Kale walked her to her house and even took her number. He won't court the girl. He is just being nice. The girl is innocent. Also, he thinks that her mother is too much. After she said that she had to lock the door and put a chair under the doorknob every night or every time that her step-mother has someone over, makes him worried.

Kale said that she can go to the villa and ask Nate or Kelsie. Tomorrow, Kale will introduce her to them. The poor girl is so scared of her step-mother. He also told her honestly that they didn't like the pie. Kelsie has to destroy it.

The pie is really awful. Kelsie said that it wasn't a good one. She said that she'll make a pie. So, it won't be traumatic for them to ever eat pie again.

He reached his room. He jumped into a hot shower. Then, finally, dry her hair off and went to bed naked. He reached for his phone and he texted her.

Kale lay down to his bed and pulled the duvet to cover his lower part.

Kale: You better lock your room and put earplugs on.

Christina: Kale?

Kale: The one and only mighty Kale, neighbor.

Christina: Hahaha.

Kale: I was in trauma at this moment. I don't want to go to my balcony. I might see her.

Christina: I am trying hard not to make a very loud laugh at this moment, Kale.

Kale: It's embarrassing to see your step-mother naked on the balcony holding a remote control for her vibrator!

Christina: She wasn't embarrassed about masturbating in front of me.

Kale: Wtf! Is she a porn star?

Christina: No. She's just horny as hell.

Kale: You need to sleep, young lady. So, you'll get tall.

Christina: Do you mean that I am short?

Kale: I didn't say that.

Christina: How's the pie?

Kale: Who made it?

Christina: Step-mom made it.

Kale: It's traumatic, Christina.

Christina: You have a lot of traumatic things going on with you, huh?

Kale: It started when your mom is spying on us while we are bathing on the beach.

Christina: Yeah, she also mentioned the guy with you. I…

Kale: What? There is something you have to say.

Christina: It's full of dirty description.

Kale: Like.

Christina: I don't want to say it!

Kale: Hmm, sounds interesting.

Christina didn't reply. Kale called her. It's ringing and then she answered it.

"Tell me. I'm super interested.

"

"Kale, you are embarrassing.

"

Kale laughed.

"What? I'm embarrassing you? It's just the two of us.

"

"Do you really want to know how dirty it was?

"

"Yeah.

"

"And you like my step-mom?

"

"No.

"

"And why do you want to know what she said?

"

"Well, I~~just want to know.

"

"Are you serious, right now?

"

"Yes, I am, always serious. Now tell me.

"

"Geez! I am not comfortable with this.

" She complained.

Kale laughed.

"I'm just joking.

"

"Why aren't you sleeping?

"

"I couldn't sleep because of the trauma.

" Kale exhaled.

"Your step-mother is very exceptional?

"

"And you like her? Just tell if you like her. She's been bored being in the house since dad is attending a lot of business trips.

"

"No.

" Kale bit his lip.

"I don't like your stepmother.

"

"Hmm.

"

"Are you busy tomorrow?

"

"Not, really.

"

"Come here tomorrow. Kelsie, Nate's wife is good at cooking.

"

"I'm not bothering or something?

"

"No. Nate had to leave. So, I and Kelsie will do some cooking. You should come.

"

"Alright.

"

"By the way, who's cooking for you?

"

"I cook.

" She said.

"We have a maid but I don't think the food she cooked is my liking.

"

"Cook for me.

"

"No, I don't want you to get traumatized by a single dish.

"

Kale laughed.

"Okay, I won't.

"

"Wait, my stepmother is knocking.

" She said. A rustling sound can be heard and the opening of a door.

"Yes?

"

"I heard you laughing. What are you laughing about?

"

"I was watching a film on my phone.

" She said.

"Oh, okay. Let's go downstairs to drink.

"

"I'm fine.

"

"I need to know about that handsome guy that brought you back to the house safely.

"

"He's not really interested…

"

"You have to tell me what he said.

"

Kale creased his brows. He didn't want to snoop but he wanted to know what she would say. So, he's practically snooping.

"I don't really drink.

"

"But if that man, what's his name?

"

"Kale,

"

"If Kale invited you to go with him to their villa, you should go.

"

"What? Why?

"

"I know that you are a virgin and never had experience with boys. You should grab the opportunity. Besides, he seemed to have that big eggplant~~

"

"Geez, stop mentioning that!

