The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 29

"What about the curtains? You can cover yourself with them. It seems quite warm." Hendra awkwardly persuaded Aruna.
His brain started to get stuck
"NOPE!! You haven't washed it, right?! Did you think I'm a cat who fell in the bathtub?! " Aruna refused with a rising intonation.
She was a little annoyed and tired.
'She's right. Why am I so stupid?!'
Hendra looked around the room, looking for something which can be utilized.
"Aaa..chew!!!" Aruna felt her body getting cold.
"Go.. Away... Buy me clothes." Aruna asked.
"Wait a minute, follow me." Hendra found an idea.
At least, it was to warm the girl's body before he went out looking for clothes.
"Can you walk?" Hendra stopped walking, realising that Aruna's leg was hurt, making it difficult for her to walk.
"Come here, let me help you." Hendra tried to get closer
"No, no... Just ignore me." Aruna didn't want to be watched.
The man bent over to offer his back.
"I ... don't... want to!!" Her refusal was like a cranky kid.
'You just stole and saw that part when you carried me. How could I do it twice? I'm not a fool tho.'
"Come on... Don't complicate things. How could I glance at it if....?!?!"
'What should I call it??'
"Two circles are on my back." Hendra boasted.
He was thankful to be able to find a non-controversial term.
Aruna ventured, climbing on the back of the annoying man. She couldn't help thinking that she could experience an embarrassing incident like this.
Hendra opened one of the main rooms in the mansion.
"Why did you bring me to this place!!" Aruna twitched to get down.
"I don't want to ... Get me off ... Let me go!!" The girl grabbed Hendra's hair, pulling his head, making trouble.

"Aargh... It hurts!" Hendra complained.
"There's a blanket inside. Can you use it !?" He added.
"You're not lying??" Aruna threatened.
"Why would I lie? Don't be too confident. A grumpy little girl like you doesn't even look like a woman." Hendra defended himself.
'Ah, he's right.' Aruna thought.
"Now, let go of my hair." Hendra felt his head hurt.
"You know what? There's a valuable company asset inside my head." The man meant his brain.
"I just grabbed it a little. You won't need a concussion." Aruna felt a little guilty.
Hendra lowered Aruna's body on the big bed.
To give light to this lightless room, the man gently pulled the curtain, spreaded wide, covering the glass windows.
The Jakarta city expanse was beautifully captured from the top of the mansion' skyscrapers.
Hendra secretly glanced at her once again, looking at the shining Aruna.
'This girl really bothered me.'
Aruna tried to find the best position to cover herself in the big white mattress with a thick blanket on it.
"Hmm, it also gets wet."
The blanket that Aruna was sitting on became wet due to her dress.
"You better take off your clothes before everything gets wet." Hendra suggested.
"Can you come out??"
"Yes, of course."
***
Hendra's secretary was trying to carry groceries. He was in the elevator crammed with other mall visitors.
When the atmosphere was more relaxed, Surya tried to check his phone.
'What?? I have to go back downstairs? Oh God, I haven't had breakfast. He!! (irritably called Hendra) keep telling me. Did he think I am a robot?'
Surya didn't get off the elevator when he reached the top floor. He returned to the mall downstairs.
'Why should I buy him clothes?!' Well, who cares. I'll just eat first.'

Surya stopped at the food court, grinned and began to choose the food menu.

"Hendra, I am done." The girl's voice called.
Spontaneously, the blue-eyed man entered and what he saw made him shake his head.
"Are you really a girl??" Hendra directed his index finger on the shirt that fell scattered on the floor.
"I'm sorry, hehe." The girl was rushed off the bed, closed her clothes with a blanket that hung on her tiny body.
"Hehehe, can I get a plastic bag?"
'Hendra, please focus... Don't think about strange things.'
Hendra hurried out of the room, looking for a plastic bag. He erratically walked around.
'That grumpy little girl makes me look stupid again.'
'Aargh... Why did I think about that again?'
As a normal man, he was quite disturbed when he found some underwear lying in front of him. Not to mention that the girl didn't wear anything and innocently stood up.
Weren't neurons in the brain able to modify a sketch of a body part wrapped in a blanket?
Hendra threw the plastic bag and turned around, avoiding Aruna. The girl slowly adjusted her clothes.
If other people saw this, they might think absurdly.
"Are you done?? If so, I'll go first."
"Wait!"

The Swarm
Anthony had been looking forward to playing the hottest new virtual reality game. When he put the VR helmet on he was met with a prompt asking him if he wanted to take a test to become a swarm knight. Thinking that this was one of the classes in the game he accepted. Instead of finding himself in the game, Anthony found that he was transported to a different planet. A planet where he would learn the greater truth of the universe. Everything was based on magic in the universe. Except that magic was based on nanorobots, called the swarm, that had been created through highly advanced technology. Genetics determined the access level and the amount of control that someone could wield over the swarm, and therefore their status in this society. Long ago Earth had been cutoff from the swarm. Now that it had been rediscovered, Earth would be reintegrated into the swarm. Unfortunately when that happened all the current technology on Earth would fail and be replaced with the ability to use magic. In effect, it would be the system apocalypse. As someone able to control the swarm, Anthony found himself in the unique position to influence how Earth was reintegrated into the swarm. Perhaps he could change things enough to save most of the people on Earth. But first he would have to learn how to control the swarm and become one of the leaders in the society he found himself in. Warning: If this fiction was a movie I'd rate it somewhere between PG-13 and R for occasional scenes of violence, gore, and nudity.
