ASSISTANT CULUN

Chapter 36. Wait for Me

Waiting for the rabbit meat to ripen, Abigail told Darren and Trias everything. Once Abigail thought, there was no point in lying anymore. Darren must know the real situation, so that he can increase alertness.

"The sketch of my face and my name goes into the contract offered by someone to the hit men." Abigail began her explanation with eyes that kept staring into the blazing flames.

"The value is very high, it will even get a big bonus if the executor can kill me right before the presidential election." His impression was still with a glaring gaze.

Abigail hugged her own body. Remembering the details of the contract made him feel claustrophobic. It was as if his body was squeezed by a large rock. And if he wants to feel freedom, he has to solve this problem as soon as possible 

"Besides me, there's also a contract on Darren's behalf. But the contract can only be done if I'm dead. So as long as I'm alive, you'll be alive." This time Abigail looked at Darren.

Abigail's tongue is twisted. There is a sense of pity that arises considering that Darren has just escaped the terror of Brody and Rosaline. Now the young man must face another terror.

On the other hand, Abigail's calm gaze, made Darren confident that they would be able to get through this matter safely.

"So that's what made you run away from me?"

Abigail nodded in response to Darren's question. The young man took a deep breath.

"I will become stronger until you don't have to worry about me."

Abigail smiled, Darren who now looks much different than when they first met. It seemed that now the young man was filled with positive energy.

"I'd be worried if you were too energy-forsed for training."

Abigail's words suddenly made Darren and Trias look at the girl. And the gazes of the two young men before him made Abigail realize, she had spoken wrongly.

Abigail cursed her stupidity that was too carried away so that she could not control her tongue. As soon as the sign reveals what is in his heart.

"At least my feelings don't clap one hand." Darren said with a happy face. Makes Abigail's face hot.

"I think cupid is the master of this forest. The scent of love fills the air." Seloroh Triassic. If you were here, I wouldn't be so excited to see this new couple. Triassic complained in his heart.

Everything went back to silence, until Trias broke the silence with his meat-handling activities.

"Forget all that trouble. Come eat. Even if it will die, it must die full." Trias' words were greeted with amused smiles of Abigail and Darren.

Abigail opened the backpack and pulled out some drinks that she was carrying. "Where are the agents guarding you?"

"So I told him to wait while he was going to finish his private business. Then we saw the movement of the shadow. We didn't expect you to be staking out the camp." Trias looked in all directions.

"But he seems to know first, so ever since you two fought and walked away, he's not following us anymore." Clear Trias.

The three of them enjoyed Abigail's hunting meat very voraciously. Moreover, time has shown almost midnight.

"So, how long do you live here?" Darren could no longer hold back his curiosity. After they finished eating, he immediately asked.

Abigail also realized that. Especially after he heard the fact that Abigail's life was threatened. Darren would have wanted to know more about their plan. But Abigail kept hold of the principle Micah taught, the less she knew the better. And Abigail did not want to violate that even though the one who asked was the young man who had already managed to fill her heart.

"Until a time that cannot be determined." Abigail answered and then took a sip of her mineral water.

"What are your plans?"

Abigail laughed. "Sorry, but it's a secret."

Darren looks disappointed, but he can accept Abigail's answer.

"I want to accompany you here." Wiry of the young man.

Abigail smiled, wanting to say yes. But that word is impossible to say.

"Don't make the dirty work of criminals easier. Go home, and increase alertness. I'll definitely give you some news."

Darren looked at Abigail with a sad and hurt look. He has dragged the girl he loves into trouble that threatens the safety of his soul.

"I'm sorry I got you this far."

Abigail smiled. "It's been a risk to my job."

"I'm going to work hard, so in the future you don't have to worry anymore about work and financial matters."

Abigail blinked a few times. Darren's words contain a meaning that is able to make the girl back pounding. But Abigail did not want to guess or ask directly. He was afraid that he would lose focus if he heard Darren's answer.

Abigail wanted to tell me about her resignation. But looking at the current situation, Abigail felt it was not the right time to tell that.

"It's late." Abigail said as she stared at Darren and Trias in turn. "It looks like the crew's resting." Imbuh Abigail after looking towards Darren's camp using binoculars.

"Didn't they know you two were out?" Abigail asked again as she turned her body around again.

"No, they don't know." Answer Trias. "Otherwise, this rabbit won't be enough for all of us."

Abigail gave a small laugh and started packing. Darren went and helped the girl.

"I'll take you home." Darren said after they cleared Abigail's backpack.

"No need, you guys go back. Don't you have to get up early tomorrow because you're going to take a picture of the sunrise?" Reject Abigail as well as remind Darren schedule that was told Trias on the sidelines of their dinner.

"But the cabin where you live is still far away from Abi." Darren looks very worried.

A moment later an object like a motor with wheels that had propellers in its center floated close to them. The object has a shape like a combination of a drone and a motor.

"My vehicle has arrived."

Micah does provide a means of transportation that can be used in an emergency. The flying vehicle can be controlled by Abigail directly or remotely as Micah does today.

Abigail approached the flying motor, placed her backpack and rifle on a specially prepared box to put the belongings. He turned to face Darren and Trias. Deep down, he still wanted to be with the two young men.

No, not the two young men, rather he still wanted to be with Darren.

Abigail lowered her head and smiled wryly. Then he lifted his face and went back to Darren and Trias.

"Don't forget the fire, we don't want this forest to burn, do we?"

Trias chuckled and approached Abigail. "I'll make sure the fire goes out." He hugged Abigail for a moment. "I'm waiting to hear from you."

"Yes, brother, definitely."

Trias patted Abigail's shoulder a few times and then retreated backwards. Even the young man turned around, as if giving privacy to Darren who had not previously taken his eyes off Abigail.

Abigail looked at Darren who was getting closer with a thumping chest. He seemed to be hypnotized by Darren's gaze so that he could not turn his face away.

"I love you."

Darren said solemnly. Her bead eyes stared straight into Abigail's eyes, making the girl feel Darren's love statement plunge straight into her heart. Creates a warm sigh that begins in the chest and then spreads throughout the body.

The young man's right hand stretched out and rubbed Abigail's cheek very gently. No rejection, Abigail even closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth of Darren's hand on her cheek with lips that continued to comment on her sweet smile.

Darren brought his face closer, and immediately put a kiss on Abigail's lips. Her hand was no longer on the girl's cheek but was on Abigail's slender waist and pulled the girl to her body.

Abigail kept her face away until the link of her lips came off. Then he buried his face in Darren's chest. Enjoying the young man's embrace.

"Wait for me." Abigail half-whispered.

"Surely." Darren kissed Abigail's head repeatedly before finally breaking their arms.

There was a sense of unwillingness in Abigail's heart as her body no longer felt the warmth of Darren's embrace. But he realized, it was time for them to return to reality.

Abigail rushed around and boarded the flying motor. He strengthened his heart so that he would not look back. Because he was so sure, if he turned around and saw Darren's face, he wouldn't be able to get out of there.

The bike moved as soon as Abigail put a seatbelt around her waist. Leaving behind Darren who was fixated with both hands clenched on both sides of his body. Resisting pain in the chest.
