THE BAD BOY OF MANHATTAN
Chapter 26. The Bad Idea Elric And James Wrongly Speak.

EAST HARLEM, MANHATTAN.

"Dome!"

Emma who was enjoying her lunch in the employee room almost choked on being surprised by Alice's call that suddenly appeared. "Jeez, Alice .. You surprised me," he grumbled.

Alice chuckles. "Someone's looking for you."

"uh? Who?" ask her while putting one last mouthful into her mouth.

"name ... Elric," replied Alice. Emma frowned. Elric. What's the boy going to do?

Emma tidied up her empty plate, then stepped out of the employee room and looked for Elric who turned out to be sitting in a chair outside the restaurant. The boy is not alone. He was with a middle-aged woman with blonde hair and a wide hat.

"Hi, have you guys ordered anything?" emma asked as she approached the two.

Elric immediately stood up, and pulled the chair next to him to occupy Emma. While Barbara who was sitting across the table chuckled at the nervous Elric.

"You must be Emma (you must be Emma)" Barbara said with a friendly smile. "Please sit down" he said later.

Emma smiled as she squinted her forehead. "Yeah, I'm Emma ... emm .. have you ordered anything?" Emma repeated her question. He could not understand why the two men had told him to sit down. Didn't they come for lunch.

"Yes. We ordered something" Barbara replied.

"O-kay," said Emma hesitantly. He sat down on the chair next to Erlic with a face that still looked astonished.

"Emma .. introduce, this is my friend, Barbara," Elric said to Barbara's laughter. While Emma was just grimacing.

"Hallo, Barbara, nice to meet you" said Emma.

"It's nice to meet you too" Barbara said, stroking Emma's cheek, making the girl look awkward. "Ah yes, I'm a friend of Elric, but I'm also his grandmother" she said.

"Owh, I see (so)." Emma nodded. Emma thought, life's perfect Elric. He has the perfect family. But the boy likes to look for trouble.

"Elric told me a lot about you. He said he su ...."

"Woow .. wow, Barbara, take it easy (relax, relax)." Elric hastily cuts off Barbara's remarks before the woman embarrasses him in front of Emma.

"Oh yeah?" Emma smiled broadly. "What did this boy tell you? Must be something bad. He always makes trouble with me, Barbara."

Barbara squinted her eyes at Elric. "Is that how you express your feelings for Emma, El?"

"Baaarb," protested Elric as he rounded his eyes glaring at his grandmother. Ask her to stop saying things that make Emma suspicious.

Emma who didn't understand what they were talking about just grimaced while gritting her nape. Moments later, Elric and Barbara's orders arrived. Emma is ready to continue her work.

After Emma's death, Elric was unceasingly grumbling at Barbara. While the woman only responded with an oddity.

James sipped those soft ranum lips. Hannah, the woman in her power, greeted her with joy. The rush of longing after a few days was not touched by his sturdy hands as if melting that night with the passion that was burning like a fire that devoured the California forest.

However, at once everything he was stirring collapsed when a name escaped from James' lips, "Emma ...."

"What (what)?" Hannah held James' chest with wide eyes in shock. "Who's Emma (who's Emma)? You got a new toy?" his pedicab.

Hannah pushes James' body down beside her. The mood was instantly destroyed. He knew he shouldn't be angry. They have no commitment whatsoever. But, he could not deny that he had already fallen in love with the Hellbound Bassist.

"Hannah ... sorry" said James as he grabbed Hannah's shoulder but the woman brushed him off.

Hannah turned towards James who was resigned beside her. "You got a new woman?"

"Not so .. emm .. yeah .. pfffh." James exhaled a rough breath.

Hanna got out of bed and picked up her clothes that were strewn across the floor. With a grunt the woman put it back on.

"Hannah ... come on (come on)," pinta James.

"I know I shouldn't be angry. But, at least you can keep my feelings in check when we're together, James." Hannah took a deep breath. "James ...," she called him a whim. He looked at the handsome man without a thread in his body. "I have fallen in love with you (i've fallen in love with you)" he said.

James stroked his head in frustration. This is what she fears about her relationship with Hannah. The woman will fall in love with him. And he, he did not know how to answer.

Hannah is the perfect woman. She is beautiful and her character is not bad. But, for some reason from the beginning Hannah chased after him, she had no intention of responding. Until the woman said if she was willing if James only thought of her as a bedmate, without any commitment. Hannah said it was enough to be close to her. "Hannah .. You know, not .. I ...."

"I know!" hatch Hannah. "I am guilty."

"It's not so. oh, sh it (shit). Come ...." James opened both of his hands asking Hannah to come into his arms. "Come on, come to me (come on, come to me)," James said.

Hannah slowly climbed back into bed and slid into James' arms. He buried his head there. "Who's Emma?" ask Hannah. He was very curious about the woman named Emma.

"A girl I met by accident a few weeks ago."

"Is she pretty (is she pretty)?"

"A sweet young girl (sweet young girl)."

"You fell in love with her?" lick Hannah. Although his heart ached, but he could not stem his curiosity to extract a description from James' mouth.

"I don't know yet (i don't know yet)."

"Are you going to end our relationship?"

James breathed heavily. He doesn't know what to answer. What is clear lately is that Emma's shadow always haunts her. Although he was a little upset the girl messed up their dinner plans. Emma said the reason was because she was with Elric who was involved in the problem.

Why Elric? What's going on between them. Why does Emma care so much about her godson?
