The Beautiful Man of Zahra

The Panic of Zahra

*Advanced*

In front of the gate of Zahra's old man's house was still with his perfect smile that Mr. Lucas directed it to Zahra at the time. And Zahra who was still with a stare was confused by the intent and purpose of Lu Chen's assistant meeting him. Zahra became reminded of the incident 10 years ago when Mr. Lucas drove him to Jason Lu by the river. It was also his last meeting with Mr. Lucas, who was then an aide to Lady Lu, was Jiang Xi.

“Ehem!. Excuse me Miss Zahra I ordered Young Master to pick you up.” Speech Mr. Lucas instantly returns Zahra's mind to the real world.

“Yes!. You mean Lu Chen?.” Ask Zahra who is still awkward with the greeting Mr. Lucas's with.

“Ya miss who else?.” Still with a slight smile concluded Mr. Lucas answered Zahra's question.

“But why did Lu Chen... ehhm I mean Jason didn't call me?.” Zahra who began to look doubtful.

“Young Master did not have time to tell you, he just left his message through me.” Reply Mr. Lucas had Zahra believe in his words.

“Alright miss!. Can we leave now?. I'm afraid Young Master is waiting!.” Mr.lucas Pinta.

“Hhmm... alright!.” After reconsidering Zahra also chose to believe in Mr. Lucas and followed her into the car.

In the car, Zahra was still staring at the mature man with a curious look. It was only natural that Zahra was doubtful, as she knew that Lu Chen had never told anyone of their relationship, including his family. I doubt about Mr. Lucas, who he knew was Jackson Lu's right hand, because if his right hand only knew for sure his Great Lord also knew about their relationship. Zahra's heart began to beat recklessly, honestly he had no preparation when he had to meet with Jackson Lu, Lu Chen's father.

“Nona, we've arrived.” Speech Mr. Lucas rushes his daydream.

Zahra's heart again beat unnaturally when Mr. Lucas opened his car door and began to guide him into a luxurious but very beautiful house. The house was filled with colorful roses. Just like the noble house in Europe, it is like entering a beautiful castle in fairy tale films.

“Nona, I can only take you here. Young Master's room is on the left.” Pamit Mr's. Lucas to Zahra.

Zahra nodded her face as she understood her words. And Zahra began to comb the left side of the mansion. He looked at the pictures of the Lu family. There is a picture of the family that is still complete with Mother Lu Chen, Jiang Xi in it. And there are also some small photos of Lu Chen on the right and left of the family photo.

And not far from there was Lu Chen's room appointed by Mr. Lucas to Zahra. Zahra started knocking on Lu Chen's room door, but there was no answer from inside. He tried to open the door and the room was unlocked. Finally Zahra began to enter and look for the whereabouts of Lu Chen her lover.

“Lu!. I'm coming!.” Call Zahra. But the one who was called never gave an answer. Zahra began dialing Lu Chen's number.

Lu Chen's cellphone voice rang out from a distance, Zahra began to approach the direction of the walk in closet because she believed the phone was not far from there. Zahra began to focus her ears on the source of the sound, and just as Lu Chen's cell phone had alleged was right inside the bathroom near the walk in closet.

Concerns began to envelop Zahra's heart, he recalled the incident where he found Lu Chen lying down from illness. She was afraid the same thing would happen back to her. Zahra frantically broke down the bathroom door. But again Lu Chen was not found inside only his phone that was left near his bath tub.

“Lu, where are you?.” Zahra's tears began to flow from worry and fear into one moment. He didn't want anything to happen to his girlfriend, Zahra really didn't want it to happen.

And in the moment of his beginning to get frustrated with Lu Chen's whereabouts. The person he was worried about back then, was suddenly behind him. Lu Chen put on a curious face as soon as he saw the sudden arrival of his lover.

“Hei!. What are you doing here?.” Lu Chen asked Zahra.

He feels guilty for Zahra, because he cannot control his emotions when dealing with his father, Jackson. Until choosing not to contact Zahra all day, he really regretted it. And just then Zahra for an hour more could only cry in Lu Chen's arms without even talking. Until Lu Chen finally started the conversation first to him.

“Honey, still sad?.” Lu Chen asked Zahra who still looked as though he wanted to.

Zahra simply replied to Lu Chen's question with a nod.

“Why are you sad baby?. Is it because of me?. Hhmm?.” Lu Chen was still trying to get Zahra to control her emotions.

“I'm afraid, because you don't exist.” Zahra finally opened her voice.

“I'm here baby!. Try to feel it!.” It was Lu Chen who grabbed Zahra's fingers and brought it closer to Lu Chen's face.

Again Zahra was made to cry with Lu Chen's treatment. I don't know why Zahra was so sensitive that day. Where is he strong?. The fearless and steel-material self?. It turned out that when it hit Lu Chen he realized, that he could become weak at any time. And again Lu Chen finally hugged Zahra tightly to calm his lover's heart.

“I'm sorry I didn't tell you from here. I'm really sorry, it's purely my fault that made you this way. I promise I'll never worry you again, baby!. In Promise!.” Lu Chen's Promise to Zahra. Lu Chen wiped away Zahra's tears with his fingers while looking at her lover with a sad look.

“Appointment?.” Asked Zahra who was still not convinced by Lu Chen's words.

“I promise!.” While raising his two fingers towards Zahra the promise sign from Lu Chen.

After that Lu Chen grabbed the nape of Zahra's neck and kissed her lips for a moment. It made Zahra's face instantly blush due to Lu Chen's sudden action. She reciprocated Lu Chen's treatment by grabbing Lu Chen's nape of the neck with her hand and returning a kiss of his lips with another kiss from him. They looked like a new couple in love. And this was indeed the first time for both Zahra and Lu Chen who felt the beauty of being drunk in the heat.

A few hours later Zahra sat in the dining room of the Lu family while waiting for Lu Chen who was preparing a menu for the two of them. While waiting for Lu Chen to cook, Zahra walked through Lu Chen's dining room with many abstract paintings and some photos of Lu Chen with his Mommy.

Many questions were asked by Zahra when she saw so many photos of Lu Chen with the Mommy but none of Lu Chen with her father. But he could not reveal it before it was discussed by his own lover. Zahra just doesn't want to disturb something that shouldn't be disturbed.

“Take it ready!.” Call Lu Chen to get Zahra back to the dining table.

“Oh alright!.” When she was about to return to the dining table, Zahra accidentally dropped a book from the bookshelf next to Lu Chen's picture frame with her Mommy. The book looks like a little diary that is getting worn out.
