Chapter: 1219
"Are kids these days all so mature?" he wondered.
"Well, if you like her, then why won’t you have a baby with her?" Haley asked.
"We’re not married yet. We’ll have a baby after we get married," Dustin forced an answer.
"And when will you get married?" Haley seemed relentless.
Dustin was stumped.
"Can we please change the conversation, kiddo? I’m begging you!" Dustin silently pleaded in his head.
"Alright, Haley. Don’t make things difficult for Uncle Dustin. Look, his forehead is already dripping with sweat." Natasha couldn’t help but laugh, trying to save Dustin from embarrassment.
Only he would get bullied by a child so badly.
"Uncle Dustin, you’re sweating? Let me wipe your forehead." Haley took out a couple of tissues and began to dab at Dustin’s forehead.
"Haley, it’s getting dark. You should head back with Mom," Nelson interjected.
"But I still want to talk to Uncle Dustin." Haley seemed reluctant to go.
"It’s your birthday tomorrow, right? We can talk more tomorrow," Dustin hurriedly added.
"Really?" Haley’s face lit up with joy.
"Of course." Dustin nodded seriously.
"Pinky promise," Haley said while sticking out her pinky finger.
"I promise." Dustin smiled and hooked his pinky with hers.
"Uncle Dustin, I want to tell you a secret." After linking pinkies, Haley leaned close to Dustin’s ear.
She whispered, "Dad keeps coughing a lot these days. He must be sick. Could you take good care of him for me?"
"Of course." Dustin nodded with a smile.
"Here, this is a transformer I just bought. I want to give it to you." Haley took out a toy and thrust it to Dustin.
"If you’re in trouble, you can use it to transform into Mister Strong. Take care of my father and maintain world peace."
Dustin broke into laughter.
"Okay. I’ll transform into Mister Strong and take care of your father." This little girl was such a funny kid.
"Then it’s a deal. Bye!" Haley waved. Then, she followed her mother and left happily.
"Nelson, I really can’t imagine how your daughter is so cute when you’re so tough and brawny." Dustin was envious.
