LEILA'S DREAM: Three Possibilities

S2 - CHAPTER 5: ARIA GREY (2)

Whoever he is.

He's not an ordinary man.

Aria kept thinking about Leila. Even when his village was flattened by the ground and I don't know who survived Aria. Even when he should be able to prevent his village from being attacked by a group of monsters. Aria wasn't there, and this is where she ended up in a jewelry store with her father, Robert Grey.

"What about this Aria? Do you like it? I'm sure you'll be a good fit."

Aria looked at the jewelry Robert pointed at. Looks dazzling and overrated.

"i reckon. I don't need to buy this necklace. Last year's gift was still good."

"Come, Aria. Just this time."

Seeing Robert giving a pleading gaze, of course, Aria could not refuse him, just could say yes and while waiting for Robert to take care of his jewelry. Aria was standing in front of the shop looking at the cityscape that was very clear to see everyone living in harmony here.

Aria was in one of the cities where from this distance she could see such a magnificent mansion far away. Although it looks very small, but Aria is sure she can still devise a plan to infiltrate. Aria also did not forget to pay attention around realizing that some knights were not lazing and carrying out patrol duties.

"Oh? Aria?"

Aria turned her head and saw the same woman she met in the forest. Leila approached him while carrying a basket that looked full.

"No, I forgot again," Leila grumbled involuntarily, "I'm sorry, I should have called you Miss and spoken politely."

"No, it's okay. We can talk in a relaxed manner, just calm down."

As Leila had expected. Aria has a kind personality. "Huft, okay. What are you doing here, by the way?" leila asked not to notice that Aria was standing in front of the jewelry store.

"Buying something with my father here."

"Count Grey? Wow, you got a caring dad, yeah."

Because in the story 'Everuz Golden River' Aria never spent time with her parents.

"Thank you, he's the greatest father I've ever had" Aria said at the end of a smile that Leila could understand.

"Yes, why don't you give something to your dad?"

"The only thing I know he likes is the writer Blue Felix, hahh... It's very difficult to make an appointment with her even asking the publisher for help just to ask for a signature is very difficult" complained Aria who wanted to give a gift what her father liked.

Leila who heard it seemed deaf for a moment. I don't know why most people he's asked why he likes it so much with his writing. It seemed like Leila had to give a good gift to Rion for being willing to help maintain her identity. Trusting his family is not wrong.

"How about making a poem or a cake. I'm sure whatever you give your father will take it."

"I'm not sure" said Aria as she felt the gift her father deserved was what she really wanted.

"Don't be sad, be excited." Leila patted Aria's back channeling her spirit.

"Thank you and... Do you live around here?" If true he could ask about Duke D'Arcy's territory.

"Yes, I live here and I just ran from a lunatic." Remembering the flashback of the incident earlier made Leila's hair immediately goosebumps.

"Crazy people? Is there a crazy person here?"

"To be more precise the words of someone who sounded so crazy."

"What did he say?"

Aria managed to make him remember the flashback a few hours ago.

"Leila, you want to marry me!"

Yes, it was Noah's voice with a nervous tone grasping both his hands.

Oh, just look at that bashful expression.

Who would have thought a person like Noah would make such an expression.

It's not in vain that he lived so long.

Leila just stared flatly at Noah which made her not want to answer him at all, but because she was her friend then she kindly replied to him.

"Rejected," said Leila with a wide smile with a cheerful aura that made Noah frozen to get the unexpected response.

"If you've met your Leila. You have to approach her instead of directly inviting her to marry," said Leila looking at Noah who seemed to have no experience of love, perhaps?

"Have you never dated before?" The famous genius should have understood at least this kind of simple thing.

Seeing Noah who was jolting silently. Leila already knew the answer. "Bright... It's gonna be tough. You're not Noah's experienced."

Leila felt lethargic to see Noah who was not unyielding at all. He was tired of all these experiments.

If Noah had not thought of the woman of the same name, Noah would have succeeded. Leila lied if she didn't feel her heart beating so hard that she could hear it herself.

We both lived so long. So, Leila knows how Noah feels. But, Leila is amazed by Noah who still survives to search for his Leila.

"Well, I've been." Previous life.

Noah looked at Leila confidently now and took Leila's hand slowly and looked at Leila until she could see the reflection of herself in his eyes.

"Leila... ."

Oh, naw.

"... I'm glad we finally met. I miss you."

Leila could only pensively look at Noah as if she could not believe what she had just seen and heard.

"I'm sorry, I already have a husband."

Noah immediately got a corner with a gloomy aura that made Leila unable to hold back her laughter.

"Evil."

"Kan, no one knows. It's practice. Just in case your Leila is married or maybe she could have just been born by now. Oh, you pedophile turned out to be Noah." Staring at Noah's disgust that looks increasingly unacceptable to his words.

"HEY! KEEP THAT WORD!"

After a small quarrel Leila chose to leave Noah and who would have thought if she would meet Aria again on the other side of Noah's territory.

Leila looked at Aria who looked beautiful in a dress like the noble ladies. Because most of Leila always describes Aria wearing a bone-white shirt that starts yellowing with a small vest. Where she wears protectors on both shoulders. The black gloves with some daggers he hid were covered in his boots or tied to his thighs. Even when his black mane that he usually ties a ponytail will be there at certain times he stalls. When Aria scrunches her hair the words of Ias will come true.

"My sister, she'll tie up any man in the world. If he shows her the female side."

Leila, that's right. Maybe one of the twins will be hooked. If that happens Leila will be supportive because her nature is already known to her.

Someone suddenly patted Leila on the shoulder. His survival instinct says he must run. But, it's too late. The man held his arm around his waist and pulled him closer until he hit a chest that felt very hard.

"Where are you going?" asked Noah looking at Leila who could just run away from his sight. Successfully made the woman silence a thousand languages did not want to look at him.

Noah, who had just realized that Leila was talking to someone, was watching them both. From his appearance he seemed to be from among the nobles, but which one?

"N-Noah. ." Leila's great-grandson who felt the time was not right for Noah made a rumor again. While trying to take off the man's arm which was even tighter hugging him.

It should be where Leila put this shameful face in front of her protagonist.

It was obvious that Leila's face looked extremely flushed due to the unbearable embarrassment. Moreover, Noah is not seen wearing his disguise.

STUPID NOAH!

Ahh, I just want to die.

Ding!

[ARE YOU SURE?]

OF COURSE NOT! IT'S JUST A FIGURATIVE!!

Noah looked at Aria who was staring back at him.

"Aria, I'm sorry to make you wait so long and, D-Duke D'Arcy?! I'm sorry I didn't notice you and... ."

Count Grey thinks the woman Duke is hugging seems to be his lover. Moreover, even the age of Noah was already three-headed, his face was still in the initial twenty. This one duke is famous for his youth as well.

"... Count Grey? Looks like you're shopping with your daughter, huh?"

Noah hears news of a Count raising a child and he respects all the decisions of the nobility, especially people like Robert Grey.

Robert smiled when someone talked about his adopted daughter, "Yes, introduce yourself, Aria."

Aria lifted her dress up a bit and began to salute the person higher in rank than her father, "Aria Grey, it's an honor to meet you, Duke D'Arcy." It ended with the charming smile that Aria gave. Even Leila who saw him was fascinated. Leila turned to look at Noah's reaction, but what she got was a faint change in her net color. Although it was only an instant, Leila was aware of it.

Did Noah see if Aria also got a blessing or what might this be like Leila thought?
