Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 613 Meeting Rebecca After Eighteen Years || Present Time

After meeting Rias, Rudy flew to his house instead of teleporting as he gathered courage.

SIGH!

'Rias made me more nervous than before. The look on her face was priceless… I don't know what type of reaction I was expecting from her. Rias and… Elena is the only one who knows about this.

As for Angelica… I don't know. Should I tell her that mom is her sister? Would that bring her memories back… no, I highly doubt it. It's best if I ask mom about the details first. I need to learn everything related to Angelica.

Come to think of it, Rias didn't react when she learned that Jessica was also in my harem, but she looked kind of displeased after I told her that I wanted mom in my harem. Wait… could it be that they have some sort of rivalry between them?

I just learned from Rias that she tried to scare mom, but it didn't work. What else did she try? Maybe she challenged mom and lost?'

Rudy couldn't be more right, which was precisely why Rias was displeased after learning that Rudy wanted to add her to his harem.

All this time, Even Rias thought that she was his favorite girl, but she learned of Elise and admitted that Elise was his favorite. But Rudy recently told her that Angelica was his favorite and after knowing that Rebecca was also going to join his harem, she felt defeated by the two sisters.

However, she wasn't opposed to the idea or hated them. She simply wanted to be Rudy's first choice.

Rudy landed in front of the house and made his way to the front door.

"Here we go." He took a deep breath and opened the door.

'I am technically entering the house after eighteen years. I have so many questions to ask.'

Rudy entered the house, fully prepared, but all his courage vanished when he realized Rebecca was sleeping.

Rudy glanced around and muttered, "Lucy isn't home yet. Should I… wake mom up? No, let's let her sleep. I would be pissed if someone woke me up when I was tired."

Rudy decided to inspect the house and check how many things were still present there after 1989.

'The water tank, washing machine, my bed. The water line isn't working as I had connected it with the motor and the well, but the well dried up, so it makes sense why there was no water.

But What happened to the solar panel? They should easily last for twenty years, so why were they removed? I do remember there was a crazy storm in the town when I was a kid, but… that wouldn't have damaged all the panels… right?

I know storms can be crazy and can even send a house flying. But I read about the storm in the article, and it was stated that no lives were lost, nor was anything majorly damaged.

There are no batteries, either. And what about the money? I had left a lot of money for Rebecca and Jessica, and they would have lived their life without worry using that money.

But for as long as I can remember, we have had money problems ever since I was a kid. And why are we paying rent for this house if it belongs to mom? Something must have happened.'

After a brief silence, Rudy lowered his gaze and muttered, "I trusted Elena to take care of Jessica and Rebecca, so why didn't she?'

Rudy thought it was the best time to take a bath and calm down, so he went to his room and grabbed his clothes. After that, he went to the bathroom and came out after half an hour.

While taking a bath, he heard some noise from the kitchen, so he assumed Lucy must have returned as she was already past her regular time. But when he checked the kitchen, he saw Rebecca drinking water.

"..."

Rudy walked to the kitchen and greeted Rebecca with an awkward smile on his face.<.com>

"Hey… mom."

"Are you back from school?" she asked. "Where is Lucy?"

"She is not here yet. It seems she is with her friends."

Rudy was worried about Lucy, so when he tracked her location, he found her hanging out with her friends in a cafe.

Rebecca placed the water bottle back in the refrigerator and walked close to Rudy.

"..."

She stopped in front of him and slowly moved her hand toward him.

'What is she…'

Rebecca touched Rudy's hair and said, "Your hair is so wet! You should dry them, or you will catch a cold."

"Ah… yeah."

'Why am I so nervous? I just have to act normal! Nothing is wrong yet!

Rudy needed to figure out where to start the conversation, but he knew he had to start somewhere.

"Umm… mom."

"Hmm?"

"Well…. I… I wanted to know more about dad. How did he die? I am an adult now, so isn't it better if I know everything?" he asked calmly.

Rudy indirectly tried to ask Rebecca as he assumed there must be a reason why Rebecca never told him that she already knew everything.

"Why do you want to know what happened all of a sudden?"

"No reason. It was just in my mind. Like, you know… there is a sports festival in school, and parents usually come and watch how their kids are doing. So… I just… missed dad and wondered what my life would be like if he was alive."

Rudy wasn't lying. He had truly felt like that in his past life and even asked Rebecca about Albert many times, but she never answered him correctly. He expected the same thing to happen this time, and he was ready for it.

"I don't really know much about him… actually. He was rarely home, and I never had a chance to spend time with him," Rebecca answered with a distant smile on her face.

'Albert had never been there for Jessica and Rebecca and only visited them twice a week. No wonder they don't have any good memories of him.'

"Do you remember what I promised you on your birthday?" Rudy asked in a calm voice.

Rudy decided to be direct with her instead of beating around the bush.
