Mysterious Mr.Richard

The weather in  August was unpredictable. Dark clouds finally covered the scorching sun. It was bitter hot.

Bonny insisted on having Richard in the same car with her. 

"Daddy, Mommy's car is very nice." Bonny held Richard's hand, acting like a spoilt child outside the restaurant. No one could resist her when she behaved like that.

Richard had no choice but to let Ted drive his car home.

Pearl smiled hesitantly and asked, "Um, are you sure you're going to take my car?"

Richard misunderstood Pearl's meaning. He thought she was unwilling to let him take her car. His face darkened as he asked, "Why? How expensive is your car? Do you think I can't afford a ride in it?"

"That's not what I mean." Pearl didn't know how to explain it. "Forget it. Don't blame me later on. I've reminded you already."

Pearl's car was parked inside the University. Pearl and Richard each held one child as they went looking for the car on campus. After they finally found it, Richard understood why Pearl was awkward just now. 

The Mini Cooper was a bit hard for Richard whose height was 185 cm to get inside.

"Why not drive your own car?" Pearl awkwardly asked. 

The two children had already climbed into the back seat. Bonny was waving at Richard and said, "Daddy, quickly get in. It's hot standing there."

Richard glanced at Pearl and got into the car.

Seeing this, Pearl hopped in the driver's seat and turned on the ignition.

The tiny white car then drove out of the university. The corners of Pearl's eyes peered at Richard as she said, "Feel free to adjust the seat if it's narrow for you."

"No need." Richard frowned. After remaining silent for a few seconds, he asked, "Why did you buy this car?"

"It's a second-hand from my friend, so it's cheaper."
