Oh dear! Red just asked me to take her home. Does she consider me her boyfriend now? Come on, man! Has she fallen in love with me now, even though I only saved her life once? Oh god! When I arrive at her home, I’m going to meet her parents. D*mn, this is happening way sooner than I thought.

What if her parents expect something extravagant from me, like a wedding that costs more than two hundred thousand? What am I going to do? Break up with her? Or work hard to save every penny? Ugh! What a headache!

“Is everything okay?” Red asked, wondering why Shane hadn’t responded.

“Oh… I-I don’t mind, of course, but I’m afraid I’m not ready

“Ready? Why do you have to be ready?” Red was puzzled because she didn’t understand why Shane had to be ready to take her home.

“Um. Well, I’m going to meet your parents, but I haven’t bought anything for them, I can’t visit them empty-handed, can I? Haha…” Shane scratched his head in embarrassment.

Nevertheless, Red looked down with a heartbroken expression on her face. “My parents passed away a long time ago.”

“W-What?” It was then that Shane realized that he was worrying too much about things that would never even happen.

“My dad was a miner who died in an accident 6 years ago. It broke my mom’s heart and devastated her so much that she never recovered. Three years later, she also passed away.”

“Oops! I’m so sorry. I…” Shane apologized.

“It’s alright. It’s all in the past anyway.” Red smiled, trying to shake off her heart-wrenching past, although her sympathetic looks might make her appear vulnerable.

“Alright, let me inform Manuel, and I’ll get you home.”

“Sure, thanks!”

“Don’t worry about it. I’m more than happy to do that.” Shane then reached for his phone and called Emmanuel.

After receiving Terence’s approval, Emmanuel sighed and said, “Alright, you’re free to go to wherever you’re heading, but can you move faster? Even a snail can outrun you.”
