It Turns Out They're an Extraordinary Duo

Chapter 23 Gossip

"Arion?" ask the woman who owns the shop.

"Yes Mom. Did you know her?" ask Adelio back to the owner of the stall.

"Are you looking for Arion who works as a security at one of those private banks?" ask the owner of the shop again to Adelio.

The handsome young man smiled and nodded his head, confirming the question of the owner of the stall and saying,

"Yes, right ma'am. He's the Arion I'm looking for. Did you know her?"

"I definitely know Mas. He's Mr. Fabian's son with his first wife. However, on the day of her death, there was a woman carrying Arion like her own baby. He also lives in that house. A few days after Arion's funeral, the woman married Mr. Fabian. Be that woman now her mother" the shop owner replied in detail.

Adelio smiled stiffly at the story of the owner of the stall. In his heart he said,

His family seems to have problems. I hope Adelia doesn't have any problems with them. Maybe this has been bothering me all this time? Does the woman who became her mother have anything to do with the death of her biological mother Arion?

"This handsome guy what's Arion? Her friend?" asked the owner of the stall while smiling flirtatiously at Adelio.

"Emmm... Not Ma. I just want to look-"

"Did Arion run away with Mas's handsome stuff?" ask the woman who owns the shop.

"Emmm... That, she-"

"Definitely the new bike? After all, where did he get the money from to buy such a good motorbike? They never even get along with their neighbors. Especially Arion's mother, she seems afraid of being asked the same kinds of mothers here. Ever since he came to this place, he had never been out of the house alone. She was always with her husband. Actually they also married because the citizens who threatened to expel him if they are not married, while they are already living at home," said the woman like to give information gossip in her place of residence.

Adelio sighed. He did not expect to get more information about the Arion family from his neighbors. Even now there are many women who chimed in the words of the owner of the stall. Now, Adelio is very similar to mothers who are gossiping in the shop.

After a while, he noticed the movements of his twin brother from his phone screen. Soon he paid for his food and said goodbye to the women who had invited him to gossip. With his speed, Adelio immediately left the stall and hid somewhere he felt safe.

That's exactly what Adelio is saying. He sees Arion hugging Adelia through her hiding place. Once felt safe, Adelio immediately came out of hiding and rode his motorcycle to pursue Arion.

As usual, from a safe distance Adelio followed them. With his ability and experience, he was able to feel things according to what his heart felt. Moreover, it is currently concerning his twin brother. He'll intervene by himself to take care of her.

Arion motor is traveling at a slow speed. It seems like he did it on purpose in order to be able to stay with Adelia longer. Even Adelia's two hands were forced by her to circle around her waist.

Adelio sighed to see Arion who took Adelia's hand forcibly and placed it on her waist. Adelia did take her hand back from Arion's waist, but at that very moment, Arion made her motor falter, so that the front of Adelia's body was perfectly attached to her back. Not only that, Adelia reflexively hugged Arion's waist tightly.

"Damn it! How dare he do that to my sister. It seems like I can't let Adelia just be alone with her" Adelio said from inside her full-faced helmet.

Adelia would take off her tightly coiled hand at Arion's waist, but the owner of the waist wouldn't let her. Her hand held the fingers of Adelia's hand, so the beautiful girl could not let go of her embrace.

Re-imposed by Adelia. He did not let go of Arion's waist which he hugged tightly due to his reflex movements.

As for Arion, he smiled satisfied with what he was doing. She already knew Adelia's weakness so kindly that she used it to take her sympathy and would not let go.

Adelia also advances her head, precisely her lips are next to the helmet part of Arion's ear. Then he said,

"I'm going straight home."

"But it's still afternoon, honey. We can go somewhere else" said Arion, eager to keep Adelia with him.

"It was still that afternoon, I wanted to go home. I'm sick, I want to take a shower and change clothes. Besides I'm so tired, I want to sleep after this" said Adelia who tried to subtly resist Arion's wishes.

Arion could not speak anymore. He was silent as if he was following Adelia's will. However, he still tried to make sense for Adelia to stay with him for a longer time.

"Darling, how about we go to the park?" ask Arion to his girlfriend.

"Well? I want to go home, sultry, I want to take a shower" Adelia replied firmly rejecting her.

"In the park we can eat ice cream and talk. Many people sell food and other things. Usually crowded in the park if this afternoon," Arion persuaded back, as if not tired of trying to change Adelia's decision to go home.

"Arion, I want to get home now. I no longer want to go to the park," Adelia said with a sigh holding back the frustration of her new boyfriend.

Seeing that there was a flower stall on the side of the road he passed by, Arion stopped right in front of the flower stall. Adelia frowned and said,

"Here's the stop here Arion?"

"I want to buy flowers for you" replied Arion, smiling sweetly at her lover.

"Make what? I no longer want to shove. Let's just go home, I'm tired" Adelia said with a slight annoyance.

Hearing the rejection from Adelia, Arion did not dare to go back to persuade her. Their trial date was only one month. He didn't want their relationship to last just one week.

Without saying anything else, Arion immediately drove his bike towards Adelia's house. Just a few minutes, the bike arrived in front of Adelia's house.

"Till here Arion. I'm sorry, I'm going to take a shower and rest. See you tomorrow" Adelia said before she ran into her house.

Arion looked at Adelia's missing back nanar, as if swallowed by a very sturdy fence of her house.

"It's usual Arion, don't give up. Hasn't there been a lot of progress between the two of you? You have to be enthusiastic and never give up" said Lirih Arion encouraging himself.

After that he returned home with a slightly hollow feeling accompanying him. The path he walked felt different. When he was with Adelia, the streets felt colorful. However, now the road feels empty when passed alone.

Elsewhere, precisely at Arion's house, Intan again looked at his photo together with Adelia. He looked at the photo while scrunched his forehead and his hand tried to enlarge the photo, until it was very clear all parts of Adelia's face. He also said,

"It looks like Adelia's face is similar to someone's. But who?"
