Imperfect Desires

Chapter 111 - She Is Crazy!



After Xiu left them, Darren's eyes turned to glare at Dylan making him take a step back. He knew his best friend was childish but he never thought about the extent of his childishness before this day. 

"Dazi, please tell me she's not your girlfriend? That's outrageous!" Dylan tried to talk but Darren punched his guts making hunch over while grunting in pain.

"I already said that she's my girlfriend. Besides, outrageous? Didi, do you even realize what outrageous really means? You actually ended up in a police station because you fought with a girl in the middle of a highway! For goodness sake, what the bloody hell were you even thinking?" Darren's interrogation seemed worse them the police officer. Dylan really didn't have a way out of it at all.

"She pulled my hair first. I just called her homosexual. But she broke my car and then pulled my hair. My HAIR! Can you believe that? How can you date someone so brazen and impudent like her?" Dylan had just straightened up when Darren punched him again at the same spot.

"You seriously called my girlfriend lesbian? Have you lost your mind? I knew you were short of some screws in your brain but didn't expect that now, your brain is completely lost!" Darren lifted his leg as if to kick but Dylan took a couple of steps back. However, because there were stairs behind him, Dylan ended up falling on his buttock.

He moaned in pain on the floor as he looked up at Darren and said, "It was just a comment. Did she have to take it to heart?"

Darren slapped his head making him whine like a kid. "It was a comment out of your own assumptions. It wasn't a fact. Besides, even if it was a fact that she's a lesbian, you don't get to say it. Who are you to question someone's sexuality? That's insulting and disrespectful."

Dylan was thoroughly being thrashed by his own best friend. And when Darren finally let him breathe, Dylan said, "Are you really gonna date her? Don't hit me!" He raised his hands in defense and went on, "I'm just asking why her? She's crazy. Literally!"

Darren looked towards the side where his car was parked and said, "Life is too short. Isn't it better to spend it with someone whom you're either crazy for or who makes you want to be crazy together?" Dylan lowered his eyes in thought while Darren looked at him and added, "Besides, why it has to be her... I already answered that question last night."

That's when Dylan recalled how he asked last night, "Would you really consider dating this girl?"

And Darren had replied with, "I'm not sure but something in me wants to try this for once."

Dylan had questioned again, "Why? Why her?"

Darren had a small smile playing on his lips when he replied, "Because she is crazy." Dylan was dumbstruck by his reply. "Sweets is the kind of girl who makes you realize what madness really feels like. Looking at Chen Xiu, I always found her to be an aesthetic beauty that could make people envious. Sweets isn't like that at all. She doesn't hide her imperfections. I know she's silly and outrageously ridiculous at times... But let's be honest, she is real and definitely not boring at all. In my opinion, it's her madness that makes her interesting. She doesn't have the aesthetic beauty but she does have a remarkably candid beauty."

Coming back to the present, Dylan glanced at his best friend and said, "I never thought someone's madness could make them interesting."

Darren chuckled as he said, "Didi, madness is just another name for sanity. Because the person who allows you to see his madness is the only one who can help you find your sanity. Just like the person who once showed us paradise is often the one who left us in hell to burn alone."

Dylan sighed out heavily in defeat as he voiced out, "I'm running out of ideas to dissuade you from dating her. OW! OW!" As someone pulled his ear, Dylan yelped out and turned his head sideways only to widen his eyes and gulp visibly. "What are you doing here?"

"I called her," the answer was given by Darren himself as he turned to the woman who showed up and dared to twist Dylan's ear ruthlessly, "How are you, Xiao Mei?"

"I'm absolutely perfect, Regan. What about you?" The woman who answered seemed to be in her late twenties. She was wearing an elegant and sophisticated dress in peach color. Her black hair reached her shoulders while her beautiful raven eyes were smiling at Darren.

"Same as always," replied Darren.

"Yah! Why did you call her?" Dylan screamed at Darren while trying to get his ear out of her vice-like grip. "Xiao Mei, you better let me go. Didn't you say you won't even see me again? Why are you here then?"

"Who asked you to make trouble? I had to come," replied the woman while glaring at him.

"Sorry, Didi. You told me not to tell your mother. You didn't mention anyone else. But rest assured, Xiao Mei would never tell Beauty Wei." Darren was enjoying himself seeing the condition of his best friend. Why wouldn't he? Who told Dylan to mess with his girlfriend? Didn't he know that Darren had always been possessive and protective about his things and his people? Besides, this time his girlfriend was involved!

"You're just taking revenge for your girlfriend, aren't you?" Dylan obviously understood Darren's intention perfectly well. How could he not? 

"Then who asked you to pull a girl's hair? Is that how you're raised?" Hearing that angry voice beside his ear, Dylan flinched. Today really wasn't his day. First, Xiu was playing him like an arcade and now these two closest people in his life were treating him like dirty laundry.

"Xiao Mei, get your facts straight. His girlfriend pulled my hair first. It was because I'm a good person that I didn't hit her," said Dylan righteously but received a hit on his head from her.

"You come with me, I'll teach you all about how to treat a woman," said the woman while dragging him not before saying to Darren, "Bye, Regan! I'll see you later. But make sure to bring your girlfriend with you."

"I will," replied Darren and waved them off.
