Nix's POV

"Nix?" Creed called while holding a huge Durian.

Wait, what? Where did he get that from?

Just by smelling it, you can really tell that it is one.

Durian is said to be one of the most divisive foods in the world. It can be loved by some and hated by others. Well, half of the reason why they chose to hate Durian was because of its strong odor.

I remember how my Dad used to get one of these from our backyard and Mom would hate it.

"Where did you get that?" I asked as I walk towards him.

He placed it on the top of the table before washing his hands. "Got it from the backyard. I was just looking at it but Uncle Ino told me to grab one, so I did." Says Creed.

"I'm glad you're finally comfortable with him," I replied and tapped his shoulder for encouragement.

"You can say that," Creed smiled. He washed the Durian first before cutting it to pieces.

While doing so, I had the chance to stare at him for a moment.

Suddenly, I was reminded of that day.

"Aerin!"
