"One year, one second... You're still older." Tom raised his eyebrow and refuted Rain's opinion. He was so involved in the conversation that he ignored Duke.
"That's enough. Just shut up for a second!" Duke yelled at Tom and Rain. Tom made an irresponsible guess and left him floored. Rain was just no help at all. Both of them were annoying him.
At that point, everyone fell silent. This was the straw that broke the cal's back. Duke had just lost it, and no one wanted to be on the receiving end of that. They'd seen Duke angry, and they figured the best thing to do was to help him calm down.
Daisy had no idea what was happening in the lobby. She smiled when she saw Belinda co out of the bathroom.
"What? Stop smiling like that." Belinda walked to the basin, washed her hands, and rinsed her mouth. Vomit tasted nasty on the best of days. Belinda didn't like Daisy's smile, though. She felt terrible right now, and thought Daisy was laughing at her.
"When was the last ti you had your period?" Daisy leaned on the wall and kept that knowing smile on her face. She was implying sothing with her facial expressions. But it was driving Belinda nuts trying to figure out what.
"What in the actual -- why do you ask? You think I can use it as an excuse to avoid Duke?" Belinda pulled a paper towel from the dispenser and dried her hands.
"You can use it as an excuse, but that's not why I asked. Did you use birth control every ti you made love?" Daisy was trying to be calm, trying to act as a ntor. But she forgot how innocent she was when she was pregnant with Justin.
"No! What is wrong with you?" Belinda knew Daisy was implying sothing, but she didn't know what it was. She couldn't understand why Daisy asked her about that. And especially couldn't believe
didn't know you wanted a kid. When did this happen?" Daisy looked at Belinda and asked out of curiosity. It had been too long since they saw each other last. Her friend was changing before her eyes.
"Do you really think I enjoy being a tough woman all the ti? I had no choice! I'm an only child! They made take over the family business. If I'm really pregnant, it will be a perfect excuse for to take so family leave and let Duke take over. He doesn't have enough to do anyway. He always seems to have so much ti to just hang out while everyone else is busy working. I've worked too hard. If Duke can help, then..." She trailed off, not sure of what else to say. She was really tired.
"Oh! So that's what you think of your job. I thought so! I was wondering why you seed so willing to be a mom after you got married. It wasn't a sacrifice. You had it all planned out," Daisy teased Belinda. But she got it. Daisy always felt stressed out when she went over Edward's business files. She had no talent for business. Her least favorite subject when she was a student was business managent. No wonder Belinda wanted to get away from work. Sotis, it just got to be too much.
