Chapter 93: Investment - Part 16
"Are you sure they'll come?"
"They will, they will—so shush it. You're making me more nervous."
Sitting in a retro café that blended vintage aesthetics with a lush garden, giving a calm and refreshing feeling to anyone seated by the corner table beside the large glass windows, Jess and Jeff enjoyed their relaxing early morning date while waiting for their supposed companions.
Or rather, it was a relaxing breakfast for Jeff and a stressful one for Jess. After all, it was her first day on the job as a model for PoruMerc's women's division—and her first professional photoshoot.
Despite waking up fully satisfied from savoring Jeff's naked body and embrace in her sleep, and refreshed without any trace of puffiness from crying last night or eye bags from staying up late, Jess still felt nervous, wondering if she really looked and felt ready for the photoshoot. But to Jeff, she was already perfect in every way.
Her pristine white skin and slender hourglass figure were highlighted by her outfit—a black, slim-fit sleeveless vest top and mini skirt paired with a white coat, contrasting her elegant long black hair. The alluring and seductive look of her face, accentuated by only a touch of makeup, made Jeff extremely excited and aroused just by glancing at Jess sitting beside him.
"Are you seriously having perverted thoughts right now..." Jess murmured, noticing the bulge in Jeff's pants.
"Well..." Jeff leaned closer to Jess, whispering into her ear, "It's a boyfriend's job to have an erection for his girlfriend—especially when she dresses up for him."
"I didn't dress up for you... idiot..."
That was the only thing Jess could deny—not the fact that she'd wanted and approved Jeff to be her "convenient boyfriend" for the day, nor reject his tight embrace as he wrapped his arms around her to calm her nervousness.
"Just go to a hotel—"
"—And get a room already."
Voicing the thoughts of everyone in the café—both staff and customers who were forced to watch the two get intimate in public—were the companions Jess and Jeff had been waiting for: Jess's twin friends, Mira and Mina.
Although they looked almost identical—both of average height, with slender figures and attractive faces—they even wore matching outfits: high-waist white crop tops with jeans and black jackets. Even Jeff could tell them apart—Mira with her short blonde hair and Mina with her short black hair.
"Or is it the other way around?" Jeff asked, confused and unsure.
"We spent a whole month on our internship, and you still can't remember which is which," Jess retorted, breaking free from his embrace and elbowing him in the side as she grew annoyed remembering how Jeff had ignored her during their internship.
Realizing the reason for her sudden anger, Jeff once again leaned closer to Jess, whispering in her ear—half to apologize, half to tease.
"I was so engrossed in my fantasies about you, I barely noticed anyone else back then."
"Pervert!"
That, of course, was true. It was exactly what his past self had been doing before Jeff regressed twelve years into the past—stalking Jess even though he'd already decided to keep his distance and ignore his feelings for her, burdened by guilt over having lewd and dirty fantasies about someone he truly considered his real twin sister.
That didn't mean Mira and Mina weren't attractive enough for Jeff to notice them. Even he shared Kris and Marc's fantasy of having twin girlfriends.
Mira and Mina might have been on the shorter and slimmer side, but that only made them more attractive and eye-catching.
All the guys during their internship had been making moves on them just as much as they were on Jess. The only problem was that Mira and Mina didn't seem interested in having boyfriends.
That was all Jeff knew about Mira and Mina—unlike Jess, who knew that her friends were only interested in each other, being in a Yuri x Incest relationship.
At least, that had been true until Mira and Mina accidentally saw Jess and Jeff's intimacy up close—with front-row seats, or rather, bed—during their vacation trip.
"You didn't meet us after our vacation trip and kept ignoring our requests," Mira said, taking a seat at the table in front of Jess and Jeff, followed by Mina.
"And now you're calling us out of nowhere, so urgently and early in the morning, just to brag about your boyfriend?"
"I'm not here to brag about Jeff!"
As for why Jess and Jeff were meeting Mira and Mina—the twins were Jess's suggestion to be her personal photographer and assistant manager.
Unknown to Jeff, Mira and Mina were well-known cosplayers, both online and in cosplay circles. Jeff had been dumbfounded when Jess showed him their accounts and pictures of their cosplays.
With their experience as professional cosplayers, Mira and Mina could indeed support Jess in her modeling career. But that wasn't Jeff's concern right now.
Unknown to Jess, Jeff had masturbated multiple times in the past—using photos of the anime characters the twins had cosplayed as, not knowing they were Mira and Mina themselves.
"Pervert!" Jess grumbled, noticing Jeff ogling Mira and Mina's cosplay pictures. She elbowed him in the side so hard that he leaned down against the table, writhing in pleasurable pain—which only made his erection harder.
Understanding what Jess and Jeff were squabbling about, Mira and Mina couldn't help but tease them.
"Don't be so hard on your boyfriend, Jess," Mira said, grinning.
"The four of us could have fun together—right, Jeff?" Mina added, smiling sweetly at him.
At least, that's how their remark sounded to Jeff—but not to Jess.
"Shush it!—That's not why I called you two!"
Jess explained to Mira and Mina the details of her modeling work with PoruMerc's women's division, causing the twins to almost spit out their tea in shock and disbelief when they learned she'd been hired by one of the country's leading fashion companies.
"Just your photographer and assistant manager? Hire us as models too, dammit!"
"Forget modeling—use your boyfriend's connections and have PoruMerc sponsor our cosplay account!"
"Work your ass off if you want to get what you want!"
Watching Jess have fun with her friends, Jeff couldn't help but feel happy for her—though his erection was still going strong. Yet, despite his loving thoughts and lustful desire, a sudden worry crossed his mind.
Why had Jess never mentioned Mira and Mina in his previous timeline before his regression? Not even once, as she stayed by his side on his hospital bed until his death.
