Chapter 838 Waiting For Rebecca
Rudy was tired as he had used a little too much of his power in fighting Pieru, and he had got no rest ever since then. He felt comfortable in the company of Elena and Rebecca and that made him fall asleep on her shoulder.
He wouldn"t have woken up for a few hours if Rebecca hadn"t woken him up, but that was necessary. Even if Rebecca had stayed the night at Elena parent"s house, she would still have to wake Rudy up as she couldn"t leave him in the car.
After teleporting back to his house, Rudy was still asleep, but he was no longer tired. He had gotten an adequate amount of rest to go on for a few days without sleeping.
However, he was surprised when Rebecca asked him to wait for her in his room.
As soon as Rebecca told him that, a sudden thought crossed his mind about what was going to happen, but he shook his head and dismissed it. He couldn"t imagine Rebecca suddenly taking an aggressive turn in their relationship.
He patiently waited for Rebecca in his room for a few minutes, but she didn"t come to his room. So he went downstairs to check if everything was alright and he saw the bathroom light was on.
He activated his super-hearing ability and heard the shower sound.
"Uhh… I don"t want to get false hope…"
He searched for Freya around the house and found her sleeping between two pillows on the couch.
"Seriously, I feel like I am taking care of her more than Lucy is. But Freya is smart, so whenever any of us forget to feed her at her regular time, she would come to me or whoever is present in the house."
A few minutes later, Rebecca went upstairs to Rudy"s room wearing a nightgown. Her body was still wet with water droplets, and she left her scent wherever she walked by.
She made sure to wipe her hair to avoid wetting everything on her way, but didn"t dry them as she didn"t have much time. She had left Rudy in his room for twenty minutes and she didn"t want to make him wait more.
The door to Rudy"s room was creaked open, although it could never be closed or locked since the handle was busted and Rudy didn"t care enough to fix it as he did not need to do that.
Even though the door was open, Rebecca knocked and calmly said, "I am coming in."
It might have been the first time in a while when she knocked on his room rather than barging in.
She opened the door and stepped in to find the room empty.
"Huh..?"
Rebecca glanced around the room to inspect properly, but Rudy wasn"t there.
"Did I make him wait too long that he went somewhere else?!" she panicked.
ReadNovelFull.com "I shouldn"t have taken that long…" she muttered. "But I was getting ready…"
Disappointed and dejected, she held back her tears and prepared to leave the room. She noticed the window was open, so she decided to close it since it was windy outside.
She walked to the window, and she was about to close it when she found Rudy sitting on the roof.
"What… are you doing…?" She asked with mixed expressions on her face.
"You are finally here…" Rudy turned around and smiled at her.
Rebecca stepped out of the window and sat beside Rudy. She looked up at the starry sky and asked, "Are you counting the stars?"
"That would be impossible… even for me…" he chuckled.I think you should take a look at ReadNovelFull.com
The gust of chilly breeze pa.s.sed by that swayed Rebecca"s hair on Rudy"s face. Rebecca tried to fix them, but the wind was too wild. And since she had just gotten out of the bath with a wet body, her body shivered because of the cold breeze.
Rudy placed his hand on Rebecca"s shoulder and pulled her close to him without saying a word.
"Do you remember back in 1989 to 1990, we sometimes used to sit here on the roof and stare at the sky?" he asked.
"Yes. Jessica and I used to wait for a shooting star so we could make a wish."
"Yeah…" He sighed and looked at her. "Why would you do that?"
"Hmm?"
"Why would you make a wish to the shooting star? Did you truly believe it could grant a wish?"
"Umm… I mean… scientifically, the star just ran out of energy and got lost in s.p.a.ce… right?"
"They are just meteorites, comets and dust particles most of the time."
"Okay… so… why are you bringing this up?" she asked with a confused look on her face.
"Answer my question first. Do you truly think that a random object dying in s.p.a.ce can actually fulfil a wish?"
"No…"
"If you wanted your wish to be granted, you would have made the wish to the person sitting next to you."
"..."
"I was there all along, but you always looked up at the sky to look at the shooting star to make a wish, knowing well that it would never grant your wish. Why didn"t you ask me?" he asked in a calm voice.
"I was a kid back then. And not to brag, but my wishes were actually fulfilled."
Rudy squinted his eyes and flicked Rebecca"s forehead with his finger.
"It was me who granted your wishes."
"Is that so…?" Rebecca rubbed her forehead.
"My point is, you always relied on something that wasn"t even relevant, and you never relied on people on whom you should have relied on."
"Is it about Eleanor?"
"No." Rudy pinned her down and got on top of her. "It"s about me. You should have relied on me when I was a kid."
"Could it be that you are just sulking? I enjoyed looking at the shooting star. Nothing else."
"Oh?" Rudy grinned and teased, "So you enjoying watching something dying?"
"You seem to be in a teasing mood today." Rebecca wrapped her arms around Rudy"s neck and seductively said, "Why don"t you take it to the bed?"
