Rudy could feel his mories increasing, and that ca with an unbearable pain in his head. He couldn't show it on his face, otherwise Alice would have misunderstood and the situation would have beco worse.
Rudy had indeed unlocked the mories, but the mories were only of his ti with Alice. His mories of Alice and the other girls were still sealed and couldn't rember a thing about them.
'With these mories, I rembered a few of the powers, or rather, the abilities, I had invented. Well, not invented since those abilities of course existed before and that's why I was able to use them.'
Amid all that, a certain question left Rudy puzzled. 'I confessed to Alice and we started dating, but what about Elise? Did I go out with Alice to avoid the tragic incident of the future? I have to find out. However, my love for Alice isn't fake. There are other ways to change the future where I wouldn't have to date Alice, but I want to date her. I love her and that's a fact. Nothing can change that.'
Rudy's ears twitched as he heard the sound of the car approaching near.
'George is back. He should be here within a minute.'
Rudy looked at Alice and thought, 'I don't know what's going on, but I have to protect Alice.'
He kissed Alice on the lips and wiped her tears.
'I just used a spell on her which would annihilate anyone who tried to touch her with evil intentions. I shouldn't worry about her now,' he uttered inwardly.
"Okay, if you insist on staying here, I have no problem. But take care of yourself, okay?" He rubbed his thumb on her cheeks.
Alice nodded in response and closed her eyes.
'Uhm… my dating experience tells she wants another kiss.'
Rudy kissed her again and played with her tongue until George's car reached the house. Alice imdiately pushed Rudy back and made so distance between them, wiping her remaining tears.
Rudy couldn't help but smile, and asked, "What's wrong? You don't want George to know about us?"
"It's not like that. I don't want anyone to know about us. Especially Janet. Don't let her know about this," Alice uttered in a sober tone, but with a slightly flushed face.
"Don't worry. Janet won't do anything, even if she found out about us. Trust ."
While Rudy was reassuring Alice, the car passed through the gate and stopped in front of the garage. A few seconds later, George walked out of the car and fixed his clothes.
"Hey, you are back." He greeted them with a smile. "What are you doing outside? Co, let's go inside."
"Oh, we just got here." Rudy responded in Alice's stead. "I was asking her if she wants to stay the night at my house, but she turned down."
George turned to Alice and uttered, "You can go if you want to, Alice. You don't have school tomorrow, so it should be okay if you spend the night at Rudy's house."
Alice shook her head and replied, "I am staying the night at Janet's house. Rudy's house has his mother and aunt. I won't be able to enjoy it there."
Rudy raised a brow and thought, 'She is right. Even if Jessica sleeps with mom tonight, Alice would have to spend the night with . If not on my bed, at least in my room.'
"Do as you want. I won't force you." George shrugged his shoulders with a smile on his face. He then turned to Rudy and said, "Why don't you co in?"
He raised the bag in his hand to show it to Rudy and said, "I have brought Alice's favorite ice cream. I am sure you would like to eat it too."
"Oh, I would love to, but it's getting late and I need to be at ho."
"Do you want to drop you ho?" George asked.
"I have to buy sothing on the way, so I can't accept your offer. I appreciate the thought, though."
"I see. Take care on your way back ho and be careful of your surroundings. The monsters always lurk in the shadows and prefer to co out at night."
"I will." Rudy nodded.
After bidding farewell to George and Alice, Rudy left in a hurry. Once he was around the block, he glanced around to make sure no one was looking at him. And then, he teleported in front of his house.
He went inside and greeted Rebecca and Jessica, who were preparing the dinner.
"You are back. I was expecting you to return with a tan, but you look the sa as before," Jessica comnted. "What did you do at the water park?"
"Co on, I didn't go to the beach."
"Rudy, go take a bath." Rebecca washed her hands and handed a glass of water to Rudy. She then gave him his clothes and a tower before saying, "And wash yourself thoroughly. The pool's water is always dirty and contains chemicals."
'I could argue about it, but she is not entirely wrong,' Rudy thought to himself.
"Okay."
He went to the bathroom and took a cold shower to relax. HIs head was still aching from the mories, but it wasn't as bad as before.
He looked at his hands and muttered, "I have to find out what's going on. How did I unlock my mories after kissing Alice? Perhaps… kiss was a trigger? If that's the case, what do I have to do to unlock more mories? Kissing her again did nothing, so now I must try sothing different."
The movie had gained Rudy's curiosity, and he couldn't wait for the movie to progress.
Once Rudy was done with the shower, he joined Rebecca and Jessica for dinner. While eating, they talked about what they did today. After they were done with the dinner, Rudy helped Rebecca to wash the dishes.
Suddenly, Jessica proposed an idea.
"Since we all have nothing to do now except sleep, shall we watch a movie together?" she wondered with a cheerful look on her face, which Rebecca couldn't bear to refuse.
"Okay, but keep it family friendly, got it?"
"Of course," Jessica grinned and smirked at Rudy.
"..." While Rudy didn't say anything, deep down, he was sure that Jessica was planning sothing and it wouldn't end well.
