Learn self defense or die?

When they were going out to buy supplies to open the cafe and Grace chose to stay in the cafe, Melvin suddenly accidentally met a woman who was familiar, because they had met before.

"Hello, Melvin,"

"Hi, Adaline isn't it? I feel like I've met you before but I kind of forgot your name. Did I recognize you wrong?"

"Oh no, you're right. My name is Adaline. I remember you too, there's no way I could have forgotten. By the way, do you work here? It looks like it's going to open soon, right?" Adaline asked Melvin who immediately nodded his head in response to Adaline's question.

"Yes, I'll be working as a waiter at this cafe. It's true, this cafe is about to open, Adaline,”

Steve immediately turned to his side. Melvin had just confessed that he was going to work as a waiter at the cafe that was opening soon. Melvin didn't want to tell the truth.

"I see, good luck at work, Melvin."

"Okay, thank you, Adaline. By the way, can I have your contact?" Melvin asked.

"Of course you can,"

Adaline immediately took out her cell phone. She then showed her cell phone number to Melvin who quickly wrote it down on his phone and saved it in his contact list.

"I saved it, Line. I'll chat you later."

"Okay, I'll go first then,"

"Where are you going? Let me take you. My best friend and I are going to look for supplies for the cafe,"

"I'm going to the hospital to get some medicine."

"Oh yes, let's go now. I'll drive you to the hospital,"

"No, Melvin. I'm on my own. You have your own interests,"

Adaline didn't want to make Melvin spend time just to take her to the hospital.

"You can't talk like that. I'm willing to drive you, I don't mind a bit. So let's get you in my friend's car," Melvin said as he handed the car keys to a confused Steve.

"Oh this is your friend's car? What's your friend's name? I don't know his name yet," Adaline said as she looked at Steve and Melvin in turn.

"Steve, introduce yourself to Adaline," Melvin said to Steve.

Steve immediately extended his hand and said his name “Hi, Adaline. I’m Steve, Melvin’s best friend,”

"I'm Adaline, nice to meet you,"

"Okay let's go now,"

The car belonged to Melvin but Melvin didn't admit it. Instead, Melvin gave the keys to Steve and said that the car belonged to Steve. Steve was going to return the keys to the owner but the owner shook his head.

"You take it,"

"But-"

"Do it quickly, Steve,"

Steve immediately let out a rough sigh. Actually, Steve didn't understand why Melvin told him to drive the car, and Steve also didn't understand why Melvin couldn't just be honest that it was his own car.

Steve immediately opened the car door and got into the car followed by Melvin and Adaline.

"Melvin, thank you for taking me to the hospital."

"You're welcome, Adaline. We're friends now, right?"

"Yes, we're friends now."

Adaline was quite surprised to hear that. But of course she was happy when she made new friends, especially if they were nice like Melvin. On the second meeting, he was immediately kind to her like this.

*******

(The system came to inform you that this morning you have to learn self defense)

Melvin did not open his eyes despite being woken up by his mother and now the system.

(Sir must be stronger, learn self defense now, sir)

Melvin still didn't move. He was too tired from preparing his cafe to open later after conferring with Steve so that the cafe would be ready to receive visitors.

(If you don't wake up then the power and wealth system may be released from your body and you may die)

"Oh my God, I dreamt I died just now,"

Melvin suddenly woke up because he was shocked that he dreamed that he died. Immediately all his sleepiness disappeared because of that dream.

(Hurry up and take a shower, sir. Because you must learn self defense now if you don't want the wealth system and power system to be released from your body)

"If both are successfully released from my body then what happens?"

(You may die)

"Huh? Oh my God, am I going to die? No—no, I will hurry to learn self defense right now."

Melvin quickly left the bed and headed to the bathroom to clean himself up. After he was ready to receive self defense knowledge to make him stronger, he came out of the room to find that his teacher had already arrived.

"Good morning, Mr. Melvin,"

The person immediately smiled and extended his hand to get acquainted with Melvin.

"Morning, what's your name?"

"My name is Christ."

"All right, Christ. Thank you for coming. Please help me learn self defense so that I won't be attacked easily by others."

Melvin and Christ rushed to the front yard of Melvin's house and that's where they would train.

*******

Hasley's forehead furrowed after reading the ad that Steve had posted on social media. She was shocked after reading the ad.

-Please come to the opening of Melv's cafe this afternoon at 12:00. There are so many menus that you can try. And for those of you who come on the opening day, you can get a 50% discount on all purchases and our signature menu will be given away for free. Enjoy your time at Melv's cafe. See you later!

Hasley quickly closed the ad and muttered "Melv's cafe? Is that Melvin's cafe? Oh my God, how could he have money so quickly and open a cafe? I can't believe it! I have to prove it myself!"

"Hello, dear. Sorry to keep you waiting so long,"

Sean had just come into the living room to meet Hasley who had come to his house with food.

"I was wondering how you were doing," Hasley said.

"I'm fine,"

"The injuries from your fall from the motorcycle have all healed?"

"I think it's healed, thank you for your concern, dear. I don't care anymore about who got me hurt. The most important thing to me now is that I'm healed."

"Are you giving up on finding the culprit? He went so far as to make you fall down that you had to get hospitalization for your injuries,"

"Yes because it will be difficult to find the culprit,"

"Until now I still doubt that it wasn't Melvin. Somehow I'm sure that he did it to you. After he knocked you down, maybe he was immediately punished by the universe, maybe he had an accident and that's why he was hospitalized,"

"But we both saw the camera on the street. He didn't do it. We saw the car model and the vehicle number,"

"Yes, but I'm still suspicious of Melvin. I know he has a grudge against you,"

"Never mind, Hasley. Don't go overboard accusing others. It's clear that the car we saw on camera wasn't Melvin's car that Melvin took when he was going home from the hospital,"

"Well, he could have changed cars,"

"But there's no way his mom would lie. She said that her son was hurt by someone on purpose because they wanted to take his wallet, right? Let's just believe it. I'm too lazy to prolong this matter. What's wrong with you? Why do you hate Melvin now? You used to love him so much. You even had a special relationship for three years. Are you really not willing for your relationship to end?"

Hasley immediately gave Sean a sharp look. She was not happy when Sean thought that way.

"If I wasn't willing I would have chased after him when he left home after seeing me and you together,"

"I was finally able to get you after I struggled,"

"I should have been with you all along, Sean. I'm tired of poor Melvin, and he rarely has time for me. Slowly but surely I'm losing my feelings for him,"

Sean immediately grabbed his girlfriend hand and held it tightly. He looked at her softly.

"You won't leave me, Hasley?"

"I won't, I love you."

"Thank you for loving me,"

They hugged tightly. A few minutes later Hasley released their embrace while saying "But I'm confused as to why he's so rich now? It seems that since I left him, he immediately tried to find ways so that he could become a person with a lot of money. The proof is that he can be treated at a famous hospital, he can have a car, and just now I saw an advertisement from his friend Steve for a cafe opening under the name Melv's cafe. I think it's Melvin's cafe."

"Did you find out about Melvin on purpose?"

"No-no, I accidentally saw his ad on social media. He had a Car, and being hospitalized in a famous hospital, you can also see it, right? So it's not me finding out,"

"I thought you found out. If you do that it's a sign that you still love him!"
