Anne was surprised when she saw Jack acted like that. The four young men who had been stealing glances at Anne were also shocked.
"Don't try to take what already belongs to someone else, because you don't know what that person will do to keep what is already his," said Jack quietly with a rising voice. His eyes were sweeping over the young men sitting in front of him currently without blinking.
"Jack, what are you doing?" The confused Anne immediately asked Jack in an almost inaudible voice.
Jack, who was still concentrating on the young men who he considered as threats, ignored Anne. He still stared at the young men who were very young. Feeling intimidated by Jack, the young men finally left the fast food restaurant. Even though there were more of them, it was very scary to face the jealous man. Not long after the young men left, a waiter came to bring the food that Jack had paid for. At first, the waiter wanted to call Jack to come, but knowing his customer was in a bad mood, he finally decided to deliver the food directly.
"Please, Miss."
"Thank you." Anne immediately answered the waiter's words. She felt uncomfortable with the waiter bringing the food, though clearly the food should be taken by the buyer.
After the waiter returned to the counter, Anne hit Jack's arm which was on the table.
"What's wrong with you, Jack?"
"What's wrong with me? I'm mad because of you, Anne," Jack answered quickly.
Anne raised her index finger and pointed at her own face in confusion. "Me? What did I do to make you angry?"
"Y-you're too beautiful to be seen by many people like that. I don't like you being seen by other men!!" Jack replied curtly.
Anne's lips immediately closed tightly when she heard Jack's words. Her face suddenly felt hot. Actually it wasn't once or twice that Jack made her nervous and uncomfortable, but this time it felt very different. Jack really made her fly. Jack who even scolded several young men who looked at her made Anne feel special. To relieve the awkwardness, Anne then grabbed a burger and bit it in big bites. She chose to eat to cover up all the strange feelings inside her at this moment. Soon, Jack did what Anne did. He also ate the same burger as Anne. While enjoying the meal, there was no conversation between Anne and Jack, both were lost in their own thoughts.

"Look at those lovers, how cute they are." A female cashier who overheard Anne and Jack's conversation spoke to her co-worker.
The male waiter, who had previously delivered food to Anne and Jack's table smiled. "Don't bother them. It looks like they just had a special event. Just look at that beautiful lady still wearing a beautiful dress and the handsome man is also wearing a formal dress, so we better not disturb them. We should be grateful that our restaurant could be a part of the love story of the two lovers."
The female cashier was seen nodding her head as she paid more attention to Anne and Jack's clothes. She finally returned to focus on her work following the advice given by her co-worker because some customers had come.
Because she was full, drowsiness started to come to Anne. She was seen biting her lower lip several times to get rid of her sleepiness. Jack, who was still focused on his food, didn't realize what Anne was doing. Jack only realized when Anne accidentally spilled the soft drink on the table.
"Anne, what are you doing?!"
After putting down the burger that had not been completely finished, Jack helped Anne who was cleaning her dress from the spilled soft drink.
"I didn't mean to, I just wanted to..."
"Shut up, don't talk much. Sit on a clean chair, let me tidy up the rest," said Jack curtly, cutting Anne's words.
Anne obediently obeyed Jack's orders. She sat down in a chair not far from her original seat. After Anne sat down, Jack then cleaned up the spilled soft drink. Even though he was a buyer, Jack tried to be responsible. When Jack had just grabbed the soft drink can that was on the floor, the male waiter, who had previously delivered the food, came back. He swiftly did his job and forbade Jack to do the cleaning. Not long after that, the table where Anne and Jack ate was again clean and dry. Jack sincerely thanked the male servant. Anne also thanked the waiter, which in turn made him feel awkward, before he finally went back to his work.

"Jack, let's go home, I'm tired," said Anne hopefully without the courage to look up at Jack.
"Are you full?"
"I am, and now I'm very sleepy." Anne answered honestly.
Jack smiled. "Okay, let's go home. But wait a minute, I want to give a tip for the waiter who cleaned our table earlier."
"Okay, I'll wait," answered Anne quickly with a big smile.
Jack grabbed a few bills from his wallet and walked over to the waiter, who was holding a mop. At first, the waiter refused Jack's money. But after Jack spoke for a while, the servant finally accepted Jack's gift. Anne smiled when she saw the servant thanked Jack many times. Because Jack had walked over to her again, Anne then got up from the chair and smiled at Jack's arrival.
"Are we going to the hotel or back to..."
Bam!
Anne hit Jack hard on the arm. "Don't mess with me, Jack, even though I'm very sleepy but I can still get angry with you," he said curtly.
"Hahaha... so grumpy, I was just joking, Anne. Come on, let's go home," said Jack gently as he grabbed Anne's hand which he had just used to hit her hand and walked out of the restaurant to his car which was now alone in the parking lot, as the other cars had already left.
As soon as she got into the car, Anne immediately closed her eyes when she put her seat belt on. Jack just thinned his lips at Anne. He then focused on driving to Anne's new apartment. He was very happy tonight, even though there were some disturbing events. At least, tonight he managed to bind his relationship with Anne, even though it wasn't official and only he and Anne knew, but it was much better now that their relationship had taken one step further.
After driving for almost an hour, Jack finally arrived at Anne's new apartment building. He didn't need much checking because his car plate number was already listed in the apartment security database, so the security guard didn't need to check it. Once his car was park neatly in the basement, Jack then woke Anne. However, Anne, who was very tired, did not respond to anything Jack was doing. She just muttered incoherently which indicated that she was really very sleepy right now. Because he didn't want to disturb Anne's sleep, Jack finally decided to carry her bridal style into the apartment building. Jack's smile did not disappear from his face when he was holding Anne. He was very happy to see her sleeping in his arms like that. It didn't take long for Jack to arrive at the unit. He immediately walked over to the big bed in the main bedroom and carefully lowered Anne.
"Anne, wake up, we're here. Do you want to sleep in this dirty clothes? Are you comfortable?" whispered Jack softly in Anne's ear. Jack knew Anne would not be comfortable if she slept without a bath and a change of clothes.
Anne miraculously woke up. Jack's whispering voice managed to pull her out of dreamland. "I want to take a shower!!!" she screamed loudly.
