Chapter 2020
Stefan walked to Renee. He felt very sorry for her, and kept his head low as he looked at her. However, he had to keep his feelings hidden...
"Hey, how are you?" Stefan's low voice came from above Renee. It sounded surreal, like a dream in the vacant corridor.
"Who are you...?"
Feeling dizzy, Renee kept her posture without raising her head. She was slurring her words.
At first, she didn't feel much after gulping down glass after glass of white wine. However, it began to take effect and turned her dizzy after a while. She felt like her body and soul were separated.
Honestly, she liked this kind of feeling. She rarely got so drunk after becoming a mother because she had to be a role model for her children.
"I'm your destiny..." Stefan replied. Since Renee was drunk, he stopped pretending to be aloof and distant. He sat down beside her, and faked a smile. "Can you share your thoughts with me?"
"My destiny?" Finally, Renee looked up and blinked at him. "What do you mean?"
"Well..." After some contemplation, Stefan made a joke. 'I'm your destined Mr. Right."
"Pfft! Hahaha! That's hilarious! Are you out of your mind?" Renee burst into laughter, now seeing double. "You're so cheesy! No one else can be compared to you."
Stefan pursed his lips, embarrassed. He looked at her seriously, and asked, "Are you sober or drunk?"
It wasn't the first time he saw her drunk, but he had also seen her acting drunk. At the moment, Stefan found it hard to tell whether she was actually drunk or not.
"Of course I'm sober!" Renee sat up straight, but she couldn't speak clearly.
"Oh, I see." Stefan nodded. He could tell from her expression that she was actually drunk. Subconsciously, he smirked. "Well, who am I?"
"You..." Renee staggered, and got closer to him. Her eyes grew wide as she studied him carefully. Then, she burped. "You're a mushroom."
Stefan was both flabbergasted and amused. "What do you mean?"
"Your head looks very much like a mushroom...." Renee stood up and patted his head. In a daze, she said, "Come on. Wake up, mushroom. Say goodbye to your parents. I'm going to pick you and bring you home!"
"I don't understand that." Stefan sat on the stairs, watching Renee as she caressed and patted his head. He doubted if she wanted to trick him by using the excuse that she was drunk.
Given her muddle-headed look, though, it didn't seem like she was faking it.
Stefan recalled the time they accidentally drank some mushroom soup and got food poisoning many years ago. At that time, Renee got very muddle-headed. She tore his hair, and claimed she wanted to catch all villains for him.
At that time, they hadn't undergone so many hardships. They were still very confident in their future.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
