"Is that a condom?" One of the valets impulsively asked.

For a moment, the crowd did nothing but stare at the foil packet in Dr. Cyan's hand. Everyone was speechless, unsure of what to think of and what to say at the moment. Even the doctor himself couldn't believe what he just saw. ​​

Xhemin's face was full shocked. She looked at the foil packet in Dr. Cyan's hand and gaped open at the view of it.

If she could crawl into a hole, burrow in it comfortably and probably live out the rest of her days in it, then she would gladly do that right now.

Why does everyone have to see that thing?

Of all the things—why does it had to be that condom?

That's was the third time now that a condom had defeated her in one single strike!

How unfortunate!

Condom, 3. Xhemin, 0.

All these silly thoughts came popping in her.In panic, Xhemin went to snatch the thing from the doctor instantly.

"I don't think that this is a condom" She said, denying the fact as she hold out and hid the thing away in her own pockets.

"Little Miss? Was that yours?" Caught off by Xhemin's sudden charge, the doctor who was still in his shell-shocked, confused expression asked the girl.

"Of course not! "Xhemin denied and let out a fake little laugh to sway everyone's attention.

"Little Miss, do you know what that thing is?" the doctor asked further unconvinced with Xhemin's words.

"Of course I know!" She exclaimed, but to her dismay, her answer only brought another shock cry from the crowd.

"I mean…." Seeing how the crowd reacted to her answer she bit her bottom lip. "What I mean is that we have sex education at school" She explained hoping her voice will not waver and say the right words she needed at the time. She can't succumb to the humiliation because it would only make things worse, she thought.

Dr. Cyan was staring at the girl so hard that Xhemin had to look away to escape his probing gaze.

"Little Miss, this behaviour right here is something I cannot tolerate! God! What am I do" Dr. Cyan cupped his head. The things he had witnessed today was giving him a headache—the little miss and the young master's deeds were too much for him to handle.

"Dr. Cyan…I think you are misjudging the fact" Darryl spoke for the first time in a cool nonchalant way.

"Young master, I know what I have seen and with all due respect—

"The condom belongs to Manager Song" Darryl cut off the doctor's words as if he had much of his nagging.

"Mine?" Manager Song's eyes bulged in shock as everyone—from Dr. Cyan to the valets turned to his side.

"Yes" Darryl said glaring at him, giving him a fair warning not to deny it. "You drop it this morning in the car seat and I picked it up for you. I thought of throwing it away but we were on the road so I hid it in my suit. It probably fell from there earlier"

"I apologize young master for my carelessness. It will not happen next time. I'll make sure things like those are hidden properly" Manager Song bowed before the crowd, taking all the guilt. He had no choice of course but to save the young master. He sighed and allowed himself a moment of self-pity for having such a beastly boss.

Damn this Lagdameo heir. His wittiness strikes off as an innocent bullying act against him.

"Manager Song?" Dr. Cyan's probing turned to him "Is that true?"

"Forgive me for the confusion it brought" the manager added. The injustice that he has to suffer right now left him fuming but he had to swallow it all down to save his boss ass.

"What's your business here?" Darryl changed the topic suddenly to put an end to the tension.

"Young master, I thought the girl might already be hungry so I had the servants pack up some food for the both of you" Manager Song explained.

"Food? " Xhemin exclaimed unconsciously with sparkling eyes. A lot of things happened earlier and so she didn't notice her stomach's call. Now that the food was on the topic, well of course her stomach started protesting.

"Had it set up and leave the girl and I. We had many things to talk about" He instructed. Clearly, he didn't want their company, yet seeing how the girl salivated over the thought of food made him thankful for Managers Song's thoughtfulness.

Hearing the young master's request, the valets started preparing the food. They stretch out a picnic blanket over a flat grassy surface and spread a good amount of food for the couple. In no time, the lunch was ready and Xhemin dive herself into it without minding everyone.

"Leave…"Darryl echoed off again to their unwanted company.

"Young Master, please let me—" Dr. Cyan who was still not comfortable of leaving the two behind tried to persuade Darryl but only end up being cut off again.

"You have many other things to do I believe" Darryl alleged, not giving the doctor a chance at all to render his plea.

Soon, the place was emptied again with the exception of the two couple who was sitting unsophisticatedly in the picnic blanket. Xhemin chewed out all the food that she can to make herself full while Darryl was just watching her in amusement.

"I didn't know you are a full pledged glutton" Darryl said as he gave the girl his perfect Lagdameo grin.

"Say no more" Xhemin responded. With all honesty, the food came in unexpectedly after the boy tormented her mentally and emotionally and so she kind of loss her control over the mouth-watering dishes.

However, now that she was full, her lunch time demeanour left her a little bit a shame, but she thought it didn't matter by now since the boy had seen it all.

She grabbed a table napkin to wipe herself clean but even before she could get one, Darryl took it and started rubbing it to her cheeks and lips gently. She shivered uncomfortably over his gesture but sat steadily so not to make it hard for the boy.

"What was it that we need to talk about?" She asked, not because she was interested but because she needed to say something to shoo all the rising feelings away.

"Huh?" Darryl raised an eyebrow at her.

"You told Manager Song there were many things we need to talk about"

"Oh that" Darryl's expression changed and Xhemin caught the hesitation in his eyes."There's something I want to ask if you don't mind"

"What is it about?" innocently she asked.

"About your grandfather" Darryl breathe out deep before he said those words.
