"I will do anything to make it up to you."
"You will have to take me to the kiss!"
"..."
"Uhmm… kiss me to the date… wait, kiss… take me! You have to take me on a date!" Janet felt so nervous that her mind lagged.
"As I said, I will do anything."
"So this is a dream after all?!" Janet raised her brows.
"What makes you think that?"
"The school… fire… sky… what was all that?"
"I thought you were never going to ask that."
Rudy pressed his finger on Janet's forehead and shared all the information about his powers and harem.
"Yeah, this is a dream." Janet nodded twice. "It's too unreal to be real!"
"Relax. I know it's a lot to take in, but everything I showed you is the truth."
"I refuse to believe that you turned into a playboy!"
"I wouldn't call myself a playboy. After all, a playboy is someone who plays with girls for pleasure and then gets rid of them after he is done. I don't do that. I keep them close and never ignore them."
"You don't take pleasure from playing with girls?" Janet asked with a judging look on her face.
"I do. But that goes both ways. The girls also get pleasure. I will love you more than you will ever love me."
"Isn't that just a fake commitment boys make to seduce the girl?"
"That's actually true. But again, I am not one of those assholes. And I always fulfill my commitments. I can make the impossible possible with my powers, so nothing is out of my reach."
"I still…wait…" Janet's eyes suddenly widened as she realized something. "What did you just say?"
"Nothing is out of my reach?"
"No, before that."
"I always fulfill my commitments."
"Not that one. The one about being a playboy."
"I am not one of them."
"No! The one about love!"
"I will love you more than you ever will."
"Yeah, that. Was it… like… a figure of speech?" She asked hesitantly, lowering her gaze and finally breaking her long-term eye contact with Rudy.
"No. I was talking about you."
"You… you love me?"
"I guess I do."
"What type of lackluster answer is that?!"
Rudy was already aware that Janet loved him, even in his past life when she had confessed to him despite having a girlfriend. At that time, she didn't ask for an answer to her confession, as it would have been pointless.
However, Rudy could answer her feelings in this life if she gathered her courage and confessed to him. But she never did. She was afraid of rejection.
Naturally, she didn't want to ruin the friendship they had just begun. She first planned to get close to him and make him fall for her before confessing her feelings. But at the same time, she didn't want him to get close to other girls.
Now, She had achieved what she wanted but also what she didn't want. She had made Rudy fall for her, but he had gotten close with other girls too.
Rudy had decided that he would accept Janet's confession. He himself wasn't sure about his feelings for Janet. He knew she would end up in his harem one day, but he didn't want to add her to his harem with half-assed feelings.
Nevertheless, after nearly losing Janet in the explosion, he realized how tense he was to find out whether she was alive. Sure, he could easily find it out by using his abilities, but he was too afraid to do that.
He didn't want the worst to happen, so he let it happen naturally. He was so relieved after learning that she was alive, and he realized he didn't want to lose her.
That he loved her.
"If you are in love with me… then shouldn't you break up with the other girls you are playing with?"
"I love them as well."
"But you can't keep them all, can you?"
"I can."
"You can't love them all at the same time!"
"I can."
"You can't, logically or practically. It's impossible!"
"Didn't I say I can make the impossible possible?"
Janet clenched her teeth as her face flushed red.
"I am talking about sex! You don't have ten dicks, do you?!"
"Oh… so that's what you were talking about. Well… what do I say… you are right. I can't fuck them all at once or at the same time."
"Exactly. So you have to choose only one."
"But I can fuck them one at a time. Even if I chose only one girl, it's not like I would have sex with her 24x7. I will do what I can when I can. Your logic has a point, but it's not valid."
"You don't understand how a girl feels when she sees her lover talking with another girl, let alone flirting or being in a relationship with them. I don't want to ask you to imagine any of your harem members doing the same thing to you.
But I hope you understand what I am trying to say. No one likes sharing what they love. And it's not food or an object that can be replaced bought again. How can I… I can't even imagine how the girls must be feeling when they see you talking with another girl."
Janet was right from her own perspective, and Rudy respected that. That was the most natural reaction for a girl, after all, who would purposely let their lover cheat on them.
"They all are okay with it. I don't selfishly add them to my harem to tell them to fuck off if they don't agree with my terms. It's totally up to them. They have all the freedom."
"What if they just accepted your terms because they didn't want to lose you? That counts as manipulation, you know?"
"I don't blame you if you think that. I know what's true, but you can agree to disagree," Rudy responded with a shrug.
