Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 108

“Are you not planning to get a car?” Randell asked once they went out of Nida’s apartment. They will commute from her apartment to Randell’s unit to get their clothes and other things.

For the sake of their security, they decided to live with Nida, but she insisted that they all stay in her apartment.

Ranz was left at her apartment to rest because he still looked unwell.

Randell went out with her, but he was embarrassed to be walking around while wearing Nida’s clothes and slippers.

“I am not rich like you. Just lend me your car, later.” She bluntly stated as she pushed Randell to make him walk faster. “If you’re embarrassed by the way you look, better walk faster!”

After an hour of commute, they finally reached Randell’s condominium building.

“Why does it feel so empty here?” she asked. She noticed that the place felt empty without the crowds. This place is usually occupied by human-looking wolves.

“Ah, some of the wolves might have left the city in fear of the enemies. Remember, we were attacked by Tikbalangs.”

“If they leave the city, then Daniel won’t be able to protect them.”

“There’s another guardian in some places that takes care of our pack. They probably went there.”

“Ah.”

Nida realized that the world didn’t revolve around them; there were a lot more like them who could take care of supernatural beings.

“Then they should all go there, and never approach me. I’ll definitely send all the supernatural beings away from me!” She said this with determination.

“You can watch TV while I am packing out things.” Randell opened the TV and handed her the remote.

“Okay, but please hurry.”

“Yes, I won’t pack that many.” Randell replied and left the living room.

“Hmm? What’s there to watch? ” Nida schemed through the channels and ended up on the news.

[The mystery of these two scandalous people running around the city in their peculiar attire has now been solved.]

“Hmm? Is that us? And solved? ”

She turned the volume up to hear what the reporter was saying.

[It was just a group of vloggers that pranked people with their peculiar werewolf customs and daring bathroom robes. They even rented some cars and hired some special effects specialists to put together a supernatural-like performance. However, some civilians want to charge them for affecting the traffic and some public utilities that they destroyed. The authorities have already taken them into custody and will charge them with public nuisance.]

“What? What happened to their powers to alter memories? What the fuck with this? ”

Nida immediately took out her phone and called Daniel.

“What’s with the news?”

“Oh? Have you seen it already? ”

“Is this how you clean things?”

“No, but you two run around the city with a lot of security cameras. We can only alter human brains, not technology. You don’t have to worry. It’s been taken care of. You should thank me.”

Too tot tot

Daniel ended the call before she could respond.

“What on earth is he doing, busy?”

She turns off the TV and lays down on the couch instead.

“Hmm? Am I being too harsh on him? Am I still angry at him? ” She asked herself as she rolled on the large couch in Randell’s living room.

“Hmm? Why do they have large couches? Even Daniel’s living room was the same. It’s not like they have large groups visiting their houses.”

She thinks of random things to distract her from thinking about what happened this past week.

“Hmm. But Daniel’s couch was better. ” She laid face down, and her eyes felt heavy.

“Ranz! Oh, I mean, Randell! I’ll be taking a nap! Wake me up when you’re done!” She loudly informed Randell, who was inside his bed room.

“Okay!” Randell responded. He had already packed two suit cases, one for him and the other for Ranz. Although they used to share one body, they have different tastes in clothing styles. That is why they have two sets of different types of clothes based on personality.

“We need to buy new phones, we need to go to the supermarket, and I think medicine as well.”

While packing two large bedding, he thinks about everything they’ll need.

“Are we really going to be fine?” He worries even more the more he thinks about their situation.

Nida will look for a new job.

Randell will continue to work at CTC, whereas Ranz must first regain his health before he can do what he desires.

“I wonder how Nida will get Ranz an identification card.”

Nida promised them that she would give him legal records and identification cards, but she didn’t disclose how she would do it.

All Randell knows is that Nida is the only person the both of them can trust and rely upon.

“But why do I feel like we shouldn’t be doing this?” He kept talking to himself while his hands were busy packing things.

