Chapter 16: We Are Different

After dealing with all the matters Alvin found that it was almost 3 o’clock. Holding Ginny, he walked into the bar, poured Ginny a glass of lemonade, and carried her upstairs together.

In Alvin’s room, Ginny was standing on the ground, fingers crossed, not knowing where to put them. The expression on the small face showed a little inferiority and anxiousness. Alvin took off the torn plaid shirt, rolled it into a ball, and wiped it on his chest. He squatted down, looked at Ginny, pointed at his chest, and said to Ginny, “Look, I’m fine, dad is amazing!”

Ginny jumped in front of Alvin in surprise, and touched Alvin’s chest with her little hand, trying to find the wound she caused. In the end, only four thin scars were found, which could not be seen without looking closely.

Ginny was relieved, the smile returned to her face, and she stammered: “Dad, great, Dad.” Ginny, who had some difficulties in communication, had some words that she couldn’t say in her heart, which made her a little anxious, and she cutely grabbed her head.

Alvin tenderly tidied up some of her messy hair. He kissed her on the forehead and comforted her: “Ginny, you’re very smart, we can take it slowly in the future.” After that, he kissed her again.

Pulling Ginny’s hands over, he stroked her fingers to see if there was any dry blood there. A little distressed, he asked, “Does it hurt?”

Ginny tilted her head and thought for a moment, realizing that Alvin was caring about her, and said with a happy smile, “I’m used to it, it doesn’t hurt.” Then she wiped it with her fingers sensibly, and Alvin frowned, “Ginny, okay, dad, not afraid.”

Alvin felt that his heart was about to melt, to think that his daughter would care about her father.
Even if she carried two knives and two pistols in her hands, he would like her! He hugged Ginny hard, walked to the window, and motioned her to come over.

Ginny walked over curiously, and Alvin found that Ginny was so small, standing by the window that she couldn’t see the outside.
He looked at her with amusement, grabbed the window sill with both hands, and tiptoed hard, finally, she could see over the sill.

He picked up Ginny, pointed out the window, and said, “Ginny, different, Dad, different.” There was no one in the alley outside the window at this time.
In the dark alley, a dark green vine came out of the sewer, straightened its body, and reached Alvin’s window.

Alvin pinched the slender head of the vine, the Poison Creeper, and shook its body, seeming to be happy. Then Alvin directed the vine to say hello to Ginny, Ginny opened her mouth wide and looked at Alvin in surprise.

Alvin pressed his forehead against Ginny’s head with a smile, and said, “Look, dad is different, and Ginny is Alvin’s daughter.
We are different from everyone else.”

Ginny smiled innocently, enjoying Alvin’s intimacy, and nodded desperately, “Ginny, Dad, different from others.”

Alvin touched Ginny’s nose affectionately and waved away the Poison Creeper. He put Ginny on the ground and patted her head, “Dad change clothes, dad takes Ginny to buy clothes, okay?”

Ginny looked at Alvin and smiled, “Ginny wants dad, not clothes.”

In his last life, he saw a fat son who wanted everything.
Compared with Ginny, he was not on the same level at all.

Alvin slipped a new plaid shirt over his body, a grey jacket, and a pair of dark blue jeans, looking like a northern farmer overall. Very earthy, very simple, but also very practical. Putting a baseball cap on Ginny’s head, he said with a smile, “Let’s go, my princess.” Holding her little hand, he ran downstairs.

When he got downstairs, he found that the people in the restaurant were almost gone.
There was only a middle-aged man with a beard, sitting in the corner with a downhearted face, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, it was hard to tell what he was thinking. This was none of Alvin’s business.
This was a restaurant.
If you like to sit then sit.
Alvin, who was in a good mood and asked Jessica to serve this man a beer.
Judging from his expression, beer was better than coffee.

Then he smiled and said to Jessica, “Follow me, the boss will give you benefits and buy you clothes.”

