...Love is like rain. Hugging a barren heart....
...Love is like rain. Giving without asking for anything in return....
...Love is like rain. Clean up my dirty body....
...Love is like rain. Disguising my cries in his arms....
...The rain? That's you to me....
Alfred Russell.
This time Rachel put more food into her box. He must have a great relationship if he wants to help Edward later.
Memorizing the contents of a book with one read is an extraordinary talent. If Query agrees to be his partner support Edward. It was certain that a bright future was in front of him.
"Alira and Edward's wedding is in sight!" he said with passion.
"Who am I married to?" the question from Edward was suddenly behind him.
"E... emmmm.. surely one day someone will marry Edward right? Like a prince who marries a princess." Rachel felt wrong talking.
"Wedding huh?" Edward smiled, then flicked Rachel's forehead."How dare you imagine me getting married."
"It hurts!" Rachel rubbed her forehead.
Edward came closer, then kissed Rachel's forehead."It doesn't hurt anymore, does it?"
"It's not sick." answered Rachel. His Edward was a really sweet boy. How can you be a serial killer?
"Why bring so much food?" tanya Edward observed this child carrying more than usual.
"There was a friend who was in trouble. So it has to be helped." The sentence after sentence that Rachel said made her remember that little boy who was in front of the house yesterday.
"You're happy to be friends with him?" edward asked doubtfully.
Rachel nodded."He's a good man, and smart. Looks loyal, man. If Edward was also friends with her it would be better."
"I'm not interested, but don't spend too much time with him. Come home on time, because your duties are stacking up." The boy suddenly grew cold, walking away from Rachel.
Meanwhile, Rachel returned to concentration to put more food into her lunchbox.
Edward clenched his forehead peeking out from behind the wall. A smile that expands, bringing another child food. This was unacceptable to Edward for some reason.
"The next semester he'll have to transfer to the same school as me." He muttered, not wanting Rachel to have a new friend then ran away from home and left her.
Remember that! This is not jealousy, it is still in the child's stage of selfishness.

Hard to believe as the day before, Flint sent them before going to work. His father who always stayed at the hotel now never even missed dinner and drove them.
"Daddy's daughter! Studying well, huh?" He said tidying up Rachel's appearance, like this adorable child had become part of his family.
"I don't have a sister like her. Rachel is my servant forever." Edward got out of the car, in front of a public elementary school. And sure enough, some children peeked at Edward, seen the elite wearing international-class private school uniforms coupled with white hair and beautiful faces.
Even one of the female teachers splashed into the pool as a result of being fascinated with Flint, because it was less alert when walking.
Rachel simply nodded, walking in not wanting to get any more attention. Completely embarrassed, the child with some teeth that had been dated just lowered his head.
Flint and Edward get back in the car, continuing their journey to where Edward went to school.
With the car window open, Edward stared at the front street of the school. The child was seen again, a child who also dared to directly look into his eyes from afar.
No words were spoken from their lips, only passing by at a glance.

The boy was seen again at lunchtime. Take half the white rice from Query. Then replace it with his side dish.
He looked down at Rachel."The man who was driving you--."
"Oh, his name is Edward and his father is Mr. Flint, he owns the house where I work. My mom used to be a waiter there, leaving me since I was five. Come to think of it you could say the mother ran away, leaving her daughter after a three-month cashbon salary. Pretty lucky I wasn't actually taken to the orphanage. Just need to do homework after school." A brief explanation from Rachel with a mouth full.
"You work? Was it treated badly?" ask the Query again.
Rachel shook her head, her face was smiling."They're getting better at me. I can say I already consider them like family."
"Be...so? Must be fun." That's the only sentence that came out of Query's lips, trying to smile.
That kid? He hates children who never even speak a word. The white-haired boy who looked at him was like a bully.
"Edward is a good man, I'm sure that the cross knows you will be a close friend." That's what Rachel's fantasy is.
Imagine a beautiful future. Quite cliche indeed, Edward became a cool young executive. Having Query as his assistant, an assistant who is always bothered when Edward later dates Alira.
A fun cliche story.
Hup!
Hup!
Rachel patted her own chest, choking after eating while laughing. But a truly beautiful future. His dear Edward did not need to kill himself because of a broken heart. There is no need to be a killer.
"Why laugh?" tanya Query did not understand.
"I'm just imagining the future we're going through." Rachel's reply, made the boy smile and nod.
Be Rachel's best friend, the warmest person. Has his hatred for women stopped? Actually not yet, he quite hates women who pretend, interested only in physical appearance and money. However, she does not hate Rachel and her mother. Can she keep Rachel around him?
While Rachel clenched her forehead, struggling with her own thoughts. He really wanted to know where the main cast was at the moment. Was he supposed to bully Alfred Russel from childhood? The main character who will be difficult to conquer. The main obstacle to Edward's future.

Today he returned to lunch at the flats where Query lived. As usual, it was a simple meal with side dishes that Rachel brought.
The woman started smiling for some reason. Staring towards Rachel and Query who were eating voraciously.
"Query, when you grow up, don't be like your father. Rachel's treatment is good." The words from him held back his smile.
Somehow this comforted him a little when he saw the two children blinking their innocent eyes. Not understanding what Cresia said (adoptive mother Query).
"You guys are so innocent!" Cresia laughed until she held her own stomach.
For a moment he felt a soft wind. Thinking infidelity? He's been fucked up for months. Destroying the life of his son.
"Aunt smile? Stay like this! Do not want to lose, if there is a bad woman to be a wife. Then auntie doesn't have to care. Aunty status is higher than a wife, that is, a mother of Query." Sentence after sentence that makes the smile wider on the lips of the woman who is still depressed.
"Really! I'm the mother of Query. Stay friends with him.yes, baby..." The woman hugged Rachel tightly.
Query was silent, though sometimes delusional. But her mother slowly seemed to improve little by little.
"Two beautiful women..." He muttered in a small voice, staring at Rachel and her mother. Not physical, but physical.