“Nida, I’m done.” He lightly tapped her shoulder to wake her up.

“Hmm? The sun set? ” She sits down and brushes her oily face, which is filled with lines because of lying face down.

“Yes, sorry for taking too long to pack.”

“Hmmn? that many?” Nida was shocked by the load of things Randell packed to live with here. “Are you taking your home to my house?”

“I already removed some unimportant things, but there are still that many.”

“How will we bring that down? Are you planning to go up and down? It’s the fifth floor, you know. ”

“Oh, no! You’re right. I don’t have my strength like before. ” Randell’s shoulder slumped down, and he walked closer to his things to see which ones they could leave behind.

“No, never mind. I’ll use my dust. Is this the use of my afternoon nap? ”

“Sorry.”

“Call, Ranz. Inform him that I’ll be sending this to my living room. Tell him to leave the room so that he won’t be buried by it. ”

“Teleportation? Can’t you just use your spatial spell? ”

“You want the Tikbalang to play with your things?”

“Ah right! I forgot about them. ”

Nida rolled her eyes and dragged her feet to get close to the piles of things Randell wanted to bring to her apartment.

“Did you call him?”

“Ah wait, he is not answering.” Randell is calling the apartment’s phone, which is near the entrance, and Ranz is in the living room sleeping.

“Ah? Hello? Ranz. Leave the living room for a moment; Nida will teleport our things there. Ah wait, Nida, are we teleporting too? ”

“No. It’s just the baggage. We need to bring the car and we need to go to the supermarket. ”

“Ah okay. Leave the living room and we will go to the supermarket before going home. ”

“I have chips in my drawer. You can snack on them.” Nida added.

“Okay.”

Toot, toot, tot

Ranz just curtly responded and ended the call coldly.

“What’s wrong with him?” Nida asked Randell, since she really couldn’t figure out why Ranz had turned taciturn and shy.

“I don’t know either. Maybe he was still sick.”

“Okay, whatever.” Nida just shrugged her shoulder and ordered her dust to teleport all of Ranz and Randell’s things.

“Done. Let’s go to the supermarket. ”

“Okay – ugh! ” Randell bumped into her because she suddenly stopped walking.

“I don’t have money.” Nida smiled awkwardly. She can do a lot of magical things, but purchasing is the only thing she can’t do freely. She is literally broke. CTC hasn’t paid her yet, and now she’s gone AWOL.

“Ah, don’t worry. Ranz has a lot of money.”

“Ranz did? How about you? ”

“Aren’t they sharing their money?” She wonders.

“It’s basically Ranz who earns all of the money. I am also a freeloader. ” He awkwardly laughed at himself.

“Okay?”

Nida didn’t say anything else, and they went straight to the supermarket near Randell’s unit, bringing the car.

“Sir Randell! Ms. Nida!

Nida wasn’t glad to hear their names being called out from the crowd, but she still smiled brightly toward the person who called out to them.

“Ms. Marlyn, of procurement. Right?” She greeted the lady with her professional smile.

“Oh! I’m glad you remember me. It’s so nice to see you too. ”

“You too.”

There was an awkward silence between them, but the two kept their smiling eyes.

“Is he your husband?” Randell asked to break the suffocating silence.

“Ah, not at all. He is from procurement too. This is Jason. Jason, this is Nida and Randell. We decided to shop together for the supplies in our pantry.”

“We are not asking.” Randell and Nida wanted to say something like that, but they couldn’t because they didn’t want to be rude.

“Oh, that’s nice.”

“How about you two? You bought a lot.” Marlyn peeked at their cart that was filled with toiletries and other necessities that screamed that the two were living together. Marlyn felt intrigued with this couple and started to poke her nose into Nida and Randell’s business.

“We are shopping, obviously.” Nida replied with a polite tone, but she couldn’t help but frown.

“Oh, are you dating now?”
