Me And The Mysterious Man's
Chapter 49 - The Four Eyes Talk

Jack was among the other mourners. His eyesight continued to wander everywhere. Trying to keep looking for the figure of the girl who lately haunts his mind. There were some people who asked him to talk. Wrestling in the story about the unfortunate life of a girl named Tara Pauline.

The mourning period continues and escalates. Especially when Tara's body was put into the ground. A bright atmosphere accompanied the funeral procession at that time. So that the situation is not so covered in a dark condition.

Becca stands next to Ben. He was again unable to withstand the roar of tears. Especially when he witnessed the state of Tara difficult to be covered by mounds of land.

Now the story from Tara's side has ended. Although memories of him are always attached to the heart of those closest to him. The funeral went well. Even Ellie can get through everything well. The figure of the middle-aged woman seemed to be trying to let go of her daughter. Even so, he wouldn't let the perpetrator who killed Tara off just like that. Ellie intends to take the suspects to the legal path, so they can receive the appropriate punishment.

...༻❀༺...

A week passed after Tara's death. During that time Becca hid herself in the room. But he seemed to be content to vent all his sadness. The girl was wearing neat clothes.

Becca wants to find a job. He was tired of being at home. Especially after losing her best friend. It was possible that with the new atmosphere he would more easily forget his sadness.

"David, where did you hide my car keys?" tukas Becca, who just got off the stairs. He walked at a fast pace to get to his father. David is seen waiting for his coffee in the kitchen.

"Where are you going?" instead of answering, David turned around. She noticed Becca's clothes looking neater than usual.

"As you wish. I'll find a job!" sahut Becca while wrapping a circular bag on his right shoulder.

David shook his head slowly. He swallowed his saliva first and said, "Becca, the state of Louisiana is not safe. Now is not the time to find a job."

"What?!" Becca flabbergasted. He had a feeling that he was going to have a debate with David again.

"Listen, I know this is hard. Still I don't want anything bad to happen to you. Especially after Aaron and Tara's party incident. Jonas' school was even heavily guarded by police. This city is in chaos now!" David explained at length. Trying to keep Becca at home for a while.

"All right." Becca rolled her puffed-up eyeballs. He had to obey. "But, give me my car keys first!" Becca opened her arms wide. His gaze also seemed to emit a menacing lightning.

"I'm sorry-"

"What the hell David!" becca's eyes were wide. His teeth were bluffing in annoyance. Without a second thought, he hurried to the exit. The girl again pinned the bag that had slipped off her shoulder. He doesn't care about David's rules. What he did was always wrong in his father's eyes.

"Becca! oi! what are you doing!" David tried to prevent. An annoyed snort came out of his mouth. He finally ran after Becca.

Prangs!

As a result of the jostling David accidentally broke something. What was none other than his own cup of brewed coffee. As a result, David took a moment to remove large glass fragments. He did so out of fear that Jonas would be hurt by his carelessness.

For David Becca's wish was like a trap. It is true Becca agreed to be at home on the condition that the car keys are given, but that does not mean the girl will not use her car. Becca must have had a reason behind her persistence in regaining her wish.

Becca runs as fast as she can and hides directly behind Jack's car. It coincides with David's departure from the house. The middle-aged man circulated his gaze in various directions. Including the direction of Jack's residence.

As Jack's house seems desolate, David eventually chooses the opposite path from Becca's whereabouts. He thinks his daughter went out of the neighborhood of Eden Street.

Jack had just woken up from his sleep. The sound of a bell constantly ringing required him to step in to open the door. Before that, he looked at the CCTV screen, just in case. Moreover, the rise of crime in the city of Louisiana is increasing dramatically.

Jack's pupils instantly enlarged as he watched Becca's sighting standing at the door. Jack tried to confirm his vision by rubbing his own eyes.

"Beca?" muttered Jack. His hands immediately combed the hair with fingers. Then smell the clothes he was wearing. So Jack concluded that the black shirt he now wears smells a little bad. The man finally ran back to the room to change his clothes, then rubbed a little cologne into his body.

'Wait 'wait? why am I so overreacting?' jack tried to remind himself. He grew more and more aware of the pounding sound at the door. Becca can't wait any longer.

Chequek!

Jack opened the door, his forehead wrinkled, as Becca did not say a word, but instead walked into his house. The girl also immediately closed the door again.

"You why? chased criminals?" jack asked, still amazed.

"Yes, a villain so filled with obsession!" sahut Becca, just carelessly getting inside. He threw his body into Jack's soft sofa.

"really?" Jack takes Becca's words seriously. Until his face showed concern. He looked as if he was demanding an answer.

Becca simply fell silent, then returned Jack's gaze. After a few seconds, he finally came to his senses with the serious expression Jack had shown.

"David.." Becca said. With just one word Jack understood. The man leaned his body onto the sofa. Then a sigh of relief.

"Ayola Becca, how long will your relationship with David improve?" jack said, raising both hands in wonder.

"Eitherway. But now I just want to get out of the house" Becca replied as she held her chin with one hand.

"Go from home to your neighbor's house you mean?" timpal Jack ringing.

"Yes! because my neighbor owes me a lot of explanation!" becca's words suddenly make Jack mute. Moreover, the girl looked at him fixedly. Makes Jack no longer able to stop the beating in his heart. Jack tried to ignore it by being calm. He's an expert at doing it.

"You want me to explain what?!" Jack asked as he widened both of his eyelids.

"First, I need you to explain what happened at Aaron's party!" Becca shifts herself closer to Jack. He put his ears wide to listen to Jack's explanation.

"Didn't I explain that?" Jack refused to tell. He even sighed and threw away the face of Becca.

"You just told me briefly. How do I understand?" becca's forehead frowned. He observed the tinge on Jack's face. Looks annoyed and bored.

"Okay, if you don't want to explain about it. What if we just explained what we did after the party?" Becca's back on the trail. His words caused Jack to stretch his eyes. The man was surprised by the girl sitting in front of him. Jack is well aware that Becca intends to talk about the one-night relationship that has occurred between the two.
