Deskmate, Hello

989 Words
Just as Dennis was wondering where his uncle’s new wife was, Aria suddenly appeared in the hall. “Hi, Dennis, I’m your aunt, Aria Cross.” Aria had just gone to the washroom. When she came out, she saw this familiar figure, so she went up to greet him. Dennis let out a blood-curdling scream, and without any exaggeration, he was so scared he fell to the ground. If Dominic was the person he feared the most, then Aria Bennett was only second to him. “Deskmate, hello. I heard that we are from the same university!” Seeing Dennis’s reaction, Aria began to tease him. However, this was also a fact that she had just learned. The entire room was shocked. Everyone looked at Aria and Dennis. Even dominic was a little surprised. Aria and his nephew were deskmates? Dennis was completely shocked. He had never thought that his uncle, who he was most afraid of, would get married in a flash and marry his deskmate, who he feared as well. He turned around and wanted to escape from this chaotic place. For now, he only thought of saving himself. Aria and dominic said in unison to Cross, who was planning to escape, “Come back!” After saying that, the newlyweds looked at each other. Dennis had happily returned home. He had not expected to receive bad news on his first day back. First, his uncle was home. Second, Aria Bennett was also at his home. Third, his uncle had married Atia Bennett. It was over. It was over. His hard days were about to begin. Everyone in the room was stunned. From Aria’s tone towards Dennis,it seemed like the two of them had argued before. Old Master Cross was the first to ask, “Aria, are you and Dennis deskmates?” Aria walked over to Dominic’s side and sat down. She nodded. “Yes, we were deskmates in high school.” “No, we were deskmates in primary school, junior high school, and high school,” Dennis added, restraining himself. He wanted to cry but no tears would come. Aria agreed and said with a smile, “Yes, we have always been deskmates.” Dennis was simply a little tyrant in school until he started to become deskmates with Aria. That was when his miserable journey had begun. He had said, “Aria Bennett, wipe the table for me, clean up for me, and do my homework for me. I’m telling you, if you don’t dare to do my homework for me, I’ll beat you up.” Aria Bennett had said to him, “You want to beat me up?” The young Aria had not given Dennis a chance to say anything. She punched Dennis in the face, then grabbed his hair and pushed him onto the desk. “You still want to order me around? How’s your pride doing?” ...... That happened in the second grade of elementary school. It was the first time Dennis Cross was beaten up by Aria Bennett. In Dennis’s spoiled childhood, Aria Bennett was simply a shadow that loomed over him. After that, he was in charge of wiping Aria’s desk, cleaning up, and doing her homework. ... In junior high, Dennis grew very quickly. He was the tallest among his classmates. Originally, he and Aria were not in the same class, but when he thought of the humiliation he had suffered in primary school, he had his family pull some strings so that he could purposely share a desk with Aria. He wanted to get back at her for the humiliation he had suffered in the past, but it was not surprising what happened next. Dennis fell right into his old job of wiping desks, cleaning up, and doing her homework again. In high school, Dennis thought that he was tall and strong, even taller than Aria by half a head. It was no problem for him to defeat her. In the end, he found out that Aria had started studying at the taekwondo dojo when she was young. She had long been a black belt all these years. Not only did she know taekwondo, but she also knew other forms of martial arts. At that time, Dennis took a week off to rest at home. After school started, he transferred to Aria’s class and continued his three-year term as her little brother. Finally, he was in university. Dennis had finally gotten through it. He was so happy that he had cried. His wonderful university life had made him forget all about the humiliation he had suffered as a so called little brother all these years. He had also forgotten about the great devil, Aria Bennett. However, fate had played a huge joke on him. The great devil, Aria Bennett had now become his aunt. How could Dennis accept this? Aria had never thought that the boy she had bullied since young would turn out to be the only child of the Cross family. He had even become her nephew. It seemed that their fate was predestined. “It seems that my fate and the Cross family’s fate are very intertwined!” Aria’s words got Dominic’s attention. The way he looked at his nephew changed. “Get over here and sit properly. Get to know your aunt.” Dennis was not willing to go over. “Uncle, you might as well marry that Mary John. Mary John is a scheming b*tch. She’s a tigress.” Aria clicked her tongue. “What did I do to you? Didn’t I treat you wellwhen we sat at the same table?” Did she not let him do chores for her, run errands, and do her homework? Thanks to Dennis, Aria rarely did her homework. She did not even do much cleaning at school. Even when she wanted to drink water, this little boy would fetch her water bottle for her.
