While Xiu was pursing her lips at Darren's remark, Nora had burst out laughing. Xiu slapped the back of Nora's head and said, "What are you talking about, McSpicy?"
Darren stared at her face with his full attention this time. Her words confirmed Darren's thoughts. She didn't forget last night but she was willing to pretend she did. Sigh! This realization was a bit disappointing.
"Nothing, Sweets," replied Darren and turned to talk to Nora about the exhibition at her hotel that his company was sponsoring.
But our Nora didn't forget to give him a thumbs-up as she said, "Neighbor, you really know how to talk. I'm impressed." Darren pressed his lips together and said nothing in reply.
Meehee's words of the day:
Learn your flaws every day and accept them. They're the ones that make you different and beautiful.
