Amelie the Keeper of the Soul

BYE BYE

"Vin, what about our company in Italy?" leon asked Alvin, his personal assistant.

"Everything is good and still under control. Do you intend to go there?"

"No, it's more in need of attention in the moment anyway."

"You're right."

"Then, how to cooperate with Mr. Jang's? Have you got the certainty?"

"Mrs. Jang has returned to Korea. I also contacted his personal assistant. They said they'd re-learn the proposal we've been given and they'd tell us as soon as possible."

"alright. Then I'll go home early. Today Mommy's having dinner. Come along, Vin," take Leon.

"Ishhh, don't want to! I'm afraid of your Mommy. Miranda Sebastian .. hearing her name just feels like my body is shaking," said Alvin shuddering in horror, making Leon laugh.

Leon knows exactly why Alvin rarely plays at home, especially if not the nature of his Mommy who always wants to match every single man who comes to the house.

"Are you going to be back this time?" ask Alvin.

"No, no, not me. But Mikael."

"Whattt??? Mikael hasn't graduated from college, though he should have."

"Mikael still likes to play, but he's a smart kid. He likes to think everything will go according to his plan. He doesn't want to live with the burden."

"Will he accept this match, Len (the call of Leon between his family and best friend)?"

"Oh yeah, but this morning he looked a little nervous, not like he used to."

"I hope he can pass this test" Alvin said, cupping his hands in front of his face.

"You really don't want to come? Mommy would love to see you" asked Leon once more.

"I'm starting to get suspicious ... Don't you want to make me fall if Mikael refuses this match?"

Leon smiled slightly and Alvin knew exactly that what he was asking was right, "Based on lucknut friends!! I'd like to go home, too, then" Alvin walked out of Leon's room with the file signed by his boss and best friend.

"Emil, how are you?" Miranda greets her high school best friend Emily, while her husband greets Danu Mahaprana, Emily's husband.

"Wow, is this Leon?" asked Emily as she approached Leon who was standing up to greet his parents' friends. Mikael just sat down and folded his hands in front of his chest.

"Mik! greet Uncle Danu and Aunty Emily quickly" Miranda ordered.

With annoyance, Mikael did as well.

"And this must be Daniela," Miranda approached the beautiful looking Daniela in a navy blue dress.

They start their dinner, while having a little chat about their friendship.

"So ... How about Em, you agree right?" ask Miranda.

"I agree, but it's up to them" replied Emily.

"Mik, you take Ela out first. You should know each other."

"Mom!!!" looks like an upset face. Mikael actually does not care much about this matchmaking, because he is sure that he will be a heavy mate. But, since what he had experienced with Lydia, his heart started to worry.

Mikael finally went out with Daniela to the park in the front yard of the restaurant.

"Eh kudanil! don't think I agree with this match. I just follow my desire. So don't go to GR an" Mikael looked at Daniela with a cynical look.

At first Daniela didn't want to make trouble, but seeing Mikael upset her, she ended up feeling annoyed, "Eh mackerel! You think I want what? Really males!!"

Without saying much, Daniela immediately left Mikael who saw her in astonishment. While in the restaurant,

"Don't Leon have a girlfriend?" ask Emily.

"Sorry Aunty, Leon hasn't got one yet and hasn't thought in that direction. Leon's career is more focused."

"Aren't you planning on getting Leon, Mir?" ask Emily.

Miranda glanced slightly at Leon and instantly gained a sharp glare. Miranda knew that Leon would not hesitate to leave Sebastian's family if he did so. Why Miranda is so afraid of losing Leon, as Leon once fled abroad.

"No Em. If it's for Leon, I'll give him his freedom. After all, he had to replace Larry to take care of the company. I'm more worried about Mikael, the kid is more unruly" Miranda said.

"What's up, baby? Do you have a problem with Mikael?"

Not wanting to be considered complaining, Daniela made another excuse, "My stomach hurts, Mom."

"You sick? Mir, I'll take Ela home first yeah," Emily and Danu finally say goodbye. The newly re-entered Mikael realizes that the Mahaprana Family is no longer there.

Well they're home. At least the matchmaking talks stopped. I really am a heavy soul mate. Thanks Amel. - Mikael.

The next day, the,

"So, where are you going?"

"To the City Park. Wanna come?"

"Males ah's. Want to lie down at home," Mikael replied while putting chips in his mouth while watching television.

"Sister go first, yes" with a bag, Leon walked out of the house, got in the car, and left.

In the City Park, a girl was sitting with a canvas in front of her, a watercolor board in her left hand, and a brush in her right hand. He occasionally turned his face, peering over the canvas to see what was in front of him.

Amelie often sat alone, looking for a place to pour her hand in a canvas. This time, his steps came to a halt as he passed through the City Park. He watched the passerby, then scratched back the watercolor on his canvas.

seklekk ... seklekk ....

Without Amelie noticing, a camera captures her current activity. A smile that appeared behind the camera continued to form watching the girl slash her brush onto the canvas.

He walked up to Anelie, who was sitting alone on a rock band that surrounded a large tree.

"Hi" said Leon.

"Hi" said Amelie.

"May I sit here?"

"Of course, please."

"You're a painter?" ask Leon.

"Ooo no, it's just a hobby" replied Amelie.

"But your painting is good."

"Thank you."

"May I take your picture?" Leon starts pointing his camera at Amelie.

"Are you a photographer?"

"Ooo no, it's just a hobby" replied Leon who made Amelie laugh, because he knew the man was turning his words around.

"I introduce you, my name is Leon" Leon thrusts his hand at Amelie.

"Amelia."

"A pretty name, as pretty as the guy."

"Thank you" Amelie never paid attention to anyone else's praise of her. Amelie knows exactly what a man wants when he is close to a woman, which is why he does not want to be too close.

"Did you come here often?"

"No, I just follow where my feet step to find a place where I can paint."

"I know a good place. Next time I'll take you there if you want."

"no need. Maybe I will rarely leave after this, because I have to finish my final task," Amelie cleaned up her painting equipment, as the sky seemed to start to darken.

"I'll help you" Leon said as he cleared his canvas and tripod.

"Thank you, but I'll bring it myself. My car's not far from here. I'll say goodbye, see you later" Amelie leaves Leon, who can only now see Amelie's departure.

See you, and we'll meet again. - Leon.
