Imperfect Desires

Chapter 979 - Magic



Chapter 979 - Magic

Since Xiu won't allow those two bro-cons to come and see Rowan, that little ancestor had a video call with his two sisters in his bedroom.

"Is Xiuxiu really angry?" asked Ava.

"Is that even a question, Ava?" retorted Asteria. "Don't you already know Xiuxiu?"

"Mommy didn't even let me eat my favorite food," Rowan complained to his sisters.

"Aiyo, my poor brother," said Ava.

"Rowan, don't worry. Okay? You have us here," said Asteria like the big sister she was. "I'll bring you snacks."

"Mommy won't let you come and see me," said Rowan with a pout.

"You don't worry about that," said Asteria. "I'll get your snacks to you in any way possible."

"Ria Jie, don't do anything reckless again," advised Rowan. "Last time, you tried to climb up the tree for me and fell down. Mommy was super mad at me for that."

"Relax, I won't take any risk this time around. This time, I'll be playing smart," ?ssured Asteria.

"But what should we do about Xiuxiu's anger?" inquired Ava in worry. "How will I eat those delicious food made by Xiuxiu if I'm not even allowed to come over? My mom can't even make instant noodles right."

"Nora is not that bad," argued Rowan. "She isn't just used to cooking. But she is my fun-loving auntie, so no words against her."

"She is a fun-loving auntie, she definitely isn't a fun-loving mom," retorted Ava. She felt depressed even thinking about how different Nora's treatment was towards her own daughter and her nephew, Rowan. Seriously, she looked like a whole different person.

"Moms are never cool," said Rowan in his sticky-sweet voice.

Both his sisters who always stood beside him, gave him a look right now, "Darling, you definitely don't get to say that. You have the world's coolest mom ever!"

"What she is doing to me right now is so not cool," argued Rowan.

"Of course, Xiuxiu has her own reason," Asteria spoke up for Xiu. "I don't think Xiuxiu is upset that we got into a fight. If there is one person in our family who loves fights then that's Xiuxiu. There is no way she is angry with us because we beat someone up."

Ava also nodded her head in agreement, "I agree with that. There has to be another reason we aren't able to see." She tapped her chin thoughtfully, "I got it!"

"You did?" both Asteria and Rowan were surprised to hear that. Because usually, Ava was the last one to understand things. She was just that clueless in life but that also made her one of the happiest people around them.

"Rowan, I think it's because you didn't take responsibility for your actions," said Ava. "I remember when I was young, I broke her phone but to hide it, I lied. Later on, she was really upset. I even got my dad to buy her a new phone but in the end, the problem was that I didn't own up to my mistake. I just ended up avoiding it. All I had to do was say sorry to her."

"Surprisingly, I actually agree with her," stated Asteria. "That can definitely be the reason behind Xiuxiu's anger. Although we were the ones who beat those boys up, however, it doesn't change the fact that it started because of you. But you ended up shirking the responsibility. There is a high possibility that's what got on her nerve."

Rowan supported his face on his small and soft hands, looking all serious. But even in seriousness, his lips were puckered up cutely that could melt anyone's heart. He was already a sight that could turn one into a puddle. With that white, soft skin along with his big grey eyes that could blink into one's heart and that head full of shaggy black hair, he was too cute for one's health.

And currently, this package of cuteness was acting all serious as he pondered over what had he done to make his mother angry with him? Even he knew that his mother was way too easy-going than his classmates' mothers. But Xiu also had her own principles. She was willing to indulge him as long as it didn't hurt anyone.

However, when it came to serious things, she'd never indulged him. It wasn't even his first time getting a lecture from his mother. When it came to who is scarier in his family, he'd always say it's his mother. In fact, his father was the real laid-back person in life.

"I don't know what you're gonna do," started Ava. "But please coax our Xiuixu or else we won't be able to go camping this weekend. And I've been looking forward to that for so long."

"Camping is the only thing in your head right now, right?" It was more of a statement from Asteria rather than a question.

"I have priorities," answered Ava with a grin.

"I also wanna go camping," said Rowan. "Baba said he'd teach me how to fish."

"I'll also try my best to see what I can do," said Asteria.

"Should I try my flattering skills on Xiuxiu?" asked Ava. "It always works."

"I'll go and ask Baba," responded Rowan. "He is good at it. Mommy can't stay upset with Baba even for a minute."

"It's Uncle Regan who gets restless if Xiuxiu doesn't pay attention to him even for a minute."

"Isn't that weird though?" asked Ava. "Even my parents have cold wars."

"I don't think my parents can have cold wars. They only have wars in which they both scream at each other one minute and then enter their bedroom."

Asteria coughed out loud at Rowan's words and rebuked him, "Stop paying so much attention to them."

"I'm not," he answered. "But it's hard not to notice when their fights start from the living room and always end up in the bedroom.." He had been wondering what they had been doing in the bedroom though? They always got even stickier after each of their fights. What kind of a magic was that?
