"Ma…" Dominique started but stopped when Joline marched towards him and pulled him by the ears to a corner away from prying eyes, a few feet close to where Diablo was leaning on a pillar with both his hands in his pockets and an unlit cigarette between his lips as he observed the scene.
Anyone who looked at Diablo at this moment would see nothing but a blank face, but he was thoroughly amused and entertained by what he was witnessing.
"Ma, ma, ma," Dominique called in pain as his mother finally let go of his ears.
Dominique shot a cold glare at the shadow as he heard a dark, low chuckle from Diablo.
"Why would you do that to Kalina?" his mother asked, disappointed.
"Ma, I…"
"Why get married to her if you are not going to treat her right?" his mother asked again as Mia walked to where they were, with Kalina by her side, who was avoiding Dominique's gaze.
