Black Shadow: Gangster X Family
Justin and Ezra (2)

For Ezra cooking is not a problem, although he is not too able to cook but he has learned a little from Felix. So he thought his cooking wouldn't be so bad, all he did for Justin's sake. Justin is everything.

Ezra is willing to learn to cook so that later when bringing supplies to the office, Justin will only eat his cooking. Even though Aiden has made provisions for all of them. But Ezra has a principle only he can make provisions for Justin. He would not let the other members eat his food other than for Justin.

So Ezra happily began to prepare the groceries he needed, Previously he had asked Aiden for permission to use the kitchen.

Justin's favorite food is miso soup, a Japanese food that is very popular in the world. For him making miso soup is not difficult, like making ramen only.

He will make as good as possible and does not want to disappoint Justin with his taste.

After a few minutes of struggling in the kitchen, Ezra finished cooking her soup. He carefully poured the still hot soup into the bowl and then he made 2 hot coffees for him and Justin.

With her activity, Ezra brought the tray of food back to Justin's room.

***********

Cklek!

Nah!

Ezra put the tray to the table and closed the door, while Justin who saw Ezra carrying food immediately closed his documents and moved to sit on the sofa.

Ezra thrust a bowl of soup and coffee at Justin, He sat down and took his share of coffee.

"You didn't eat?" Justin stared at Ezra's astonishment, Because there was only one bowl of soup there.

"No, I'm still full. You're the only one who eats" said Ezra, sipping his coffee.

Justin just nodded, Without saying anything else he enjoyed the food Ezra made. While Ezra himself chose to work on the rest of the document, occasionally his green netra glanced at Justin.

"What is this soup you made yourself?"

"Yes, how does it feel?" Ezra looked curiously.

"Well, that's good,"

Ezra smiled faintly, Her heart flowered with praise from Justin. He's been trying hard to make the most delicious cuisine, especially this is Justin's favorite food. It is unexpected that his efforts were not in vain. Next time he'll learn even more so that like Aiden who is an expert in cooking, Minimal like Felix.

But of course all his cooking will only be given to a Justin.

"So...Can I start tomorrow I'll make provisions for both of us in the office?" As much as Ezra could hide his happy expression, he did not want his image to be destroyed in front of Justin if he was excessive.

"It can be considered, but isn't there already Aiden who will make provisions for both of us?" Justin raised his eyebrows in astonishment, Not understanding why Ezra bothered to submit himself to make provisions just for the two of them.

"Aiden has made too much food, he makes breakfast at the same time provisions must make him tired and difficult. Moreover, he is also in charge of cleaning the dormitory instead, He also needs to save his energy even if a little,"

To be honest it was just an alibi, Ezra knew that vampires wouldn't get tired easily and drained of energy if they were just making food. Moreover, Aiden is the strongest stamina among the members. But who knows with an alibi like that, Justin wants to be made by him.

"It makes sense, too," Justin rubbed his chin considering Ezra's wishes, glancing at his right hand for a moment. "But are you sure you don't mind making provisions for both of us every day?"

"Very sure, just trust me. I'll make you some good food like this again, even if you want other food I'll make you whatever you want" Ezra looked back with confidence, This is not an opportunity that should not be missed in a lifetime. If he gives what Justin likes, his image will definitely get a plus in Justin's eyes.

Just imagining it made his heart beat so excited, Unknowingly Ezra smiled widely.

Justin who had never seen Ezra smile that wide was shocked not to play, he was anxious as well as astonished. Is your friend sick or something? How could in the blink of an eye he feel like facing Ezra yet with a different figure.

"Ezra are you okay?" Justin's tone sounded a bit anxious, All the ages as long as he knew Ezra. Just this time he found Ezra smiling to himself.

Realizing from the daydream, Ezra reflexively turned to look at Justin for a second then he turned his eyes away with a thin hue adorning his cheek.

Justin Speecheles saw Ezra's rather strange attitude today, but he said nothing more. He decided to continue his food which was delayed.

"Today Ezra seemed strange, It's not usually that he smiled broadly like that," thought Justin who was very aware of Ezra's usual nature.

But today he really did not expect it to be different like that. Netra orange glanced at Ezra for a moment, Noticing the activity of the man with the emerland green.

"You forgot about Ezra that I told you about in the past? He likes it just as you know! So it's only natural that in the present he's being very considerate of you, because his attitude is back again like in the past,"

Victor's voice rang out in his mind, and Victor had locked Justin's mind so that Ezra could not know Justin's thoughts including their conversation.

At the same time Justin was choking. "Ohuk!"

Not because of the appearance of Victor's voice but the fact that Ezra liked it in the past and must have been in the present. He forgot about Ezra in the past.

Hurriedly he grabbed a glass filled with coffee and vertical it up to half, Ezra who heard a choking sound then stared in shock at his superior.

"Justin, are you okay?"

Justin just nodded silently hearing a stiff gesture, He rubbed his lips with the available tissue after putting back his glass.

"It's okay, just continue your work,"

Although still somewhat worried, Ezra obeyed Justin's orders and refocused himself on his work. While Justin sipped his coffee while communicating with Victor in his mind. Even though he looks like he is daydreaming.

"It's true that I forgot about it, thankfully you remind me Victor" Justin replied in his heart, Otherwise the events of the past might be repeated in the present.

"Didn't you intend to tell her from the beginning? It's a pity that he'll be heartbroken after expressing his feelings for you, and you're rejecting him,"

"He's going to look like a little dog that's been heartbroken because his girlfriend left him, he must be very disappointed if you don't tell him from the beginning" added Victor.

Justin listened while pondering rubbing his chin. "Didn't Chloe manage to change her attitude in the past? How about we just wait until Chloe makes it, and then I'll tell Ezra the truth,"

"Do you think it's easy to conquer Ezra?! Moreover, a child like Chloe who has to try again from scratch. Changing Ezra's feelings to dislike you again requires a lot of struggle, in the past Chloe had to accept various threats and abusive actions from Ezra before she managed to make Ezra melt down. What about now who has to fight from zero again?!"

Justin subconsciously looked at Ezra who was still focused on his documents.

"I knew it was going to be hard, making her change her feelings for me. But if we ask Chloe to do it, it'll definitely be more mu–"

"We do not know in the future what Justin will be like, Dimasa which is now different from in the past. In the present day not knowing whether Chloe still likes Ezra or not, thank goodness Chloe still likes her and struggles to change her feelings for you. But if, for example, Chloe likes someone else and not Ezra, then you can't change how Ezra feels about you" Cut Victor fast.

"I suggest you just destroy Ezra's feelings from the beginning, I don't want him to feel more devastated after expressing his feelings for you,"

"But I...,"

"In the past through her memories, Ezra almost committed suicide after you refused. Lucky she was saved by Chloe,"

"You know that incident because you saw Ezra's memory?"

"Right, that's why you better choose now. Destroying his feelings at the beginning or end with the consequences he will commit suicide like events in the past. The choice is yours Justin,"

Justin was still stunned after Victor's voice was no longer heard in his mind, so excited to daydream he did not realize that Ezra was done with his task and then clean up the remaining bowl and glass that was empty.

"Justin, the job is done. I'll go first, rest well,"

Justin did not answer he just looked at Ezra, while the man surnamed Miracle was leaving Justin's room carrying a tray containing an empty bowl and glass.
