The Devil's Sweetheart

Jennie was not bothered when the person in front of her was banging his new manager or uncle William. But when she thought that he would snatch Lisa away from her, she immediately went to protective mode. Although Lisa was confused by the sudden shift, he did not ask her.

"Hello, Uncle Pumpkin." Jennie greeted him with a smile. Although she was standing in front of Lisa, she couldn't cover him entirely. Damn, his height.

"Morning, Jennie dear." Uncle Pumpkin glanced at the person standing behind Jennie and he instantly recognized him. Who doesn't know him? But he was stunned to see him along with Jennie. Although he considers himself as a celebrity for being famous with the balloon condoms, he would feel giddy whenever he sees a celebrity just like now. "Is it Lisa Manoban? What is your relationship with him?

"He is-"

"Aren't you introducing him to me?" Uncle pumpkin interrupted urgently.

Left with no choice, she cursed and glanced at Lisa. "Umm...Lisa, he is my neighbor, uncle-"

"Jack Condom." Uncle Pumpkin cut her words in the middle and offered a handshake while he added. "Closed ones call me Uncle Pumpkin and my employees call me, Mr. Condom. Since you appear to be close to Jennie, you can call me Uncle Pumpkin."

Lisa parted his lips in shock hearing his name but soon he composed himself and lent a handshake. "Pleased to meet you, Mr. Con- Uncle Pumpkin." He has never heard someone is willingly asking to call with that bizarre name. Jurassic Park and Lord Voldemort are better compared to his names.

"Do you want to visit my home?" He asked in anticipation.

"Maybe some other time, Uncle Pumpkin," Jenniespoke up. "He has to leave for office for an urgent meeting. I will bring him some other day."

"Alright." He winked at Lisa taking him by surprise.

Jennie wanted to strangle Uncle Pumpkin for eyeing her property but she controlled the rage since he makes delicious food for her. Bidding a goodbye, Jennie tried to drag Lisa away but Uncle Pumpkin cut her off and pulled Lisa while he whispered into his ears. "Ginger, garlic, blueberry blast, banana burst, grapey gush, pineapple, I have all the flavors that you need."

"What are they?" Lisa asked. Confusion crossed his features. He did not understand the reason he started talking about fruits and spices out of blue.

"Those are the condom flavors which I sell in our company. You need them to spice up your life. We have other types of-"

"Thanks. But no thanks." Lisa suspended his thoughts. What kind of absurd thing he is gloating about? He would never use that kind of sick things even in the future.

"I have to leave for the office." Having said that, Lisa left along with wine Jennie.

Watching the retiring figure, Uncle pumpkin scoffed. "What is so good about him that he has been named as the most handsome man? He doesn't even have a belly that would shake, unlike my new manager. I don't like him at all." Thinking of that person, Uncle Pumpkin did not want to go to the office today and messaged his manager to come to his home for a cup of coffee. Within seconds he got a positive reply. With a triumphant smile, he went inside.

...

"Uncle Pumpkin is a very nice person. Don't judge him by his looks." Jennie started stepping into the car.

"No sweetheart. I don't judge a person by his looks. I was just wondering why on the earth he has such bizarre surname."

Jennie explained about the Condom company he started along with his habits and finally, Lisa had a rough idea about his traits. One thing he understood, he is crazy just like Jennie. No wonder they are neighbors.
