Dingxiang, Tang Wie and James were discreetly tried to play a Video CD at Dingxiang's house. They were in the living room. Every windows and door they closed and locked from inside. While James tried to press play, the screen went green. He fixed the old VCD player by trying to connect the cable. After a while the screen went on but no sound detected. The boys eyes open wider watching the naked scenes from the screen.
Dingxiang: "Oh, come on! James go fix the sound."
James: " I am dude! It won't work!"
Suddenly a childish voice broke the silence.
"What are you watching?" A straight voice really spoke right next to Dingxiang's right ear. All of the boys' face darken and turned to horror. The three boys immediately looking at the chubby girl standing next to them.
Paused 1, 2, 3...
"Why are they no clothes on?" Kiara kept on asking while her eyes stuck to the screen.
"Arrggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! Kiara closed you eyes!!. Shouted Dingxiang and stood up tried to undo the situation. The trio tried to cover the big old tv.
After they came to their sense Dingxiang hurriedly unplugged the tv socket which eventually the small burst came out from the tv box. They all paniked and hurriedly ran away from the living room. Dingxiang carried the stuffed body of Kiara out from the house. The ran straight to the yard in front of the house. Kiara chuckled and laughed while she was carried away by Dingxiang in his arm just like carried the rugby ball.
Kiara: "That was fun!"
Dingxiang : "...."
He breathed out and in heavily as they had ran in the hasty. He bent and both of his hands supported his upper body by holding on his knees.
Tang Wie : "...."
James : "......"
They all stood at the Dingxiang's yard. It was already growing dusk when the boys and Kiara sprinted outside of the house. Their figures were not too obvious standing at the lawn.
Tang Wie looked into Dingxiang's eyes and signaling to him about Kiara.
"Kiara, do you like to be carried like that? I can carry you if you promised me something." Dingxiang tried to negotiate with little Kiara who he thought was easy to tackle.
Kiara nodded like a chicken with eagerness.
Kiara: "When can you carry me like that again?"
Tang Wei: " Do you remember what happened ... just now?"
I hope she would forget about the video cd.
"I remember everything!" After listening to the confession, the boys' face darken and miserably. They started to see Teddy's cold face.
All of a sudden Dingxiang held and carried Kiara and running around on the beautiful lawn. Kiara spreading her both hands and flew in Dingxiang's embraced. After a few rounds, Dingxiang was almost fainted because out of the breath.
To carry Kiara who weighed 50kg in her 8th years old was way too hard for him. Both of them stumbled and lying on the lawn. Kiara climbed Dingxiang's chest and listened to his quick heart beats. Dup! Dup! Dup! Dup!
Kiara patted his chest after a while listening to the heart beats. Dingxiang coughed and tried to catch the air. Seeing Dingxiang was panted hard she cried and hugged him back on the lawn.
Kiara: " Dingxiang...I'm sorry. Don't die."
In his desperate for air, Dingxiang still able to create a smirk from his upper lips. He continued to act and made it exaggerated. As she saw Dingxiang suddenly became worst, she realized something was off. She just sat there and looked him acting poorly. When he didn't hear any flagrant from Kiara, he looked up to her. In her hiccups she shot him with her eyes then biting him in the chest. He yelled out loud and pressed his left nipple. Kiara stood up then ran to her house in bawling eyes.
Listened to the cries of his sister, Teddy came out from the kitchen. He was standing at outside of their cars porch with his both hands rested on his waist. He tried to understand the situation.
Kiara ran toward him. He picked up his sister and asked her why. Her dark curly haired was a mess together with her wet face, he wiped her face with his own shirt.
Dingxiang gulped his saliva watching the brother's fierce face was looking at him. Like a magnet his legs walking toward them. James and Tang Wei were nowhere to be found.
Damned you guys! This what you called brotherhood?? Dingxiang cursed James and Tang Wei in his heart.
"I'm so sorry. I was just joking."
Teddy: "There was no single day she would not cried after meeting you, wasn't there?"
Dingxiang: "Well bro..."
He was totally dumbfounded. It was damned true. He played back his mind for the whole week. Indeed was right, she eventually crying after had had meeting him. Whether it was intended or not, the result was still the same.
Dingxiang sighed. "I'm sorry Kiara." He patted her back who was in his big brother's cuddle. Kiara clung to Teddy's neck and cried until she got hiccups. She buried her face in his shoulder. The brother brought her back into the house. Dingxiang walked slowly to his house. He was feeling miserable for what had happened to his neighbour sweet and adorable little bear.
