" You guys go first. I have another pressing matter to tend to." Darren said suddenly.
" What's with you all of a sudden?" Samuel asked. He was already surprised Mayra and Darren knew each other, but why was he running away like this?
" That's a good idea; it will be good for him to bond with Elise," Mayra suggested.
" I knew it! I finally understand why she kept pestering me for years!" Darren became enthusiastic all of a sudden.
" What?"
" Don't try to deny it! She has your nose! How can you leave your daughter alone like this? I understand it might be a mistake fathering a child when you are a teenager, but-" Darren's monologue was cut short with Samuel's powerful chop on the head.
Samuel made sure Elise was not hurt while he was punishing Darren. But his worries were pointless. Elise giggled to show her support.
" What the hell are you thinking? She is obviously not my child!" Samuel exclaimed.
