Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 140
A/N: Stop looking for Daniel. LOL. He will have his own long chapter, and it’s a bit complicated. That is why I am taking my time writing it. Don’t worry, he will appear in no time. Just enjoy seeing Ranz and Randell first.
“Try to mingle with people at your age.” Nida suggested this, which was responded to with the twin scowling faces. Because of how funny they look, Nida just brushed her fingers across Ranz and Randell’s faces at the same time. “Come to think of it, Randell, you are preparing for college before our lives fall into mess. Isn’t it time for you to continue?”
“Nida I am twenty-eight! Why would I go to college?” Randell’s tears stopped and felt odder from the way Nida spoke to him.
“Nope. That was Ranz’s age.” Nida sternly pointed out. “You’re time has stopped, Randell. You have to think this over. What did you really want to do? I know that leading the pack is out of the picture. Right?”
“My age? What do I want? I thought so.” Randell furrowed his brows while he rubbed the back of his neck.
“You thought what?” Nida asked while lifting Randell’s face again. “Don’t go emo, thinking you are not really meant to be living and it was only Ranz who owns your place as Randell. Because you’re not. The two of you have two separate identities now.” Nida hit the spot where it hurts. At the same time, Randell was amazed at how Nida knew what he was thinking.
“Don’t give me such dramas.” Nia continued. She can’t believe that the twins are dwelling on the emotional problem regarding which identity belongs to whom. “Stop thinking bullshit and enjoy the new separate bodies you both have.”
Ranz was also stunned by how Nida knew about their trouble. Ranz looked at Nida and felt blessed to have fallen for a girl like her.
“Then should I go to college?” Randell asked while pulling on the coat of Nida.
Nida replied, “Yup.”
“But I don’t know what I want.”
“Then find it out. You can’t actually know if you stuck yourself in the office doing tasks you were forced to do because you are employed. Quit and start anew.”
Randell nodded and shifted his gaze to his side, where Ranz was.
Ranz is still eating his dinner while watching their dramas.
“Is it fine, Ranz?” Randell asked.
“Why did you question me? That’s your life.” Ranz asked back, with food in his mouth.
“You worked hard to get into your position in CTC, and I am going to waste it.” Randell explained as he still remembered what Ranz said and did for him. Ranz worked hard to rebuild the pack, which gave him security. Ranz got into university and secured a job that gave him financial stability, got him some connections, and worked hard to get his position at CTC. And thinking of quitting would be a waste of Ranz’s nearly a decade of hard work.
“Waste? Asshole, don’t think like that. It was my opinion that achieving those would make our lives better. It was just my opinion, so don’t worry if you want to do something else.” Ranz felt guilty for not asking Randell what Randell really wanted to do. He became a safety officer because it was something Ranz wanted and enjoyed doing. Ranz never thought that they would have different wishes.
“Is it really fine?” Randell asked again.
“It is fine.” Ranz slapped the back of Randell hard enough that it made Randell unintentionally land his face on Nida’s tummy.
“Sorry about that!” Randell shouted while turning red again.
“Ranz!” Nida called out to Ranz loudly and gave him a deathly glare. Ranz just made a peace sign and took the last bite of his meal.
….
….
….
“Good morning!” Nida had a refreshing morning and went out of her bedroom already dressed in her working clothes.
“Good morning!” Randell and Ranz replied with enthusiasm.
It was still early, but the two young men were also wearing their office clothes under their aprons.
“You both look good.” Nida gives them two thumbs up.
This morning is brighter than any day as it is the day of the twins’ beginning.
It is a beginning for Ranz to start his first day at the same company with Nida, while Randell is going to CTC now to submit his resignation letter. While ending something is also a beginning for him,
The three were glowing with their good mood, but there was one person inside the kitchen, sitting on the dining table with the dark atmosphere around him, who had the most tired and gloomiest face.
“Good morning, Sir Robert.” Nida greeted her senior, but Robert looked at him with his usual tomato-colored face.
“I am sorry, Miss Mildea! I am so ashamed of myself!”
When Robert cried, the twins avoided looking at him. They chose to focus more on preparing their meal and let Nida handle her own mess.
“It’s okay. It’s not your fault.” Nida awkwardly comforted Robert, because the poor guy didn’t do anything wrong.
Robert is spiritually weak, so that made Nida look up to Robert’s memories and alter them without using much power.
She discovered that Robert has a low tolerance for alcohol and used it to make up a story about how the car crashed and how Robert ended up sleeping in her apartment.
Robert looked up at Nida, really feeling ashamed. In his version of events, Elise gave them wine, and that made Robert get drunk and ended in his car crashing. Thankfully, they didn’t have any injuries, and Nida took Robert home because she didn’t know where he was.
When Robert wakes up, Randell and Ranz were the first people he met, and he was intimidated by their large bodies. He felt more apologetic after disturbing Nida’s morning with the bulky twin.
Robert was wondering what type of relationship the three had because they did not seem to be siblings.
“Let’s eat.” Randell said after placing some plates on the table while Ranz brought the food.
“I will leave! You can have your breakfast!” Robert awkwardly stood up and took his things to leave. He would be more shameless if he troubled them even more. “I am really sorry!”
“No, no, eat here first!” Nida grabbed Robert’s arms to stop him from leaving. Nida was actually the guilty one, which is why she would feel guiltier if Robert just left them without eating.
“No. I am fine.” Robert insisted and tried to pull his arms back, which made Nida trip in his direction and hugged him. Nida’s face landed on his belly, and that made Randell and Ranz glare at him.
Robert is so tall that Randell and Ranz were only on his shoulders while Nida was only as tall as his stomach.
Robert felt a sudden chill and pushed Nida away as he panicked. Ranz caught Nida while Nida felt dizzy from the sudden tossing of her, but she got back to standing and pulled the chair to insist Robert to eat with them.
“Sir, please eat with us.”
Nida made puppy eyes, but that was not the reason Robert said yes. Randell and Ranz were looking at him with a threat that made him nervously sit back in the chair.
Nida was happily seated as well, and she put food on Robert’s plate. “Let’s just forget what happened last night, sir. We are going to work together, so let’s have a nice time together. ”
“Okay, if that’s what you want.” Robert was responding stiflingly.
Nida was satisfied with Robert’s reply, then she looked at the two daddy-like handsome guys on their apron who were not taking a seat to eat breakfast.
“What’s wrong?” Nida asked.
“We don’t have enough chairs.” Ranz said, pointing at the only available chair. Nida lived alone and rarely had visitors. That is why she only had exactly three chairs. She doesn’t even have a stool for reserve.
Robert was about to suggest leaving again, but Randell made a funny suggestion that made Nida burst into laughter.
“Should we seat side by side?”
“Haha! Randell! Do you think your body will fit into one chair?” Nida said this while holding her tummy, imagining how the two would look sitting next to each other.
Two men squeezing together will be a funny and rare sight.
Ranz joined in laughing at Randell’s funny suggestion and added another funny idea to tease him more. “How about you sit on my lap, Randell?”
“Oh! That’s a good idea! ” Nida suddenly clapped his hand and looked at Ranz with a grin.
“Hey, it was a joke!” Ranz pretended to hit Nida with the spatula while Randell turned to tease Ranz and tried to hug him.
“Come here, Ranz, you’ll be my chair.” Randell jokingly attempts to push Ranz onto the chair to sit on. Ranz pushed him back, they ended up having a little arm wristling.
“Haha! Come here! Ranz.” Nida waved her hand, pointing to her chair, and that made Ranz and Randell’s bickering stop.
“I’ll sit in your lap.”
