Chapter 27 Wait A Big Star In the Slums
"Yeah. Sean is right, Ca, even a child has a bigger insight than you. Couldn''t you be more open-
minded?"
Terence looked at Sean appreciatively. It looked like his future brother-inw had so much potential.
After all, Sean conveyed his thoughts in a more sensible manner.
A vein popped out of Ca''s temple. That was it. These two were getting on her nerves. She balled her
hand in a fist and pounded on the dinner table.
She barked, "What the hell you two are doing?
Sean, a 10-year-old kid shouldn''t be worrying about marriage especially mine!"
Then she turned to Terence, "And you, mister, just because I kindly let you stay here doesn''t mean you
can do anything as you please! Just stop talking nonsense. I''m done!"
With that, Ca stormed off as she went to her room. The two boys jumped up a bit when she mmed
the door.
Terence shrugged and wrapped his arm around Sean''s shoulders, "See? Girls get really shy and when
they get really shy, they get irritated. From now on, we will only keep this to ourselves. Got it?"
Sean nodded in agreement with determined eyes.

He chirped, pumping his fist into the air, "You are right, Terence!"
When Ca had gotten back into her room, she plopped down on her bed and stared at the ceiling.
Ca was starting to smell something fishy about Terence. What did Terence want from them in the first
ce? It wasn''t like he only stayed because he nned of keeping Seanpany.
In order to avoid going out of her room and seeing Terence, she decided not to shower until it was very
She nced at her cellphone. It was already 10:30PM.
Thank God! She couldn''t wait any longer! She changed into her pajamas and crept out of her room.
She took a peek and sighed in relief when she saw no one at the living room. Maybe Terence was in
Sean''s room.
She tiptoed to the bathroom and noticed that the light was still on.
"Anyone in there?"
She asked but nobody answered from inside. She thought probably Sean forgot to turn off the light
again, and so she turned the doorknob and went in.
"Ah! Oh my Gosh! A pervert!"
Ca screamed and quickly covered her eyes. Terence had just finished bathing and was already
drying himself.
He spoke up, "You know, I waited for a long time for you to get out of your room to take a shower. I
figured that you weren''t going toe out so I helped myself."
"Then why didn''t you say something when I asked if someone was inside?" Ca turned back and
mmed the door behind her.
''Ugh. He''s so stupid! Like, I already asked who''s inside and he didn''t even reply!''
"Well, I have the right to remain silent. Besides, this isn''t the first time you saw me naked," Terence
wrapped a bath towel around his waist and walked out.
At the first night he arrived at her home, she saw him butt naked.
"I didn''t mean to see you naked around that time!" Ca eximed, trying her best not to kick
Terence''s ass.
Terence dried his hair with a towel and squinted at her, "It doesn''t matter whether or not you meant it.
You saw me anyway and that''s what matters."
And it was true that it happened that she saw him butt naked.
Ca went speechless as the man started to pace around her house. She sighed deeply, trying to
suppress her anger and turned her attention to the bathroom.
Terence finally stopped on his tracks. His eyes trailed at the bathroom''s direction. Behind its frosted
ss, he veered over a slender graceful figure. The sound of the shower came from it, bringing him out
of the daze.
He wasn''t the type to get impulsive.
Yet he noticed that he was bing more and more impulsive around Ca.
When 20 minutes had passed, Ca walked out of the bathroom, wearing a towel on her head and her
bathrobe. She tiptoed to her room like a thief.
When she finally got inside the room, she started to sigh in relief.
Terence was sitting in the living the room and was typing something in hisptop. He heard her door
click and shook his head.
He murmured, "If I want to get in, I will get in. Not even a hundred locks could stop me."
The next day, it was already afternoon when Sean finished his sses.
He went to y basketball with Terence in the yground of their neighborhood.
Ca didn''t go back home right after work. Since she thought it was still early, she went to the mall and
started browsing some toy shops.
It was going to be Sean''s birthday on Sunday and it was already Friday. As his sister, she wanted to
prepare something as gift for him.
Every year, she would cook his favorite food and buy a small simple cake. But Sean was turning 10
years old, so she wanted to prepare something special for him.
She was much older than Sean. Not to mention, they had a ratherrge age gap and she watched him
grow up everyday.
After their parents passed away, Ca assumed all the responsibility for Sean.
"Hello, sir, how much is this?" She pointed at a remote-controlled toy airne. She remembered the
time Sean would beg her to buy that for him but she would disagree since it was too expensive.
"Oh, this one? This drone is thetest model of our brand. It''s on for 999 dors. If you would like, you
cane in and take a look. You can also choose from any other models,"
The shop assistant replied, smiling.
Ca went inside the shop to walk around. Her eyes widened when she saw the prices of those toys!
Some could cost from 3, 000 up to 8, 000!
The one she saw at the window seemed to be the cheapest one.
"I''ll just take the model like the one outside your window," she pointed at the toy.
Considering her financial condition, she had to go with the cheapest one. For her, 1000 dors was
already too much.
Back in the residence estate, Ca asked the doorman to keep the gift until Sean''s birthday. She
wanted to keep it as a surprise.
As she was walking upstairs, she noticed many people running towards the basketball court. Most of
them were girls.
"Abby? What''s happening? Is there anything there?" Ca quickly grabbed Martha''s second daughter
Abby. Martha lived in the same building as Ca.
"Well, I don''t exactly know the details but there are rumors that a big star came to our neighborhood.
So I followed them to see it for myself," Abby replied.
After she said that, she ran along with the others towards the basketball court.
Wait what? A big star? Visiting the slums?
What a ridiculous rumor!
Ca didn''t believe it at all and was very skeptic about it.
Then she just shrugged and followed the crowd. It wouldn''t hurt if she needed to confirm the rumor with
her two own eyes, right?
The basketball court was suddenly jam-packed. Almost all the people in the neighborhood went there
to see what was going on.
Ca made her way onto the edge of the court, bumping onto the crowd. Then she saw a familiar man
who was dribbling the ball. He was followed by a shorter young boy who was trying to think of a way to
steal the ball from him.
Her mouth dropped when she finally recognized these two men inside the court.
''T-Terence? Sean?'' she thought.
"Oh my gosh! Terence is so cool! I love him!"
"Wait, does he even loves you?"
"Of course! He loves his fans so he must love me!"
"Oh yeah? Do you know him? Could you introduce me to him?"
"Of course not! I am not sharing my Terence with anybody!"
Ca listened to the banter of two young girls. She looked at the fully packed basketball court, clicked
her tongue and shook her head.
Why do these people have to be so zealous toward some good-looking guy.
''They are just some bumpkins who don''t really have an idea how the world works!'' Ca thought to
herself, frowning.
"Ca!" ''Oh God!'' Ca deadpanned.
Sean''s sharp eyes caught the sight of his sister standing in front of the crowd. He smiled, wiped off the
sweat from his forehead, and waved at her fiercely.
