The Charm Behind the Mist

Longing.

~Happy Reading~

After arriving at the hotel and resting, the next day Carren went to the place to be made the wedding venue of his client. By taxi, he arrived at one of the resorts in Dreamland. He deliberately set off a little afternoon, because he would see the location by late afternoon.

The wedding reception will be held in the afternoon until evening. So that he will see the atmosphere at sunset in the resort open. The open section near the beach cliffs will be the reception venue. When arriving there, Carren greatly admired the circumference of the resort located on a cliff with spectacular views towards the sea and blue. Below it is a beach with beautiful white sand.

Before speaking to the resort's management, Carren took a look at the neighborhood. He also measured the large open space of the resort which is located near the cliffs of the rock beach and surrounded with wooden fences.

Carren immediately captured the location before noon. He took a picture of the location with his cell phone. All corners of the place are photographed to give an overview to its employees. Not to forget too, he made a location video with his phone.

He then enjoyed lunch at the place. Actually he could have stayed in that place, so it was easier to survey. But because of his trip at company expense, he stayed at the hotel on budget. To stay at the resort, he had to merogo in his pocket.

Upon seeing the place, he remembered his mother at home. If she had to stay at that place, she would come on vacation with her Mama. Seeing the beauty of the place, he imagined his mother would be very happy to be in that place. Because he and his mother really like the beach, especially there is a stretch of white sand. They can walk for hours on a stretch of sand or sit casually hearing the pounding waves.

The weather was clear, very supportive of the atmosphere, so he had lunch at that place. He mersogo his own pocket, outside the company's cost to briefly enjoy lunch in a beautiful and luxurious place. He spoiled himself by trying the menu provided while hearing the beautiful music. He sat at a table not far from the pool, for it was absolutely beautiful as far as the eyes were up against the pool.

After lunch, he was tempted to go down to the beach. The water is receding, making the sand beach look spacious and many people are relaxing. From the resort, Carren descended past neatly arranged stone steps. Then sit in a lounge chair that is reserved for visitors. Using a scarf to cover his head from the sunlight, he walked along the white sand beach.

White sand and waves are very pampering the eyes. He can enjoy the beauty of the beach owned by the resort. Carren releases his sneakers, then walks slowly and leisurely along the beach.

Suddenly she felt her legs were fairy and started to hurt. He sat down on the sand to see what was making his legs hurt. It turned out that there was a part between his thumb and index finger that hurt his leg. Carren immediately cleaned the sand on his feet with his hands. His legs grew sore and began to bleed, perhaps being hit by something sharp in the sand.

When she saw that her legs were bleeding, Carren took a handkerchief from her bag. Then tie his legs with the handkerchief to prevent more bleeding. He forced to wear sneakers back so that he could avoid the sand getting into the wound. He tried to walk quickly, then climbed up the stone steps to return to the place near the pool. He wanted to examine the leg, so he could treat the wound.

While walking up and a bit limping, he asked the resort officer he met to buy mineral water. He wanted to clean the sand from his feet to see the wound. He sat on one of the chairs in a rather cool place while waiting for the resort attendant. He was no longer paying attention to the surrounding that was starting to get crowded. Residents or visitors like him began to arrive and sit in the lounge chairs available near the pool. There are also those who are bathing, but Carren can no longer enjoy the beautiful scenery before the afternoon at that place, because of the condition of his feet.

After the resort attendant came carrying a bottle of medium-sized mineral water, Carren removed the handkerchief from his leg and slowly began to water his leg. While enduring the pain, he continued to clean the sand around the wound with the mineral water and tissue he carried.

Aaric took the mineral water from Carren's hand, then sat down next to Carren's seat. He gently watered Carren's still-sand feet, especially around his wound. While doing so, Aaric realized, Carren neither spoke nor moved. The wound on his leg must have been very painful. That made Aaric look towards Carren.

He was surprised to see Carren's reddened face, especially his nose. "Why see me like that? You missing me?" Aaric asked intentionally, so that Carren could interact with him. But he was more and more surprised by Carren's reaction to him.

Carren immediately embraced and hugged the neck of Aaric, who was crouching to clear Carren's legs. Hugging Aaric's neck, Carren began to cry. That made Aaric an instant. He closed the bottle of mineral water and put it on the floor.

"Gssstttt.... Arra, relax. We are being seen by many. You're not ashamed to see them?" Aaric asked, as some people started to look towards them. Hearing Aaric's words, Carren wept even more without letting go of his embrace.

~Flashback~

Aaric was in Sydney, had to come to Bali to attend a meeting of young National and International entrepreneurs held at one of the hotels in Nusa Dua, Bali. He had just come home from the last meeting, so he wanted to relax for a moment by sitting on the beach waiting for the sunset time to arrive.

But he was very surprised, as he was about to pass through the area near the swimming pool. He saw Carren was cleaning his bleeding leg. So he stopped and looked at Carren who was unaware of his presence, then reprimanded him.

~Flash off~

In the confusion to calm Carren down, Aaric could only rub his back slowly. "Sudaaaa, don't cry anymore. Let me see and treat your feet. You won't be able to walk to the pelaminan with me." Aaric said seriously, making Carren let go of his embrace and cry with restraint.

While continuing to sob, Carren saw Aaric who was flushing his feet with alcohol he asked from the resort officer. Aaric flushed while blowing Carren's leg, because he knew it was sore. Carren endured her pain and cries, but still occasionally hiccups.

"I thought for a long time about how to propose to you. But look. I proposed to you this way. Not very romantic." Aaric said with a smiling face and his eyes twinkle. Carren looked at Aaric as if in disbelief. Aaric nodded his head to convince Carren that he was talking seriously. Carren again sobbed, holding his chest, as his heart was pounding irregularly. She was completely shocked by everything she experienced.
