Chapter 44 44. Fall

"No you can't do it, You think you can but trust me you can't."

Alex outright denied her request, It's not time yet. There is still a little more push needed for Alia to fall, Only then he will be able to do what was planned for it.

"No, Please trust me. I can change, Just try to give me a chance."

Alia jumped up in his arms, She looked at him with a face full of determination, She is determined, If her letting him talk to other girls can resolve his anger then she is able to make herself do that, For him, she can control her urge to take control.

"No Alia you ca- "

"I can, Please just give me ONE chance, Tell me what to do and I will do it."

Alex wanted to deny her again but Alia cut him off mid-sentence.

She can't let go of this god given the opportunity, She had to resolve his anger, Then she can do stuff couples do, Like going to the beach or dating in fancy places like people do in movies, The Alex will be harras by the goons, So she will jump to save the day and gain his admiration and affection, Didn't the all the love story go like this?

She wanted to experience all that stupid stuff with him. Before she used to think those things were a waste of time but now, She couldn't wait to go with Alex. As long as he is there then every second is well spent.

"....Are you sure? I might have to hurt you a lot, That might even make you hate me. Did you still want to do it? I will not recommend it, Just end our relationship here and bid farewell on the good terms, I will go back home an-and yo-u to fin- *Sob*."

Alex started to push her further and further towards the edge, A little more push and she will completely fall too deep. That's what he wants. This way she will be kept in check and not go berserk.

So he started, He used his words as weapons and bombarded on Alia. Each word of his leaves deep wounds on her heart. At first, he has given her hope but the next moment, He snatched that away from her.

As he spoke, His voice got heavy like crying. At the last word he choked on his tears and couldn't say any further. A lone tear escaped from his red eyes.

It's like he can't bear to separate from her or see her with another man but he forces himself to end things for their own good.

"No no no, NO!! I just will do anything for you, for the US. So just tell me, "The pain thinking you will leave me is way worse than anything you will throw at me."

Alia is scared when Alex talks about completely ending their relationship, She can't, She will not let that happen.

He is her forbidden, Her love. She can't give up on him. If there will be pain or suffering she has to bear to keep by her side then she is willing, She can go to any extent to not let him get away from her.

So she exclaimed, And demanded to know the thing she had to do. She can't lose him, Not now when she finally knows what love is.

".....Are you sure? Alia you are going to hurt a lot, You might even start to hate me, Now do you still wanna do it? Think very carefully, Alia. If you pass, We will be together but if you can't do it then it will be goodbye."

Alex spoke in a heavy voice, He said very clearly what she will lose and yet didn't say anything about what she had to do to keep him, He still let that thing stay as a mystery.

This is a simple tactic a salesman uses. First say pros and cons, and let your client choose first before saying a price. That way they will most of the time surely buy that thing just because they already decided to buy it.

Alex doing the same here for Alia, If she already decided on following his test then she will follow through to the end and not try to think of alternatives. She will only walk on the path he paved for her and the best thing about this is that She will think she was the one who chose this to do it, Not him as he gave her a "choice".

"No, will you tell me what I have to do?"

Alia didn't even consider what might be his task or think about other options as any businesswoman will do, She just agreed without knowing anything about it.

The worst mistake a businesswoman can make is to agree without knowing the terms and conditions of the task, But she didn't care about ot at all.

All she knew was not to fail. No matter what he threw at her, She had to harden her heart and bear it. If not, she might really lose him forever. She will never let that happen.

"Okay then, Tell me if the friend you want to use my power is a man or a woman?"

After doing all this, Alex was sure to take a step further now. It will be a matter of minutes until he breaks the news.

But for some reason other than being anxious, He was excited about it. Just thinking of taking permission from your girlfriend to bang her mother is quite unique and exhilarating.

There is too much mental satisfaction, It is worthy enough for him to take this risk. Anyway, What could go wrong? At best she will be angry at him for some time, He can handle a little temper of hers.

"Huh!?....Wh- Woman, She is a woman. How do you know, I need you to use your powers for moth- a friend of mine?"

Alia does not understand the meaning of his question, Like why he needs to know the gender of another party, But when she looked into her eyes. She understands it.

He might be jealous of that person as a man, That's why he asked her, That's the reason. She felt this was quite cute. There were also butterflies in her stomach because of it. She loves this feeling a lot.

