Angelicay beside Rudy and ced her head on his chest. She had just woken up from a long sleep, so she couldn''t fall asleep even if she wanted to. But she knew Rudy would wake up soon, and she wanted him to see her first as soon as he opened his eyes.


    However, Lilim woke up before Rudy, and she noticed Angelica. They both stared at each other for a few seconds without saying anything, seemingly waiting for the other one to utter a word.


    "What are you staring at?" Angelica asked, finally breaking her silence.


    "The first thing I saw after waking up was your face… what a torture. You can''t feel the pain I am experiencing."


    "..."


    Angelica was at a loss for words.


    "Rx, that was a joke."


    "Oh, was I supposed tough at that? Because as far as I am aware, jokes are supposed to be funny that makes peopleugh," she uttered in a grumpy tone.


    SIGH!


    "Are you really Jessica?" Lilim asked after a short sigh.


    "Why are you asking?"


    "I… thought Jessica would be friendlier…"


    "Do you remember thest time we met?"


    "..."


    "We were kids back then, and now we have grown up. Not every friend stays together. They all leave."


    "I wish I was there when you… died. But what would I have done if I had been there with you? Rudy must be there, and if he couldn''t save you… no one could."


    "I am not in the mood to talk about my death. Let''s switch the topic." Angelica raised her brow and asked, "Why are you here?"


    "Why shouldn''t I be? I am where Rudy is."


    "This is his house."


    "So it is mine."


    "Uhh… no. This is my home. You were just a guest."


    Lilim rested her head on Rudy''s arm by the chest and grinned before saying, "And this guest is increasing her stay."


    "Would you two stop talking when someone is trying to sleep?" Rudy uttered without opening his eyes.


    "Wake up. It''s morning," Angelica poked Rudy on the chest.


    "Let him sleep for as long as he wants," Lilim said.


    "He has to go to school."


    "He doesn''t need to."


    "Yes, she is right. I don''t need to," Rudy seconded Lilim.


    "..." Angelica sat up and shrugged her shoulders after saying, "Okay then. Don''t me me if Lucy barges into this room and sees you on the bed with Lilim and me. Maybe I should take my clothes off to add some spice to the misunderstanding."


    "..." Rudy opened his eyes and shook his head at Angelica in disbelief.


    Angelica moved her gaze from Rudy to Lilim and said, "Get up. We will talk about everything you want."


    Lilimzily got up and kissed Rudy on the lips.


    "Here is your good morning kiss, daddy."


    "Hmm~ Thank you." Rudy kissed her back while ncing at Angelica from the corner of his eyes. "You know how to wake your man up. Unlike someone who doesn''t care about me."


    "Is that so?" Angelica walked to the door and said, "Okay then. Let me make myself at home."


    Rudy pulled her back using telekinesis and gave her a kiss as well.


    "Angelica wasn''t this short-fused. But Jessica definitely was. I guess I have to be careful before I tease you."


    "I want more than a kiss~"


    "I am no longer spoiling you. You are not a kid."<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    Angelica touched her hair and asked, "What about my hair? Are they still white?"


    "Only from the edges."


    SIGH!


    She sighed in relief and muttered, "I didn''t want them to stay white."


    "Rudy, wake up~! The breakfast is ready~" Lucy called him out from downstairs.


    Rudy got up from the bed and turned to Lilim.


    "What will you do? You can join me for breakfast if you want."


    Lilim shook her head and said, "I will talk with Angelica."


    "You can go to school without me. I will meet you at the pool houseter," Angelica told him.


    "Are you sure you can live without me?" Rudy scoffed softly.


    "I seem to have ghostly powers like I showed you. I think that increased my capacity to hold your powers in my body."


    "I wasn''t talking about that…" He muttered. "Call me if you need anything."


    Rudy went downstairs and ate breakfast with Lucy. While Lucy took a bath, Rudy cleaned up the table and washed the dishes. After that, she left for school while Rudy waited for Reba to return home.


    He called her phone, and she told him that she would bete as the new month''s stock had just arrived and they needed to rearrange the shelves and the products.


    Rudy was a bit sad as he was looking forward to spending some alone time with Reba. Especially after he was interrupted by Lucy a day before.


    Regardless, he teleported outside Alice''s house and walked to J''s house. But J wasn''t at her usual spot.


    "Is J noting today?" Alice asked with a puzzled look on her face.


    "We are earlier than usual. Let''s wait for her."


    "I will call her."


    Alice called J, but she didn''t pick up.


    "She is not picking up."


    "Try again."


    Before Alice could do that, she received a call from J.


    [Yes?]


    "Where are you?" Alice asked. "We are waiting for you."


    [I just took a bath. It will take five more minutes.]


    "We will wait."


    Alice hung up the call and turned to Rudy to inform him, but he had already heard everything.


    "Let''s wait," she said. She nced around and asked, "Where is the bench?"


    "They removed it."


    "Where will we sit then?"


    "Myp is always avable to sit on."


    They decided to stand and wait for J.


    Even though she had said that it would take her five minutes, it took her fifteen minutes to arrive. However, there was something different about her, physically as well as in her domineer."


    She had cut her hair from full length, reaching her waist, to short hair reaching her shoulder.


    ραпdα---n?νa| сom Before Rudy and Alice could ask anything about that, J asserted:


    "I am having an image change."
