Chapter 15

Christmas Eve. That's right, it's an event where couples usually meet under the mistletoe, either near a park, mall or just at home.

Of course, I prefer home, because I want to experience Christmas for the first time in the city, as someone who has a girlfriend.

Julia is cooking soup and I'm decorating, we really are like a newly married couple.

There was the sound of the doorbell.

"Joseph, can you please open it, I think the KFC guy is here."

"Ok."

I went straight to the entrance and opened the door.

"Merry Christmas!"

I saw a woman holding a bottle of wine and the KFC package we ordered.

"Oh yeah, there was a KFC guy out front, so I might as well take it."

"Thank you." I immediately took the KFC she was holding and closed the door.

"WAIT A MINUTE BOY!" she held the door open with her foot. This woman is crazy.

In the end, she came inside.

"Julia! Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas, Mia. I thought you'd be out drinking with your friends."

"It's Christmas Eve, why should I choose to go drinking instead of seeing you? You're more precious."

"What a flirt! Oh yeah, Joseph leaves the chicken to me, you can wait with Mia in the living room."

"This is Julia..."

"Thank you."

Julia went straight back to the kitchen. I looked at her from behind, and for some reason, something as trivial as this made me happy.

"Hooooh...." The voice was from the crazy woman beside me.

"What?" in an annoyed tone.

"Nothings. I'm just surprised by your rapid development."

I knew she was blowing me off, but I had to show I wasn't upset, otherwise, I'd lose to her.

"I'll take that as a compliment, thank you."

We both head to the living room, where we sit on the sofa, and in front of us is a smart tv. I had purposely bought a premium subscription to be able to a movie marathon, if possible horror, even though I'm scared, but I think you know what I mean.

"I'm sure in your mind right now; I was supposed to be alone with my Auntie, but this woman showed up instead, how annoying! Isn't that right?"

"You're an Esper, are you?"

"So, how far have you two?"

"That's none of your business! Only a few days ago, we became a couple, after all. I also want to take this relationship slowly."

"That sucks! Most couples in the city have sex even on the first day and there are even some who have done it before they became a couple."

I immediately lower my head, "damn! I should have learned more about being a real citizen, I really regret not knowing this earlier."

Soon Julia came with food and drinks.

"Here are the food and drinks. I'm sorry it's just this, I was planning to cook turkey, but we ran out when we went shopping yesterday."

"It's okay Julia, by the way since when did you wear contact lenses?"

"Since I came home from the hospital. For some reason I don't want to wear glasses anymore, is that bad?"

"It's okay, you're getting prettier! I actually want to kiss you now."

Even though it was said by an old lady, my emotions feel like they will explode.

"You can't! Because I belong to Joseph now."

I am speechless... And happy.

"Nooo! My Julia has been taken by this horny boy!"

Open google. Type in; how to make a poison that can kill a person in a few days.

"It's Christmas Eve, let's not fight. Let's enjoy it together. Joseph has bought a premium subscription for the movie marathon, let's get going."

Finally, the three of us did a movie marathon, but all the movies were Julia's choice, and we watch Korean dramas.

As much as I hate to admit it, I and this old lady have something in common, we don't like it. It can be seen from her expression while watching and I also have a similar expression with her.

In the middle of the movie, she pours wine for me and Julia. I honestly didn't want to, but since I didn't like the movie, and I couldn't possibly show it to Julia, I chose to drink.

One glass, two glasses, and on and on.

Until I finally passed out from being drunk.

***

I tried to open my eyes. At the same time, my head felt like it had been hit from behind.

I go to the bathroom to wash my face. Limping and with blurred vision, I tried not to fall. When I got inside, I immediately washed my face and....

"Wait a minute! Why am I naked!?" Not only did that shock me, but also... "why are there so many hickey marks all over my body?"

I ran straight into the room and saw the two of them on the couch naked. But only Julia's body was covered in hickey marks, just like mine.

It is obvious who the Asshole is.

Let's end this chapter, before changing the genre to gore.
