First Words

"I heard Rowan said his first word?"

Both Xiu and Darren shared a look. Rowan was about to celebrate his second birthday in another 2 months. This baby was growing up slowly. However, if one asked Xiu and Darren, they'd say that their son was growing too fast. He was already so difficult to manage by both Xiu and Darren combined!

"Little lass, your brothers are asking something," said Xin Zimen with a smirk playing on his lips. 

"Ah-Xin, don't make me say it," replied Xiu.

Xin Zimen ended up laughing out loud. While his elder brother gave him a look that said, don't-mess-with-my-daughter. But of course, as always, Xin Zimen didn't pay heed to Xin Zemin's expressions.

"I think Rowan learned to call 'Dadda' first instead of 'Mama,'" said Nora. "And that's why Xiu is not telling us what Rowan said." 

Nora played with Rowan saying in a baby voice, "Tell me, baby, did you call 'Dadda'? Just tell me, I won't tell anyone."
