"Do I have to change gender too to get the same treatment?" he added then laughed, at the same time, Devan turned to him and gave him a sharp look.

It's just Leo, indifferent. He didn't care about Devan.

"Geez, it looks like your brain is starting to have problems," Naila muttered, but her voice was still able to reach Leo who was sitting next to her.

Hearing that, Leo stopped his laughter, returned to normalize his expression, cleared his throat slowly, and then resumed eating which had stopped without saying a word.

And that made Naila raise one of her eyebrows because Leo's attitude suddenly changed.

Devan and Anna felt the same way.

"What's wrong with you?" Are you mad at what I said?"

"Not."

"Then why the sudden change?"

"Eat and stop talking," Leo said, even his tone sounded different this time.

Hearing that, Naila glanced at Anna and then shrugged.

They then returned to continue dinner, no more conversation or discussion was heard, only the clinking of spoons against plates as voice actors.

Just as Anna had just finished her meal, a maid came over.

"What is it?" asked Anna first.

"Young master is awake, madam," said the maid.

"You mean Dave?" Anna asked because it felt very strange when she heard her son being called Young Master.

"Yes, madam," replied the maid.

"Alright, tell him to wait for me. I want to take some food for him first," replied Anna.

"Let me do it, madam."

"No need, I want to do it myself," said Anna.

"You go back and keep him company," she added.

"Okay, madam. Then I'll excuse myself," said the maid and then withdrew, leaving from there.

"You guys eat, don't be in a hurry. I'll go upstairs first," said Anna after preparing food for her son.

"Wait!" Said Devan and then stood up from his position.

"I'm done," he added.

The woman just nodded.

Leaving Naila and Leo at the dining table. An awkward atmosphere was created.

"Are you mad at me?" Naila asked repeating her previous sentence.

Leo shook his head and the man's response made Naila even more feeling guilty.

"I'm sorry, I am just kidding."

"I'll forgive you on one condition," Leo said without taking his eyes off the food that only slightly remained on his plate.

"What is it? Tell me."

"Accept me to be your boyfriend," Leo said matter-of-factly.

Cough... Cough... Cough...

Immediately Naila choked on her food.

"If you don't want to, that's fine. I won't forgive you until you die," Leo replied with a look on his face that looked like he was holding back laughter.

Actually since earlier he wanted to reply to Naila's words addressed to him, it's just that the intention to prank the girl suddenly emerged from within him.

And like this now, he was saying things that made little sense.

Hearing that, Naila fell silent.

"Only that? Is there no other way?"

"There is no."

"Only accepting you as a girlfriend right?"

Leo nodded as he reached for the glass of water in front of him.

"OK."

Instantly Leo turned, "You accept me to be your girlfriend?"

"Isn't that the condition you put forward so you can forgive me?"

"I was just joking with you. But since you're taking it seriously so that's it, we..."

"Then forget what I just said," Naila interrupted.

"Hey no, no. I'm serious," Leo said.

Naila frowned, "What exactly do you mean? And what happened to you? Why do you sound wishy-washy like this?"

"Forget it. So now we are lovers right?" Leo asked looking to the side.

Meeting the man's face, Naila suddenly blushed, suddenly felt embarrassed.

"That means I can stay in your room right?"

"You pervert, quickly finish your meal and stop talking nonsense," replied Naila immediately ending her meal.

Seeing that, Leo chuckled. "Alright, Honey."

The man never thought that his fad just now would end by saying those words to Naila.

Even though he and the girl had only met for a few days, he seemed to like her. Either because it has the same nature as him or because he loves her. Let time will answer.

Slowly he must find the answer after a closer relationship with Naila.

***

It was now ten o'clock at night, Devan said goodbye, so did Leo.

Step on the gas to their respective homes.

The air temperature tonight is very hot, in contrast to last night where it rained all over the city of J.

Entering the house, Devan was immediately greeted by Mrs. Seira.

"Where have you been? Why are you coming home now?" Asked the middle-aged woman, rising from her position just after Devan appeared behind the main door.

"I'm busy, Mom."

"Until late at night like this? You never answered the phone or replied to my texts."

"Not only that, today you left early in the morning, I passed you on the road."

"Did you go to the office?"

"You didn't do anything else did you?" Seira probed closer to her son.

Devan, who got all kinds of questions like that, just sighed harshly.

"At least let me sit first Ma, then ask," said Devan walked into the living room and lay down on the sofa.

"Answer me, Devan."

"Yes Mom, I'm from work. Today, I am very busy. You can contact Leo if you don't believe me," replied Devan.

Hearing that, Seira couldn't help but believe it.

"Okay. I'm sorry for thinking nonsense."

"You have eaten?" Seira asked again.

"Yes, Mom."

Mrs. Seira nodded. "Ah yes, Anna doesn't work here anymore? I noticed that maid never showed up for the past two days."

"She's quit Mom. She's resigned from the office."

"Really? Then when will Lija come back?"

"Maybe a few more days Mom," replied Devan.

"Hmm, you should have a new maid for a few days, before Lija comes," Seira suggested.

"To keep your house clean and tidy, Devan, also so that Byanca won't be too bothered when I come home," she added.

"Byanca isn't a kid anymore Mom. She can take care of herself."

"Devan, you have to take good care of your future wife, don't let her get tired. I don't want her health to be disturbed. Also, stop coming home so late, Byanca needs more attention from you."

Devan just sighed harshly hearing his mother's words.

"Mind your work after your wedding."

"You just work at home, accompany Byanca," said Mrs. Seira.

"No, I can't."

"There are some things that I can only finish if I go to the office," Devan replied.

"Then, manage your time well.. Don't be out of the house too long," said Seira.
