Chapter 5.1 "Our Beginning Wasn't Great"

A handsome tall man with a slim body, light brown hair, eyes as sharp as a fox, and a small face, toured himself around the university. He is a turn header, and anyone who sees him walks elegantly with his hands inside his pocket would fall for his charm.

The man, tired of receiving intense gazes from people around, found a peaceful place where he can be alone.

A little later, someone approached him.

“Terban!”

Terban Myers, that’s his name. He is the young CEO of Myers Corporation, a high-end cellphone brand that was known to people around the world. Not only he’s good-looking but he is also a promising businessman at his youthful age.

“What are you doing here? Your class will start tomorrow,” the man, Bryan, who was called Terban, said. He is Terban’s cousin on his mother’s side. Bryan is also a professor at Champese University.

He tapped Terban’s shoulder then added, “Are you excited to study here?”

Terban glanced at the hand on his shoulder. A frown appeared between his brows.

“Did you eat cheese balls? Take your hands off me.”

Chuckling, Bryan pulled out his hands and raised them as if surrendering. “White flag.”

As Terban’s cousin, Bryan already knew how to clean freak Terban is. And so, he’s not offended at his cousin’s sharp tongue.

“You are such a clean freak,” Bryan complained. “I apologized, okay? I already wiped my hands with tissue.”

“Even so. That will stain my shirt.”

“Okay. Fine, fine, fine. Suit yourself. Tsk.”

After bickering a few more times, the two walked around together. Bryan toured with his cousin, and Terban tried his best to listen to Bryan’s chatters. He just couldn’t understand how Bryan’s wife can tolerate a noisy guy like him.

“Anyway, I heard that you will originally study in France. What made you change your mind?” Bryan asked Terban.

“Dad is sick. I need to check the company from time to time,” Terban explained. “Also, I have another reason why I chose this place.”

“Wait a minute!” Bryan gasped. He stopped walking and turned to Terban with rounded eyes. Next, a Cheshire grin slipped into his mouth. “Are you still into that childhood girl that you met before?”

Terban rarely smiles. People around him bet that if he does, maybe the end of the world is coming near.

However, at the thought of the girl he was looking for, a bright smile appeared on his thin lips.

Bryan guessed it right. The main reason why Terban studied here even though he had to live under the same roof with strangers is that he wanted to meet again the little girl from his childhood memories.

“What is her name again?” Bryan inquired. “Who knows, I can help you find her quickly.”

“Ryan,” Terban answered. “Her name is Ryan.”

When Terban found out that the name of the woman he had to live with within the boarding house is Ryan, he considered the possibility that she is the woman he was looking for.

However, their surnames are different. Terban was too young before so he could not remember her face too.

‘And our first meeting wasn’t great,’ Terban admitted.

So he’s really hoping that the Ryan he is looking for is not the annoying Ryan he met in the boarding house.

‘Because if she ended up the same girl, then my first love will get ruined like f*ck.’

*********** *****************

Kyle cooked spaghetti for the newcomers in the boarding house.

He is this kind of a person; someone who wanted prioritizes peace above else. If only he’s a woman, he might win as the Ms. Universe who advertises ‘World Peace’.

“Slyv! Can you call Ryan? Tell her that I’m done cooking the spaghetti!” Kim asked Slyvester a favor.

Sylvester, who was gulping while watching Kyle cooks, wiped the saliva from his mouth. Then he answered, “I already knocked on her room. She said she will go down later because she’s still busy cleaning her room.” He pointed to the pasta and asked, “Kyle, can I eat? I am so so hungry.”

“How’s your tooth?” Kyle asked worriedly. He put the pan with sauce in the middle of the table. Slyvester followed him.

“I went to the dentist and received treatment,” Slyvester explained with a crumpled face.

Happy at the news, Kyles tapped Slyvester’s head as if he’s a mom praising her own kid. “Very good.”

“You two look like a mother and son,” Chaylen, who was watching the two, commented with a mocking laugh. He is half-naked, revealing his six-pack abs.

Slyvester and Kyle also have abs, but they should not compare theirs to Chaylen’s because that will put them in a sour mood.

Subconsciously, Kyle groped his tummy, touching his abs as he complained, “Chaylen. There’s a woman in the house. Please wear a shirt.”

“Mom is angry. You’re doomed,” Slyvester chuckled as he tried to sneak some pasta on the table.

Slyvester called Kyle his ‘mom’ due to his personality of being a nagger. Kyle is so kind that he wanted everything to be moderately right. That is maybe the reason why women tend to break up with him, despite having a good look.

‘Dating a super duper nice guy is a little boring,’ the woman thought.

If a kind man like Kyle exists here, then there’s also an evil man named Chaylen.

“Ryan will surely like seeing my body,” Chaylen said in confidence. “Who knows? She might drool,” he added, biting his lower lip before opening the fridge.

Sylvester and Kyle looked at each other. It seems they have the same idea, like: ‘Oh no. We have a bastard in our house.’

“Oh! There’s ice cream!” Chaylen gasped. “Let me have some~”

“Dude, back off,” Slyvester warned. “Those are Vincent’s ice creams. He will get mad if you try to sneak one. I’ll tell you, he knows every single missing ice cream in the fridge.”

Chaylen closed the fridge and looked at the two. “You mean that pork and Vincent? He is the man who sounds like a robot, right?”

“He sounds like a robot,” Kyle said, sighing, “but when he gets mad, he can fight against Volte’s Five. Instead of eating that, come here and eat what I cooked.”

Chaylen glanced at the spaghetti on the table. “Oh? I just noticed that right now. Why did you cook a lot? Whose birthday is it today?”

“No one,” Kyle chuckled. “I cooked this for everyone. Let’s say it’s a welcome party.”

Exactly at the time, Ryan came down from the second floor. Vincent also entered the house with a guitar in his hand.
