Chapter 65 65. Amara
[Ding! Host, you still haven't chosen any option yet, Please choose any one of them quickly, or please reject choosing the options or Ignore these notification.]
Alex was just walking mechanically toward the parking lot. His car has been parked there since yesterday. He just hopes now that it has enough juice remaining that he is able to reach home.
While he was walking, The system voice rang in his mind urging him to choose any one of the options or reject it, Alex didn't want to deal with anything now, He just wanted to go and sleep on his not-so-rigid bed.
Too much shit happened in just two days. He was okay with it as long as he was against the protagonist. He was fine with that but what he saw now in the elevator left a deep impression on his heart. He wanted an answers but he wanted peace more than that.
'Choose 1st and 2nd option.'
But he can't let go of the free benefits in front of him, So he decided to choose the 1st and 2nd option. Anyway, he has a 24 hour time frame to complete the task and even if he fails, He just not going to receive the rewards. He can handle it.
Soon after that he reached the parking lot of the hospital and was found in his car before he got into it. Rita too hopped in the passenger seat without saying much, Both came to an unspoken agreement of not to break the silence.
After that he started the car, Which fortunately had enough battery remaining to take them to his dormitory. He didn't plan on going to Rose's Apartment.
He wanted to just sleep in his own bed for now. That's all he wanted to do. He didn't even have any plans to do anything to Rita tonight. He was very mentally exhausted for to do that.
After some time, They finally reached his dormitory, Then he sneaked into his room taking Rita with him. After all, a woman is not allowed in the boys' dormitory. But he doesn't care about it. Both of them are skilled enough to not get detected by others.

"Sleep anywhere you want, Just don't bother me."
Alex opened the door of his room and then just threw the keys somewhere in the corner of the room. After that, he walked straight towards his bedroom.
Being the boyfriend of a woman who is the number one donor of your college gives you a few privileges. Just like this one, Normally you have to share a room with others, But he not only gets a separate room but he has his bedroom in it.
"Huh!?"
Rita looked confusedly at him. She was still not completely thrown out the idea of him being Death, So she was quite surprised when she found out that he was living in the college dormitory.
But then she realized she was left behind by him. She quickly turned her head left and right in fear before storming towards Alex's bedroom. Anyway, he said to sleep anywhere she wants, which means she can sleep with him as long as she doesn't bother him. It makes perfect sense to her.
"Hey, why are you standing in the middle of the room? Didn't you want to sleep? Well...I came here worrying you won't be able to sleep alone, So you don't have to worry, there is me here now."
As Rita ran into the room, She found that Alex was just standing in the middle of the room. This threw her off guard. She thought Alex was tired, So he should be quick to sleep. This way he would not care about her sleeping in his bed but now that he was not in bed means she can't just sneak into it.
She didn't know how to ask him to let her sleep with him in bed. She can't just say she was afraid of sleeping alone, right? How can a woman say something like that? She will definitely lose respect in his eyes.
So she quickly comes up with an excuse and figures out that Alex is a man, So he should be afraid right now, if she offers companionship, He will definitely agree, That would be a win-win condition for both of them.
"Why are you here? Wait, don't answer that, I don't care. Right now I just want to sleep. Whatever you have to tell me, Just say it after I wake up."
Alex didn't respond to Rita but looked at the figure of a woman sitting in his bed.
The woman was seated on his bed. Right now her posture was rigid and her expression was stunned. She was dressed in a flowing gown of royal purple, a shade fit for a queen.
The dress was embroidered with gold threads that glimmered in the dark bedroom in starlight that slipped through the glass window. Its soft fabric hugged her curves perfectly, accentuating the beauty of her figure. A delicate choker of gold encircled her neck, and a pair of dainty earrings sparkled in her sakura-pink hair.
Her arms were adorned with long gloves of the softest white silk, a contrast to the richness of her dress. The gloves covered her arms to her elbows, accentuating the slenderness of her arms and the gracefulness of her hands.
Her hair, a cascade of sakura petals, flowed down her back like a river of pink, but its beauty was eclipsed by the surprise on her face looking at the man standing in front of her.
Her eyes, like pools of pink rose petals, were wide with amazement, and her lush lashes fanned out as she took in the sight before her.
Her nose, a delicate curve, was slightly flared as she drew in a sharp breath, while her lips, plump and rosy, were parted in awe. Her neck, slender and graceful, rose from her shoulders like a swan's, but it was tense as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.
Her bust, a symphony of sensuality, was like two ripe peaches, their skin smooth and yielding. Her round and full hips, a symbol of strength and sensuality, were still, not swaying with each step she took, but they spoke of the rooted shock she was feeling. Her waist, narrow and defined, still contrasted with her full hips, creating a silhouette that was both feminine and strong, but at the same time, regal and poised.
"Excuse me, Who are you?"
This woman looked at Alex with full of astonishment and surprise, She used to think that only her brother can be the most beautiful man in the world, At least in her eyes that was the case but seeing the man who even put the greek gods to shame, She had doubted herself, There was huge guilt in her heart for thinking someone other than her brother beautiful but she can't deny the fact front of her.
"You broke into my place big sis Amara and you asked me who am I? It's been just 4 years, have you forgotten how I look? Anyway, I am not in the mood to do anything, You have to wait until I wake up."
