at Dylan.

"Ms. Bai, I suggest you to let go," retorted Dylan with the same look of defiance.

"Mr. Qiu, you can say anything to me but don't you dare touch what's mine. I'm a possessive bitch!" Xiu's words earned her a quirk of a brow in surprise from Darren.

"Ms. Bai, I should be telling you that. I know you treat me like a bloody arcade that's why you're always playing me. But this is my limit. Let him go!"

"I have the right to hold this hand," said Xiu with conviction and right. She was like a tigress claiming her territory.

"Oho! This hand is mine. This best friend is mine."

"He's my boyfriend!"

As they both noticed what they had just said, both looked confused.

"He's your best friend?" Xiu looked at Dylan to ask and the latter nodded in reply.

"He's your boyfriend?" This time Dylan asked Xiu and she nodded in response.

After a moment of letting that sink in, both of them looked at Darren at once and asked:

"She's the girlfriend you told me about?"

"He's the best friend you're talking about?"

Darren was the only calm person in this situation. Well, at least, he looked very calm right now. He looked at their anticipating eyes before he lifted his hand to brush Xiu's hair down and said, "Yes, Didi, she's my girlfriend." As Dylan's eyes widened, he added, "And yes, Sweets, Dylan is my best friend. Well, calling him a brother would be more appropriate."

There was silence for a moment. A complicated silence that seemed suffocating before both Xiu and Dylan spoke out at the same time again,

"But I don't like him."

"But I don't like her."

Darren heaved a long and heavy sigh as he massaged his brows and said, "I really don't have time for this, right now. First, let me solve the mess you both created."

His words managed to silence them both and they turned into the most innocent and docile selves. Darren walked towards the desk of an officer and introduced himself saying, "Hi, I'm R.D. Salvay! I'm here for both of them."

Officer Cheng looked at Xiu and Dylan before looking at Darren and asked, "You know both of them?"

Darren took a moment before saying, "One is my girlfriend and the other is my best friend."

Officer Cheng passed a document for his signature while he said, "Man, you must be having it tough." That look of pity and slight admiration in his eyes caught Darren off since he had no idea how much trouble his girlfriend and his best friend had put them in. If only he knew...Please go to
