"Why are you following me around, Jackie?" asked Xiu when she noticed how Jackie had been hovering around her.
"Why can't I do that?" retorted Jackie. "The others also follow you all the time. You never complain about them."
"They do that because want treats from me. What about you?" Xiu looked at him playfully.
"I also..." Jackie couldn't bring himself to continue. Although he was only 11 years old now, he still couldn't bring himself to act like others of his age. No matter how hard he tried to do so. He couldn't act cute like the others at home either.
Xiu laughed out at his reaction, "Even if you say you're looking for treats, no one will believe you."
"I'm so not cute, right?"
Xiu frowned at him, "And who said that?"
"No one has to say it," said Jackie who looked frustrated over something. "I just know it myself. I can't bring myself to act cute."
