Momma boy (41)

Rui carefully brushed Aaron's hair, her small hands gentle yet precise. His hair, jet-black and slightly wavy, was a little unruly after the eventful day they'd had. She had always been meticulous when it came to his appearance, and today was no exception.

She first spritzed a fine mist of water on his hair, dampening it just enough to make it more manageable. With each stroke of the brush, she untangled the knots and smoothed out his locks. Rui's nimble fingers worked quickly, parting his hair down the middle.

Once it was smooth and tangle-free, she gathered the hair from both sides and pulled it together at the back of his head. With a deft twist and a few expertly placed hairbands, she fashioned his signature ponytail. It sat comfortably at the nape of his neck, allowing his features to remain unobstructed.

Rui took a step back to admire her work, and a small, satisfied smile played on her lips. Aaron's hair was now neat and tidy, just the way he liked it, and the ponytail added a touch of practical style. She knew that while they navigated the challenges ahead, Aaron's appearance wouldn't be the top priority, but she couldn't help herself. Ensuring her big brother looked his best was a small way to show her love and appreciation.

After spending some time with Rui Aaron started to stretch before looking at Rui and saying.

"I think it's about time I go back"

She looked rather reluctant when those words left his mouth but he heard her voice in his saying [Stay safe]

"I will, don't worry about Rui, I won't do anything stupid," Aaron said with a smile but the look on Rui's face as she heard him say that told him that she didn't believe a word that he said.

[...be safe alright...] Her voice said once again in his mind to which he nodded before smiling.

Rui sighted a bit before touching a button.

Aaron body started to light up as particle seem to have surrounded his body.

He looked at Rui as he was disappearing and just smiled.

It was about time he finish this whole stick-up, he didn't have much time anyway so he had to make it incredibly quickly.

As Aaron body dissapeared he appeared where it seemed to be an alleyway next to a sweet store.

Aaron smile before mentally thanking Rui.

"You are the best for this"Aaron said with a smile before entering the sweet shop and buying himself something to snack on.

Time skip.

As Aaron entered the DGP building while eating some of his sweets, he saw a face that he had never seen before speaking with Neon and Keiwa.

"Recall what he said: he said he has been playing since 1 A.D, "The unknown man said to which Keiwa replied.

"You knew about this"

"He is a viewer of course he does, I feel y'all seem to forget this is a reality show," Aaron said nonchalantly while eating his sweets.

It was nice and sweet just the way he liked them.

"Aaron..Where were you"Keiwa said upon noticing Aaron's presence.

"Let's think...Apparently I did something to piss off that crazy lady and have a huge bounty over my head....jeez Keiwa I wonder why you barely saw me"Aaron said sarcastically to which Keiwa just sweatdropped at that information.

"Anyway, if y'all trynna figure what Ace is then, all I have to say is good luck 'cause I ain't telling nothing...unless Neon admit she owns an only fan," Aaron said ending it all with a very dry chuckle.

"Why would you suggest that"Neon said getting very defensive to which Aaron just smile.

"I am bored"Aaron replied dryly to which Neon seemed to be getting annoyed at the fact that this man loved to annoy her like that.

"Anyway who you and why do you care so much about plot armor san"He said looking at the new man present in the room.

"My name is Ziin," The man said while Keiwa looked confused saying"Who plot Armor-san"

"That MoMA boy Ace, really miss his mommy Milkies so much that he kept going after even as a grown-ass man, anyway whatever you are thinking right now is probably truth, anyway where Ace" Aaron said nonchantly.

"He is asleep"Keiwa added to which Aaron just sight at guess, he couldn't do it now....

Unless...

"Anyone here have a marker" Aaron said to which Neon replied.

"Yes....why do you need it"

"To write on Ace sleeping face"Aaron said nonchalantly.

"And why should I give it to you"Neon said holding her marker a bit away from her.

"I won't say you have an only fan for a week you have my word," Aaron said with a smile on his face and just like that he had a marker in his hands.

"Thank you" He said smiling as he went where Ace was sleeping.

"Neon.."Keiwa said in a voice that sounded disappointed to which Neon just replied.

"I don't want to get called that"
