"I heard Rowan said his first word?"
Both Xiu and Darren shared a look. Rowan was about to celebrate his second birthday in another 2 months. This baby was growing up slowly. However, if one asked Xiu and Darren, they'd say that their son was growing too fast. He was already so difficult to manage by both Xiu and Darren combined!
"Little lass, your brothers are asking something," said Xin Zimen with a smirk playing on his lips.
"Ah-Xin, don't make me say it," replied Xiu.
Xin Zimen ended up laughing out loud. While his elder brother gave him a look that said, don't-mess-with-my-daughter. But of course, as always, Xin Zimen didn't pay heed to Xin Zemin's expressions.
"I think Rowan learned to call 'Dadda' first instead of 'Mama,'" said Nora. "And that's why Xiu is not telling us what Rowan said."
Nora played with Rowan saying in a baby voice, "Tell me, baby, did you call 'Dadda'? Just tell me, I won't tell anyone."
"Talk like a human with my son," said Xiu. "Don't use that baby voice again."
Nora glared at Xiu, "I'm your sister-in-law now. Talk nicely."
"Okay, my dearest sister-in-law, my son is a human. Talk to him like a human," said Xiu in a cheeky way making Nora want to slap her face. How was that any different than what she said earlier? It was all the same!
"I am talking like a human," answered Nora.
Nora and Ah-Si got married about two months ago. So these two have been traveling with their daughter for the past two months. And surprisingly, Ah-Si even managed to drag Xiao Li along with him. But all of that was possible because Ah-Si mentioned how Asteria needed some change in her life and environment. Xiao Li being Xiao Li, actually felt like his daughter needed a change. And since it was already summer vacation, he didn't find it wrong to take his daughter out.
But while they all were gone, Rowan actually said his word. It was such a coincidence that both Xin Zimen and Xin Zemin had come over to see their grandson when Rowan spoke his first word. And they both became the lucky grandfathers who heard Rowan talk.
"So what did he say exactly?" questioned Xiao Li. "Why is everyone's reaction so weird?"
Xin Zimen chuckled before saying, "It won't be fun in this way." He raised his voice and called, "Serve the dinner."
"Dad, I thought you're gonna..." Xiao Li didn't continue since he honestly didn't know what to say what his father just did.
Xin Zimen gave his son a mysterious smile as they all gathered for dinner. Xiu put Rowan on his baby seat and stared at her son long and hard before helplessly shaking her head.
As soon as the meal was served, a milky voice was heard, "Meat! Meat! Meat!"
Xiu's lips twitched when she heard it and looked at Darren who pressed his lips together to stop himself from laughing. However, Nora wasn't as reserved as him, since she instantly burst out laughing.
"Oh my gosh! He actually is a meat fan!"
Xiu facepalmed herself and turned to her son, "Have you been that hungry for meat in your last life?"
"Actually, it's your own fault sister Xiu," said Ah-Si.
"How is it my fault?" questioned Xiu as her eyes trained on her brother.
"Well, you're the one who started calling him little tiger. Tigers love meat, they can't possibly be herbivores!"
Surprisingly, Xiu felt like her brother made a lot of sense. Maybe it was really her fault that her son turned into a meat fanatic. So much so that his very first words had been 'MEAT!' Xiu didn't know what to say to that. Her dear son didn't even learn t call mama or papa but he certainly knew what he wanted to eat.
Clapping his hands together, even now, Rowan was cheerfully calling, "Rice! Rice! Tomato soup! Tomato Soup!" He spoke in such a cute manner that no one could possibly even get mad at him. At least, no one else could apart from Xiu.
"Xiu, he is a certified foodie like you," said Nora as she giggled happily. This was too amusing. She never thought she'd get to see something like this in her life.
Which kid would learn the names of his favorite food first instead of his parents?
Certainly, there could be only one kid like that, and that had to be Xiu's kid. Since there was only one eccentric Xiu!
Xiu poked her son's cheek saying, "Your food is all yours! Stop yelling! I'll give it all to you!"
Only after saying that did she started feeding her son who happily ate his food. When in front of food, her son would forget all about the world. Just like her, his only focus was on the food before his eyes.
"My grandson is such a sweetheart," said Xin Zimen. "Look at him. Look how he is eating heartily. Just looking at him makes me feel hungry."
"Then eat more, Ah-Xin," said Xiu.
"How many people heard Rowan talking?" asked Xiao Li.
"All the ones who are here right now," answered Darren. "It was summer vacation and everyone had been out for fun."
"Why didn't you both go out?" asked Nora.
Darren took a look at his wife and said, "Rowan is too young and he doesn't seem to like this weather. So, we had to stay home."
"Wow! Rowan doesn't like summer? That's just like Xiu," said Nora. "This mother-son duo is really alike already."
"Why are you jealous?" asked Xiu.
Nora made a face at Xiu, "Actually, I am jealous! My daughter missed you so much on our trip. Both Asteria and Ava kept talking about how fun it would have been if you had come along."
"At least, someone is loyal," retorted Xiu clearly pointing out how Nora left her behind but at least, her nieces were loyal to her.
"Oh, well... I can't seem to be that loyal," Nora shot back as she stuck her tongue out at her.
