The Woman Ruler of the Altan Clan

Chapter 76 Feeling Hollow

Shanum has been playing the same hair curls for the last five minutes and his behavior starts to upset his two best friends. Farah shook her head and grabbed her avocado juice, putting her lips on the straw.

While Diva was seriously noticing Shanum's uneasiness, she sat down next to Farah with her elbow superimposed on the table, her chin placed on one of her hands.

The three girls were gathering at a cafe located not far from their campus. After Diva and Shanum took care of the administration on campus, they agreed to gather there. Farah went straight to the cafe, not to the campus, because she had finished taking care of it since a few days earlier.

"You haven't answered me yet, Sha. What are your plans going forward about your relationship? From earlier we noticed you were engrossed in your own world," Farah scolded as she rolled her eyeballs.

Shanum shook his head and crossed his arms in front of his chest. "You think it's easy for me to decide? No. gabe. I don't have any plans yet" he replied flatly.

Farah grinned at Shanum. "Oh, really? Since when have you been a pessimist like this. The Shanum I know is always optimistic. Both of us can pass according to the schedule none other than because of your help. Time is only because a man who is like Bang Toyib, does not go home and give news, you are nervous like this" said Farah.

Shanum raised a few eyebrows, just enough to make Farah realize that she had absolutely no idea what her best friend was talking about.

"Why bring Bang Toyib, Farah? There's-there is," chirped Diva while giggling amusedly.

"Yes. There is no connection between our graduation and Bang Toyib" Shanum continued, a smile began to rise on his lips. Since then, his face has looked gloomy.

"Ishh, you're pretending to be stupid. I mean it's about Khan Adrian, your lover's a loh. He is like Bang Toyib. If graduation is just a sweetener sentence," explained Farah while half a sewot.

Shanum sighed and a smile disappeared from his face. "I don't know, Farah. It's too hard to express." Shanum's tone of voice was initially gentle, but it turned bitter before he finished saying the last sentence.

"I'm sorry" said Farah, feeling bad for urging her on and on.

"Look, you're getting upset because that guy disappeared for two months right. It's not my intention to keep reminding you of him. But are you sure you'll just wait like this?" ask Farah. Shanum did not reply with words, he only sighed while nodding languidly.

"I don't like to see your face that's always tangled, like clothes haven't been ironed out. So come on, you have to make a decision to act!" insist again. Farah tried to open Shanum's mind so as not to get fixated on her own anxiety.

Shanum smiled slightly at Farah. He understood that his best friend was anxious to see his behavior during these two months. He did manage to finish his script. And thankfully Mr. Reno has been brainwashed by Sergei.

During the assault on the basketball court the other day, everyone who was watching the game, and who was there was erased his memory by Sergei. No exception Mr. Reno and the people involved in it.

Sergei explained casually while grinning, that he was excessive in erasing the memory of Mr. Reno, to make his feelings of love for Shanum also forgotten.

And Shanum suspects the man's actions must not be separated from the role of Khan Adrian. Because if Mr. Reno forgets his feelings of love, of course a Khan Adrian is the most benefited. He no longer needed to worry about Mr. Reno who was busy stocking his charms, trying to keep approaching Shanum. Especially without her being near Shanum to look after him.

But Shanum did not want to bother about it. He did not feel hurt or lost. She had no feelings for him other than admiration.

Now he and his two friends just wait for their graduation time to be held in three days. His dream to finish college in accordance with his ideals was finally fulfilled. Shanum just step up to the next step, which is to find a job.

Shanum's father and mother were also very proud of his beloved daughter. They are excited to buy new clothes to wear at Shanum's graduation. And as for Khan, after the man left, they asked him to speak.

More Raisa, Shanum's mother is leading the conversation than Dimas, her father. The mother said that they would always support whoever her daughter chose. What matters to them is their happiness, not anything else. If Khan Adrian could take good care of him, and make a smile always rising from his lips, they would be a hundred percent supportive.

Shanum was able to fall asleep without burden to find the decision of his parents. The girl always wanted the complete approval of both. However, the blessing of parents is above everything else for him.

Then a week later, Jullian and Abdan actually returned to fulfill the task ordered to them by the Khan. They work hand in hand to restore the forest behind the villa to be as before. As for Sergei, the man had to return to Astrakhan immediately because his business needed immediate handling, so he could not help as before.

During his time in the location of the burning forest, on the sidelines of time to repair the forest, Shanum told a lot. Raisa and Dimas are in shock as Shanum reveals the whole event that happened during their disappearance.

It turns out that his daughter is again in danger, and must fight to keep her life and innocent people from becoming victims. The entire fight is told by Shanum, including when Khan protected him from attack, causing him to be severely injured.

Shanum's father froze in shock at his daughter's straightforward words. While the mother immediately glanced with a judgmental face towards the man. Shanum knew from the radiance of his eyes, father felt regret, and it was enough to make him feel a little relief. At least his father's face was no longer stiff when Shanum mentioned Khan's name in his conversation.

Both Shanum's parents also saw in real terms the state of the forest when it had not been fixed by Jullian and Abdan. And astonished to see the two Khan's bodyguards, using their power, restore the forest that had burned to green again. Even more amazing they only took a week to complete.

