You don't even want to call me godfather

"Jill! What's going on?" Just when both sides were in an awkward situation, Dana popped her head out of Jill's room, saw the two people outside, and shouted, "Sister Anjie, and Koshe? Why is it so lively today?"

"Eh? Miss Jill and Miss Dana, do you know Mr. Koshe?"

Angelina should be the most confused about the current situation. She never thought that the two neighbors downstairs, who worked day and night like her, would know Koshe.

And hearing that they all called Koshei by his name, they must have a good relationship?

"Of course, Koshe is a frequent visitor to our bar," Dana said in response to Angelina's question. "By the way, Koshe, what are you doing here? Are you so hungry that you want to attack Angelina?"

"Who do you think I am, Dana?" Koshe was a little helpless, but the encounter with them was quite unexpected. He said, "Angie and I are friends. She wanted to let Destiny and I taste her cooking skills, that's all."

"Friends?" Dana suddenly revealed a gossipy expression, but she immediately suppressed her restless heart and said, "Ahem, is there a dinner party?"

"Wait, what do you want to do?"

Koshe suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Let's go! Jill, let's go eat!"

Dana ignored Koshe's reaction, patted Jill, who looked inexplicably depressed, and rushed into the house.

Jill stared at Koshe and Angelina with a complicated look for a while before returning to the house.

Ten minutes later, the four of them were on their way to Koshe's home.

Dana took Jill and walked in front of Koshe and Angelina. She volunteered to carry the vegetables Angelina bought in her hands, giving them a private environment.

"Knew it……"

As they walked, Angelina suddenly spoke up.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Koshe's mind was a little distracted. First, he was thinking about whether Destiny would have any stressful reaction after bringing so many people home. Second, he was thinking -

How did Dana and Jill know where his house was?

"Mr. Kocher knows so many people," Angelina said, with her hands behind her back, striding beside Kocher, "and there are so many beauties among them."

"what?"

Koshe was a little confused. He didn't understand what Angelina meant.

"Look, Miss Jill is a mature and steady woman, and she's pretty, while Miss Dana is a strong and reliable elder sister with a likable personality. Even I like chatting with her, and I feel safe," Anjie raised her lips slightly, but it didn't seem like she was smiling. "In comparison, I'm just an ordinary girl, without any advantages."

Koshe was silent. He didn't understand. Such conceited words were not something Angelina would say.

Suddenly, Koshe found that Jill, who was walking in front of them, was looking at them sideways with an unnatural expression. After looking at him for a few seconds, he turned back.

"?"

Koshe was tired. Today, these girls who usually had a good relationship with him seemed to have something abnormal, but he couldn't put his finger on it, and he didn't want to guess the complicated thoughts of women.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Koshei, do you have any dreams? Or, what do you want to do most right now?"

Just as he was daydreaming, Angelina suddenly asked again.

"Eliminate the government, give peace to the party members and citizens, and give an explanation to my deceased father...right?" Koshe responded subconsciously, but then he realized something was wrong. "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"That's not right, Mr. Koshe," Anjie smiled slightly, with a hint of bitterness in her smile, as if she had become a different person. "This is different from your answer when I asked you about your dream before."

“…Is that so?”

Koshe didn't know how to answer. Indeed, before the Godfather passed away, he and Angelina talked about dreams when they were chatting in a cafe.

But now, he can no longer recall what the dream he had talked about was at that time.

Looking at Koshe who was confused for a moment, the light in Angelina's eyes moved slightly, and she held Koshe's hand.

"Well, don't think too much, I'm just asking," Angelina returned to her usual self and said, "The one who needs help more now should be Mr. Koshe's sister, right?"

"Ah? Um..."

Koshe was speechless. At this moment, he felt the piercing gaze again. He looked forward. Jill turned his head again and looked at them scrutinizingly.

Why are these women so weird today?

In the end what happened?

Koshe was confused. For the first time, he felt that these friends were not like them, but he could not find the reason.

Forget it, never mind, just give up and let them be.

It's impossible that one day he'll be chopped by a hatchet?

Koshe thought so, and then he gave up thinking.

Chapter 61: Awakening

Soon, they arrived at Koshe's mansion.

Koshe opened the door and entered the house first, followed by the others.

Angelina was relatively quiet, and after entering the house, she stood there quietly.

"Just put on your shoes and come in," Koshe said when Angelina didn't move, "We have to clean up afterwards anyway."

Compared to Angelina, Dana was like a naughty child. As soon as she entered the house, she put down the plastic bag of vegetables, looked around, and disappeared in a moment.

But Koshe didn't care, as long as Dana didn't go upstairs.

He was quite satisfied with this friend who was careless on weekdays but extremely reliable at critical moments.

Even before Dana's last trip away from Syracuse, she had helped Koshei bust several crime scenes.

Well... although the means were a bit cruel.

"Where is the kitchen?"

Jill sighed helplessly. She was no longer surprised by Dana's behavior, so she just picked up the plastic bag and asked Koshe.

