Little Bride Alvaro
129. Tracking a New Place



Paris, a city famous for its beauty and romance is now being visited. This is his dream, continuing to study in the country of France which is used as a mecca of world fashion trends, hoping to get a lot of knowledge as the provision of his future.


He is not alone, as someone believed to be Sean Paderson's foster brother has been with him while there. Lu Leon, a mature Chinese-faced man is assigned by Sean to take care of Azlina's needs there.


"It's over?" The man asked after seeing Azlina out of his apartment unit.


The woman nodded, then tried to greet the man in front of her. "City ...."


"No, no, no! Just Leon, right!" Uncle's call was too old. A Leon might be called an uncle. "We're leaving now!"


Azlina, according to her, tailed behind the man named Leon. In accordance with what his brother, Salwa, said, if Leon had prepared all the needs of Azlina while in Paris. Starting from the apartment closest to the campus, the travel routes he taught while in the country, as well as all campus administration.


As a foster sister who had also been an accomplice of Sean in preparing all the needs of the man of Canadian blood, it makes Leon so deft if only assigned to take care of Azlina's needs while in the country.


"So, I'll give you my first lesson in this country. Listen carefully, remember, and learn!"


Azlina simply nodded her head when they had entered one of the public transports that would take them towards the campus.


It is one of the world famous Fashion campuses and has already managed to print professional designers whose work is world recognized.


"Not everyone here can speak English, so you have to learn French a little bit. Right?"


Back nods were done by Azlina. The woman recorded in her brain what Leon had told her.


Some common French chats had been taught by Leon and Azlina recorded them in a small notebook while on the bus. He was like a tour guide who knew everything.


"Leon, wait!" Azlina tried to align her steps with the man's steps, fearing that she would get lost because she would have her own difficulties because she could not use the local language.


Foodcourt is quite crowded even though it has not entered lunch hour because it is very strategic and adjacent to the campus. Surely many students are looking for sources of nutrition by buying food in this place. And most interestingly, there is a typical Indonesian food menu that is usually peddled around. Especially if it's not meatballs.


"You're muslim? Carefully look for food here, you'd better choose food from Indonesia." Leon again reminded and was responded to by a nod by Azlina.


The man ordered two bowls of jumbo-sized beef meatballs, out of curiosity for the taste. Is it the same as the meatball he used to feel in his country? He sat down again by approaching Azlina at the customer's desk.


The woman looked awkward, sitting alone with someone as foreign as Leon. His guts were known to the man, so he commented a meaningful smile.


"I know you're married. Sean explained everything. Take it easy, even if I don't have a partner yet, I won't tease you." She blinked one eye, making Azlina chuckle lightly.


"I knew. Sean must have told the right man to take care of me."


"Yeah, I don't dare to mess around. I could lose my life if anything happened to you. She's that .. creepy." Leon closed his mouth when he said that.


In fact, one Leon was afraid to argue with Sean. Surprisingly, the man could be subdued with his brother who was so soft, did not talk much.


Azlina only grimaced, because what Leon said was true. "I'm scared too. But, he's nice. He's our family's helper. She ... loved my family very much. Whatever is related to Sister Salwa, she always contributes. It was like finding a jewel when Sister Salwa brought her home. I ... still remember it."


Leon propped his chin with both hands, staring at Azlina who was talking. The woman looked beautiful, her lips tiny with bangs left to cover her forehead. There was a slight dimple that appeared at a glance when he was smiling or talking, making Leon unfocused with Azlina's words. He focused only on the woman's face. Until the clinking sound of the phone in his pocket, makes Leon distract him.


A voice mail was sent to him by Sean Paderson. "Don't look at her like that, if your eyes want to stay safe!" Sean said it in French, but it still made Leon smile wryly.

Leon is not a new character, yes! These characters have been in the books before.
