Possessive Companions

Chapter 7

Alisha and Darren walk into the house together. The little girl's face was smiling happily. That's what Darrel said. His sprained leg was healed after being sequenced by Bu Arsi.

"Mother" Alisha hugged and kissed her mother.

Alula hugged and kissed him. "Come, wash your hands and eat."

"Mom haven't eaten since?"

"Mommy's not hungry yet. Comeing! Darren, come on, kid!"

Alula, Darren and Alisha rushed to the dining room. The food he cooked was reheated.

They pulled up their seats and sat down. Alisha's face beamed at the food on the table. Everything looks good. Suddenly he remembered something.

"Sister, where's my order?" He looked towards Darren who had already spooned the rice onto his plate.

"There's." Answer Darren.

"Mother saved. Eat first." Alula scoops the side dish onto Alisha's plate. The girl nodded and started eating her food.

Gara, who had just returned from the office, scrunched her forehead. His house is uninhabited. He walked towards the dining room. And sure enough, his wife and two children were eating their food.

"Ooh... So, I'm not welcome just because of these two crooks?" Gara stood up while folding his hands on his chest.

Alula and Alisha turned to the source of the voice. While Darren, he remained focused on his food.

"Dad, let's join." Because smiling. He did not refuse his daughter's request. He approached, peeping at Alula and Alisha.

His eyes glanced at Darren who had not spoken since earlier. "Are you hungry, or are you ignoring me, Darren?" He asked, without taking his eyes off Darren.

"Both, Dad." Answer Darren, indifferently. Making Gara cluck while shaking his head.

"Why are you having lunch at this hour?"

"Alisha and Brother had a little business when they came home from school. So, it's a little late for his house."

Gara nodded, then rubbed Alisha's head slowly. "alright. Finish food. After this, rest."

"OK, Dad."

A few days passed. Tomorrow is the day Asya will return. Darren has received information about the arrival of the aircraft used by Asya later.

Jiyo who got a call from Darren by phone immediately headed for Darren's room.

"Young master," She said as she lowered her head at Darren.

"Cancel all my business after lunch tomorrow." The command with eyes that focus on the laptop screen.

"But, tomorrow..." Jiyo's words were stopped by Darren's sharp gaze. The man gulped his saliva.

"alright. I'll do it." The answer. He looked at Darren. Suddenly, curiosity as to why Darren canceled all his activities after lunch tomorrow.

"Ekhm." Jiyo pretends to be pussy. "By the way, why are you canceling all activities after lunch tomorrow? Are you going to visit Asya again?"

"Asya is back." Answer Darren as he is. After all, Jiyo was also Asya's best friend. He also deserves to know.

"What's? Asya's back? Why didn't he tell me? No. gabe. This can't be allowed! I'll call him." Jiyo pulled out her phone to call Asya. However, his hand motion came to a halt as he felt a hostile air in the room.

Jiyo looked at Darren. Justright. The man was looking at her with a hostile look. It made her throat feel dry and it was difficult to swallow her saliva.

"I-I'm not gonna call him. I'm out first." Jiyo lowered her head back to Darren, then quickly walked out of the room.

Jiyo took her breath when she arrived at her room. He sat in the chair and pulled out his phone. He's gonna call Darrel.

"Hallo," A hoarse voice rang out as the call connected.

Jiyo slightly frowned. "You just woke up?"

"It's none of your business!"

"Ck. You're this." Decak Jiyo's. "I hear, Asya will be back tomorrow."

"Hm."

"He didn't tell me."

"Ck. Let alone you, Darren was not told. Neither Uncle Edo nor Aunt Irene. He wants to surprise."

"Then, how did Darren know?"

"I told him. I told Uncle and Tante too. I asked them to keep it a secret so Asya would be happy. Only Darren doesn't."

"Why?"

"Come on, tell me why."

"Ck. Asya came with someone. So, I let Darren pick her up. Yeah, even if I forbid it, Darren's gonna pick me up."

"Who? A girl or a boy?"