Jessica, who had just delivered a glass of beer to the middle-aged man, cheered and screamed, and asked, “Going to Seventh Avenue?”

Alvin touched his pocket and thought for a while, “Let’s go to the 27th block, Shirley’s ready-to-wear store.”

Jessica let out a disappointed “oh”, but soon became happy.
After all, the boss gave her a gift, didn’t he? She quickly took off her apron and jumped out with Alvin with her hands behind her back.

Alvin stood at the door with Ginny in his arms and explained to old Kent, “Old Kent, call two guys, clean up the attic, and move all our Mr.
Nick Castle’s things into the attic.
Mr.
Custer has been wanting to move into the attic for a long time, this time I’ll let him do it.
Because our little princess needs his room.
And I’ll ask old Juan to get a set of furniture for our little princess.
I want it in pink, have it done by bedtime tonight.”

Old Kent happily agreed, took the nonexistent hat, and bowed and saluted, “I’m happy to serve you, Her Royal Highness!” After waving to a few young people, he went to the second floor of the restaurant.

No one noticed that when Alvin mentioned Nick, the depressed middle-aged man’s expression was a strange mixture of “guilt”, “desire” and “fear”. When he heard that Alvin was going to drive Nick to the attic, he was angry, and he was happy when he heard that the attic was Nick’s wish. It seemed that Nick’s joys and sorrows always touched his heart. Hearing Alvin proudly showing off his daughter, he was extremely envious.

After letting JJ take good care of Jason the black boy, he got into the car, pulled Ginny and Jessica in, turned in a circle, and drove to the “Sherry Garment Store” a block away, which specializes in all kinds of women’s clothes.
Of course, female children’s clothes were also available.

The proprietress Shirley was a beautiful woman in her forties.
Although she was not dressed luxurious, she was always dressed refined.
A little carefully matched cheap accessories can always make her look radiant. Alvin could see that this was a woman with a story. But this had nothing to do with Alvin.
Entering the store, Alvin waved his hand and gestured to Jessica boldly, “Buy what you want.”

The proprietress laughingly stopped Alvin’s country bumpkin behavior.
First, she pulled Jessica to pick out a few outfits for Ginny and tried them on.

Princess dress, beautiful, get one set for each color!

Sportswear, beautiful, a set of pink, yellow, and green!

………………

T-shirt with suspenders and jeans, plus a denim jacket, it’s so handsome, along with a baseball cap, it’s great! Alvin bumped fists with Ginny and stood with her in front of the big mirror happily. The two looked like a father and daughter, and they didn’t look weird because of their different skin colors.

Seeing that Ginny liked it very much, Alvin, who liked it, even more, waved his hand and ordered ten sets.

All the other shoes, socks, underwear, pajamas, etc.
were all bought with Jessica’s help.

After that, Jessica’s treatment of picking clothes was much worse.

Denim shorts and cropped short sleeves, “Boss, do I look good?”

“It’s not hot, so why do you show your belly?”

Floral mini skirt, “What about this one?”

“Why are the skirts so short, aren’t your legs cold?”

Jeans and T-shirt, “This one?”

“Well, it’s good, just these, two sets!”

Jessica rushed to Alvin angrily and complained, “Boss, you are going too far.
This is what I wore when I came.”

Alvin was stunned for a moment, “It’s pretty good-looking, let’s get a few more sets to wear.”

Jessica angrily stomped on Alvin’s feet, turned around, and said to the proprietress Shirley, “Except for this one, wrap everything else up, and two more sets in different colors.
All are on the boss’s account.”

Girl, is it really okay for you to add drama to yourself like this?

Not offending a woman when she was angry, was the experience that Alvin exchanged with blood and tears in his previous life.
‘For the sake of helping my daughter choose clothes, I will bear with you.’

Under Jessica’s snickering, he pinched his nose to avoid tearing up and paid the money, which was not too expensive, just a bit more than nine hundred dollars in total. ‘Hmm.
When I get rich, I will take my daughter out and stroll around the first few avenues.’
