Charlotte sent a crying emoji and another text. ‘It was through a lot of effort. Another message came immediately. Just curious. Was it you that accepted my request?’
North replied, “Yup.” She asked, ‘Then, will your uncle block me when he returns?” Calmly, he commented, ‘Yup. This made her panic. ‘What should I do? Little handsome boy, please help me. I am super into your uncle.’
North frowned tightly at her words. Does she really like Uncle Brian? ‘Are you a legal adult?” Charlotte replied, ‘Of course. I became legal the day we met.’
This led him to ponder as his uncle was no longer young and wild. It would be nice if he got a girlfriend. Besides, he likes this lady too, right? So, he replied, ‘Sure, I can help you.” She requested, ‘Oh, could you help me put in at good word in front of your uncle?”
North could not help but smile as he admitted that he did not know how to do that. I can’t help you with that, but I can stop him from blocking you. As for the rest, you’ll have to manage on your own. This surprised Charlotte. ‘Really? I won’t be blocked?”
He stated proudly, ‘If you don’t believe me, then it’ll be your loss. I’m going to delete the messages now, otherwise, he’ll make me pay if he sees them. Don’t you betray me either.’ He then deleted all the traces of their conversation.
Following that, he connected the phone to his computer and set Charlotte’s profile to be one that could not be blocked.
With everything done and dusted, Brian returned just in time as he went to the kitchen and handed Ellen the bottle of vinegar.
When he walked out, he found North playing with his computer. “Why are you not throwing darts anymore? What’s your highest score?”
North stated proudly, “Ten.” His answer made Brian smile. “Really? Do it again.”
Brian agreed to his terms. “Okay.” Pulling out all the darts from the board, North. stood to his original position before scoring another bullseye. “Twice?” Still smiling, Brian was feeling magnanimous.. “Sure, make that twice. You have twenty points.”
Yet, he could not smile a moment after that as North scored consecutive bullseyes. With only one chance left, North would get full points if he got another bullseye. “Did you cheat or something?” he asked in disbelief.
What kind of child would get bullseyes in a row when they had just picked the sport up? North frowned. “Are you admitting defeat? If so, then I won’t throw this one.”
His question made Brian snort. ‘Admit defeat? I taught you how to throw darts, so why would I do that?”
While looking at him, North casually threw the dart. Alas, it was another bullseye! Brian was speechless. Next up, it was finally his turn, but he got consecutive bullseyes too.
