Chereads / The Mysterious Woman, Ruby / Chapter 7 - Chapter 6

Chapter 7 - Chapter 6

(Eugen)

-"No, but why did you do that?"

Eugen fixes his friend Aron with amazement, still not returning that he is lying for him about his job.

-"Calm yourself! Dude... I didn't know you were so attached to this girl"

-"How could you know! You just showed up. And you throw that in his face. What will she think of me when she knows the shitty work I do."

Trying to calm his voice and not rush to Aron. He pulls on his hair by fixing the wall near the shelf.

-"OK, I shit I admit... But think you really have a chance with this girl if she knew what you were doing as a job. I know this kind of woman, their only priority is the tune."

Eugen suddenly turns to Aron, starving at him. A finger pointed at his friend, he fulminates:

-"You don't know her"

-" Neither do you man. I'm sorry to tell you that way but that's the strict truth."

-"He's not wrong buddy. I understand very well that you don't want to believe it. But still"

Joe goes to Eugen by tapping him with understanding on his shoulder.

-"You're not going to get started too!"

Eugen blows and goes to Ruby's car, his friends on his heels. He observes the damage by ignoring Joe who is trying to help him

-"You're not going to yell for that? We're just trying to make you see things. Ruby is a goddess, it's true. But what doesn't make you believe that she doesn't idolize money more than anything. You're better placed to know it man... Seen where she works"

Joe advances towards his friend, and puts himself in front of him.

-"You have no idea why she works there, and don't remind me what she does like Shit Work."

Aron also positions himself near him.

-"It's true that we don't know what drives her to play the doll (Eugen gives her a black look). OK, I don't judge her. But what prevents you from playing a role in seeing where it will take you? And whether we are wrong or not?"

Eugen gets up and widens his eyes slightly

-"Wait, you offer me to make her believe that I am rich to be able to fuck her."

-"Not exactly like that. But you can always try"

Eugen casts an emotional look at him by trying to weigh the pros and cons of this shitty plan. He wants to try to see where it will take him with Ruby if he allows himself to present himself as another person. But he also doesn't want to break the hope of being honest with her. It's a bit stupid to pretend to be a bourgeois in order to seduce a woman. He has neither the physique of a rich man nor the means to make him believe that he is

He passes his hand in his hair for the thousandth of the day.

-"It's a real bunch of bullshit all this"

- "you didn't even try!"

-"And how do I intend to pretend to be rich in shit? I live in a slum, I have a car that barely starts and an empty bank account. Tell me how would I make him believe such a lie?"

He takes a look at challenges at Aron, from whom he sends him back to him.

-"Be me!"

He pronounces his words as obvious, to the point that Eugen looks at him totally disoriented.

-"What?"

-"I have a job that pays well! Why not pretend to be me? "

Eugen shakes his head sneering and looks at his friend as if he had been pushed a second head.

-"You're completely crazy!"

He accompanies his words by continuing to repair the car.

-"It's a proposal! Think about it at least. Isn't it a chance for you to know her better, right?"

Eugen blows and continues to find good tools to repair the car before Ruby arrives.

-"Fucking let me go with that you want!"

Aron raises his hands and smiles accomplice to Joe, who was sitting on a hood with a bottle of water in his hand.

-"OK OK"

*****

An hour of hard work repairing the car of his everyday fantasy, Eugen wipes his face from his forearm, satisfied with his work he straightens up.

-"Then the queen's carriage finally gave in to your charm."

-"Close Joe!"

He bypasses his friend, starving at him. This one sneers without being touched by Eugen's mood.

-"You know that it's been an hour since your redhead disappeared..."

Without answering him, Eugen continues to store his tools

-"... And we have half an hour left to close"

-"You can leave... I'll close the garage"

-"Oh..."

Joe smiles with a screaming air and gently shakes his head as if he had suddenly had a forecast

-"...You intend to conclude that's it.. You don't think it's a little early to fuck with her... Still you.."

Eugen suddenly straightens up from the counter and casts a black look at his friend.

-"Fucking you swallowed a parrot this morning... You give me seriously man... Go fuck your wife"

He resumes his work with a long sigh. Joe sketches a big smile, and disappears in the back.

A sound of footsteps makes Eugen growl again, knowing full well that Joe is back to the charge, he sorts insults in his head to nail his friend once and for all.

-"Joe.. I told you that I had no intention of fucking with Ruby so you can go get used to it."

His rail accompanies a long silence, knowing that Joe is the type to respond without the slightest tact, a frown bars his forehead when he raises his head. His eyes widen and his mouth opens slightly, seeing the person in front of him, who is not Joe but the young redhead. A nervous feeling invaded him and made him cough slightly. With a sensual smile, Ruby approaches Eugen and touches him with his arm with his protruding muscles. She bites her lower lip by bending towards her face and blows her ear:

-"Delight to know"
