Dusk In Moorea

HR#73

After hearing Ronald's story, Frederick decides to meet Leon. In front of his nephew's room, Frederick knocked on the door slowly. There was no answer, so Frederick decided to enter without permission.

The atmosphere of the spacious bedroom was so dark. Frederick pressed the light switch near the door and found his nephew curled up on the bed blankly.

"Leon ! What's going on ?" admonish Frederick with a concerned tone.

Feeling familiar with the voice that now asked him, Leon decided to turn his head and found the figure of Frederick standing on the edge of the bed with his humble shade face.

"Uncle !" it was Leon who immediately got up and hugged Frederick so tightly.

"Haha.... Don't be so tight, Son ! I couldn't breathe" Frederick laughed.

"Sorry, Uncle ! I'm too happy to see Uncle here" Leon apologized as he took off his arms.

"What's wrong with your face ? Why do you look so pale ? You sick ?" ask Fred while cupping Leon's face. Pretending not to know anything when he already knows everything from Ronald.

Leon's smile suddenly receded. Replaced with a pushy gaze that so thrilled Frederick. Since when did his famous niece as a female heartbreak become this weak ?

"Say, Leon ! What's going on ?" Fred urged Leon to tell him with his own mouth. He wants to hear the full story from the source directly.

"What's wrong if I fall in love with a woman who's not from the top, Uncle ?" asked Leon with a soft look. Despair runs deeper into his soul. Almost tore Leon down to nothing.

Frederick took a breath. If asked who understood Leon's feelings the most at this time, it was him. Why ? Because Frederick's story is exactly the same as the one Leon is currently experiencing. Falling in love with a girl regardless of status and ending with the blessing of her parents first.

"No. You are not wrong ! There is nothing wrong and right when it comes to love, Leon !" Frederick started to put on a serious face. He then led Leon to sit on the edge of the bed with his hands on his nephew's shoulders. Again, the man with the same hair color as Leon sighed.

"Then why do I have to go through this, Uncle ? Why can't I live with the people I love ? In fact, now the girl is gone. She chose to go back to her ex-husband in order to live with me" Leon said frustratedly. The young man grabbed his hair repeatedly while crying.

"Do you really love that girl ?" ask Fred again.

Leon turned his gaze from the floor towards Frederick who was sitting next to him. The brunette-haired young man laughed wryly.

"Do you think my Uncle who doesn't love him like this ?" Leon asked back.

Frederick smiled. He already knew what the answer to that question was.

"Don't worry ! If she was born to you, she will come back to you, Leon ! The so-called rib cage will never be confused with the property of others. You understand ?" Fred patted Leon's shoulder hard.

Leon just nodded. He didn't know what to react to. He wanted to believe in his uncle's words, but it also sounded too impossible to come true.

"You don't trust Uncle ?" Fred nudged Leon's shoulder with his shoulder.

"Is it possible if we are now even a different continent, Uncle ?"

"He's from Asia, Uncle ! In a country called Indonesia !" answer Leon.

Frederick coughed for a moment. The man choked on his own saliva after hearing Leon's words. Indonesia, Leon said ? Jesus ! That's far from what he expected. In vain was the advice of his mutiara words earlier. The name of the ribs that have been washed away by sea currents, will never return. All his poetic advice was useless. In fact, it sounds like a joke.

But, wait ? Didn't the ears hear wrong ? Leon said the Asian continent, right ? Okay. Frederick has found the cause. It is not caste differences that are the main problem in this regard. Except for something else.

"Then you better forget him" Frederick broke up later.

"What ? Did Uncle go crazy telling me to do that ?" Leon looked at Fred.

"You want how else ? The distance between you is too far. Not to mention, you said the woman wanted to go back to her ex-husband right ? That means you have no hope" Frederick said casually.

"Uncle ! Keep talking, Uncle !" Leon sizzled warned. "No one can have Aru but me. I am the only one who loves and loves Aru ! Not the others !"

"That's a ridiculous excuse, Leon ! You're the crazy one !"

"Yes. I've gone mad. And I think I'll be dead soon too, Uncle ! Life without Arumi really torments me !" leon said desperately.

"good. It's up to you. Do what you want !" Frederick came out of Leon's room. I don't want to continue this debate with his nephew. After tightly shutting the door to Leon's room back, Fred stepped towards the stairs with a slanted smile at the corner of his lips.

"You heard it, right ?" frederick asked someone who was waiting for him near the stairs.

Duke Xander turned to face his brother. The man's face was still flat with no expression.Aksi eavesdropped on him just now, apparently known by Frederick. You detective !

"You're really going to kill your son slowly, Xander ! Are you sure you won't regret it ?"

"What do you care, Fred ?" reply Duke Xander coldly.

"He's my nephew too. Of course I care about him. What's wrong if you just approve of Leon's relationship with the girl" said Fred no less cold.

Duke Xander gave a rude snort and chose to step down the stairs. Reluctant to continue the debate with Fred who certainly had a lot of bullets to bombard him.

"It's not our time anymore, Xander ! You should have been more wise to your son than our Daddy was !" frederick shouted, stopping Duke Xander's steps.

The cold man turned to look at his brother nyalang. His jaw tightened with anger.

"Know what are you ? Whatever I do now it's all for Leon's sake ! For her happiness ! You who can only run from responsibility in the past have no right to comment on my decision" cried Duke Xander.

"Oh yeah ? really ? So now you want to blame me for your own wrong decision ?" Fred is clearly not losing.

Duke Xander. He chose to make his ears look deaf and continued his steps. The past is done. There's no point in the story getting back in touch with what's happening now.
