Dusk In Moorea

HR#19

Leon was stunned to see the face of the beautiful girl in front of him who was now cleaning the wound on the back of his hand that had been scratched. The girl occasionally blew a small nose wound Leon.With painstakingly the girl also applied red medicine using a cotton bud then pasted a wound plaster on it. Make the man who owns the wound feel flowery like he just found love.

"Why did you stop ?" Leon asked shortly after Arumi let go of his hand.

"What ?" The girl asked back.

"Cure me."

"It's over, Leon. You don't see ?" Arumi exclaimed as he looked at the back of Leon's hand that had been wrapped in plaster on the entire wound.

The man looked at the back of his hand and then chuckled a little afterwards. So seriously he looked at the face of the Asian girl in front of him, he did not realize that his wound was finished in the treatment.

"Say ! How did you find me ?" Ask Arumi later. The girl ventured to break the silence that had filled the gap between her and Leon. He turned to Leon beside him who was now both facing forward, enjoying the view of the late afternoon sky by the side of the Seine river. One of the most romantic places in Paris and a must-see destination for travelers visiting the fashionable and historic city.

"Entai ! I don't know." Reply Leon with a soft tone of voice. His bead of eyes still looked at the view of the Seine river in front of him with complete calmness.

Arumi chuckled lightly at Leon's reply. She felt that the man must have once again been lying to her.

But the truth is Leon is not lying at all. He does not know why he found Arumi after the last two months he has almost given up and decided to be sincere and forget Arumi forever. And, when he had truly made up his mind, he finds the girl he's been looking for walking out of a boutique right in front of Leon waiting for Zack to buy food at the store next door.

A coincidence to Leon is destiny. He was sure that Arumi might really have a predestined attachment to him in the future. It was that belief that dragged Leon's steps following Arumi and in the end without a second thought directly approached the girl.

"It's late, I have to get home before Charlie and his parents come looking for me." Arumi said while standing up.

"Want me to take it ?" Leon stood up.

"no need. I can take a taxi myself." Geleng Arumi fast. Do not let Leon drive her or Charlie will bombard her with questions that will be difficult for Arumi to answer.

"You sure ?"

"I'm sure, Leon." Reply Arumi lightly.

Shortly after, Leon's phone rang. Immediately in his lift when he saw the name Zack on the flat object screen. Leon closed his eyes. How could he forget the existence of Zack who was certainly confused looking for him everywhere ?

"Yes, Zack ?"

"Hey, young master ! Why just picked up your phone, huh ? Do you know how long I've been around looking for you ?" The sound of Zack's tirade made Leon grimace in guilt.

"Sorry, buddy ! I forgot you." Leon replied guiltily.

"Forget me ? That's right, Leon ! What are you looking at so you can forget about me ordering pizza for you, huh ?"

"Hey, what does that mean ?"

"Already ! you're too chatty, Zack ! I'll explain later." Leon immediately cut off the phone unilaterally.

"I'll take you to the front to book a cab." Leon said to Arumi, putting his phone back in his jacket pocket.

"All right." Replied Arumi obediently. He lost the strength to argue with Leon. Thus, making peace and obeying the whims of that strange man was the thing he had to do at this moment.

Arriving on the side of the highway, Leon stopped a taxi that happened to be there immediately. Deftly, he immediately opened the car door for Arumi and allowed the girl to enter. Before closing the car door again, Leon asks for Arumi's phone first. He had almost forgotten the most important thing about their meeting.

"Give me your phone !" Pinta Leon with outstretched hands.

"For what ?"

Leon clucking. "Already ! Just get it, Aru !"

Not wanting to argue long, Arumi obeyed Leon's request. He handed her the flat object he had just robbed from inside his bag with a feeling of wonder.

The man appears to be pressing a button on Arumi's phone screen deftly, then dialing a number that turns out to be his own. After connecting, he reached into the phone from his pocket and kept Arumi's number somehow with what name in there.

"What time do you usually go home from work ?"

"Hour 5pm." Answer Arumi plain.

"OKAY. I'll call you tomorrow afternoon after you get home from work. We'll take a walk to continue my delayed mission in Moorea." Again Leon smiled, held out Arumi's phone back to the owner and closed the car door.

He tells the taxi driver to walk immediately before Arumi can protest at Leon's unilateral decision to take him for a walk tomorrow.

While grumbling indistinctly, Arumi stared at the screen of her phone. His frustration culminated when he read the name of what Leon wrote to keep his contacts on Arumi's phone earlier. It was written there with a large capital letter 'CALON BOYFRIEND' that made Arumi half-dead refrain from exploding.

What do you want that guy ? Why should he come back after I've forgotten all about him. I thought, my dream about Leon is over, it turns out that dream will still continue and it looks like it will last longer.

Arumi bowed in. As much as possible master the heart to not really fall into the charm of a Leon Wyatt Wellington that will only make Arumi hurt later. Uncle Charles had advised a few days ago, that Arumi should not fall in love with a man with a high caste or he would only suffer much more misery.

Arumi knows enough to interpret what the implied meaning of Charles's uncle message is. He knew that a commoner like himself would be impossible to match up with a noble like Leon even if the man really sincerely loved Arumi.

So, what should Aru do ? Avoiding Leon is not a good idea either. The reason is, if he wants to do that, then he must stop from the boutique Miss Nastya because Leon already knows she works there. Huh ! This matter would be even more complicated if Arumi could not limit her feelings for the man to just make friends.

Don't fall in love with her, Aru ! Or you'll just get hurt later.

Arumi sighed then cast her gaze towards the window. Enjoying the night view of the city of Paris is so beautiful to just give comfort to the heart that began to falter again just because of the presence of the young man the owner of a loose smile that he met on the island of Moorea.
