Duren's charm, my friend's Dad
Chapter 21

When we got home, Edward was home. Lila was quite surprised, as was me. However, the man once said that I should not influence his daughter with bad things. He must have thought badly of me. I don't think I need to explain anything.

"Fuck, we're home. Why not just tell me." Lila kissed the back of her papa hand. While I just smiled faintly at the man. It still feels awkward, why should I meet now. He must hate me even more.

"The boat just arrived. Where are you guys from?"

"Bah, I can clear. I was the one who invited Fanya to stop by the mall, so Fanya was not wrong Pah. Papah don't be angry yes, after this I promise to be diligent in studying Pah."

I was still standing behind Lila who was as afraid of her angry papa. From what I see the man is not like he's going to be angry. But quite the opposite. He looked at me and sighed, I don't know what he meant.

"You go into the room" said the man.

"Isn't he angry?" ask Lila.

The man shook his head. "Do you want to get angry?"

"No, no. Yes, we're going to the room now. Come on, Fanya."

Is it true that the man was not angry, yes maybe I was lucky this time.

Since it was too late in the afternoon, we ended up not studying today. Just chat for a minute.

"Lila, I think I should go home now."

"Yes, you're going home. But it's raining, His. Let it be delivered with mamang yes," said Lila.

Outside it is raining very hard.

"No, Lil. I'll borrow an umbrella if I have one."

"Here please, don't resist this time. What if you get sick because of the rain, then you can not find money. Aye right?"

"All right, thanks Lil. Sorry if I'm a hassle."

"Not at all. Let me take you down."

I also accepted my friend's good intentions. When it rains, buses rarely pass. I could end up on foot if I didn't accept Lila's offer.

When you go downstairs. Again the driver who used to deliver Lila was home. Maybe it wasn't my luck.

"His, wait here let me ask Papah to call the driver."

"Don't Lila." I prevented Lila's hand from calling her papa. "I borrowed an umbrella, not too much."

"It's okay, Him. You wait here huh. Let me ask Papah."

"Calc ...."

I was just about to call Lila but suddenly someone came.

"Let Papah deliver him."

I gasped for her, how the man could blatantly say he was going to take me home. What if Lila suspects me. Doesn't she know that her daughter would at least have a stepmother. Yes, Lila herself told me that she most disliked that there were women who were close to her papa.

"Good idea, Yes. Let my Papah be your anterin."

"Huh, but Lil. No need, I'll be fine despite the rain."

"No need to be stubborn, I will take you," said Edward full of emphasis.
