After repeatedly telling (threatening) Eric and Charles not to invite strange people to the birthday party, the two looked at Clark, spread their hands, and expressed that they were helpless.
Because their family did not live in the town, and considering the convenience of other children, Mike arranged the birthday party in a restaurant in the town.
After school in the afternoon, Clark and Eric took their school friends to the restaurant. After everyone had a meal, drank and had fun, the birthday was over.
"well!"
On the way home, Charles sighed and glanced at everyone. When he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he sighed heavily again, looking empty and lonely.
Seeing such an expression on that young face, Mike couldn't help laughing and said, "What's going on with you?"
"Well, I'm one year older. Will there be more parties and stuff in the future?"
"What? Don't like it?"
"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that it suddenly doesn't make much sense anymore."
Charles leaned on the back seat of the car with his hands on his head, a look of deliberate disdain on his face.
Eric curled his lips and said, "He must have used his ability to look into those people's heads again."
"Hmph!" Charles tilted his head in displeasure and said, "I don't know how I know that some people don't like our birthday party, and even think that we are old-fashioned people who live outside the town."
Mike raised his eyebrows, parked the car under the street light on the side of the road, turned to look at Charles in the back seat, and said: "Charles, your ability is very special. When you focus on the bad thoughts in people's hearts, you will It’s human nature to feel disappointed, but you can’t ignore the good because of the bad, understand?”
Charles nodded thoughtfully.
"Also, even friends will quarrel over something at a certain moment and have the urge to strangle each other, but you can't ignore the friendship between you just because of what the other person thinks at that moment."
"If you are obsessed with what the other person is thinking at that moment, then there is nothing your friend can do."
Charles chuckled and said, "For example, Eric and I?"
"?" Eric looked at Charles and said, "What?"
"I often read about his thoughts of scolding me, and when he quarreled with me, he wanted to beat me to a pulp, but I understand that he is just angry and will get better after a while, so I usually don't talk to him. Calculate!"
Charles puffed out his chest and glanced at Eric lightly, looking magnanimous and not caring about the other person.
Eric reached out and grabbed Charles' neck, rocked it back and forth, and said angrily: "I want to strangle you to death right now!"
Clark looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile and said: "Stop making trouble!"
Eric snorted angrily.
Charles raised the corners of his mouth proudly and adjusted his collar.
Mike stretched out his hand and gave Charles a faint nod, then smiled and cursed: "Eric and you are more than just friends."
He groaned and said: "From today on, don't use your abilities casually. People's hearts are too complicated."
Charles curled his lips and said, "I can see through it!"
Mike raised his eyebrows and said, "Open your mouth and show me?"
"ah!"
Charles opened his mouth obediently, revealing a mouth that was missing one front tooth.
"You haven't even finished replacing your teeth, but you still want to read people's hearts?"
Mike stood up, rubbed Charles' hair, and said with a smile: "You must graduate from college first!"
"Hahahaha!" Eric laughed and rolled on the back seat.
Charles had a cold face, pulled Eric's mouth, and said disdainfully: "Ha, you are missing two pills!"
Eric: (ー`′ー)
This is very annoying.
"Stop making trouble and go home!"
Mike said with a smile, let the children play, and rushed home.
…
Wednesday, sunny.
It's already December, and even if the weather is sunny, when the cold winter wind blows on people, they still can't help but curse (XX).
Because he agreed to take the children to New York, Mike pulled the boys out of their warm beds early in the morning.
Clark obeyed and went to wash up, but Charles and Eric couldn't help but yawned and retreated into the warm quilt.
Mike raised his eyebrows, walked out of their room, and knocked on the bathroom door.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Clark poked his head out.
"I'll take care of them in a moment. I'll prepare breakfast, then pack my bags and get ready to go!"
"packing luggage?"
Clark was a little confused and said, "Aren't we only going for one day?"
"Ha!" Mike said with a smile: "I suddenly remembered that your Uncle Hank gave us a villa. We haven't seen it yet. Didn't you happen to be on winter vacation? We will be there for Christmas this year. Pass."
Clark's eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, leave them two to me!"
Mike nodded and went downstairs with peace of mind.
Clark took care of his personal hygiene at super speed and rushed into Eric and Charles' room.
Standing between the two single beds, looking at the two people with their heads under the quilt, Clark grinned and pulled off Charles' quilt.
"ah!"
Amidst the pleasant screams, Charles hugged his clothes and shivered. Clark smiled at him and grabbed Eric's quilt.
Pull hard.
"Um?"
Clark looked at the motionless quilt with a puzzled look on his face, and then took a closer look and was speechless.
I saw several pieces of shiny metal pressed around the quilt.
Clark said helplessly: "Is your ability what makes you stay in bed? Eric!"
"I'll just sleep for five minutes!"
Clark crossed his arms and said, "Okay, let's go."
"Don't try to lie to me, dad is still making breakfast, not so fast!"
"Can't you get up?"
"don't want!"
Clark chuckled and said, "Then I'm welcome."
As he spoke, he grabbed Eric's bed with one hand and began to turn it upside down, left and right, and then raised the bed up.
"Bata!"
Eric shook his head, slipped out of the bed, and threw himself on the ground.
"Ha ha!"
Charles laughed so hard that he rolled on his chest holding his belly.
Clark put the bed down with a gentle smile on his face and said, "You only have two minutes."
Charles and Eric sighed, but put on their clothes obediently.
In Clark's hands, they had no room for bargaining.
"Dad said that we will spend Christmas this year at the villa given by Uncle Hank, so you guys hurry up and pack your bags later."
"What?"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
The two stared at Clark.
"Ah..." Clark turned around, facing away from the two of them, showing a wicked smile, and said, "If I had told you earlier, I wouldn't have seen you screaming."
After saying that, Clark walked out happily amidst the screams of the two people.
