"Om, Uuummm ..."
Maria turned her lips with her eyes closed towards Dylan. Dylan chuckled then pushed softly on the girl's face.
"Heh, kid. It's in there!"
"Hhh, Om insensitive!"
"Not insensitive, Miss. But, it's not time yet. Oh yeah, tell me about Mommy and your Daddy, tonight I'm going to the mansion to talk about our relationship."
"Seriously!" cry Maria with round eyes.
"Yes, Miss. I'm serious" Dylan replied as he opened the car door and prepared to enter.
"Ready, Om Udin! I'll tell my Mommy and Daddy that tonight you're going to visit our house!"
Dylan smiled and got into his car. "Hurry in" said Dylan before he drove the car.
"Okay, bye!"
Maria waved her hand before she ran a little into her school yard. After Maria disappeared from his sight, Dylan immediately drove towards his company.
Dylan was unaware, right behind his car, that Aidan's car was driving along wherever it moved. And while in a quiet place, Aidan overtakes Dylan's car and stops right in front of him.
"Hooft, Aidan!" sigh Dylan while taking a deep breath.
Aidan got out of his car and approached Dylan's car. The man's face was flushed and his jaw was perfectly visible.
"Open!" tell Aidan while knocking on Dylan's windshield violently.
Slowly Dylan opened his car door while preparing himself, who knew Aidan had suddenly attacked him. However, it turned out that the man could still hold back his anger.
"What's up, Aidan?"
"No need to talk, Dylan! Now I'm asking you, what is your relationship with Maria, my future fiance!" aidan growled with a sharp look towards Dylan.
"That's the girl, Aidan. The girl who gave me this bracelet!" sahut Dylan while showing the couple bracelet that is still attached to his wrist.
"Damn it!"
Aidan clenched his hand into the air and wanted to launch it into Dylan's face. However, it was quickly detained by Dylan who had been preparing for the sudden attack from the man.
"Well, you say?! Then what about your attitude of wanting to snatch Maria away from me? Is that good you think, Dylan? Have you forgotten that you are my best friend?!"
Dylan patted Aidan's shoulder gently and continued to try to calm the man down.
"Actually I have no intention of taking anyone away from you, Aidan. Maria and I knew each other before Mr. Marcello and your father set you up with that girl."
"Hmm, excuses! I'm sure you did this intentionally to avenge what I did, right?"
Dylan chuckled softly. "Whatchu mean? Do you think I'm doing this to repay what you did to me? Oh come on, Aidan! Never mind for revenge, I never even remembered the incident."
"All right then! Now we leave everything to the girl! Let him choose one of us. Whether she will choose you or she will choose me to be her future husband" Aidan said, grinning at Dylan.
"Aidan, now I'm asking you, do you love that girl?"
"Yes, of course I love him! I'll do anything for my Maria!" sahut Aidan's.
Dylan exhaled heavily. "If I thought you were just obsessed, Aidan. You never loved Mary. You just want her to be yours, just like the women you've been your lover before."
"Ah, that's bullshit! Now let's just do it like I said. Let Mary choose one of us and I'm pretty sure you'll lose for the umpteenth time, Dylan!"
"Yes, do it."
Dylan turned around and immediately entered his car, and so did Aidan. The man immediately returned to his car and drove away from the place.
"Take your second defeat, Dylan. Amalia used to prefer me because I'm much more established and successful than you! So did Maria, I was pretty sure that she would choose me. Besides I'm a lot cooler, I'm a lot younger than you!"
Aidan collapsed after saying so. She was absolutely certain that Mary would choose her as Amalia, her former lover.
Dylan arrived at the office and headed straight for his room. The man's face looked disheveled, not as usual. He sat down on his favorite chair while rubbing his face violently.
"What's the matter, sir?" asked Mac who had noticed Dylan's disheveled face.
"Aidan just met me, Mac. He wanted Mary to choose one of us just as she used to. I don't know why I'm freaking out, Mac. I remember when Amalia preferred herself and I was afraid it would happen again to Maria" said Dylan, closing her eyes tightly.
"Remain assured, Mr. Dylan. Miss Maria will definitely choose you" said Mac.