Normally Alex takes this opportunity and uses it against his sister, Who just shows up out of nowhere to bully and tease her but he does not have anything like that in his mind, The shock he got in the elevator was too much for him.
He needs time to process everything, Although being transmigrated is a way more supernatural thing than a mere ghost by logic but the human brain does not consider logic when it's come to fear, It just does it.
So even if Alex knew that ghosts are nothing to him now who has a system, He was still afraid of it. Let me be clear, He was not afraid of the ghost but the lots of unknowns it brings him.
He didn't know how that ghost got there. How to counter it? Was it bound to that elevator, or could it roam freely? If it roams freely then when will it appear again? There are too many questions. The question that he once started thinking about it, Those will not let him rest all night.
So decided to ignore everything, He going to get his 8 hours of sleep no matter what, No buddy can stop him.
"YOU ARE REALLY ALEX!!!"
Amara jumped from the bed and dashed towards him, She only stopped when her face was just inches away from his.
Then she with her pink pupils started to scan his face, searching for any familiar features of her younger brother.
As time went by the confusion in her eyes was replaced by a warm feeling of joy. Then she was a grown woman who burst out crying, Warm tears streaming down from her eyes, Staining her rosy cheeks.
Amara overcame by immense joy as she stretched her arms and jumped herself toward Alex. She was so happy that she finally got to meet her brother after 4 years.
Only she knew how she spent these 4 years without him by her side, It was a living hell for her, A torture. Every day she hoped to see him again. Lots of times she even hallucinated that he came back and called her sister Amara as he usually does.
But each time she just woke up in bed with a wet face stained by her years, It was her usual routine for the past 4 years. She didn't want to do anything, She wasn't even able to sleep. The only reason she was forcing herself to sleep was because she knew she would get to see him, Even if it was in a dream.
If not for her mother sternly warning her not to go and meet him, She came to him long before but it doesn't matter now, He was here. Her little brother was in front of her.
Look how much he has grown, How beautiful he became, He really is her brother. He was perfect in everything, Even his looks are no exception. She didn't deserve this mighty brother of hers. Compared to him, She as an elder sister is worthless. Still, she had the fortune to be his sister, And right now she can hug her brother in her arms.
"Fuck off, Stay away from me."
As she lunged at him, Alex just swiftly moved aside dodging her skillfully making her hug the empty air, He then without giving any heed about her feelings, He coldly spoke these words before walking towards his bed.
"I really missed you, buddy."
Alex plopped on his bed and groaned comfortably. This bed was not as soft as the one in Rose's apartment neither is it as large as Helen's but this one right now this one is the most comfortable one.
As his body lay on the bed, He closed his eyes, Totally ignoring the new character that just popped up in the story.
"He missed his bed more than he missed me?"
Amara here standing stunned in her place looking behind her, She saw and heard everything. She softly murmured to herself as she looked at him with her tearful eyes.
"That's tough, but don't feel bad he actually was trie- "
"It's really my brother, As cute and loving as always, Of course, he didn't miss. You can only miss people that are not with you, I was always with him in his heart. I am still way behind him as an older sister."
Rita hear and saw everything, She feel pity and bad for Amara, As she can feel the her strong emotions, She wanted comfort her a little, Tell her what happen with them so she will not go to feel that bad because of Alex's attitude but before she complete her sentence, Amara suddenly jumped in surprise and joy then she spoke these unbelievable words with a straight face with a glimmer in her eyes, Making Rita looked at her speechlessly.
"You guys either come and sleep here or get out, Just don't disturb me, Keep your mouth shut."
Alex frowned at hearing the talking of these womens, So he directly gives them the offer they can't refuse. No matter what they choose, he will get what he wants.
If they decide to stay, He will be sharing a bed with two hot chicks, One being a killer and while other being his sister in peace, and If they decided to leave he still going to get peaceful sleep, either way, he gets to sleep.
"...."
Hearing his words, Both women were startled like a deer in the middle of night in front of the car, Two quickly shared a look with each other, The look only a woman can understand before they quickly sneaked onto the bed laying on each side of him.
After that the whole room was submerged into silence but tonight only one person was able to sleep peacefully out of these three, Two were controlling the ragging storm in their heart and mind.
....
"Mother!!! See what that man did to me *Sob"."
Nathan who was still looking like a mummy burst off crying when he saw the mature woman coming hurriedly towards him. The shoe was taken out of his mouth and his jaw was also fixed by their family's main doctor. So now he is able to speak properly.
When he saw his mother finally come to meet him, His eyes turned red, and trails of tears started to run down from his eyes wetting the bandage below his eyes.
He was crying but under the bandages, he had an evil smirk. The fire in his eyes started to burn in his heart as he saw the person who will help him to get him justice coming towards him.
'You wait Alex I will make sure to take everything from you, Before I will end your pathetic life.'
Nathan gritted his teeth in anger as he thought about that man. He was sure it was him who arranged for someone to beat him like this, Even if it was not him. He still blames him for it.
He will make sure to make Alex's life worse than hell, He will take everything from him that he cares for specially those women named Alia and Grace.
But for him to do that, He needs the help of a woman coming toward him, So he prepared himself to give the performance of his life.
