JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 43
At Julia’s house. Julia was busy with her tailoring work. Her son was watching television while smoking a cigar. “Mom, I need some money.” “I don’t have a dime to give to you,” Julia blurted. “If you want money, then find a job. Until then, I’ll feed you and let you stay under this roof. That’s all I’m going to do for you. Don’t expect more from me because my health isn’t as good as it was. The overwork is slowly getting to me.” “Why do you waste your money on the court case?” her son, Daniel, snorted. “You won’t be able to bring Dad out with the little bit of money you are giving to the lawyer. All you’re doing is filling his pockets. When will you get that?” “Then what do you want me to do?” she howled. “Give YOU money so you can smoke and drink yourself to death?” “No, Mom. I was asking for money to buy some chocolates. Today is your birthday, right?” Daniel said, surprising her. “I will distribute the chocolates to the neighbors. I’m sure it’ll help you bring some clients.” “

Daniel came home about two hours later. He didn’t see Jim’s footwear outside, so he smiled and entered quickly. “Mom, where’s the cake?” he asked aloud, pulling the curtain aside.To his shock, Jim was right inside, watching the TV. “Welcome, Danny. We’ve been waiting for you.”“Eek!” Daniel saw that there was a stick on the couch. “W-What’s that stick for?”“Why would a man need a stick? You are smart enough to know that, don’t you?” Jim casually replied. “Your mother has told me all the things you’ve been doing. I thought I disciplined you enough last time, but it looks like you’ve grown the tail once again. So, I’m here to once again cut that tail, this time not through beating, of course.”“Bullshit. You have the stick, so what are you saying?”“You’ll know soon.”Soon, Julia brought a big wooden box from the basement. It was quite heavy for her, so Jim quickly helped her.“Mom, those are grandpa’s guns!” Daniel’s eyes widened. “Don’t tell me, you’re giving them to him?!”Julia w

Jim took Daniel to the gun range, and Daniel was very surprised to see that there really was a tennis court where there were rich boys and girls gathered.“I thought you were lying to get me to go with you, but I was wrong,” Daniel said. “Let us go into that stadium, so we can also play?”“I don’t have the money to get a pass into that place,” Jim said, sounding a little pitiful. “I never promised anything except teaching you how to use guns. And that’s what I’m going to do.”“But…” Daniel couldn’t take his eyes off the girls that were wearing skirts and were playing among themselves. “I’ve dreamed of rich girls falling for me. Help me make one of those girls fall for me, Jim.”“You don’t have a job, and worse, you have nasty habits. Knowing that, I can’t possibly waste a girl’s time by pairing her with you,” Jim’s blunt reply shocked Daniel.“I-If I impress you with my shooting skills, then will you introduce one of the girls to me?” Daniel asked.“Haha, do you think I’m a broker or

Jim returned home at around nine in the night. He put the big wooden box in the bushes before entering the house.Lola and Marc were having dinner. Seeing Jim, Lola quickly said, “Where the hell did you go, Jim? The day your wife leaves the country, you go out and have fun! How many women did you sleep with?”“Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?” Jim snorted. “Don’t talk rubbish without any proof.”“Then tell me where you went? You disappeared in the morning and are returning right now,” Lola blurted. “What does a man like you who has no friends or job do for twelve hours outside?”“That’s none of your business, Aunt,” Jim retorted. “Did you ever tell me what you do outside the house? No, you don’t have to tell me, but do you at least tell your own husband where you’re going?”Lola frowned. “Are you trying to put a wedge between me and my husband?” she slapped the table in anger. “Every time I step out of the house, I multiply our money before I come back into the house. I’m th

“I waited three hours for you!” Shiney tried her best to not yell at the woman sitting across the table in Malcolm’s restaurant, the same restaurant where Jim tried to join but was refused because of Marc’s intervention.Veronica, the woman sitting in front of Shiney, was very beautiful to look at. So, Shiney couldn’t quite get angry at her.“Something urgent came up, so I ended up coming late,” Veronica said. She was the same as Shiney, and both of them had similar body structures. The only difference was that Shiney had a long face and a bigger nose, which Shiney didn’t like. “Still, you waited three hours for me. I’m very impressed by your patience levels. So, I won’t charge any money for the tips I’m going to give you today!”“That’s nice,” Shiney gladly accepted it because she didn’t have much pocket money left with her anyway. “Then tell me… How am I going to get close to my brother-in-law? I want him to love me and think of no woman other than me. How can I get him to look at n

The next morning.Jim woke up in Rena’s bed, feeling very relaxed and cozy because her bed felt like heaven. Even though Rena wasn’t physically present, her scent was all over the pillow and blanket, so it made him feel very comfortable.“I wonder if Marc started making breakfast,” he laughed a little. “Last night, I made it very clear that I won’t cook for them. I’m sure Marc must be feeling very angry because he has to wake up early and cook for his wife.” Unable to contain his excitement, he quickly went downstairs and checked in the kitchen.As he guessed, Marc was busy preparing breakfast.“You’re not cooking for me, right, Uncle?” Jim asked.“Hmph, not in a million years,” Marc arrogantly blurted.“Thank you, because I find it difficult to eat your cooking, to be honest,” Jim said and then left.“This brat…” Marc’s blood boiled. Careless, he ended up touching the frying pan and then hissed in pain. “Ugh.” He kept blowing air to his fingers. “Fuck.”Meanwhile, Jim entered the gym

Jim didn’t specifically cook anything for himself. He simply blended some greens and drank the juice. The drink recovered his lost vitality after the three-hour long intense workout.As Jim was going out of the house, Shiney was standing by the Lamborghini as if she was waiting for him. She kept spinning the keys around her forefinger. “Where are you going? Want me to drop you off?”Jim would be lying if he didn’t want to feel this luxury car, but he knew that Shiney was a reckless driver, so he said, “No. I have my skates.” After crossing the gate, he put his rollerblades on and cruised down the street.Shiney came out the gate and saw him leave in a flash. “It always looks so cool. I tried learning how to rollerblade, but it was scary.” After she bruised her elbows and head a few times, she quit. “He’s lucky to have learned them when he was young.”After entering another street, Jim somewhat slowed down and went at a steady speed. With wind blowing in his hair, it was the nicest fee

Out of the four gangsters, Jim beat three of them out of their senses, and then took the fourth guy with him. The fourth guy kept telling Jim he’d give money. “Trust me, dude. You don’t want to do this. Our gang is filled with over fourteen guys. Some of them even went to jail. You don’t want to mess with them. Just take the money I’ll give you, and we’ll not come after that woman and her son anymore.” “I can’t trust the words that come from the mouth of a gangster,” Jim was frank about it. “I’m going to have to deal straight with the boss of your gang for messing with my people.” “Your people? How are you related to them?” “You don’t need to know that.” A few minutes later, Jim reached the destination on his rollerblades while dragging the gangster with him. The headquarters or the gathering point of these local thugs turned out to be a small abandoned kindergarten school which had many holes on its roof. “This place is so shitty even dogs wouldn’t want to stay here for long.
