Chapter 150 - Missing Her
Meanwhile, Tristan, who was oblivious of the fact that his grandpa and his wife were currently having quality time together, just finished the first set of tasks Grandpa Lu had given him.
When he turned to his wall-clock, he learned that it was almost lunchtime.
"Oh sh!t! I should go back to my place to feed FaMo. We left him in the house alone." Tristan stood up immediately when he remembered FaMo.
Then a playful smirk tugged on his lips. He felt like he got even with FaMo now. Zhen-Zhen was attending school and she couldn't bring FaMo with her.
He somehow felt jealous of FaMo. He always stuck with his wife 24/7. He was also the reason he couldn't score with his wife when it was time to sleep. FaMo was sleeping in the middle of them!
Just thinking about that, Tristan could only sigh helplessly. He felt a little bit frustrated but he had no choice but to endure. Aside from him, FaMo was very special to Zhen-Zhen.
It would be childish if he would try to compete with a cat for Zhen-Zhen's attention. It would also hurt his ego because a cat just like FaMo could match his value to his wife.
He wanted to have an edge over FaMo but sad to say, he could feel that both of them had equal importance to Zhen-Zhen.
After a while, Tristan informed Matthew that he would go to his place and be back after the lunch break.
Fifteen minutes later, Tristan arrived home.
FaMo who was in his hibernation mode suddenly awakened when he felt Tristan's presence. He put up an invisible barrier around Tristan's Condo Unit.
It was a specialized barrier that would not hurt people and anyone could still pass through. It was only made so that it would detect anyone's presence while FaMo was in deep concentration.
He was still trying to recover his magical powers and strength. The force he had sensed before was still bothering him. He didn't feel at ease.
It seemed like an enemy would just suddenly appear at any moment, that's why FaMo was trying his best to regain his strength.
He knew that Tristan came to feed him. This was what Tristan and Zhen-Zhen had agreed before they left FaMo in the house alone.
FaMo had regained 45 percent of his magical power. He could now easily teleport to Zhen-Zhen's location if ever she needed him.
FaMo told Zhen-Zhen to use their communication link to let him know if she wanted to summon him and he would go right away to her.
This reminded him that he still needed to teach Zhen-Zhen the summoning technique so that she could summon FaMo at any moment using her own magical powers.
'Ah! I should start training her. Now it's my turn to teach her in controlling power.' FaMo made a mental note.
He was in his small dragon form when Tristan arrived outside the door. FaMo immediately transformed into his cat form before Tristan entered the house.
FaMo felt Tristan's aura in the living room. He removed the barrier before he went out, coming from Zhen-Zhen's room.
Though Zhen-Zhen and Tristan were both using his room now, FaMo and Zhen-Zhen were still using the other room during day time.
"FaMo!" Tristan called him out right away.
FaMo just rolled his eyes when he saw Tristan extending his arms, expecting FaMo to come over.
'Duh! You are not Zhen-Zhen, why should I come to you?' FaMo thought to himself.
He planned to ignore Tristan and just lay down on the sofa. But the moment he smelled the food, his feet reflexively moved towards Tristan's direction.
'Argh! I'm becoming more of a cat now. Why am I acting like this?' FaMo scolded himself.
Tristan, on the other hand, bent down to carry FaMo who was now standing in front of him. With the bag of food in his left hand, Tristan carried FaMo using his right hand as they went to the dining area.
Tristan put FaMo down on the table as he prepared his food.
"FaMo, how are you? Did you get bored of staying here alone?" Tristan started a conversation as if he was talking to another person, not a cat.
Too bad, FaMo was not allowed to talk to him or Tristan would freak out. A talking cat might scare him to the bone.
Besides, FaMo's existence as a mighty dragon was a secret between Zhen-Zhen and him. Tristan forbade Zhen-Zhen to use her power so she didn't tell Tristan about FaMo's true form yet.
If Tristan would find out then his nightmare would make sense. It would be the explanation of why he kept on seeing a black fire dragon in his dream.
He would also realize that his nightmare was not just a coincidence but it was intentionally created by FaMo.
Tristan was done preparing his food. He sat down in front of FaMo while watching him. FaMo didn't mind Tristan's presence as he began eating his food.
Tristan continued talking to FaMo.
"FaMo, did you miss Zhen-Zhen already? This was the first time you got separated from her for a very long time. You always stick with her all the time. Hmmm. I guess you miss her already." Tristan said to FaMo but deep inside it was him who truly missed her.
Last whole month, Zhen-Zhen and Tristan were always together, staying, and bonding at home while Tristan was helping her with her studies.
He suddenly missed those moments, especially their question and answer portion wherein he could always punish Zhen-Zhen by either biting her or Zhen-Zhen kissing him.
"FaMo! You missed Zhen-Zhen, right?" Tristan asked FaMo once again but he got no response from him. FaMo just continued eating, completely ignoring his presence.
"FaMo! Eat faster! Let's go and see her. It's also her lunch break! She has no class now!" Tristan mumbled excitedly. He wanted to see her.
When FaMo heard that, he stopped eating and he turned to look at Tristan, eyeing him weirdly.
'Why are you keep on asking me if I miss her? I can teleport to her location anytime. It's you who missed her so badly, just admit it! Don't use me as an alibi to see her.'
"FaMo! Zhen-Zhen will be surprised to see us. Let's go. You can eat in the car!" After saying that, Tristan immediately carried FaMo as well as his food on the table. Tristan was in a hurry.
