chapter 12 - "Who said I don't want to?"

The dinner was going Smoothly, and although Linda(Taufik's mother's Name) occasionally teased Taufik about his type of woman, the family dinner was full of smiles all of the time.

Maybe because the age Gap between Jenn and Linda is not that big, they look like a sister (Taufik's mother is 40 or so and Jen was in mid 30 so it's not that far).

after the dinner, the family continued their activity in the living room, they're talking about how Taufik was at school and what he always did, or how Jenn fell for him that fast.

Jenn's only answer was that he was that charming a man and he was that Frank about his feelings, although at first, she did not take it seriously because they were students and teachers.

But the accident this afternoon changed her perspective.

not only that, that one month they were together, she always felt safe and comfy around him, but once again the student and teacher relationship made her think twice about her feelings.

And just like that, they chat about their life the meetings and separations they have been through in their life, and many more until midnight.

Looking at the time Linda said "Okay let's finish it for now, it's time for sleep, we have kids who need to go to school tomorrow, hahaha so let's sleep!! " Said Linda, Laughing a little.

realize when they talk about their life, time is moving very fast.

when you talk about life, the Time is leaving you, but when you run after the Time, without you realizing it the life around you will leave you.

"Uhmm, where should I sleep? " Jenn asks.

"What are you talking about, of course you slept together," Linda said,

"What" x2, Jenn and Taufik said at the same time.

"But mom, isn't it too fast for us? I'm still in high school, remember? " Taufik said, trying to argue with his mom.

"Yes, you are but she's not" Said Linda, pointing toward Jen, ending the argument before it could even begin, and going to her room.

Taufik and Jenn just stared at each other, confused by Linda's absurd reasoning, then Taufik took a deep breath and said " Haaaaah, just forget it, let's Go to sleep, if my mom has made up her mind, no one can change it, so just give up at her absurdity".

"But, it is okay? although we are in a romantic relationship now, isn't it too fast? " Jenn asks again.

feeling a little strange about this family, a son who is so powerful, and a mother who is so carefree.

'Is it okay?' Jen thought.

"It's okay, you can have the bed, and I just can sleep on the floor, so problem solved, right?" Taufik said.

he doesn't mind at all if he has to sleep on the floor, in the first place he is never fully asleep, he still doing it because of habit since he was born as a human.

"If you say so," Jenn said.

Taufik then leads her to his bedroom, gives her the bed, takes one pillow lays out the mat on the floor, and lays down.

Jenn just followed his instructions and then lay down in bed.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Fik, are you sleeping already? " Ask Jenn broke the silence.

"No , what?" -Taufik ask

"Nothing, I just want to ask you something" - Jenn.

"And, what it is?" - Taufik.

"Do you think our relationship will succeed, I mean I like Mother, she was very easy to get along with, and she was so funny, and..... " - Jenn said, pausing a little.

"Haha you call her mother, already, isn't too fast? " - Taufik said, Laughing a little.

"Yeah, like that, she was that easy to get comfortable when you were around her" Jenn replied.

"Yeah, I know, and... ?" Taufik asks her.

"And... I like y_, no, I love you, I'm sure of it, I know your mom approves of our relationship, but do you think society will accept it? What if they don't? Will our relationship end?" Jenn ask.

"Will you? " Ask Taufik, short.

".... No" - Jenn

"So do I, it's not their relationship, but our relationship, what if they don't accept it? Who cares? If they don't accept it, they can come to me, I will cut their soul in half then destroy the half and return the other half to them, so they become idiots, will they still not accept our relationship?, I think not" Taufik said.

sounds like bragging but he tells the truth, with his 'SwordMagic Divine Technique' light form, he can do that.

"Hahahaha, like you can do all of that... You can't? right?.... Right? " Jen asks.

"Hehe, who knows?" Said Taufik, want to be a little mysterious.

"Here we go again, you have to change that side of yourself, at first it was cool but if you said it over and over again, you sound like a weirdo," Jen said with a frown looking at Taufik on the floor.

Hearing that Taufik can't Utter a word.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Fik" Jenn broke the silence again.

"What again, honey? just sleep already!! " Taufik said.

"Umm," Jenn little blushed when he called her 'Honey'.

"Um, if you want, you can sleep with me in the bed! " Said jenn, more blushed.

"You sure? what if I attack you? " Taufik asks.

a little amazed by her invitation.

"... After all you said before, if you want, I don't mind it," Jenn said, hiding her face with a blanket.

'....And who again, that asking if it to fast?, you literary skip the first and middle part then jump to the last part in one go' he thought.

'But who I am? , what can I do?, I have no other option, do I?'

"... Women, you play with the fire here, are you sure, although I'm still in high school, I'm not like that protagonist in some Romcom stories who reject offers from women because of some fucking under Age reasons, are you sure, about this? " Taufik asks her For confirmation.

"... If you don't want to, then forget it!! " Jenn said, a little provocative.

she was in her mid 30 but she had never done it with another man before, although she was beautiful.

her childhood was full of learning about magic and stuff.

and when she was 25 she realized she didn't have any future for being a magician at all.

because of her disabled core, she can't achieve more than the intermediate Realm, So she tells her family about her choice to be a teacher in a normal school and normal Environment.

although many men pursued her after he began her career as a teacher, she Naver had In relationship like she has with Taufik now, so she too was curious about the activity that women and men do.

Hearing that Taufik's pride as a man gets offended "Who said I don't want to? , you better prepare yourself!! " He said climbing to the bed and then lying down on her side. (:v)
