The Married With The Devil

Rico

Rico who had been waiting for Bianca's arrival in front of his class, suddenly smiled broadly when he saw the arrival of the girl. Today, as always, Bianca looks so beautiful. Unlike most Americans who have blond hair, Bianca has a black mane typical of Asians. No wonder indeed, because, his grandfather—father of the mother, has Asian blood.

“Bianca, good morning.” Greet Rico when Bianca just got to the front of her class.

“Again, Rico.” Reply Bianca as she steps into her class. No matter where Rico is.

Without hesitation, Rico stepped in—following Bianca. The whole class turned its attention to him. Especially when he deliberately stood in close proximity next to Bianca.

“Hah.” Bianca sighed softly and then turned to look at Rico. In fact, he knew that the man had deliberately waited and followed him all the way to the classroom. Only, Bianca pretended to be indifferent, in hopes, Rico did not bother her. But unfortunately, the man was even more courageous to approach him.

“Hum ... Bianca, I want to take you to lunch together.” The mood of the class suddenly boomed after hearing Rico's words. Every now and then, someone whistled in a seductive tone. But Bianca responded casually. As if I was used to it.

“But Lily and I have promised to eat together.” Bianca immediately looked at Lily who had only been watching in silence. So that made his best friend nod quickly in response.

“I don't matter.” Not knowing the word surrender, Rico again tried to get Bianca to accept his offer.

“Tapi—baik.” Reluctantly, Bianca complies with Rico's request. Aside from not wanting to humiliate the man in front of his classmates, Bianca also felt careless when some girls looked at her dislikefully. It was obvious that they were fans of the captain of the basketball team.

“Really? Then, see you later.” After exclaiming joy, Rico quickly stepped away leaving Bianca waving excitedly. However, shortly after he disappeared from Bianca's sight, the happiness on his face was replaced with a sly grin.

“I'll do anything to get you.” His mind smiled with satisfaction.

Rico's arrival with Bianca in the school cafeteria, for the first time, became an interesting spectacle at this time. Because, it is not a secret anymore if since long ago, Rico has been chasing Bianca. And their current togetherness makes others assume that Bianca finally fell into the hands of the man.

“What do you want to eat? Let me order for you.” Rico said in a sweet tone. The successful one made Bianca and Lily stare at each other with frowns.

“As far as you are.” Bianca said without interest while inviting Lily to chat together. Intentionally wanting to ignore the inquisitive gazes from the surroundings.

Shortly after his departure, Rico appeared with a tray of two medium-sized cheeseburgers, a serving of spaghetti and three cans of fizzy drink.

“Thank you, Rico.” Lily said with a small smile to Rico, whom the man replied with a nod of his head. While Bianca was busy filling her stomach with a portion of cheese burger that was bought by Rico. There was no word of thanks from his lips. Because according to Bianca, Rico himself invited— to force him to have lunch together.

Amidst his activities filling the stomach, Rico never let go of the slightest attention from Bianca's face. As often as he saw the girl, Rico was never satisfied. Even his desire to have Bianca grew bigger. And inviting Bianca to lunch together is currently included in one of her ways to approach the girl. Rico also felt so satisfied when Bianca would accept his invitation, which he said became one of the proof if the girl began to melt into all her efforts. At least, that's what Rico thought.

After allowing Bianca to wave briefly at her best friend Lily, Jimmy immediately drove the car he was driving through a road that was not too crowded by the vehicle. Even though the sidewalk was filled with school students who had just returned home.

“Where are we going?” Bianca asks while staring at Jimmy through the rearview mirror in the car when she realizes they are not heading to Alan's house.

“We have to pick up master first.” Jimmy answered briefly. Then refocus driving.

“Didn't he always bring a car?”

“Master deliberately did not bring a car and ordered to pick her up after picking up Miss Bianca.” Bianca nodded in understanding then turned her attention out the window. Even if it was late afternoon, but the sun was still shining brightly up there. And Bianca feels lucky when she is currently away and home from school driving a private car. In the past, he had to walk every day to the bus stop. Plus, he also had to walk a long way to get to his house located in a small alley.

“Jimmy, stop!” peekot Bianca's. The thing that makes Jimmy want to not stop the car suddenly. Lucky they didn't hit anything.

“What's up, Miss?” jimmy asked, turning to look at Bianca.

“For you.” Arriving in the car, Bianca immediately thrust a glass of milkshake cappucino on Jimmy. The man replied with a squeak on the forehead.

“Forku?” asked Jimmy doubtfully. This time, someone gave her a drink.

“Hu-um.” Bianca replied, nodding her head as she was busy sipping her chocolate milkshake. And smiled with satisfaction as the cold drink soaked his throat.

“Thank you, Miss.” Jimmy said full of sincerity while taking the milkshake that Bianca still offered him. Without Bianca realizing it, on the sidelines of her activity split the road, the two corners of Jimmy's lips lifted up to form a small smile.

After receiving a phone call from Jimmy and saying he had been in front of his office building, Alan immediately stepped away from his office. Today, he was able to complete his entire work quickly. Of course with the help of his secretary—Lucy.

“After a time.” Said Alan in a made-up tinge after he had just gotten into the car. And Jimmy's back in focus driving to Alan's house.

“Your own fault did not bring the car.” Reply Bianca nonchalantly. Then back busy with chocolate milkshakes in his hands.

“What is it?” alan asked, pointing at something in Bianca's hand. Since then, his eyes have never been separated from the closed plastic clear glass held by his wife.

“Milkshake.” Answer Bianca briefly. It was as if she had no intention of talking to her husband.

“Forku?” alan asked, pointing to himself.

“Tak. You can buy yourself.” Bianca replied as she looked at Alan with a mocking smile. Intentionally wanting to upset the man.

Bianca realizes that the milkshake she bought was using money from Alan. Every day, the man never forgot to leave a hundred dollar bill on the nightstand in their room as his pocket money. While his other needs were also borne by the man. At first, Bianca refused, staring at Alan in disbelief. He never held much money. Even while still living with his parents, they only give pocket money as much as twenty dollars for one week.

But because her husband never knew the sentence of rejection, Bianca could only accept resignedly. And the rest of his pocket money he saved himself.

“This one is for me only.” Alan said casually while intending to take a glass of milkshake located on the drink holder in his car. But his movement stopped when he heard Jimmy's words.

“This one is mine, Mr.” Jimmy said firmly while holding the milkshake glass. As if forbidding Alan to touch let alone take it. Alan was stunned, his eyes could only stare at Jimmy in disbelief.

“Good job, Jimmy.” Bianca said happily while chuckling amusedly. Alan let out an irritated sigh and turned to look at Bianca with squinting eyes. Bianca fell silent, especially when one corner of Alan's lips was pulled upwards.

With a quick movement, Alan landed a small kiss on Bianca's cheek while smiling with satisfaction.

“Alan!” Bianca shouted in surprise as she glanced at the rearview mirror inside. It's really embarrassing especially if Jimmy sees it. But as usual, all Bianca got was the expressionless face of the blue-eyed man.

“Woah!” Bianca who was intending to climb the stairs gasped in shock when Alan suddenly pulled her hand and made himself inside the man's arms. Lucky he didn't fall.

“Shut up and don't protest.” Decree Alan. And Bianca's body reflexively followed the man's orders.

“Hei–I want mand—” Before finishing his speech, Alan has already imprisoned Bianca's lips. Her pengulum is full of tenderness.

“Reply for the one before.” Alan said casually as he climbed the stairs. Leaving Bianca who was staring at him inadmissibly complete with an oath of annoyance.