"

"Your dad and I don't love each other so we agreed to this setup. You are a good daughter… I am just teaching you so you won't live alone.

"

"I'm sorry but I am not entirely interested.

"

"No, you have to know everything.

"

Then, it seemed like Christina hung up when she realized that he's still there listening. Kale laughed and shook his head. Different types of the mother. Anyway, Kale needed to sleep. His phone chimes and checked it.

Christina: You heard everything?

Kale tapped and replied fast.

Kale: Yes, I did. I will help you, don't worry. *wink*

Christina: Embarrassing!

Kale: I will teach you things. Don't learn it from your mother.

Christina: What things?

Kale is already thinking lewd things with her. But he didn't want to elaborate it.

Kale: Martial arts, self-defense. I will teach Kelsie tomorrow. You should come.

Christina: Sounds interesting.

Kale: Are you going to sleep now?

Christina: Yeah, I just ditch my step-mom when she started saying how to dance.

Kale: Hahaha, I am sure that it's a different dancing. Probably dancing on the bed?

Christina: Hahaha, don't make me start.

Christina: Good night, Kale

Kale: Good night.

<><><><>

Kale went downstairs and Kelsie is already cooking breakfast. Nate is in the open gym outside doing some push-ups and other workouts.

"Looking good huh!

" Kale smacked his butt. Nate frowned and he continues doing push-ups.

"I can't look fat. Even though my wife is feeding me a lot. I can't slack off!

"

"Why? To flaunt it to other girls?

"

"No.

" Nate stood and started doing squats.

"I have to always look good for my wife.

"

"Your wife won't find any other man. Don't worry about that.

"

Nate laughed.

"Well, my exes did. However, it's not because of that. My wife is feeding me a lot of delicious food. And who am I to say no?

"

"Yeah, I think I will get fat here too.

"

"She's always experimenting with lots of dishes.

" Nate groaned and started punching the punching bag and kicking it.

"Hmm, she does. By the way, I invite, Christina.

"

"Who?

"

"Christina,

" I said.

"Our neighbor?

"

"The one who peeks on us?

"

"No. That's the step-mother.

" Kale moved close to her.

"Christina is the daughter of Martin Gomez. From five years ago.

"

Nate stopped and frowned at him.

"Then, why are you inviting her over?

"

"Well, I am just being nice. And she's alone and doesn't have friends around.

"

"Oh, wow. How about her father?

"

"He got plastic surgery and his name is different now.

"

"Then, that Christina is different too?

"

"No.

" He shook his head.

"She's the same.

"

"Hmm. Well, as long as my wife is safe, why not? But you have to be cautious.

"

"What can the poor girl possibly do? They sign a contract to our Empire.

"

"I'm just saying to be cautious. My wife needs protection.

"

Kale understood that Nate is overprotective towards his wife. So, he nodded at him and holds the punching bag.

"Of course, that's why I am here since Fanny is on her mission.

"

Nate stopped punching and exhaled.

"There are lots of things that I need to investigate in the branch in here.

"

"And you are doing fine.

" Kale looked up at the Balcony where the step-mother came out naked, and she looked at them and waved at them.

"Don't look.

" Kale immediately looked away.

"How many times you caught her like that?

" Nate hissed. She saw the woman from the glass wall of his villa.

"Three times now.

" Kale rubbed his shoulder.

Nate laughed and smacked him.

"You should remove that shirt. I'll spray your body to have an alternative sweat while you start lifting weights. Do it in slow-motion.

"

Kale rolled his eyes.

"What's with the slow-motion?

" he hissed.

"It's what movies do.

" He winked.

"I'm going in. You should start working out.

"

Kale exhaled and followed him inside. His phone chimes and Christina gave him a laughing emoji.

Kale tapped his phone to call her. On the other side, Christina is laughing so hard.

"Right, just laugh. It's part of your exercise.

" Kale said monotonously as he went to the kitchen.

"You should see the look on your face. I'll send it to you!

"

"How did you film that?

" Kale asked.

"I was opening up my window for fresh air and it just happened. Damn, it's hilarious.

" Christina continued laughing.

Kale chuckled. Finding her laugh adorable.

Kelsie sneaked her phone and video Kale's while he's talking to the girl on the other line.
