Those sharp eyes never looked away from Jessica. Blame Vera because she told Alex everything about the incident at the club the other day. Alex immediately scolded Jessica as soon as he got out of his car.
"Next time, if you want to go to such a place, take me! That place is not safe for an innocent girl like you! Why would you want to go to a nightclub?" Alex was still nagging.
Not in the slightest Jessica dared to refute the man's words because she knew Alex cared. Well yes, Jessica felt that this was all her fault, she should not have gone to that place and troubled everyone, including Sean.
"Al, do you think Sean is good or not?" asked Jessica as soon as Alex finished nagging.
"How do I know! You know him better, right?"
"That's right." mumbled the girl quietly.
"Come on!" Alex exclaimed still with a sour face.
He immediately left his job just like that when Vera told the incident the other day. Luckily Vera also told Jessica, so the girl could get ready to face Alex's tantrum.
"Don't be angry, Al! The important thing is, I'm fine, right?"
Alex stopped walking and turned to look at the girl sharply.
"What if Sean didn't show up at that time?" he snapped.
Ah, that was the thing that Jessica didn't want to think about the most. Really, what can she who is weak do? It was scary.
"I'm not going to a place like that again! Don't be angry anymore!"
"I'm angry because I care about you! I'm afraid that something bad will happen to you!"
Jessica immediately closed her mouth tightly. Alex's anger hasn't subsided, so it's better to be quiet, or Alex will be angry all the time.
Alex took a deep breath then left the share house.
Besides Rey, Alex is the first man to be this kind and considerate to Jessica. Luckily Vera has an older brother like him.
"Your boyfriend is just worried, don't worry, tomorrow will be over." someone chirps from behind Jessica.
Whoops!
Jessica turned around and passed Lusi who was smiling meaningfully at her. Lusi sat on the sofa and leaned her body there.
"You should be grateful to have a boyfriend like him," added Lusi while sitting beside Jessica.
"Seriously, Alex is your boyfriend? Wow, finally my brother sold out. Thank God."
Jessica almost jumped when she heard Vera's scream from the kitchen. She immediately pinched her temples, everything would be complicated now. What should she say to Vera?
"How come you just found out, Vi? You suck! You're his sister!" Lusi pouted.
"Just so you know, he is a closed person when it comes to love. He's so secretive, our family never thought he was gay, you know!"
Jessica almost laughed hearing Vera's story. Playboy pros like Alex are said to be gay? Seriously.
"Are you serious? Have you never even caught Alex on the phone with a woman, walking, or something that shows his interest in women?" asked Lusi so enthusiastically.
"Never! He always goes with his friends, never with a girl! Then, regarding telephone calls, I've never even heard of him on the phone!"
Hearing Vera's story, Jessica immediately wondered, how come Vera never caught he is dating? Isn't Alex a playboy?
"But Vi, as far as you know, Alex used to be a playboy, don't you know?!" interrupted Jessica.
"Ha???" Vera screamed in disbelief.
"Why are you so surprised? Alex used to be a playboy!"
"What are you talking about? Alex is a playboy? For God Shake!"
Now, the most confused among the girls was Lusi. Isn't this weird? Vera whose Alex never finds any signs that Alex likes women, while his girlfriend calls him a playboy?! Oh, my!
"Look, I'm asking you, Jess! When you were dating, did Alex kiss you?"
Jessica immediately froze hearing Lusi's question. How could Alex kiss her?!
"From your expression, I can conclude that you have never been kissed by Alex!" said Lusi with a look full of inquiry.
"Oh God, could it be that you were only used by Alex to hide his true identity. Oh My!" Vera immediately rushed to embrace Jessica.
Jessica wants to run away right now to avoid questions about Alex that she can't answer.
"No, Vi, your brother is not gay!"
"You don't need to protect Alex like this! You have to be honest with me, so we can determine the right treatment for him. Go to a psychologist, psychiatrist, shaman, whatever it is so he doesn't turn away!"
Lusi's reflex covered Vera's mouth before the girl said anything else.
"Relax Vi, we don't know for sure yet!" said Lusi fast.
"Then how do you prove it?" Vera looks very worried.
"Let's just say, if Jessica manages to give evidence in the form of a photo of when Alex kissed her, then it's clear that he's normal!"
Jessica froze again hearing the crazy idea from Lusi.
"I'm agreed!" Vera exclaimed enthusiastically.
"No! I don't agree, it's embarrassing, it's our privacy!" Jessica half-shouted.
"This is for Vera and her mother! So they don't have to worry anymore if Alex turns a corner! After all, what's wrong with that? People just kiss!"
Jessica shook her head weakly. Where could she possibly bring the evidence? But... seeing Vera's eyes made Jessica feel pity, she feel sorry for Vera and her family who have been worried about Alex.
"Please! After all, it's only us who see it, not other people!"
Oh, God...
"Okay, fine." cried Jessica at last.
Vera immediately smiled broadly and hugged Jessica tightly.
"A week should be enough! Within a week, you should be able to give us the evidence, Put!"
Jessica immediately glared at Lusi who could only smile innocently at her.
For whatever reason, the culprit must be taught a lesson!
"But it's suspicious, why don't you guys even kiss? You guys are dating, right?"
Oh, Jessica really can't take it anymore. He immediately grabbed the pillow that was nearby and slapped Lusi with it.
"Yeah, just curious, Jess!"
"Look, now I'm asking you back! Have you and Rey ever done anything?!" Jessica looked at Lusi inquiringly.
And now, it's Lusi's turn to slap Jessica using a sofa cushion.