"Go to the right after entering the living room," Koshei hung his coat on the hanger at the door and asked, "Why, do you want to show off your skills too?"

"Well, after all, I've lived alone for a few years, so I still have something to show for it," Jill smiled and said to Angelina beside her, "Let's go, Angelina."

"Huh? Well, okay."

Angelina was obviously not as good as Dana and Jill in getting familiar with the new environment so quickly, so she had to follow Jill obediently towards the kitchen.

Seeing that everyone had found something to do, Koshe took a few deep breaths, relaxed, and then walked upstairs.

Destiny's door was closed. Koshe knocked on the door, pushed it open and walked in.

"I am back."

Koshe said, but his words received no response.

He was beside the bed, looking at her quietly.

Destiny was still lying in bed, on her side, facing the wall, so Koshe couldn't tell whether she was awake or not.

"Who is outside?"

After a long while, Destiny suddenly asked.

"Well... a few friends, don't worry about it."

Koshe noticed from the corner of his eye that the sandwich that he had placed on Destiny's bedside table that morning had disappeared, leaving only an empty plate.

It seems that Destiny still ate well when he was away, but it is not a solution to continue like this. He must think of a way to cheer Destiny up again -

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door. Koshe stood up, walked to the door and opened it a crack.

"Anjie?"

"Um... Miss Jill asked me to ask Mr. Koshe where the soy sauce is," Angelina said hesitantly, "Um... Mr. Koshe... what is he doing?"

Looking at Angelina, Koshe suddenly remembered something.

Come to think of it, he did seem to have thought about letting Angelina and Destiny have a chat. A chat between girls would surely be much more effective than his indifference.

Koshe turned his head to look at Destiny lying on the bed behind him. He suddenly opened the door and came out.

"Eh? Eh?"

Angelina was startled. She took a few steps back uncontrollably and leaned against the wall.

"Anjie..."

"exist!"

Angelina's heart was pounding as she looked at Koshe, who was now only a few centimeters away from her, and she folded her hands in front of her.

"Angie..." Koshei leaned one hand on the wall behind Angelina and whispered, "I want to ask you a favor."

"Please...please say it."

"Can I..." Koshe said, getting closer and closer to Angelina, "Can I talk to my sister?"

"I do!" Angelina shouted out louder than her brain before she could even think about it. But then she realized that what Koshe said was different from what she expected. "...Huh?"

"Thank you so much for agreeing, Anjie."

Seeing Angelina agreed so readily, Koshei felt relieved and thanked her.

So, Angelina, who was about to have a question mark hit her in the face, was pushed into Destiny's room by Koshe without knowing why.

"Boom."

As the door of the room closed, Angelina finally realized what had just happened.

But the situation was obviously too hopeless to turn back now, so she swallowed and turned her gaze to the person lying on the bed.

"Um..." Angelina felt a tension she had never felt before, just like when she was at Godfather Ulysses' bedside. She recalled the name of her sister that Koshe mentioned before, and cautiously asked, "Ms. Destiny?"

"..."

There was no response, and that made Angelina even more nervous.

But after a moment, Destiny sat up.

She sat there in a daze, then simply tidied her messy hair and turned to look at Angelina.

"Are you infected?"

Different from when he was in front of Koshe, Destiny now did not look decadent at all. Instead, he stared at Angelina with a sharp look.

It was like the look a younger sister gives her future sister-in-law.

"um, yes……"

Angelina felt very embarrassed. This kind of scene was probably one of the situations she least wanted to encounter.

"...Ah, that guy from my brother..." Destiny stared at her for a while, then sighed and asked, "Your name is Angelina, right? My brother mentioned you to me."

"Eh? Why would Mr. Kochey..."

Angelina didn't understand. She and Koshei were just friends who had known each other for no more than a month. Why would he mention her to his family?

"Angelina, let me ask you," but Destiny didn't care about Angelina's reaction. She just continued to ask, "What do you think of my brother?"

"Hmm..." Angelina didn't expect that Destiny would ask such a standard fatal question right away, but she could only answer honestly, "Mr. Koshe is a very good person, mature and gentle, always considerate of others, decisive when necessary, and as a... as a godfather, he is also very competent."

"..." Destiny frowned slightly. She seemed dissatisfied with the answer, so she changed the topic and asked, "Do you like him? I mean, do you like Koshe?"

"Eh?" Angelina was stunned by Destiny's straight ball. She didn't realize that the control of the conversation had already been transferred to Destiny. She just blushed and said, "You, you, what are you talking about? I am not talking to Mr. Koshe..."

Looking at Angelina's reaction, Destiny lowered his head and smiled.

Obviously, she got the answer she wanted.

Earlier, she thought that her brother and Angelina had already achieved a happy ending, but later, she found out that there was actually no substantial progress between the two, and they had not even confirmed their relationship.

She knew what her brother was worried about, family matters and identity issues.

She really wanted to tell her brother that these were not really problems at all, and that feelings were not that complicated.

Although she herself has never been exposed to it.
