Dusk In Moorea

Jealousy 2

Leon's eyes flashed with anger with his hands still tightly clenched to look at the man who was now sitting on the floor with a bloody nose due to his actions. His breathing rang so fast that his shoulders also went up and down along with the breath he did. His eyes then turned to the girl beside him who still looked so shocked by the incident just now.

"Are you okay ?" Leon asked with concern. Both of his hands cupped Arumi's cheeks while stroking her slowly.

"I'm fine." Replied Arumi nodded. He was still looking at the stranger who a few minutes ago forced him to come out and ended up with a bloody nose because of Leon.

"Don't bother him anymore, or you'll get in more trouble than this." Leon's full of threats.

The foreign man stood up while wiping the blood that was still coming out of his nose. He laughed sarcastically as he stared defiantly at Leon.

"You're threatening me ? It is precisely you who should be afraid because I will report this to the police."

"Police ?"

"Yes. Cops."

"Leon. How is this ?" Little Arumi was worried. He clutched Leon's arm in fear.

Leon rubbed Arumi's hand holding onto his sturdy arm then displayed the smile he used to give to the girl. As if to say that everything will be fine.

He then turned back to look at the man. Little chuckles so casually with the hand he hid behind the pocket of the brown coat he was wearing.

"Aren't you the one who should have been reported to the police for coercing my lover ?"

Arumi who heard it instantly became shocked. With Grace, who stood not far from them. Did Leon approach her just to make her lover jealous ? Br*that's a guy.

"Just do. I'm not scared. Both of us will be arrested, but only you will end up behind bars." The stranger smirked. I feel like he is the winner in this.

The people who witnessed not even one dared to interfere and chose to become spectators.

"Oh yeah ?" Leon's eyebrows shot up.

"Yes. Just so you know ! My father was the chief of police in this region. And everyone in this area, no one has ever dared to look for trouble with me."

Leon took a long breath. He then pulled Arumi's hand out of the cafe. But, before he opened the cafe exit, he turned back and said. " Just report it. Don't forget, send the arrest warrant to Duke Xander Wellington's residence. I'm sure you and everyone in this town already know where the address is." Bright Leon relaxed.

His hand opened the door. However, he turned back and continued his sentence earlier. "Don't forget, say that the arrest warrant was for Duke Xander's son, Leon Wyatt Wellington. Write it out loud, so my father can read it clearly." Kept at Leon while blinking one eye.

The stranger just kept quiet and said nothing. He then looked around before rushing out of the cafe, not long after Leon and Arumi were out of sight. He knew exactly which way the case was going. Let it be, like the wind that passes or even his father will be in trouble if he dares to report Duke Xander's only son. He knows enough to not deal with a powerful person like them or he will be the one who will self-destruct.

"Leon ! Release !" Arumi shrieked in pain as Leon continued to drag her along while walking in a hurry.

"I said, let go of me Leon !" Arumi was still struggling and hit Leon's hand which clutched his hand firmly.

"Leon !"

Finally the man let go of his grip so violently that Arumi staggered forward. They had arrived at a place, by the river with benches that seemed to be lined up along the way. Leon punched the iron barrier of the river furiously.

"Leon, what are you doing ?" Strangled Arumi while trying to block out Leon's foolish actions that would hurt himself.

"You alone, what are you doing ?" Leon's screams are still very emotional.

Arumi did not even expect the change in emotions as calm as the water that Leon had displayed in the Cafe, could turn this drastic in just a matter of seconds.

"I'm trying to stop you." Reply Arumi shouted back. He could not bear to see the man's knuckle which now began to look flushed due to blisters.

"Not now, Aru ! I mean earlier. What are you doing, ha ?" Once again Leon snapped at Arumi.

"Don't you know that your actions are dangerous ? Why do you let a foreign man sit with you so easily ? You want to make me jealous ? You think that's a funny thing ? What if I get angry and leave you ? Can you imagine what that man would do to you ? Answer Aru !" Leon is still in a state of emotional control. He doesn't even know why he's this angry. But to be sure, he is not willing if another man touches the Asian girl he really wants to have.

"You started it, Leon !" Arumi said back to snarl. Her tears had already escaped due to Leon's baseless anger at her.

"I ?"

"Yes. You're. Didn't you leave me alone and sit down with Grace ? Then, if you can sit with a foreign woman, why can't I do it with a foreign man too ? Besides, how do I know that he's gonna make me leave like I did." Arumi said sobbing.

The girl then turned her back to Leon while trying to wipe away her tears. In any case, Arumi is not willing if Leon blames himself for this.

Leon sighed faintly while rearranging his once chaotic emotional order. Just this time he got out of control and vent emotions so vividly his whole life. For the size of a young man who must grow up under pressure and strict rules from his father, Leon has never been entitled to protest let alone anger as he does now.

For Leon's entire life, he's just always harbored everything he wants to do and chose silence. But today, for the first time Leon came out of the box that had been limiting it. He knew that only Arumilah could make him really comfortable to vaporize anything he could not do.

"I'm sorry ! I was wrong !" Leon's speech was soft. Her hands were coiled around Arumi's slender waist from behind with her head resting on the girl's shoulders before her.

"Don't cry, Aru ! Please !" She begged.

"You're scolding me !" Replied Arumi sobbing. His hand tried to take off the man's embrace. However, what happened was that the man's embrace was getting stronger as his head was getting drowned in the niche of Arumi's neck.

"I'm jealous, Aru ! Please don't do that in front of me again."

Arumi's punch weakened and finally stopped. Leon's soft words that sound so earnestly make Arumi's heart seem to shake again. What does this man have that Arumi feels pounding when he says he's jealous ? Or is it Arumi, who falls in love too easily ?
