Possessive Companions

Chapter 60

Darrel didn't really go back home. He chooses to go to the apartment, where Aurel lived before returning to his home.

"At least, I can still breathe your scent here." Darrel muttered, entering the room that was once Aurel's room. He laid his body on the bed. Unconsciously, he fell asleep.

When dusk begins to appear, Darrel awakens from his sleep. It felt, he could sleep a little better compared to these few days. Darrel rushed to the bathroom and washed his face. After that, he left the apartment.

When he stepped out of the apartment building, he immediately stopped. In front of him, stood Aurel who was looking at him with a feeling he could not explain. Clearly, he knew, the girl harbored many feelings emanating from her eyes.

Darrel tried to strengthen his heart so as not to waver. His face turned cold, then walked past Aurel just like that.

"Darrell!" Aurel yells ignored Darrel. The man just walked.

"Darrell!"

"Darrell!"

The girl could not help herself to remain silent. He ran after Darrel who was close to his car.

"Darrell!"

Brakes..

Darrel shut the door of his car without a care for Aurel. He locked the car door, making Aurel unable to open it. To be honest, he was worried when he saw Aurel running after him earlier.

"Darrell! Darrell! Open door! Darrell!" Aurel yelled while banging on Darrel's car door glass. However, Darrel remained on his stance. He started the car engine.

"Darrell! Open door! Darrell! Comeon, down. Come on, let's talk. I don't know what drives you away like this. Please, get down Darrel. Let me talk. Let me know what my mistake is until you're like this. Darrel, hiks." Aurel's tears kept flowing, and it made Darrel feel even more pain.

As Aurel's hand slipped from the door of his car, Darrel quickly drove forward. He could not bear to hurt Aurel like this. He was hurt to see Aurel cry.

"Darrell!!" He could still hear Aurel calling out his name. But he kept driving his car.

"I'm sorry, Aurel." Her speech.

***

Darrel arrives home and immediately prepares to attend the dinner. The event arranged by his father and Uncle Edo as a dinner with their old friend for the first time, after a long time did not meet.

Geck... Geck... Geck...

Darrel knocked on Darren's room door. And before long, the door opened.

"What's wrong?" Darren asked, with a cold expression.

"Nothing. I just want to see what color you wear to get there."

"That's not what I mean." Reply Darren.

Darrel took his breath. "Huufth..." He then rested his body. "I accidentally met Aurel. She was crying because I ignored her."

Darren was silent to hear it. In his heart, he hoped that Uncle Ben and Uncle Kenan would soon get the results.

"Sister!" Alisha's voice made the two men look over. Alisha just got out of her Mom and Dad's room.

"Alisha." Darren Darrel said.

"What are you guys talking about? Father asked that the twin brothers immediately prepare. We're leaving soon."

"Yes. Waita minute. Brother will be ready." Darrel quickly passed with no spirit.

Alisha stared at her brother until Darrel's body disappeared, entering the room. He then looked at Darren with raised eyebrows.

"Sister Darrel why, brother? He's not usually like this. Alisha saw from a few days ago, Brother Darrel is different. He's not excited."

"Nothing happened." Darren brought himself closer to Alisha, then rubbed his head. "Don't think about it too much. Quickly, prepare! Mom and Dad will be waiting."

Alisha nodded. "Good, Brother." He said, then immediately to his room.

After a few minutes, Darren, Darrel and Alisha go down to meet their parents. Gara and Alula were already waiting for them in the living room.

"Mother's son, she's so pretty." Alula rubs her daughter's hair. His eyes were then fixed on his two sons. While Gara, he embraces his daughter and kisses her forehead. Then, he also looked at his two sons.

"You guys are so handsome." Praise Alula to her two sons. The two of them only replied with a faint smile.

"Come, we're leaving!" Gara.

They then went to the restaurant they had promised. Alisha was with her parents, as well as a bodyguard who became a driver. Darren drives his own car, and so does Darrel.

About 20 minutes later, they arrived at the restaurant. Not with Darrel. The man's car is not yet visible.

"Dad, Mother, Brother Darren. You guys go first. Alisha wants to wait for Darrel."

"You sure?" Alisha nodded, answering her mother's question.

"alright. You, take care of my daughter. If anything happens, call me immediately." Gara said to the bodyguard who doubles as a driver tonight.

"Good, sir." Reply to the man, bowing his head.

Darren rubbed his sister's head, then walked with his parents. Inside, there was already a couple waiting for them. There were no other visitors other than those who already had appointments with the two people.

"Come,"

The two people who greeted each other, hugged. Alula also greets each other and hugs Aryo's wife.

"This is your son?" Aryo asked, making Gara nod.

"He looks so handsome." Whisper Aryo's wife, on Alula. The woman simply smiled hearing the praise for her son.