Well, She didn't realize it but she got caught in the effect of "Peach Blossom Eyes", So she has this brain-feed moment, It's quite a convenient thing to have for the raid, Alex didn't have to spend extra time on thinking about logical reason, His target does that job for him.

That's why Alia answered quickly, So Alex will not misunderstand her, But she got curious and asked about how he knows she needs his superpower for others.

As for why she didn't tell her it was her mother? She didn't want to hide it but Alex already said it was her friend. She didn't want to point it out and make him angry that he will again start to give her the cold shoulder treatment.

So she just goes with the flow. Anyway, it's not important to know if it was her mother or friend, Right?

She can tell him, That "friend" is her mother after they were done with the task, So Alex will not be angry at her.

"I spent 1 year loving you, I know the meaning of every action, You will never ask me those dumb questions If you are not in urgent need of my superpower to use it on someone. But that person can't be family. After all, If it's family then you should have told me, So I assume the next best option, It will be friend."

"*murmur* It's hard to imagine you have friends, to be honest."

Alex had time to explain this and also solidify that she will not blurt out, That the "friend" they are going to see is her mother. This way his plan is foolproof.

The state Alia is showing right now, No matter what happens, She surely is not gonna reveal it. Giving him an escape route too. After everything is said and done, He can even throw all the responsibility saying he didn't know, and can even guilt trip Alia to escape from the consequences.

'Why does it exactly sound like by book definition of gaslighting? Well, I might be imagining it, Alex stops overthinking and focuses on the current task.'

Alex stops himself from overthinking illogical things, Anyway right his focus should be on banging his girlfriend's mom.

Have to say he felt both weird and excited thinking about it. He was going to unlock the feature most man's dreamed of doing in his past world but wasn't able to achieve it. But he was soon going to step into uncharted territory. May the power of anime and god be with him.

"Th-That's logical."

Alia was glad that she didn't say it was her mother, If she did that it should really piss Alex off. She makes a pact herself not to let Alex find this out until he was not angry at her anymore.

Before that under no circumstances, She will let him know about this fact. No matter what happened, Alex should not know about it.

As for his muttering under his breath? She didn't care about that. She even agreed with him. It's really hard to imagine her having a friend, Given her cold-blooded nature. Onky Natasha came anywhere close to being something called a friend.

Plus he admitting he loved her for year was done the trick, She didn't care what he wanted to do she will do it, Her body is strong she can handle getting little hurt.

"Okay then, Let's go and meet your friend, But before moving forward with this, I once again wanted you to confirm that you will do it no matter what I ask you to do, Do you agree?"

Now everything was in place and ready, Now all he needed to do was to give her a final push, Then she would fall completely. So he even changed the words to do task for him to do anything he says, This is also the reason why he asked this question multiple times.

"I am ready, You throw anything at me I will handle it."

Alia was confident in herself, And readily agreed. She couldn't wait to get this over with and go on the same romantic date with Alex.

She already planned everything in her mind, Now she just needs to make a call to arrange it.

"...Thank you and sorry in advance, I definitely will hurt you a lot in the next few hours. You can pull out any moment you want if you can't bear it. At least then we should have a good wholesome end to our relationship."

Alex was hesitant as he spoke and once again offer her the "option" to quit but also make it unusable as this is also an ultimatum.

This is nothing but a false choice, Alia feels like she has a choice but actually, He was leading her by the finger.

"*Sob* I love you, Alia *Kiss* You are really the best girlfriend, A man could ever ask for."

Alex embraced her curvy body in his arms and spoke very emotionally, After that he planted a sweet gentle kiss on her scarlet lips before praising her.

She was a really good if not a great girlfriend. After all, she was giving permission to her boyfriend to bang her mother on her own. Which girlfriend does that? Tell you not many.

"Now let's go and let me fuck that important person of yours."

Just after Alex finished praising her, He threw this bomb of information at her quickly and swiftly, As he prepared himself for the impact.

"Okay, Let's go and do it."

Alia also enthusiastically spoke these words contrary to Alex's expectation. He was surprised and looked at her, and then he found out the reason.

Alia didn't even listen to what he was talking about. After the kiss her brain stopped working and might even be crashed, So she didn't understand what he was saying. Her ears were hearing but her brain didn't process that information, So she just agreed.

[Ding!...]
