She's My Achilles' Heel

Chapter 18

Lisa Manoban

"I think I like this one. What do you think, kid?" Baifern asked me to open the photo she was referring to

It was indeed a great shot. It was a picture of them where Baifern was sitting on a royal chair while Ella was posing next to her with crowns on their heads.

"I like it too, Ms. Baifern. Lisa did a great job." The kid said

"That is because you're a great model too, Ella. Show this to your sister later, I'll send all the soft copies to you later."

Ms. Kim needed to leave because of work related problem. She strictly told me to bring her sister home safe. Am I a bad person?

After transferring all the photos to my flash drive, Baifern invited us to have dinner first at her place which we accepted, Ella was excited to have more time to bond with Baifern.

"We brought Ella with us. Baifern wants us to have dinner at her house."

"Bring her home after that. Can you look after her tonight? I don't think I could go home early."

I smiled like a maniac after reading her reply. She fucking entrusted her sister to me. I feel so entitled.

LaCallistaM
"Noted. I'll bring my sister-in-law home, safe and sound. 😉"

JRJKim
👍🏼

I laughed a little loud at her response. So this is the feeling of liked zone?

LaCallistaM
"I like you, too, Ms. Kim. 😋"

I didn't receive a reply but she seen my chat. She's speechless.

Ella and Tzuyu were in the kitchen with Baifern, Ella volunteered to help her idol to cook the dinner for us. I was reluctant at first but she insisted. I told Baifern to give Ella simple tasks only and the kid can't be exhausted.

Looking at Ella enjoying makes me feel that all my efforts were worth it. The truth was I was reluctant to this idea of mine when I first thought about it. First, I wasn't sure if Ms. Kim will allow Ella, second, I was doubting my skills, if I still have them, lastly, I always have this stupid mindset that everything I do will not be worth it because of my past mistakes in life.

"Thank you for the dinner, Ms. Baifern. Thank you also for making my dream come true."

Baifern walked us to my car. We stayed for couple of minutes to her house after the dinner. Ella was ecstatic throughout our stay at my sister's house.

"You're welcome, kid. I'll try to visit you when I get the chance." She patted the kid's head "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Lisa."

"Lisa was the one who made your dream come true." Tzuyu added

Ella faced me "Thank you so much, Lisa." Then she hugged me "I'll give you the permission to date my sister."

I choked the air I was breathing. What the hell? What did she just say?

My sisters laughed at my reaction.

"L-let's go? It's getting late." I tapped the kid's head for her to let go from the hug

Baifern shot me a last teasing look before going inside her house.

My companions fell asleep on our way back.

"Tzuyu, we're here." I tapped my sister's shoulder

She slowly opened her eyes and looked around "I fell asleep." She sat properly and said "Lis?"
