"Alfonso, you look pale. Is there something wrong?" Mary asked. Alfonso would usually run to where his nephew or niece is when he hears that they are near. But for some reason, Alfonso looked unusually not excited that his nephew is here.
'Did something happened between them?' She inwardly asked herself.
"I'm worried about Kyle." He honestly said to her. At every passing second that he is here and Kyle is where Arion is at, Alfonso is worried about Kyle's life.
Kyle is here to have a talk with Arion. And currently, Arion is not in the best mood ever since the talk they had about James and Harrison taking in the poison willingly. 'So troublesome! Why did he have to come today out of all the days in the calendar?!'
"Seriously, Alfonso. Your nephew is just way too entertaining! I can't believe that he is actually serious about it confronting Arion!" Mike laughed out loud. He too knows the reason why Kyle came to the Coleman mansion. And he has to be honest in this matter, he didn't exactly expect much when Kyle decided to tell Arion about the relationship between Anna and him.
He originally thought that Kyle would be chickened out since Arion is scary, after all.
"It is not funny, Mike!" Alfonso shouted. "My nephew's life is on the line here!" Although he likes to joke around about what Arion will do to Kyle, it does not mean that he truly wants that to happen.
'Oh, dear God! Kyle is still young and is still growing, please help him survive this day!'
"You're making it sound like you are sure that Arion will kill Kyle." Zack finds it gunny that Alfonso actually thinks that Arion will kill Kyle. Sure, Arion likes to say that he will kill Kyle and all, but Arion is only saying that out of his temper. He will not actually do it.
"It might actually happen, you know?" Mike showed a big smirk to Alfonso. If anything did happen to Kyle, Mike will only feel sorry for the young man. Who told Kyle to approach Anna in the first place? Literally, no one told him.
Kyle is the one who made such a decision, and Kyle has no one else to blame but himself for getting himself in this kind of trouble.
"What's the supposed to mean?" Mary curiously asked. It's true that Kyle is slowly getting on her husband's nerves, but it's not on the point where her husband actually has the thought of actually killing Kyle.
"Just tell them, Alfonso. They are all curious about it." Mike would like to say it instead, ut he has no right to do that. He is only a mere outside of a Robertson affair, the only thing he can watch Kyle work hard to obtain Arion's blessings.
Alfonso contemplated on what Mike just said, but in the end, he decided to keep his mouth shut. "I have no right to spill the bean. Kyle decided that Arion is the first one to know, and after getting what he wants from Arion, he then will tell everyone about it." Ironically, on what he just said, he already has spilled the bean to the Robertson family. And clearly, he has already forgotten about it.
"Well, aren't you just annoying," Leonardo said in an annoyed tone. Truthfully, he was interested in what Kye is going to tell Arion, but the only two people who know about it decided to not open their mouths. 'Are they trying to kill my fun?'

Meanwhile, on Kyle's side, the air between him and Arion is growing more intense by the minute. Neither one of them is even saying a word to each other.
"Kyle Robertson, did you just come here to waste my time?" It has been five minutes since Kyle entered the room, and Kyle has not yet said a word. If this continues any longer than what is needed, then Arion will do something about it.
Just looking at Kyle's face, Arion can somehow tell that Kyle is nervous about something, which is making him confused. 'Why is he making that expression? Where is that confident boy that I saw the last time?' He inwardly asked.
Kyle knew that he should say a word right about now, but it seems like his confidence is running away from him. 'Where did all my confidence go?' On such an important day, his confidence decided to not show itself.
"Kid, if you're not gonna say a word, then please, leave. I would rather spend my time with my friends than you, who is clearly wasting both of our precious time."
Just Arion is about to open the door for Kyle to leave, he halted on doing that when he heard what the young man just said. "I'm dating your daughter. She and I are officially dating."
While Arion is processing the information that he just got, Kyle, on the other hand, is currently cursing at himself. He said those words in a hurry and the way he said it made it sound like he has no confidence.
'That was so bad! Why did you have to say it like that?!'
Arion took a deep breath before saying a word. He needs to calm himself down first because if he doesn't, he might choke Kyle to death. "Can you repeat that for me again. I think I might have misheard you."
Arion is obviously hinting Kyle. He wants Kyle to say that it was only a joke. He genuinely wants Kyle to say that. But the other part of him is telling him that he should wake up. He knew that this is going to happen someday and that he should be ready for it.
However, no matter how many times he says that to himself. It would always shock him.
With confidence this time, Kyle gave his reply to Arion. "No. You heard it loud and clear. And I am not just here to tell you that."
"What else is there for you to say?" Arion doesn't like it when Kyle is acting like this. From his point fo view, it seems like Kyle is getting bolder and bolder at each word that he is saying. If only Kyle used that boldness of his to some other reason, Arion might have like Kyle even for just a little bit. But it's not the case, his daughter is involved in a most shocking way.
"Apart from my family who knew about my relationship with Anna, you are the first one to know. And before I share this relationship, I would like to have your blessing to continue seeing Anna without worrying about your getting in the way." Kyle is already at the point where there is no turning back now. His only way right now is to say everything that he wants to say to Arion today.
"My blessing? You're asking for my blessing when you're already in a relationship with my daughter? Shouldn't you have done that in the first place?" It's nice that there are still some people in the world who would still ask the parents' blessings, it's admirable. But Arion just can't appreciate this. It is all so sudden.
"I did have that in mind, but I changed my mind. I was getting impatient." Arion is surprised by Kyle's honesty. He did not expect that answer at all. He thought that Kyle would answer in a more logical way, but what he got is full honesty.
This side of Kyle is reminding him of how he was back when he was at Kyle's age. He was so honest to the point that Harrison almost killed him for it. Now he understands why Mary always tells him not to be too honest in front of Harrison.
'Why do I feel like it's my turn now to have a headache about this matter? Old man Harrison, I'm so sorry about everything that I did to you in the past.' Arion inwardly said.
"Wow. You're annoying." Arion spoke with a straight expression plastered on his face. "You're honest. In some way, I like that. However, I am not going to give you my blessing."
Expecting that kind of answer from Arion, Kyle smiled. "It's alright. I already expected that I won't be getting your blessing right away. Besides, I intend to work hard to get it."
Now that Kyle has achieved his goal for today, it is time for him to leave. Staying at this place much longer could only mean is that his time of death probability is increasing. Even if Arion is not saying it, he can tell that Arion is holding himself back greatly.
While Arion is giving him this much mercy, Kyle will gladly leave.
"Well then, I will see you when I see you, Mr. Coleman," Kyle said, then he left the room.
After Kyle left, Arion reached out at the vase near him, then he threw it across the room just to release some of his anger. "Interesting. You're so interesting, Kyle. Let's what kind of fun will I have with you."
