WARLORD VS AMBITIOUS GIRL
042. LAST TIME

Seeing Ares' presence made Tania confused. He did not understand why Ares who was supposed to be attending his friend's birthday party even came to see him.

Plus the question of the young man who looks upset because his phone is not active. Why did he contact her? That was what Tania had thought of Ares at the moment.

"Why silence?" Ares's question bursts inside and picks up Tania's phone on the table.

The young man saw that the phone was already on, but the message he sent had not been read by Tania. Knowing that, his sense of regret grew.

"Why don't you read my messages? Are you avoiding me?" Upset Ares while showing the message sent by her on Tania's phone.

Tania was still looking at Ares with an expressionless gaze, although basically the girl felt incomprehensible with Ares' current attitude.

"Why are you quiet? Say something!! Answer my question!!" Ares grow angry because Tania just kept quiet.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like this?" Tania asked who finally let out her voice. "What if I turn off my phone and don't read your messages?"

Tania's question instantly made Ares come to a realization. The young man wondered why he behaved like that. Somehow she became annoyed when Tania could not be contacted. To be honest, he doesn't know the reason.

"Why did you come to see me, and you were supposed to go to your friend's birthday, right?" Tania asked again with a flat gaze as usual.

Ares racked his brain in search of the right answer. Of course the answer is logical because he also does not know the real answer of all questions Tania.

"Parts... Yeah, I'm thinking 'cause I haven't finished my original assignment." Ares found the answer when he saw two masterpieces in the form of houses made of cardboard and ice cream sticks. "I didn't go to the show because I thought about the task. And I'm calling you to ask you to do it or we can make it together."

"Is it really like that? I don't think it's possible that you didn't leave just because of that assignment. Dyara must have been very disappointed that she was already very happy to accompany you to the show." Said Tania who did not immediately believe Ares' answer.

"Se—actually... That girl canceled it." Ares stuttered and looked doubtful.

"Why did he cancel it?"

"Suddenly he was sick, therefore he canceled it unilaterally. You know, I'm really pissed. Can't I go to the show alone? I'll just be the subject of ridicule my friends." Ares gave a convincing expression.

Tania looked at Ares in full search. The girl did not say anything more because she felt something stuck to Ares.

"Therefore I did not go and so re-thought of the task. But it turns out you made it, but I want us to work on it together." Ares turned his head back towards the table where the masterpiece was located. "Why are there two masterpieces?"

Tania who was originally looking at Ares turned her gaze away from the young man.

"You made two masterpieces?" Ares looked astonished at Tania who became directing her gaze to the side.

"The only thing I made was for you." Tania replied without looking at Ares. "I think you're leaving tonight and if you noticed yesterday you're making masterpieces not your craft, that's why I'm making them for you."

Ares subconsciously smiles at Tania's reply, but the young man tries to hold her back.

"Why are you smiling?" Tania looked back at Ares who instantly removed her smile from her face. "Then where are the ingredients if you intend to make that task with me?"

"For what, you've made it for me." Ares held back his smile. "It's great, you're good at a lot of things." Ares noticed the masterpiece Tania had made.

"And you can't do anything." Sahut Tania and instantly get a cynical look from Ares. "Now you can go home with one of those."

"What?" Ares was shocked because he still had no intention of going home.

"You don't have any more business, do you? Because that's home. I want dinner." Tania said walking closer to the doorway for Ares to get out of his residence immediately.

"Eat dinner? I want dinner too. Let's have dinner together." Ares hopes Tania agrees. "What's your dinner menu?"

"You'd better go home, you can have dinner at your house." Tania replied earlier for a moment thinking.

Ares hissed and looked at the kitchen table on which was a stovetop, and beside it was instant noodles and eggs.

"Don't tell me you want to make instant noodles?" Ask Ares. "Is that true?"

Tania nodded.

"Why should I make it for you?" Tania looked at the astonishment.

"Okay, then let me do it. Think of it as a thank you for making me that masterpiece." Ares replied as he walked towards the kitchen table.

Tania just kept quiet while watching Ares who looked clumsy because he was confused what to do.

"What should I do first?" Ares looked at Tania.

"Boil water to boil." Tania replied with no surprise, because she had guessed that the young man could not cook instant noodles. "Take the water according to how many packs you'll cook."

"Okay, okay... It's so easy." Ares answered directly acting following the instructions of Tania.

The young man scratched the water and put it in the pot and put it on the stove. But then he looked confused again. Ares looked at Tania.

"How do I turn on the stove?" Ask Ares.

Understandably the young man never cooked at all, not even once had never set foot into the kitchen.

With a grunt, Tania walked up to Ares and immediately turned on the stove.

"Sit down, let me make it." Tania Seru. "It's true, you can't do anything."

"What did you say? You don't know that my father was very good at cooking, so he set up a fancy restaurant and cafe in this country. If I were serious, I would be able to cook. My father's skill must have declined to me, just like my beautiful writing, which declined from him." Ares' rant made Tania snort with a small laugh.

"You're bragging too much."

Hearing Tania's words, Ares did not feel angry at all. The young man even raised his smile while looking at Tania who was on her back.

"Let's wait outside, I'll finish it and we can eat together."

Ares obeyed Tania's orders, the young man immediately walked out and sat down at the large table that was meant to sit with a happy feeling.

After ten minutes, Tania came out while carrying two bowls of instant noodles that were still puffing smoke. They both enjoyed their dinner together.

"It's very tasty. I'll make you a chef at my restaurant when I run my father's company." Ares exclaimed as he finished finishing his instant noodles in less than three minutes. "You can apply when you graduate school to my dad's company."

Tania did not comment on the ramblings of the young man who always said that. There was something he wanted to say to Ares at this moment.

"Where is the Teacher? Are Master and Headmaster gone? The house is very dark." Ares asked looking towards Kayden's house.

"Rice..." Call Tania who is sitting next to Ares facing the young man.

Ares turned to the girl who was looking at him in wonder. Not usually Tania called out to nanya, even this could be said for the first time the girl called out her name. Ares never called Tania by her name.

From Tania's gaze, Ares felt that something the girl wanted to say. It was such a serious thing that Tania called him first for Ares to seriously hear what he wanted to say.

"From tomorrow you must keep your distance from me. I was healthy and no longer felt any pain. Your responsibility is done, so you don't have to follow me wherever I go." Tania.

"following you? Did I ever follow you?" Ares tried to dilute the atmosphere because Tania looked very serious looking at him.

"I seriously said it. You need to get away from me, and I don't think we need to study together anymore either. But I hope you're still learning." Tania. "Yes, the agreement is still valid, but we don't have to study together. I'll give you the things you have to do and you can do it alone. If there's something you don't understand, you can ask it through a message to me."

Ares was annoyed to hear Tania's words. The young man snorted arrogantly.

"Yes, okay. I'll follow everything you just asked for. I won't come near you again tomorrow. This is the last time we're together. You take it easy."

Tania was a little surprised that Ares agreed to it just like that.
