World Domination Begins With Getting a System in a Modern World Chapter 4: Patty & Leslie

Jas slipped into a fresh set of clothes, feeling refreshed after washing away the gris of yesterday.

After putting on his clothes, he looked at himself in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.

He was very satisfied with his appearance. Though, he wasn't as handso and ripped as his model, Henry Canvill, he was by no ans ugly.

His short, dark hair frad his striking face, complinted by his mix of amber-brown and ocean-blue eyes, his straight nose, narrow lips, and a well defined jawline. He'd rate himself an 7 or 8 out of 10.

Yes, Jas' eyes has two different colours. His right eyes is ocean-blue and his left is amber-brown.

His unique eyes was actually one of the reasons he has been asked out a couple of tis by beautiful girls... and won. The most morable one of them was a professor.

He rembered the day she blocked him in the hallway and called him into her office, without telling him anything.

Initially, Jas thought that he was either in so sort of trouble or that she needed his help for sothing. But he was shocked when he saw her coming on him.

When he saw her action, he thought she was trying to play a prank on him but when he saw her starting to slowly unbutton her clothes, he took it as his cue to leave.

Why?! That particular professor was one that's rumoured to be having an affair with the Dean of his departnt.

Jas didn't want get into any trouble with such person and jeopardise his future. And that was why he did what he felt was best.

Also, there has been so other crazy rumours surrounding the lady and this was even more reason for Jas to avoid her.

Unfortunately for Jas, that day was the closest he ca to getting laid.

***

Ahem, back to the present. Jas took a look at himself in the mirror one more ti, before leaving his room.

He climbed down the stairs and halfway, his nostrils was hit by a very mouthwatering aroma that made him hungry imdiately.

He couldn't be blad. Patty, his foster mom, cooks in a way that makes anyone, who perceives the aroma of her food, to begin to salivate imdiately.

Jas climbed down the stairs and went to the kitchen to greet the person responsible for the aroma that has enveloped the house.

Walking into the kitchen, he caught a side view of his foster mom, Patricia, standing in front of the cooker, with a steaming pot resting on it.

He smiled as he slowly walked to her and hugged her from behind, and gave her a light peck on her cheek.

"Hey, Patty," he greeted, still hugging her from behind.

"Hey, honey," Patty replied his greeting, with a sweet smile on her face.

"I'm cooking your favourite. Just give a few minutes and it will be ready," she said, opening the pot and lightly stirring its content.

"Ok. And as always, your cooking is the best," Jas said and gave Patty one more peck on the cheek, before releasing her from his hug.

Patty chuckled and smiled at Jas' action, before turning her attention to what she was cooking.

Jas walked to the fridge and poured himself a cold glass of water. He quickly downed it and left the kitchen, leaving Patty alone to continue working her magic.

He walked to the living room and saw Leslie seated on the sofa, deeply engrossed in a TV show.

From how engrossed she was in the in what she was watching and totally unaware of his presence, Jas felt that this was her new favourite TV show.

Seeing this, Jas thought of sothing and smiled mischievously. He walked to a sofa and took his seat.

"Jim. You're here. Co watch this series with . It's so good! I have no idea why I haven't watched it yet!" she said, with a bright smile on her face.

Jas nodded in satisfaction when he saw how how happy she was. He felt that her happiness was ripe for harvesting.

He turned to the TV and saw that the show was now at a scene where two of the side characters who were previously in a relationship, are having a fight.

Jas has watched this particular series before and he knew exactly was going to happen. And he knew what was going to happen after the they were watching now.

"Nate and Maddy later got back together at the end of the season," Jas said, making sure his voice was more than loud enough for Leslie to hear.

After what he said, Jas continued watching the series like nothing ever happened. But all that was a lie, as he was using his side eye to watch for Leslie's reaction.

Just as he has expected and wanted, he saw her slowly turned to look at him with burning rage in her eyes.

"No, they did not!" she said, through gritted teeth, with her most intimidating voice.

"They did but it doesn't matter now if they didn't, as you will know by the end of the season," Jas said, doing his best to put on the best neutral look he could co up with.

He has already achieved what he wanted and Leslie was also aware of this, and thus her next reaction.

"I. Hate. You. I curse you to being single for eternity. You will never get a kiss from a girl till you die!"

Jas smirked in satisfaction when he saw Leslie's reaction.

"1-1. That's payback for scaring like that," he said, with a mischievous smile on his face.

"Hehehe. I got you good then. You should have seen how pale your face was. It was like you saw an actual ghost. Don't worry though. There's more from where that ca from.

I will zealously continue my role in bringing colour to your extrely boring life," Leslie said, with a proud smile on her face.

"Trust , you have no idea how interesting my life has beco," Jas smiled.

"Mmmm... Now, I'm curious. Have you finally found a girlfriend? After twenty long years of a streak of singledom and being a singlet, did you finally get yourself a girlfriend?" Leslie asked, looking at with curiosity and anticipation clearly written on her face.

"No, I haven't gotten a girlfriend. And why did you think a girl has anything to do with my life becoming interesting?

Must I have a girl in my life before it can be interesting?" Jas asked, looking at Leslie with a questioning look on his face.

"Ohh... It's not because of a girl. Then, I'm not interested," Leslie said, with a visible look of disappointnt on her face.

"And yes, your life can never be interesting without a girl. The drama and stress that cos with us is sothing that will brighten up your life, everyday," She added before turning her attention to the TV, and continued watching the show.

Jas could only shake his head. He wanted to respond to Leslie's words but with his knowledge of her personality, he decided to not comnt further.

The next mont, Patty's voice cut through the air and reached their ears.

"The two of you should stop your childishness and co eat."

Jas and Leslie imdiately stood up and walked to the dining table, where Patty had set what Jas considers to be a banquet.

Jas smiled and licked his lips when he saw the delicacies in front of him. He quickly took his seat seat and started eating.

***

Few minutes later, Jas was done devouring the food on his plates. He thanked Patty, as he stood up and took his dish to the sink.

After that, he ca back and pecked Patty on the cheek as a thank you, and flipped Leslie a middle finger, before going to his room.

Walking into his room, Jas locked the door and walked to his bed.

"Now, it's just you and ." Jas smiled to himself, as he called up his Info Screen.
