บท 392: We Ain't The Same

"Are you sure you don't want to take a day off?"

The same question was repeated umpteenth time now by Darren since the time he woke up in the morning. He couldn't help it though; Xiu's condition was better but she wasn't completely fine. But she still insisted on going to work. 

"Just because Dylan is your best friend, I can't take advantage of him. I have to work as I should be doing," said Xiu as she placed her hand against his cheek.

Both of them were sitting in the backseat of his car which was now parked right outside the office building. They were the only people in the car since Darren's driver, Ben had already taken the hint and left the car right after parking it. Xiu had to plead so many times before he agreed to let her go to work but here he was being stubborn again. 

"I know. But you're sick," he repeated as if she didn't know her own condition.
