Me And The Mysterious Man's
Chapter 30 - Shopping


In the afternoon, at exactly 03:40, Becca walks towards Jack's house. The girl walked while bowing languidly. Look at the movement of his feet that step forward. Both of his hands were put in his pants pocket. Maybe he thought he wouldn't go to prom reunion.


Becca pressed the bell a few times. Not waiting long, Jack immediately opened the door for her.


Becca picked up the wallet she had in her pants pocket, and said, "I just want to get this back. I found it in the super market. Sorry I can return it now."


Jack looks ordinary. She instead focused on the sad expression that Becca showed.


"Oh. Its alright. Thank you." Thank you." Jack responds flatly while retrieving the wallet Becca gave him.


"Why don't you panic when you lose your wallet?" ask Becca for a little bit of curiosity.


"I'm freaking out, of course" Jack replied.


"You don't have a sim? I didn't find a sim card in your wallet? now it's proven that you're a bad driver" Becca commented. Then just leave.


"Beca!" call Jack, who will make Becca look over. "I changed my mind. I'll accompany you to the reunion prom!"


Hearing Jack's words, Becca's eyes suddenly widened. His mouth slowly curved into a smile.


"really? you certain? why suddenly?" Becca raises a pile of questions.


"That's not important. Yes, go home!" Jack smiled slanted, then closed the door slowly. Grunting in relief, he stepped into his room. Jack went into a room that he dedicated as a place to change clothes. There are luxury items in the collection. Including his wallet and identity. He put the wallet Becca found back in its place.


Meanwhile, Becca has arrived at her room. She smiled satisfied with the news Jack had given her. So excited, Becca rushed to get ready to tidy up. Then he left by driving his car.


The music accompanies Becca on her journey. He moved his body occasionally as his mood had already completely improved. The car slowly stopped as the red light flashed. Becca starts to move her body with a craze when the tempo of the song sounds on the chrous passionately. Naturally, the song Rumour Has It belongs to Adele is very in accordance with what is in nature now. No wonder Becca got carried away.


Becca instantly pecked as she shifted her eyesight to the side. Right towards the cadillac car that stopped next to him. His eyes were puffed up when he realized the owner was staring at him. Who else if not Jack. He's probably the only one who owns a light blue cadillac.


Becca also tried to show as calm an expression as possible. He gave a brief smile, then immediately stepped on the gas pedal when the green light had lit up.


"Geez, that's so embarrassing!" muttered Becca with a slightly flushed face embarrassed. "Ah it's okay, after all it's just Jack," he continued trying to think positively.


Becca has arrived at her destination. He arrives at a popular mall in downtown Louisiana. His intention now was to look for necessary items that would make him change. Or rather change the look for the better.


"I ask for an opinion, what hairstyle would make me better?" becca asked when she had positioned herself sitting in the salon chair.


"Give it to me. I'll do my best!" sahut salon owner who has the name Clara stamped on the lock.


"Okay." Becca smiled broadly. A sign of her letting Clara fiddle with her brunette hair.


The hair straightening machine slowly straightened thousands of crown strands on Becca's head. Clara did her job smartly. After finishing straightening Becca's hair, she gives the final touch by spraying a liquid that is useful as a vitamin.


Becca brought her face to the mirror. She plays with her hair that is completely clean. A smile was created from his face.


"Hows it? you like it, don't you?" clara asked as she crossed her arms around her chest.


"Yes, I'm so satisfied!" answer Becca.


"Beca?" the familiar voice of reflex made Becca turn her head. Obviously the owner of the voice was Ben.


"Ben?" Becca smiled wryly. Obviously he still can't forget what Ben said to him last night.


"I'm sorry about what I said last night." Ben looked at Becca expectantly.


"It's okay, Ben. After all, your words have a point." Becca.


"Of course not. I never thought of you as a pathetic girl. I think you're an amazing girl, and maybe more than that!" Ben keeps following Becca, who is busy looking at her clothes.


"Gift!" Becca chuckles at Ben's exaggerated remarks for her. "Don't overdo it!" he said as he raised a fist into Ben's stomach.


"I'm just trying to cheer you up." Ben smiled with satisfaction as he watched Becca improve.


"What are you doing here?" Becca scrunched her forehead.


"Regular. Go down to the field to get the news."


"Oh, how? is it going well?"


"As usual. It's boring!" Ben shrugged his shoulders lazily. "You? seems like you want to go somewhere?" the question demands an answer.


"I'm just getting ready to go to the prom reunion later."


"really? so you keep going on with your lies?" Ben widened his eyes.


"Yes, Jack agreed to accompany me. Do you believe that? it turns out the attitude is not as bad as I thought so far," said Becca while pulling one of her choice dresses.


"Really.." said Ben disappointed. His feelings instantly shrank. Something was stirring in his heart. It crossed his mind to express love in earnest. But it feels very difficult to say and explain. Moreover, Becca often considers her love expression is just a joke.


"You're going too, right?" Becca looked at Ben questioningly.


"Emm. I don't know." Ben answered while throwing his face away from Becca.


"Ben, hurry!" a man suddenly called Ben. Looks like the man is Ben's co-worker at the company.


"I have to go now!" ben Gelagapan said. Then meringus just left. Without a smile and sentences full of familiarity as usual. Ben is completely heartbroken by Becca's final choice.


...***...


Becca's done picking out her dress. She decided to buy a pink dress. He felt the color was suitable to be worn at the reunion event later.


Next Becca buys makeup equipment. Honestly, he's not good at these things. But Becca will try her best. At least in this day and age, the internet can be used as a source of knowledge that can help.


The night greeted. Becca just parked her car in the yard. His ears suddenly heard a strange sound from Jack's cadillac car. As a result, Becca looked at the car seriously. He could see the trunk of Jack's car moving around, as if someone was inside.


Becca slowly stepped on her feet. Curiosity and suspicion re-emerged in his mind.
