SHINE SHERO'S

Help Robert

...~Chapter 8~...

...-----------------------------...

...Zrv!...

Robert got to the Bamboo Forest, and saw Lucia seem overwhelmed digging up the ground in front of him just by using both of her hands.

...Sruk.....

...Sruk.....

" Ukh, in one go. And this land is a lot of rocks!" Lucia murmuring ,

and wipe the sweat that soaked his forehead. His hands were painful from being scratched by a stone.

" Should I have used bamboo? I don't think this job is finished." Lucia was sorry. But still continued to dig the ground in front of him using both hands.

Lucia's mind floated, and suddenly there was a sense of sadness that struck her heart.

Why did Robert leave me ? Why did he leave without my knowledge?

Lucia looked at the ground in her hands and felt sad. The stones on the ground made his hands bleed. What messenger? I can still get hurt and bleed!

Just as he was about to dig again regardless of the blood pouring from his hands, suddenly there was a burly hand holding Lucia's hand.

" A!!" Lucia was surprised to not realize there was anyone other than her there. Lucia looked at the owner of the burly and warm hand that was holding her hand.

...Robert?!!...

He brought his face closer to Lucia. It was only a few inches away between Robert and Lucia's face.

" Let me dig this ground Lucia ." Robert spoke softly.

Lucia's face flushed red, but she still felt annoyed at Robert who had come and gone .

Lucia turned her face away and replied in an annoyed tone. " I don't need your help!"

Robert smiled resignedly and put Dark's trench coat on Lucia. " This is Dark's coat for you. Dark tipped salutations." Robert spoke softly.

Lucia was speechless looking at Robert who did not care about his annoying attitude. Robert used to freak out when I looked upset.

" Sit under that tree, while I finish digging this ground." Said Robert who then offered a bottle of drink. " Drink, you must be very thirsty and tired."

Lucia looked at Robert in silence, and took the bottle of drink from Robert's hand without saying a word. He was too tired, even to thank Robert.

Lucia walked gontai towards the tree pointed by Robert.

Sit under a shady tree and sip the drink Robert gave her. His throat was very dry, so the water that flowed in soaked his mouth felt fresh.

Not long ago, Lucia felt her eyes were too heavy . The gust of wind that stroked her hair gently made her sleepy. Lucia is asleep too.

Robert who was digging the ground, looked at Lucia who was asleep from a distance . " You must be very tired, sleep Lucia." Robert then smiled .He was relieved to be there when Lucia needed him.

In an instant, Robert had dug the ground very deep and large. But he found nothing. He was very confused looking at the big hole in front of him.

" What are you looking for Lucia? Why do you want to dig this land? Even to the point of hurting both your hands?"

...Hyu.......

...Hyuu.......

The wind roared, swiping the leaves of the bamboo tree which then rustled. Lucia, who was fast asleep, made Robert also feel sleepy.

Not wanting to make Lucia wake up, Robert sat behind the tree where Lucia rested her body. Not long after, Robert also fell asleep under the shady tree. The wind caressed them softly.

It was getting dark, Lucia woke up from her sleep. Ah, I'm asleep.

Lucia stared at the land she and Robert dug. Land , it's done in the dig. Robert's? Where's Robert?

Lucia stood up in panic. What, did Robert leave me again ?

Lucia walked closer to the land that Robert dug up and looked around for the figure of the man who always made her miss at once upset.

Feeling desperate, Lucia shouted loudly calling out Robert's name. But only his voice echoed.No answer was heard.

" Did I mean nothing to you Robert? " Say Lucia was sad.

" Lucia means a lot to me." Answer the figure behind Lucia who then held her tightly.

" I'm sorry I saw you fall asleep, so it made me feel sleepy too." Robert spoke softly. Lucia looked at Robert who was smiling at her. Lucia's face flushed.

Robert's body was warm.

Lucia's heart was racing.

" This time, don't ever go again Robert. I really lost you. Promise me." Lucia .

Robert stroked Lucia's head gently. " Lucia, try to remember. Lucia must guard Earth and Robert must guard Saturn. I promise to always come when you need me. And don't do anything stupid like that!"

Robert put Lucia's hand on his big palm. " Look, your finger hurt Lucia. Bloody." Robert was worried.

" It's nothing." Lucia replied about to pull her hand back. But Robert clasped Lucia's hand tightly and treated Lucia's hand, then wrapped Lucia's bloody hand in a bandage.

...********...

...Glucose.....

...Tarrs.....

Robert looked up at the blackened and overcast sky. Heard her calling him back.

Robert looked at Lucia and finished making a knot in the bandage that wrapped Lucia's hand.

" Nah, it's done. I have to go now. Just waiting for you to wake up from your sleep." Robert then stroked Lucia's head gently.

"Please look at yourself, Lucia. I love you." Robert kissed Lucia.

" Bye Lucia." The smiling Robert looked at Lucia. " Bye Robert."

I don't get it. Even though Robert was leaving, my heart was calm. Robert is much more mature...