"Women."

"Asiiikk, bus..."

"I warn! Don't try to be gentle with her."

"Why?"

"I don't think he's a good friend to Asya."

"alright. Don't worry."

"Yes already. Go back to work."

"I'm..." The interrupted call made Jiyo's speech hang. He put his phone on the table.

"You two are brothers. Same with ngeselin." His grunt.

The long-awaited day arrived. Jiyo had already done her job to cancel all of Darren's schedules after lunch. But, he was a little upset when Darren still gave him a job that automatically prevented him from coming to pick up Asya.

Jiyo sat in her chair with a stack of documents on the table that she had to check.

"Darren really tortured me this time." He muttered while reaching for a document.

While Darren, the man drove his car to the airport. After a few minutes, he arrived. Darren watched the clock. As scheduled, the plane on board Asya will land in 10 minutes.

Darren was silent in his car. After the plane completely landed and the passengers got off, Darren got out of the car and walked towards the lobby. The sunglasses that framed his face, added to his good looks. However, it could not dispel the cold aura and dominate it.

Every step of the way, attracted many pairs of eyes to pay attention to him.

Asya and Naomi drag each other's suitcases while nursing the lobby. Asya's steps suddenly stopped. His gaze fell on a well-built man standing in front of him, not so far away from him. His body stiffened for a moment. Although there was a part of his face that was blocked by glasses, he was still able to know him well.

"Darren?" Mumbled. Making Naomi who also stopped and looked at him in wonder, turned her head to the object that Asya was looking at.

"Assy..." Naomi's speech was stopped by Asya who suddenly walked away from her. He felt annoyed. However, he soon hides his feelings and follows Asya.

Asya further accelerated her pace as Darren looked so close. He took off his suitcase and pounded the man's body. Asya hugged Darren tightly. Likewise Darren, he replied that he was not less tight.

"I miss you." Asya. Darren didn't answer. He remained silent without loosening his embrace.

No answer coming out of Darren's mouth made Asya feel bad. He was about to let go of his embrace, but Darren hugged him even more tightly.

"I know, you must be angry. I don't mean to not know you. I just want to give it to..."

"I'm not angry." Darren said directly cutting it.

Asya smiled in Darren's arms. While behind her, Naomi stood up while looking at Asya and Darren. Although he had never met Darren, but from what Asya told him, he could already recognize him.

I reckon... Now I like Darren better than Darrel. He murmured in his heart.

Showing off the romance in front of me. I'll make sure to take Darren away from you. Continue in the heart.

Asya lets go of her embrace as she remembers to introduce Naomi to Darren. He looked at Darren's face.

"I want to introduce someone to you." Asya looked at Naomi. "Naomi, come!"

The girl called Asya walked over and stopped beside Asya. His presence didn't make Darren look at him. The man was only glued to Asya. His hands moved to remove his glasses. It was as if that thing was preventing him from staring at Asya.

Naomi who saw him was surprised. Darren's cold and stern face made his heart weaken.

He's really very handsome. So much like Darrel. But, he looks so cold compared to Darrel. And his eyes, different from Darren's. If I can't get Darrel, I should be able to get Darren. His inner.

Asya smiled at Naomi who was standing next to her. He then looked at Darren who had never let go of his gaze.

"Why are you looking at me?" Asya asked with a slight smile. He then grabbed Darren's hand. "introduce. She's Naomi, she'll stay with me, Mama and Papa."

"Come, go home!" Instead of replying to Asya's words, Darren grasped Asya's hand and invited him home.

Asya was surprised and looked at Naomi. The girl also looked back at him. He showed his fake smile. Even so, Asya still felt uncomfortable. Naomi's face flushed. Whether because of shame or anger, Asya could not guess.

Darren doesn't care about the interaction of the two. He grabbed Asya's suitcase, and slowly pulled the girl's hand. Let Naomi alone.

"Darren..."

"Don't make mistakes, Asya. I can be kind and I can be bad." Darren said, cold.
