The Day I Kissed An Older Man

However, Annie had somewhere else in mind. “No, please don’t send me home. Drop me off at Newmoon Group instead.”
Sunny instantly perked up when he heard ‘Newmoon Group’.
“Why are you going there so early in the morning?” he asked.
Annie thought she should at least explain herself to Marcus face-to-face after their conversation yesterday. Otherwise, she would
be haunted by their last conversation which did not end well.
“I need to talk to someone there...”
The car started driving away slowly.
“Mister Sunny, should I drop you off at school first, or should I drop Miss Annie off at Newmoon Group first?” asked the driver.
Newmoon Group was on the way to Sunny’s school.
“I still have plenty of time before school starts, so you can drop her off at Newmoon Group first,” replied Sunny.
“As you wish, Mister Sunny.”
The car started moving toward the direction of Newmoon Group.
Sunny crossed his arms and said, “If I’ve guessed correctly, you must be going there to talk to Aaron.”
Annie instinctively frowned at the mention of Aaron. “No! This has nothing to do with you, so quit your speculation.”
Sunny lifted his chin arrogantly. “Oh, please. You can drop the act. I could tell you like him the moment I saw you two together.”
Annie glared at him and said angrily, “I’m not putting up an act. I’m really not going there to look for Aaron.”
Sunny scoffed. “Who else could it be then? It’s not like I’ll laugh at you if you admit it. I’d be happy for you, because you’ll be
doing me a favor if you can convince Aaron to be your boyfriend.”
“Doing you a favor? How so?” asked Annie, not understanding what Sunny was getting at.
Sunny’s face turned pink, but even so, he maintained his arrogance. “It’s because of my girlfriend, of course. I mean, how can I
not be worried when Xante and Aaron live together? Anyone could tell with one glance that Aaron is a player. I hope you can

make him your boyfriend so that he’ll stay far away from Xante.”
Annie frowned. She then said loudly, “You’re overthinking things! Miss Xante and Mister Aaron are just good friends. I’d say
they’re more like family since they grew up together. You don’t have to ever worry about them ending up together. No matter how
much of a player Aaron is, he still has his principles. He’s really not as bad as you think he is.”
Sunny narrowed his eyes. “And you say you don’t like him. Look at the way you’re jumping to his defense when I called him a
player. If that’s not you liking him, then I don’t know what it is.”
“Why you...”
“Why me what?” said Sunny with a smirk. “The reason you’re mad is because I’m right!”
Annie wished she could punch him, but they were very close to Newmoon Group at that moment. She happened to see Xante
standing at the entrance from her car window.
“Ahem! Seems to me like you’re the delusional one, Sunny. You call yourself Miss Xante’s boyfriend, but she never accepted
you, right? Are you sure it’s not just a one-sided love affair on your part?”
Sunny crossed his arms and said confidently, “Nonsense! I’m not delusional. Xante likes me and I like her too, so that makes us
boyfriend and girlfriend.”
Annie smirked and pointed to his car window. “Then why don’t you look outside and see if you can still be that confident?”
“What are you talking about?” Sunny assumed Annie was just bluffing, but he turned around anyway.
His handsome face immediately froze, his pupils shrank, and his jaws tightened when he saw Xante standing and chatting
intimately with a man outside of Newmoon Group building.
