Capítulo 15: Life is beautiful
Her moan excited him a lot, making it difficult for him to stop himself from kissing her nape once again, then again and again, causing her to let out more moans which excited him even more.
Gathering his courage, he moved from her neck and planted a kiss on her soft cheek.
Suddenly, Shweta trembled—her eyes, which had closed a while ago—snapped open. With a panicked expression, she broke the hug and moved away from him, causing Siddharth to frown in displeasure and nervousness.
"Are you alright?" He asked while looking at her information panel and only after he saw that there was no negative change in her status, he relaxed.
Not daring to look him in the eyes, Shweta turned her back toward him, her body still trembling, "Y-Yes. I'm fine. W-We should have breakfast. I-It's getting l-late."
Hearing this, Siddharth sighed, disappointed. He very much wanted to continue what he was doing just now but, he also didn't want to push her too much since she was already struggling with her emotions.
'This much progress is more than enough for a day, I think.' He thought and nodded, "Alright. I'll be outside."
Saying this, he walked out of the kitchen, causing Shweta to heave a deep breath. Then she remembered how intimate she was with him a moment ago, which made her face blush red.
'Is it really right?' She thought, sighing. She knew it wasn't since she was still married. 'Since he doesn't want me or care about whether I live or die, I won't think about him or what the society will say. I'll… divorce him.' Her heart trembled as she thought this.
When she found out her husband was cheating on her, she was very angry and had thought about divorcing him but would always curb the thought, fearing what their kids, relatives and society will say. But now… she didn't seem to care about it that much and this surprised her a lot.
Slap!
She lightly slapped her cheeks and nodded to herself, "Yes. This is for the best. I also have a life and it's foolish to live miserably when I can enjoy and live freely."
Phew!
She exhaled a deep breath and suddenly felt her lighter as though a heavy load was lifted from her heart, causing her mood to brighten slightly.
She then reheated the food, took it out and served two plates—one for her and one for Siddharth, whose eyes shone when he smelled the delicious aroma of her home-cooked food.
Seeing his expression, a smile appeared on Shweta's face. She gestured to the food and said, "Please dig in."
"With pleasure." Siddharth nodded and started eating, savouring each bite. Since he didn't know how to cook food himself, he always ate packeted food which only need to be heated and obviously, it was nowhere delicious to Shweta's food.
"If you don't mind, you can have breakfast and lunch here since my husb—Mr. Rai go out around 8 A.M. and return in the evening." She said, a slight crimson glow covering her face.
"Really? You won't mind?" Siddharth asked, smiling. And when he saw her information panel, his smile widened even more because her affinity and intimacy had increased by another 10 points.
[Affinity: 90/100]
[Intimacy: 60/100]
"I won't. W-We are friends, after all." She murmured, taking a bite from the food.
Seeing her act so shy, Siddharth smiled and nodded, "That's right. Then, I'll come here for lunch too."
Shweta nodded, "Okay."
They then silently finished their meal.
"It was delicious." He exclaimed after finishing.
"I'm glad you liked it." Shweta smiled, happy to hear him praise her cooking.
They then washed their hands and drank some water to clean their mouths. Shweta then escorted him to the door.
When they reached the door, Siddharth suddenly halted in his tracks, turned around, and grabbed her hand before pulling her in his embrace and planted a quick kiss on her soft lips.
He then opened the door and walked out, saying, "I'll meet you in a few hours then, bye."
Shweta stood there like a wooden statue. Then her hand slowly lifted and touched her lips. "H-He kissed me…" she muttered before her beautiful face blushed red and her breathing grew ragged.
…
After coming out of her apartment, Siddharth looked around to see if anyone saw him. Fortunately, there was no one around. So, he opened his apartment's door and went in.
He looked at the messy scenery in front of him and suddenly he wasn't so sure if he wanted to clean it all up because doing that would take a lot of time and energy and his years of lazing around had made him too lazy to avoid doing something like this.
However, it was as if the system didn't like his hesitation and a mission panel flashed in front of him.
[Mission: Clean your apartment and make it look presentable.]
[Reward: 10 kg weight loss. +2 agility, +2 stamina.]
"No punishment and such tempting reward…" His eyes shone when he saw the weight loss reward.
Right now, he weighed over 100 kg even after the morning's agility addition had helped him lose a bit of fat and he didn't like it at all. Especially now, since he had a female friend who would soon be his lover.
"Let's get in the shape, shall we?" He rubbed his belly and chuckled, "Sorry my friend. You need to go away now. I can't let you become the hinderance in me picking up any girl."
Immediately, he started cleaning the room. By the time he finished, over four hours had passed.
Phew!
Exhaling while wiping his sweat, he looked around in satisfaction to see the sparkling floor and neatly arranged things.
"Now, it looks like a place worth living in." He chuckled and mused, 'I can even invite her over her sometimes without worrying now.'
He then looked at the time to see it was already around 3 P.M. Considering they had breakfast around 11 A.M., he should go over for lunch now.
Therefore, he quickly took the two large bags of trash, went down the building, and dumped them in the trash bins.
When he returned to his apartment, panting and sweating, the system's notification flashed in front of him, making him smile.
[Congratulations! You've completed the mission (Clean your apartment and make it look presentable.)]
[The reward will be granted in 3…2…1. The reward has been granted.]
Siddharth felt some peculiar energy envelop his body, which made him feel as though he was floating.
A moment later, the sensation disappeared and when he looked down at his belly, he saw less than half of what it was before and some of the uncomfortable fat around his joints, chest and neck had also disappeared.
'I seem to have lost over 15 kgs.' Thought Siddharth. He knew the other 5 kg must be because of the fresh addition of 2 points of agility, since it makes him lose fat too.
Following which, he moved his hands in circles, jumped on his feet and did some other exercises such as push ups and didn't feel nearly as uncomfortable as he felt in the morning and thanks to another 2 points of stamina, he wasn't feeling exhausted.
"Amazing…" He muttered, feeling slightly emotionally overwhelmed. It was only normal since his life had almost completely changed with a day. Just last evening he was complaining and feeling depressed because of his shitty life and now, that very life seemed very beautiful to him.
After a while, he took a deep breath, controlling his emotions, and went into the bathroom. As he stood in front of the mirror after taking his clothes off, he felt as if he was looking at someone else.
Though he still wasn't fit or looked any more handsome, he couldn't be called fat or ugly now. At most, he was slightly chubby and average looking, a significant improvement.
Suddenly, he frowned. 'Shweta would surely notice this change, right?'