"Come, sit." Aryo.

"Oh yeah, where are your two kids again?"

"My daughter's still outside, waiting for her leg." Answer Alula.

"Aryo!" The call made those who sat turn to the source of the voice.

Edo smiled broadly at them. Next to her, there was Irene who was walking while holding her hand. And behind them, there was Asya and also Naomi.

Darren who was in his chair, could not take his gaze off Asya. She looks so pretty in a navy dress. His eyes continued to stare at Asya until the girl stood nearby.

Naomi who saw that gritted her teeth. His hands were tightly clenched.

"It's been a long time since we've met." Aryo.

"Yes. I think so too." Reply Edo.

"Ck. You're this. Come, sit!"

Edo, Irene, Asya and Naomi pull their seats. Naomi's hand was about to pull the chair that was right next to Darren. However, the man quickly held back his chair. And with her sharp gaze, she looked at Naomi without caring about the people around her.

"This is not your place! Don't touch!" Darren said in a cold and repressive voice.

Aryo and his wife were stunned. Irene, Edo, Asya and Alula were also shocked. Naomi felt it the most. While Gara, she was so calm and relaxed looking at her son.

"Ekhm..." Aryo cleared his throat, eliminating this tense situation. Naomi immediately sat down on another chair, leaving Asya in the seat that Darren was holding.

"Your son is very handsome, Gara. Your daughter's so pretty, too, Edo. But, as I know, you only have one daughter. So, she..."

"Include, um. I'm Naomi, Asya's foster brother." Naomi's words cut through Aryo's words.

The man who was the same age as Edo and Gara forced his smile and returned Naomi's hand. To be honest, he felt quite dislikeful of Naomi's actions.

"Your daughter is very pretty, Irene. If only my son was your daughter's age, I'd be willing to match them." Said Tia, Aryo's wife. His words made Darren look sour. But it didn't last long because Asya touched his hand.

"Yes. You're right, honey. I agree with your words. If only our daughter hadn't been married. I must have made a bet with Gara's son." Aryo said while chuckling.

"There's no time to get married." Answer, Relax.

"Yes. I agree with Gara. We give it back to those who live life." Edo said, chiming.

After a few minutes of talking, Darrel and Alisha came. The two children introduced themselves to Aryo and Tia. After that, they both heard Aryo's story about his friendship with Gara and Edo. Suddenly, Alisha shouted to someone.

"Axhel!" The girl shouted while standing up and waved her hand. No matter the other look.

Axel who was called Alisha immediately approached. But, Alisha immediately glared at the sight of Aryo and Tia hugging Axel.

"Om same aunt..."

"Axel son of the same aunt. Om didn't expect you to know Axel knew each other."

"Tante didn't expect it either."

Damnit. Aryo's son also did not lose his looks even though he was very young. Inner Naomi.

"This is the first time I've seen Axel. He's very handsome. He also looks a good match for Alisha." Asya whispers to Darren.

"I don't like you praising others." Darren whispers back to Asya, making the girl grimace the little Darren retaliates.

"Wait on! Alisha still does not understand. Why can Axel be a son of aunty? Aunty's living abroad." Alisha.

"Axel, sit!" Darrel shows the chair next to him for Axel to sit down. The boy according to what Darrel said.

"Look, Alisha. Axel o'm told he lives here with his grandmother. Actually, he asked. Om initially refused because he felt Axel was still not able to take care of his grandmother. Let everything be taken care of by your sister. But, after his older sister died, and Axel continued to force, finally om let although not willing to live far away. Om once thought of bringing Grandma Axel to live with om. But, Axel's grandmother refused."

"For the first two years, tente with Axel and his grandmother. After that, Axel sent tente back to see om to accompany om. Because for him, we had to split the task. Besides, grandma's condition is already very good."

"Oohhhhhhhhhhh... Alisha thought, auntie just don't want a child like Axel. If that's the case, Alisha will ask Dad to adopt her." Canda Alisha, make them chuckle softly. While Darren, Darrel, Axel were also Gara, they just fell silent watching them.

"Oh yeah, Tia. Thank you for helping my son. Thank you, yes, Axel."

"Yes, tan." Reply Axel.

"Yes. Your son has helped my daughter a lot." Saying Gara.

"I didn't expect it to be like this. My son is your daughter's helper. But, my son is not much different in nature from yours, Gara. How does he interact with your daughter? Looks like they're pretty close." Aryo.

"Yes, om right. Axel is cold. In fact, none of the children in school dared to tease him. But, he always responded to Alisha's words. He wants to talk to Alisha. Sometimes Axel starts the conversation."

Hearing Alisha's words, Axel turned his head towards his parents for a moment. Seeing their affectionate smiles that he had not seen in person for long enough, made his heart warm.
