The Odd Billionaire

Traizle

“Just because I said so?” He asked back.

I have to extend my patience when it comes to him.

I did not bother to talk to him. I am tired and sleepy already. It is a good thing that Zarsuelo did not ask me anymore.

I can see Layzen outside of our house, sitting in front of the gate.

“Traizle!” Layzen exclaimed when he saw me. “Some foods were delivered here a while ago.” Layzen added.

“That is my order.” Zarsuelo commented.

Layzen looked at him suspiciously.

“I do not know you,” he answered. “Why are you with a stranger?” Layzen asked me.

“Your sister knows me, I even brought your favourite food.” Zarsuelo answered for me.

“I forgot to tell you about him, but he is not a stranger, okay?” I said as I was trying to explain his existence to Layzen.

“I am Matthew Zarsuelo, let’s be friends. I do not bite. I have many toys in my house.” Zarsuelo told Layzen.

Layzen’s eyes widen at the word “toys”. Well, I was not able to buy him toys too much.

“I can apply as your playmate and you are the boss one. Is it okay?” Zarsuelo added, gaining Layzen’s trust.

“Will you really let me play with your toys?” Layzen asked.

“Of course! My toys can be your toys. I can give you trucks of toys. I have a friend who makes toy-I think we just have to play with my toys.” Zarsuelo said when I elbowed him in his right stomach.

“Let’s get inside.” I said and held Layzen so that we could get inside.

When I opened the door, Lyndon was busy putting the food on the side.

“Layzen, can you call Traizle and ask if she is the one who ordered these foods.” Lyndon told Layzen, not noticing that I was here already.

“You did not tell me you would order this much.” I told Zarsuelo.

Lyndon turned around and saw us. His eyes eventually fall on the oddball Zarsuelo.

“W-why did you bring him here?” Lyndon asked me.

“You know him too?” Layzen asked. “That is why I do not want to sleep early! You are sharing stories I do not know about.” he added, throwing tantrums.

“He insisted on coming here,” I answered Lyndon. “We were not able to tell you about it because it is for adults only. Adult talk is what?” I asked Layzen.

“Adult talk is not suitable for kindergarten.” Layzen answered.

“Hi, I am Matthew Zarsuelo.” Zarsuelo said, introducing himself.

“Lyndon Cerezo, Traizle’s brother.” Lyndon answered. “So, this food is yours?” He added.

“I ordered this for us.” Zarsuelo answered.

I started to prepare our food. The three have already taken their seats. Layzen’s busy with Zarsuelo’s phone full of games. Zarsuelo is talking to Lyndon.

“You should ask her.” Lyndon said.

“You guys should persuade her. I am not enough to persuade her.” Zarsuelo answered.

“Eat now. Layzen, play later.” I told them.

We started eating in silence. It is Sunday and I do not think I can work today. I am already exhausted from dealing with oddball Zarsuelo. I will just work at the convenience store later.

After eating, I excused myself to take a bath. I will deal with Zarsuelo later. I am gonna smack him if I need to.

If I work with him, I have to deal with him every day. Wait, he is the owner, so I do not have to see him every day. If that is the case, I will consider it. I can take care of Layzen and bond with them. I will think of this very carefully.

When I came out of the comfort room, they were clustered on the bed. It seems like they are not shy around each other anymore.

“Kill Lyndon, Matthew.” Layzen suggested.

As I approach the three, Lyndon and Zarsuelo are playing some games on their phones, while Layzen is cheering for Zarsuelo.

I told him, “Zarsuelo, you can go home.”

“We are still playing.” he answered.

“Can we talk?” I asked.

“Do you plan to work for me now?” He asked back.

“I will think about it for now.” I answered.

“Then let’s talk later. Our game match is much more important than that.” Zarsuelo answered.

He is much more hardheaded than Layzen. I laid on the other side of our bed. I wanted to rest.

“Are you gonna sleep?” Layzen asked me as he lay beside me and hugged me.

“Yes, I am tired. Tell him to go out after their game match.” I requested.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Okay, sleep well.” Layzen said, without breaking his hug.

As long as Layzen is with me. I am fine with it. Lyndon is a game addict, so I would not definitely ask him.

I heard Lyndon say, “You got a call.”

“Why is he calling when I am in the battle?” Zarsuelo complained. “What? I am playing.” he added.

It looks like he answered the call.

“You have a meeting two hours from now.” a man answered.

“Okay, I am in a match. Fetch me later, I will send you the address. Do not call me for now-I died! Oh no! I told you not to distract me when I am playing.” Zarsuelo said.

“Sorry Sir, I will end the call now. Win the battle!” The man answered and even cheered for him.

“Of course! Thank you.” Zarsuelo answered.

Hearing the conversation, we can tell that he knows the oddball Zarsuelo’s attitude.

He is really an oddball billionaire.
