“How about having lunch together and driving you home?”
Hearing Adam's words, Jennifer immediately pouted.
“Did you not hear everything well? You secretly ignored me, right?”
“I heard everything.”
Adam had been driving around town B. On the street, Jennifer kept scolding her, but the young man heard her intently. Hearing all her complaints, it was as if trying to take responsibility for the mess that the woman had made in this one month.
“Tetap course ..” Jennifer took a deep breath. “You two really fit.”
“I and Bella?” ask Adam.
“Iya.” Jennifer nodded.
After scolding Adam to the satisfaction, the woman looked even more relieved. Yes ... although there was still a trace of sadness in his eyes.
“Bella, huh?” murmured Adam. “If Bella ... she is my little mistress.”
“Eh??”
Hearing Adam who said in a half-joking tone, Jennifer was shocked. Seeing the relaxed face on the handsome young man's face, he suddenly felt like getting angry.
“You mean ... You were just messing with her?”
“Not.” Adam immediately shook his head. “I mean-”
“I can't believe you're such a person, Adam! So all this time you just played around with the girls and then intended to leave them just like that? I'm sure the first kiss was a lie! You-”
“Can you shut up for a minute, Jennifer? Let me explain it first.”
“Hmph!” Jennifer snorted coldly.
“So like this ..”
Adam begins to tell Jennifer the story of Bella's life. He also told of their meeting. Of course, with a little editing. The young man only said that he accidentally helped Bella while being bullied. Not saying where or who is bothering.
“Good girl like that ..” Jennifer said before taking a deep breath.
“Yes. She's a very nice girl.”
“Then you should take good care of it,” Jennifer said.
“I'll take care of it.”
Hearing that, Jennifer looked outside, turning her face away from Adam.
“Should .. you make that girl your wife.”
“I've persuaded him, but he's still stubborn.”
Adam shook his head lightly, completely not noticing the sad expression on Jennifer's face. Perhaps because he was engrossed in talking about others, he forgot that the woman next to him also liked him.
“Bella insists on refusing. He said I had to find wife.” Adam smiled bitterly. “The wife who wants her husband has another mistress .. I don't think there's anything like it in the world.”
“...”
Adam looked towards Jennifer. Seeing the woman's face turn red, her expression changed. He looks confused and feels strange.
“Are you okay, Jennifer?”
“K-You must have said that on purpose, right! Basic con man!”
“Eh?” Adam was confused.
“I mean, where might Bella want to be a mistress like you said! You just made it an excuse to be able to seduce other women! Basic cheater!”
“...”
That sounds weird, but it's real .. okay?
Adam breathed in his heart. Feeling a bit helpless. As if recalling something, the young man suddenly asked.
“Maybe you want to be my wife, Jennifer? Wife who would accept if her husband had another mistress?” Adam then chuckled before continuing. “Sorry, I just made-”
Looking up and seeing Jennifer's red face like an apple, Adam was shocked.
“K-You're not serious, are you, Jenn?”
“I-It was your fault for teasing me! I-I'll bite you, B-jerk!”
“Hey! Stop that! We're still on the road! Jenn .. Jennifer!”
Adam hit the brakes. Seeing his car almost hit the roadblock, the young man heaved a sigh of relief.
Almost .... really almost …
Looking at Jennifer who turned her face away with a pouting and innocent expression, Adam smiled wryly. In the end, he drove back to the car. This time, however, the young man was silent.
After quite a long drive aimlessly, Adam finally asked.
“You had lunch together?”
“Hmph! Just take me home. I want to rest for today.”
Looking at Jennifer who was still pouting, Adam let out a long sigh.
With Jennifer's direction, Adam finally drove the girl to one of the apartment buildings. It was not too far away from the apartment building where he lived.
After the car stopped, Jennifer who was about to get out suddenly asked.
“If your words were true. So ... can I come play tomorrow afternoon to your place to meet Bella?”
Because Jennifer had her back, Adam could not see her face. But the young man still replied with a smile on his face.
“Of course. You can come anytime.”
Getting out of the car and closing the door, Jennifer turned around, looking at Adam with a smile on her face.
“See you tomorrow.”
Seeing Jennifer being more cheerful, Adam also replied.
“See you tomorrow.”

...
That night, in Adam's apartment.
After dinner together, Adam suddenly said.
“Tomorrow Jennifer will come here, Bell. It's okay, right?”
The movement of Bella's hand washing the dishes suddenly stopped. His expression changed slightly before returning to normal. Smiling softly as usual, the girl replied.
“Of course it's okay, Brother Adam. Then I'll book a hotel tomorrow.”
“Eh? Why should I book a hotel?” adam asked with a confused expression.
“My presence will definitely bother you, so I will book a hotel. After college I'll be there.”
Hearing Bella's words, Adam shook his head lightly.
“Why should I go? Jennifer came here to see you, Bell.”
“Eh??”
This time Bella was shocked. After thinking about something, his expression changed. The girl became a bit nervous.
Could it be that Officer Jennifer wanted to tell me to stop close to Brother Adam? If ... if I don't have a place here, I should-
“You must be thinking negative again.”
Adam who knew when he was behind and hugged his waist made Bella surprised.
“A-I ..”
“Trust me, although a bit rude, Jennifer is a good woman. He just wants to be friends with you. Don't think about it too much.”
“Friends?” mumbling Bella.
“Iya. Because tomorrow friends come to visit, we have to buy more and delicious groceries.”
Leaning against Adam's chest, Bella nodded.
“En. I'll try to cook the best for Officer Jennifer.”
Adam slightly lowered his head and gently kissed the girl's cheek.
“That's the new Bella I know.”

...
Late at night, on the roof of the apartment building.
Finished meditating, Adam sat while staring at the star-filled sky. He played the pendant in his right hand. The pendant he got from the mad woman before.
Adam raised his hand, looking at the beautiful pendant with a shiny gray stone as the core.
“If this thing could be exchanged for Spirit Bead,” murmured Adam.
[Refined Abyss Jade ]
Can be sold in system stores.
20 Spirit Beads (bronze)
…
Seeing that all of a sudden, the corner of Adam's lips twitched. He did not expect that the objects in the inventory could be sold with Spirit Bead in the system store.
The young man took a long breath. Feel very ugly.
This system ... must have been on purpose!!!
