The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Aaron lowered his gaze and kept quiet.
The partition Xante raised to separate the front seat from the back seat had very poor sound insulation. She could hear what
they were both talking about behind her. ‘I never would’ve thought that Aaron would one day be in such a sorry state! He
deserves it though.’
She fished out a box of ladies’ cigarettes from her handbag and took one cigarette out. She was about to light it up when the car
door suddenly opened. Sunny sat in angrily and snatched it away.
Xante frowned. “What are you doing?”
“I don’t like it when you smoke!” Sunny said with a sullen face.
Xante ignored him and took out a new cigarette from the cigarette box.
Sunny snatched that away too. “Girls shouldn’t smoke!”
Xante became a little impatient. “You can’t control me.”
Sunny said seriously, “Who else is going to control you if I don’t? I’m your boyfriend!”
“Don’t flatter yourself,” Xante smirked. “I simply didn’t reject you. I never agreed to you being my boyfriend.”
Sunny frowned. “What nonsense are you talking about? I am your boyfriend! We’ve slept together!”
Xante adjusted her gold-rimmed spectacles. “I can’t even begin to count the number of men I’ve slept with. You’re not the only
one. Are you saying they’re all my boyfriends?”
She took out another cigarette from her cigarette box and put it in her mouth. Since two of her cigarettes had been swiped away,
she had the foresight to avoid Sunny. After lighting the cigarette, she took a puff and exhaled the smoke into Sunny’s face. “Don’t
have a fling with me if you’re going to catch feelings. It’s not fun anymore if you take this seriously.”
Sunny frowned and emphasized. “It’s not a fling!”
Xante smirked and took another puff of her cigarette. “It is to me!”
Sunny gritted his teeth in disbelief. “You’re being ridiculous! You said before that you like me!”

“I do!” Xante replied frivolously. “Who doesn’t like a young, hot stud? You’re not the only young boy I like. I like plenty of other
young boys!”
Sunny was incensed. “You...”
Xante placed the cigarette between her lips and looked at Lucas’s vehicle nearby. “Didn’t your brother stop you from coming to
me?”
“He can’t stop me even if he wanted to!” Sunny retorted. “I listen to him when it comes to other matters, but I won’t listen to him
when it comes to yours! You don’t have to worry that my family will disagree with our relationship. Corinne is my half-sister, and
she’ll help us! Her words carry a lot of weight with Lucas, and he won’t object as long as she approves of us!”
Xante took a puff of his cigarette and said disapprovingly, “I won’t marry you even if your family gives the green light! Don’t
overthink.”
Sunny was angry, but above all, he was hurt. “Why? Why won’t you marry me?”
Xante looked at him past the wisps of smoke. “Because I haven’t had enough fun yet.”
Sunny gritted his teeth and had a sullen expression. He had never been treated so flippantly before. Rather than get angry,
however, he took a deep breath and said, “Then I’ll wait for you to have your fill of fun! I don’t mind. I’m still young, and I have
plenty of time to wait!”
Xante paused for a moment and stared thoughtfully at Sunny. “What do you like about me?”
Sunny snorted. “I don’t know!”
“Then why are you so determined when you can’t even give me a reason why you like me? You need to sober up!” Xante
remarked.
Sunny growled. “You’re the one who needs to sober up. My mind is very clear!”
