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.
Either because she was really dating some man behind him, or just because
she was fed up with him now, he figured.
Paul thus unfastened the safety belt and got off too.
What are you doing?” Daryl asked with wide eyes.
Paul answered slowly, “Just to have a check.”
A couple went past at that instant, who were scowling at each other as though
about to divorce. Daryl tried to return to the car but was stopped by Paul as
he grasped her by the collar. Their action successfully attracted the attention
of that couple.
The wife was none other than the woman who considered Daryl to be a
mistress and had insinuated her in the class the other day.
As that woman caught sight of Paul, she was immediately stupefied by his
handsome face. And her husband’s face just darkened instantly, making Daryl
very awkward.
That husband seemed to be in such a filthy temper that Daryl swore she
would let Paul regret if he dared to show such a scowl to her.
Daryl…you and your…?” When that woman finally took her eyes off Paul, she
discovered Daryl, who was trying to get away,.
Daryl could only greet her embarrassedly.
Oh mine! Is this your husband?” The woman exclaimed incredulously, “Is he a
film star or professional model?”
No, he doesn’t work in that industry.” answered Daryl. Clearing her throat, she
then hurried to urge Paul, “Go home quickly. I’ll ring you up when the class is
over.”
Go home? Why? Isn’t the class today for both the parents-to-be?” The
woman deliberately mentioned that when she sensed Daryl didn’t want this
handsome man to be seen. She thus unleashed her imagination in a
malicious way since she just needed to vent her anger at her husband who
got a pretty and young mistress during his wife’s pregnancy. That woman
quickly crossed out the possibility that Paul was the one to keep Daryl as his
mistress. Mistresses wouldn’t treat their “hosts” so rudely.
But that handsome chap was holding Daryl’s waist so intimately. They must
be in a relationship.
So Daryl was either having two boyfriends, or keeping her own lover when
she herself was a mistress of someone.
As this envious couple came to such a conclusion, they started to glare at
Daryl as though they had unearthed some ugly truth. That already getting
Daryl annoyed, Paul just got her even more irritable by asking “A class for
both parents-to-be? Why didn’t you let me know?”
It was so difficult for Daryl to explain now. Not an important course anyway.
No calls to get you all the way here for that.”
Yet her classmate added deliberately with a dry amusement, “But the coach
said this course could improve the relationship between the couple, and help
socializing.”
Socializing was not Paul’s thing, but he was obviously very fond of the other
function of the course. “I shall attend the class, said he.
Or you just wait for me in the car?” Daryl suggested.
Paul’s stubborn gaze fixed on Daryl, implying her that it was impossible to
change his mind.
Daryl could only sigh with resignation, “Okay.
A sudden silence fell as Daryl and Paul entered the room.
Daryl’s appearance was already quite outstanding despite the pregnancy, and
Paul just got every woman present drooling over his handsome face as
though totally forgetting the social etiquette of their class.
And that of course displeased their mates.
Paul frowned lightly. “So many people here! He had never been a fan of the
crowd. “Why don’t you get a one-to-one training?
That would be a waste of money.” replied Daryl. “Isn’t it nice to meet up with
different people from time to time?”
There was then something flickering in Daryl’s eyes as an idea occurred to her.
But you can still go back now, since you dislike the crowd so much.”
Paul stood in front of her in a natural way, blocking the impolite gaze at her.
“No, I won’t.” said he firmly.
This couple seemed to be an exception amongst the crowd where everyone
was trying to chum up with one another. Daryl was avoiding every possible
chance to let out her identity while Paul didn’t bother to talk to anyone at all.
Their behavior just reinforced the misconception that Paul was Daryl’s gigolo,
thanks to the implication given by the couple near them.
Paul only played with Daryl’s hair, showing no interest in the opinion of others.
He didn’t even bother to respond when there was occasional greeting to him.
This couple just enjoyed their own moments at the corner, totally forgotten by
the class.
Daryl thought she would have to choose a new course after today.
At that moment, she overheard some familiar words from the conversation
nearby. As she listened carefully, she found out the subject they were envying
was a classmate who was going to arrive soon with her husband–a highranking executive in Paul’s company.
Daryl’s heart did a flip.
Although Paul seldom let his picture spread in public, those high-ranking
executives must have seen him.
Daryl hastened to leave the classroom, grabbing Paul by the arm. Yet they
just ran into a couple at the door, the wife leading her husband complacently
and the husband holding the wife gingerly.
Several people hurried to go up, exchanging polite pleasantries with them.
Daryl was about to take the leave with Paul successfully when the woman
they’d met downstairs stopped them.
Where are you going, Daryl? The class is to begin soon.” That woman raised
her voice deliberately.
A suddenly silence fell.
That “high-ranking executive’, who had been receiving people’s greeting with
dignity, was now gawking at Daryl and Paul. His nervous remark then got the
whole class to act likewise.
