The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 25

"Hmm, why did you ask me to come?"
A woman with a feminine style was Tania. She slowly put her precious tote bag on the table.
The Chann*l brand provoked her move to be careful.
"What's the problem now?"
She realised that the man in front of her would invite her to eat when faced with an unpleasant situation.
"I don't know. I just wanted to do it." Hearing Hendra's statement, the woman narrowed her eyes to observe.
"Your face is so shabby. I think you need treatment. Hehe.. We can do it at my subscription spa. It must be fun."
"You make me lose my appetite." The man put down the fork and spoon, reaching the glass filled with cold water.
"Okay, you can go." Hendra's hand waving provoked the woman's anger in front of him.
"You can't just do it!! Brak!!"
The agile movement of slapping the back of the table simultaneously eliminated the feminine impression.
Oops!! Tania immediately groomed herself. She heaved a deep sigh and re-built her charm.
"I was struggling to slip from the shooting location, and you are playing around me." The tone was pressed with an elongated intonation to stay beautiful.
"Next time, if you want to eat, do it with Surya. Don't ever contact me."
"Ah, She's the same lately. A little boring." Hendra said, starting to stand up.
"Hendra... Wait.. Wait a minute, I'll get rid of your irritation." The woman immediately put on a face mask and walked along with Hendra's footsteps.
He didn't miss to curl her left hand around the man's right hand.
"Now, let's tell me what bothers you."

Bandung
The city that had its own impression on everyone, including Damar.
Since exiting the train station, his eyes sparkled to observe the lively streets' panoramic view, the streets with the activity of people passing by.

The young man was reminiscing his childhood memories while living in this place.
Unlike Aruna, after boarding a modified sedan driven by Damar's nephew, the girl was occasionally annoyed by the small smiles of the two people in front.
They whispered and laughed secretly.
"Finally, the legend of single left its status, yeachh..." Someone shouted, flavored with jokes, and filled the narrow space of the car, making Aruna feel awkward.
"Shut your mouth, or I'll beat you." Damar lost his enjoyment of observing this Flower City.
"Sis, tell me how you can melt this sleeper's heart?" The girl in the front passenger seat turned her head, broadly smiling.
"Ah!?!!" Aruna was surprised.
The girl who had just greeted Aruna had a face similar to the young man driving the car.
Damar clicked his hand on the girl's forehead. She complained of pain, rubbing her forehead.
"They are twins," Damar explained.
On the way, Damar told Aruna that they were going to his childhood home, where he grew up before his parents decided to divorce.
And the two children in front were his nephews. They were from Padang. They deliberately studied in Bandung while guarding, using the family's empty house.
Damar's style was always relaxed and light. It was quite fun to look at. Every now and then, the man raised his index finger, telling them what they were going through.
"That's the Great Mosque of Bandung. Have you ever been there?!"
And other explanations.
***
"Hey, you guys!! Who will tell me about this?" Damar scared his two nephews.
"Siko lah.. kau..." (come here...) Damar asked the two of them to get closer to the unique Vespa motorbike, his personal collection.
Damar showed several strokes on the fender of his Vespa motorbike.

"Yesterday, when we washed it, we just found out, so we...." Not finished Chairil explained...
"You two?! You dare lie to me." Damar cut off his nephew's explanation.
"Hehe..." The two of them laughed and smiled, as if to admit their mistake.
"Sudah kukatakan berkali-kali jan gunokan Vespa uda….blah blah blah..."
(I have told you many times, don't use my Vespa...blah blah blah...) And Damar vaguely grumbled.
An older brother who was annoyed at his younger brother occasionally used the Padang language, making Aruna unable to follow their conversation.
"Stop, stop. Udo nak biar kan perempuan cantik ini tapurangah." (you make this beautiful girl confused."
Damar quickly looked at Aruna. His concentration was distracted.
The two nephews then used the situation to slip away from the young man.

The Afterlife, And How To Survive It (Barely)
Larry Foulery's monotonous, directionless life changed drastically, when he got shot in the face. Reincarnated into a new world, where he has nothing to lose and everything to gain, and with the honor and dedication of an part-time fast food cashier, he is ready to face this adventure. Kinda. The story takes place in the cynical world of Afterlife, where status screens and are considered normal, and the rule of physics cry in a corner, because nobody cares about them, and they are alone and lonely, and their family hasn't called them in years. Anyways, have fun. BTW don't stare too long into the story cover. I get the feeling it stares back. I'm trying to improve my writing, so feel free to bombard me with criticism.

Errant
Amateur fighter Kestril only remembers two things about her mother's disappearance: a locket and the promise she made to keep her brother safe. That promise is all she thinks of when she jumps in front of a car to save her brother. She expects death, but instead wakes up to a looming clock tower, cobblestone streets, and dead soldiers wearing lockets just like her mother's. Kess's locket marks her as one of the Errant- people with control over dimensions and time, and the same people rumored to have captured her brother across the city. When a military group mistakes Kess for their enemy, she swears allegiance at gunpoint, hoping to search for her brother from within. Inside, Kess finds an even darker side of the city bent on killing the Errant-using any means necessary. When the murder of an important Errant soldier throws the city further into civil war, Kess uncovers a plot that could undo everything she's fought for so far. The only problem? Her brother is at the head of it. Trapped between her promise to her mother and her morals, Kess finds little use for her theatrical brawling of the past. She can only hope to find her brother before it's too late. || Update: 4/24/2022 Have decided to rewrite this novel, but will continue to post chapters of this draft, possibly with commentary.
