Imperfect Desires

107 A Trip To Police Station

It was around 7 o\'clock at night when they left the club and Dylan offered to drive her back. Since Xiu didn\'t want to call Darren to such a place, she took Dylan\'s offer and settled in the passenger seat.

"Sir, you okay?" Xiu asked.

"Yes, I am absolutely fine. Why?" Dylan retorted indifferently.

"You look really really mad," said Xiu in a straightforward manner.

Dylan snickered as he said, "I do look like I\'m really really mad but actually, I\'m just really really depressed." Xiu\'s brows quirked up in surprise as he added, "I don\'t like people degrading others to feel good about themselves."

"Is that why you didn\'t let me pour them a drink?" She questioned purely out of curiosity.

Dylan gave her a brief glance before looking back towards the road as he said, "If I\'d let you pour them a drink, I wouldn\'t even be able to face myself. No business deal can outweigh your dignity and respect. I\'m childish but I do know that women are not toys. I can\'t play with them just because I\'m bored with myself."

"Do you know, I wanted to murder you when you called me to the office this morning?" Dylan didn\'t know why but he wasn\'t surprised at all when she said that. "But not anymore. You are indeed petty and childish but you also have some plus points."

Dylan gave a small smile and asked, "Any specific reason for the murder plans?"

"You ruined my first date with my boyfriend," replied Xiu matter-of-factly.

But Dylan\'s attention was on something else as he said, "Boyfriend? Did you break up with your girlfriend or something? You both looked good together though. I was a bit surprised to see a girl couple at first but later, I found you both really adorable together."

"Stop the car," said Xiu and because of her sharp tone, without considering that they were on the highway, he parked the car at the side.

"What\'s wrong?" He asked looking at her strange expression.

"You think I\'m homosexual?" inquired Xiu with complex emotion.

"Yeah, I used to think that. But now, I just learned that you\'re actually bisexual. That\'s really shocking." Xiu\'s mouth opened wide at his words as she breathed through her mouth to calm herself.

"Sir, would you give me your phone please," she extended her hand towards him and Dylan eyed her hand for a while in confusion but still gave his phone to her.

Xiu took his phone, pushed open the door of the car and got out. Coming right at the front of his car, she aimed his metal cased phone directly at his windshield.

"Crack..." The windshield was chipped because of her perfect angle and the weight of the phone.

Dylan came out of his car with a horrified look as he glared at Xiu. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Who told you to call me a lesbian?" She screamed at him on the highway while the speeding cars were zooming past them. "It\'s your fault for running your stupid brain in all the wrong directions."

"How dare you hurt my car for that?" Dylan snapped back at her. "And is it my fault that you had such an ambiguous public display of affection with that girl whoever she was."

"She\'s my best friend for God\'s sake. How is anything ambiguous in that?" Xiu kicked his headlight with her heel breaking that as well.

Dylan held her wrist to pull her away from his car and said, "Why are you taking it out on my car?" Xiu gave him a look before she lifted her hand and pulled his hair making him yelp. "Ouch! Ouch! Stop that!"

"Well, you said I should not touch your car then you should be your car\'s replacement because I\'m very angry right now," said Xiu.

Dylan held himself back for a moment before he also pulled her hair. Obviously, he couldn\'t bring himself to hit her in any other way. So, he chose the most childish way he could think of. "Hey, let go of my hair." Xiu tugged at his hair with force.

He did the same and said, "You let go first."

"No, you first."

"No way, I don\'t trust you at all. You have to let go first."

"Why don\'t you both just let go?"

Xiu and Dylan stared at each other with confusion because they both had not said it. As they turned around, they saw two police officers standing beside them.

"Mister, Miss please let go of each other," the officer spoke politely and Xiu and Dylan had to let go reluctantly but they both didn\'t stop glaring at each other with venom. "Now, would you like telling us why are you both fighting on a highway?"

"She broke my car," Dylan pointed at Xiu without holding back at all.

Xiu also wanted to speak but how was she supposed to say it? "He started it," she replied.

"Oh, really? What did I say?" Dylan asked with amusement dancing in his eyes.

"Now, you\'re just being a jerk," said Xiu.

"And who forced me to act like a jerk? I love my cars, don\'t you know that? How can you hurt my baby?" Dylan was like a whining kid at this point.

"Well, if you had not assumed me to be... You know what then I wouldn\'t have done this at all," screamed Xiu at the top of her lungs.

Both police officers held them back before they could start another catfight and said, "If you both didn\'t come to a conclusion here, I\'ll have to take you to the precinct."

"Oh, I always wanted to go to police station," said both Xiu and Dylan simultaneously and turned to glare at each other before huffing and turning to look away.

"First, you parked the car on a busy road, breaking traffic rules then you started a fight in the middle of the road. You both are coming with us," said the other police officer and took them towards the police car.Please go to
