The Power Enthusiast

MINERVO 90: Late

"WE'RE HOME!"

Paul immediately kicked the front door of his house that was closed to open with a fairly loud slam. When the door was wide open, Paul was surprised by a tall man who was daydreaming in the guest chair alone. When he noticed Paul's presence, the man smiled faintly.

"Pauls. Cherry's. Naomi's. And, "The man squinted his eyes at Isabella."Who?"

"Cherry thinks who, it's just Abbas!" cry Cherry when clearly see the figure of the tall man. Cherry and the others, went straight into the living room and sat down on the sofa circling the table. Later, Cherry tried to introduce a new person before Abbas. "This hot girl's name is Isabella Melvana! She's a popular ex-prostitute in Luna City, you know! She is also very good at teasing and judging others!" Cherry whispered to Abbas. "Be careful."

After sitting on the sofa, and putting two black plastic bags of money on the table, Isabella put a friendly smile on Abbas as she extended her hand, "As Cherry said. That's my name. And your name is Abbas? Interesting name, my womb so warm to hear that name. Ah, just greetings, Abbas."

Abbas accepted Isabella's hand and they shook hands. Abbas just nodded and smiled.

"Eh?" Paul's nose twitched, and his forehead shriveled. "It looks like I'm smelling an unpleasant scent here. The smell came from my mother's room!" Paul immediately rushed into Elena's room and went inside to check on her.

"Coko!?" Paul is shocked that Koko is in his mother's room. "What are you doing here?"

"P-Paul?" Koko is shocked to see Paul's surprise arrival. "W-You're home yet? S-Thankful." Although Koko said so, she was actually anxious and restless, afraid that Paul would scold her for letting Aunt Elena get so sick like that. Koko gets confused as to what to say to explain everything that happened. "S-As you can see. T-Tante Elena is sick."

"Seriously!?" Shocked, Paul immediately walked up to the mattress to see the condition of his mother and it turned out to be true, there, the woman was asleep with a compressive cloth placed on the forehead. His face looked pale and wet. "Mother.I'm home."

"WOW!" Jeddy, fresh out of the kitchen, having satiated devouring delicacies in the kitchen, is shocked by something he sees on the guest sofa. "Beautiful girl!" Jeddy's perverted smile was immediately painted on his face and he walked quickly to the guest table to take a close look at the red-haired woman sitting on the sofa with Naomi and Cherry, there was also Abbas there sitting on the sofa opposite. "Hello! I'm Jeddy! Nice to meet you, hehehehe!"

Witnessing Jeddy's arrival, Isabella gave her a teasing smile and said, "Oh? Who is this guy, Cherry? Looks like she's enough," Isabella licked her lips sexyly. "... it's fun."

"He's the one Naomi likes! His name is Jeddy, you know! You remember!? Hihihihihihi!" And a second later, Cherry was wide-eyed in her own words. He had accidentally leaked Naomi's secret in front of Abbas and - worse - Jeddy. "Ah, no! I mean Cherry it-"

Just now Cherry said so, suddenly the little girl's shoulder was grabbed by someone's hand with great horror from behind. After looking a little, it turned out that it came from Naomi's hand. The hooded girl seemed to show an intimidating expression that was extraordinarily frightening.

"I'm sorry?" Naomi tried her best, smiling her friendly smile at Cherry. "So what did you say?"

Jeddy looks tilted his head. Abbas put on a curious face. Cherry shows a look of fear. Isabella, meanwhile, giggles at Naomi's treatment of Cherry.

"I-It-it-"

"Yes! Aye! Yesaaa! It's just a wrong word, really! Hihah! Sorry, yeah!" Cherry, with sweat pouring out, tried to smile cheerfully as usual to keep Jeddy and Abbas unsuspecting. "Sometimes Cherry speaks incoherently! Hihah! Sorry, yes! Cherry is different than you! Hihihi!"

Naomi, nodding her head, agreed to Cherry's words with a faint smile. "So, there's no need to think about it" Naomi told Jeddy and Abbas kindly.

"Oh, is that true?" Isabella supports her chin by sticking her tongue out at Naomi and Cherry. "I don't think it's a wrong word."

All attention was immediately on Isabella, especially Jeddy who seemed confused by this discussion.

"It feels like," Isabella continued her words. "There's something they're hiding" Isabella looked Jeddy in the eye. "Right, right, Jeddy?"

Naomi shook her head quickly. "No! It was just a mistake of words! Cherry didn't really say that! He just mispronounced! Anyways!" Naomi, throwing her face to the side, said in a trembling voice. "I can't possibly like a guy like Jeddy! For me! Jeddy is just a stupid man! Idiotical! Not polite! An idiot! Sloppy! Be stubborn! Big head! And especially! He's an ERIS! It is impossible for me, as a religious Blanche, to love Eris! People who do not follow the same religion as me! It will only increase my sins! M-M-M-Gift!"

Although Naomi said so, deep down in her heart, she was saying 'I really, really, really love you, Jeddy. Im sorry. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Sorry.'

Everyone in the living room gasped at Naomi's words, which seemed very cruel and sadistic to someone. Especially Jeddy, whose face seemed tense, felt himself being disrespected by Naomi. However, slowly, a smile was etched on Jeddy's lips.

"Haha! Sure was! Where is possible too, right? Naomi fell in love with me? That's impossible! Bro! Ahaha! Don't worry, Naomi! I won't take it seriously, though! So just relax! Ahhaha!"

Jeddy laughed out loud after being insulted by Naomi, leaving Cherry, Abbas, and Isabella stunned to see the man's response, who did not look angry or sad to be treated badly. Truly a strong man, Isabella thought while watching Jeddy's movements.

Cherry is also confused about what to say in this situation, because this problem arises due to the actions of the error. That's why Cherry just fell silent stiff, because she was worried what to do. Cherry is actually angry at Naomi's words that demean Jeddy's self-esteem, but on the other hand, she also feels guilty for making Naomi forced to pretend to hate Jeddy.

None of that would have been possible if Cherry had kept her word.

Watching Jeddy not get angry at her words, making Naomi grimace, she gets sick seeing her loved ones have to hear evil words coming out of her mouth. In fact, Naomi realized that her words were outrageous. And Naomi gets nervous about having to apologize in what way to Jeddy.

Instantly, while the atmosphere was tense, someone suddenly appeared from the front door, startling everyone in the living room.

"It looks like I came late," said the person by pressing on his slightly sagging glasses. "So what other incidents are there? Please explain it to me."

It was Nico.
