500: Janet's Scheme

Janet's Scheme

Rudy and Janet were still on their way, but Janet couldn't stop repeatedly shooting her glancing at Rudy.2

Of course, he knew that, but he was acting oblivious to everything.

'What should I do now? All my plans have failed! Why does he not just answer me clearly?! It's not that hard, is it?' said the girl who couldn't even look him in the eyes.

'Should I just tell him about my feelings for him? But what if he rejects me? I will become a laughing stock in the school. And wait… why should I confess to him? I don't like to brag, but I am plenty pretty. If I do just a little touch-up with makeup, I can even be cuter than Alice!

No, no, no. Why do I even think that I love him? I am not that type of girl. And why should I care about his relationships? I am known as a delinquent in school, and that's how I should act!

Instead of confessing to him or knowing his relationship with Alice? I can just make moves on him without caring for anything! At the end of the day, if he can become mine, that's all that matters!'

Thus, Janet embraced her delinquent side to run away from the pressure and anxiousness.

'Alright, Janet! This is a perfect chance to make a move on him!'

"If you go to school with Alice because her house is on the way to school, why don't you go with me too? My house is also in the same way," Janet suggested.

"No, it's not. Your house turns in the opposite direction to the school."

"I was talking about the street!"

"That's true. But I don't know what time you go to school."

"At the same time as everyone else."

"Hmm~" Rudy hummed in amusement and said, "Then I guess we can go to school together if you want to."

"Really?!"

"Sure, why not. It's not a big deal."

"Okay!"

"But you better be there on time 'cause I am not waiting for you to come, okay?"

"Don't worry about it!"

"I better not."

"Okay!" Janet walked a few steps ahead and said, "It's not dark anymore! I will go to sleep! Thank you for walking me home!"

After saying that, Janet rushed ahead.

'This habit of hers is the same,' Rudy chuckled softly. 'She gets excited over small things but also gets depressed about the same. I still don't know what to do with her, to be honest.

Obviously, I don't want her to commit the same mistake as she did in my previous life. We weren't that close in high school, and since everyone was dating, she began to date a delinquent in the school, and that piece of shit ruined her life.

He made pornos of her, blackmailed her, and used her as a slave. Every day she would come to school, she would have a new bruise on her face. Everyone in the school knew what was happening, but no one did anything… including me.

I hate to admit it, but… I didn't care what happened to her. She was nothing but a bully to me. I had even thought, 'Serves you right' when she was suffering.

Of course, I hated her for everything she had done to me. But… I was just using that as an excuse to feel good. I was bullied by all the bullies, and Janet was one of them. Only one of my bullies was getting punished, and I was feeling good.'

SIGH!

'I was pretty pathetic in my past life, not going to lie. But I was weak and wanted to avoid as many things as possible. I tried to focus on school and study. But that's not happening in this life.

Back then, my field of view was limited to one thing, but now it's as vast as the universe.

If I have to say, Janet did live a decent life afterward, but still, I am not letting the same thing happen to her again. I now know her reasons and circumstances. I may not love her, but she was still one of my best friends in my previous life. I cannot… see her cry.

If someone dares to hurt her, I will send them to hell, quite literally. Putting everything aside, what should I do with her? Falling in love with a bully is kind of… like a trope. I personally don't care about it, but I won't add her to my harem unless she makes me fall in love with her.

And as for forgiving her for bullying me… I will tease her a little in return. And…'

Rudy recalled everything Janet had told him today.

"Yeah, I should be grateful to her for telling me that."

After that, Rudy jumped in the air and landed in front of his house in one jump. Of course, he made sure to not make any noise and also landed quietly without making a giant hole on the ground.

"That… was a big jump. Wait, was it actually a jump in the first place? If I jump into the sky, fly the rest of the way and then land, would it still be considered as a jump? I was in the air, so…"

Rudy decided to stop thinking and walked to the door, but it was locked. He took out his keys and unlocked the door in a hurry.

'I could have teleported, but I wanted to confirm something.'

Rudy glanced around the house and scanned it to look for Lucy, and he found her sleeping in Rebecca's room.

"I knew it…" he sighed.

Rudy tried to enter Rebecca's room, but it was locked from the inside, so he stopped.

'Imagine her waking up on me in the room. I will probably trigger her trauma of the night Paul had brought his friends over.'

There was still at least an hour left before Rudy's regular waking time, so he jumped on the couch of the living room and fell asleep.

However, he had no idea what he would wake up to. And that his relationship with a certain someone would change permanently.
