Chapter 189 Messaging (1/2)
Alex who had left Rachel's house brought Lilitth home, and took some equipment and headed to the house he rented near Rachel's place. He chose the best spot to monitor Rachel's place.
...
When Alex got to the house he rented he set up his equipment in the room on the third floor. Alex's set up was the same set up as Kyle's. After setting up he stood in front of the window and checked on what's happening in Rachel's house using his binoculars.
Obviously, Alex had no way to look through the walls, but all he needed to do now was to look at the people passing by. Alex also noticed that the light on Rachel's room was on, and saw her shadow going back and forth. She seems to be in distress.
Alex decided to send her a message just to make sure.
”Are you doing alright?”
When Alex sent this message he saw that Rachel's shadow was jumping around the room, and she wasn't replying as quickly as he thought. Was she really alright or was there actually something wrong?
While Alex was thinking about what was happening to Rachel, he received a message.
”I'm alright, are you really that worried?”
”Of course I am, you're a very important person to me.” When Alex sent this message to Rachel, he saw Rachel's shadow from her window falling down. Does she always do that when she's in her room?
After she fell she stood up and started punching the air. It was a weird thing to do after receiving that kind of message.
”I'm alright so no need to worry. I'm a pretty sturdy girl if you haven't noticed.” When Alex read this message for some reason he couldn't help but smile. It was a surprising thing, Alex who usually had a stoic expression, every now and then would smile.
He found it very cute when he sees Rachel act all tough.
”Have you eaten already?”
”No, I'm just about to do that. How about you, have you eaten?”
”I had the necessary nutrition.”
”Wow, this is the first time I've seen you message me this much.”
”Am I disturbing you?”
When Alex sent this message, Rachel's continuous messaging stopped. This made Alex ask himself, was he really disturbing her? Alex then saw Rachel turn off the lights in her room.
”No, you're not disturbing me. I was just going down to eat. You really must be worried about me.”
”Like I said I'm always worried about you.”
Alex and Rachel went back and forth with their messaging. Rachel was having so much fun since she hasn't seen Alex be this chatty, even though it's just by messaging. She sent him a picture of what she was eating, and he messaged back that she was eating too little for a growing girl.
Rachel was having too much fun, to get angry at that comment. Instead, she changed the topic.
”What do you think about Oliver's confession?”