After repairing the forest, they returned to the city. It turns out secretly dad has bought the house and furniture. The location of their new home is not too far from the house of Farah, his best friend. And because the girl was interested in Jullian, then every day his face never forgot to be absent to come to Shanum's house.

No one forbade the arrival of the girl. The problem was that there were a lot of questions from everyone who saw Farah chasing after him. And Shanum was tired enough to answer many of the questions it represented Farah.

Shanum finds out that Farah has to act aggressively towards the man she likes. Although Jullian never discussed the approach launched by Farah, the girl still never gave up on the approach. Just as Khan had treated Shanum, Jullian was stiff and flat on Farah.

In the end Abdan who always chimed in on the talk that Farah was trying to bring up. Maybe Abdan felt sorry for the girl, because Jullian just kept quiet, responding as necessary.

Even more sadly, Jullian behaved differently if he was focused on teaching Dimas basic knowledge of teleportation techniques. He would put out a lot of long sentences, and it made Shanum seem more and more wrong. She was saddened to see Farah's frustrated face, when she noticed Shanum's father's interaction with Jullian.

As a friend Shanum wanted to help, but did not know how to do it so as not to be too visible to Jullian. Shanum was unwilling to make Jullian feel uneasy and fled back to Astrakhan.

In addition to Jullian, Abdan also helped teach his father about basic magic knowledge, they practiced diligently at agreed times. Now Shanum's father has started to move smoothly according to his wishes.

Shanum smiled to himself when he recalled his father's reaction when he first managed to move places with his own efforts. His face looked radiant, like a man who had finished winning the big draw. Jullian said his father was a very talented person, he could quickly absorb any instructions given by him and Abdan.

Jullian and Abdan did not take long to train Shanum's father. Dimas managed to brilliantly learn the magic power inherited from his ancestor in a short time.

After nearly three months of training, Jullian and Abdan return to Astrakhan, to fulfill their true duty as Khan's bodyguards. When they were still in Shanum's house, Khan still often gave news to Shanum. Either by calling him or sending him a message.

Shanum can't resist. Fortunately, he was only home that day. So all day, he acts like a madman holding his cell phone continuously. Only when the battery runs out does the call stop. Once the cell phone battery is fully charged, that absurd activity is re-done.

Shanum's father just shook his head at the strange behavior of his daughter and her lover. The rest of him was busy with his work. But a striking difference occurred with the reaction of the mother, the woman was chuckling amusedly and more often teasing the two lovebirds.

Now, that moment has passed for about two months. Khan never sent word again. Shortly after the two guards left, their communication was cut off. Shanum doesn't know what's going on with his girlfriend. He was anxious to think about the problem that the man might be having. Because before they separated, the girl had a bad feeling in her.

And the more days, his heart grew doubtful. Should he chase after the man and join a group of women competing for his sake or buy time until the man comes to him?

Snapping himself onto the upholstered chairs in the cafe, Shanum stared at his two best friends, who were looking back at him with questionable eyes. They waited patiently, waiting for Shanum to finish with his daydream. Understand enough not to urge the girl again, if you want to get an answer that makes them curious.

"If I go after him, isn't that too embarrassing?" shanum asked suddenly while grimacing.

Farah grunting. "You are her lover, for what shame. If I were you, that would be the first thing I would do."

Diva rolled her eyeballs. "But Shanum isn't you, Farah. If I'm any advice, you better wait, Sha."

"Huh, who is also being acutely upset! Who told me, after graduation wants to chase someone to Astrakhan? Looking for the same man is leaving a girl here until the girl is the nelangsa endless. Or maybe something bad has happened to both men" Farah said.

Diva immediately patted Farah on the shoulder with bulging eyes and said, "Just don't talk! It's not good to know to want bad things to happen to our lovers."

"I'm just guessing, who knows is right. It's very suspicious! That time can be at the same time. Both of them for more than a month are equally unable to be contacted right," continued Farah.

Shanum's gaze shifted from Farah to Diva, then turned again, but the two friends had seen anxiety in Shanum's eyes, as well as other things. Something that looks like doubt.

"What are you hiding, Sha? I know, there's gotta be something you're thinking in your pretty head." Farah looked at Shanum.

"Actually before he left, I felt a bad feeling," Shanum said nervously.

"Bad hunch?" reset Diva. "About what, Sha? Please tell me," urged the girl.

Shanum sighed while wiping his forehead. "I didn't get the visual picture, just the discomfort pressing on my mind and chest. All this time I ignored him, but if there's no news now, of course I'm also starting to wonder right?!"

Farah looked towards the Diva. They look at me in silence. Diva then averted her eyes, she was glued to look at her fingers clenched on the table, her face looked cloudy.

"Now what I feel inside me is very confusing. In my mind there are positive sentences that he is fine, there is no need for excessive anxiety. But on the other side of my heart also appeared doubt. What if it's true, that guy's in trouble?" Shanum bit his lip, and threw a tormented glance at his companions.

"I felt a void within our bond. As if I had lost it. All this time, even though we closed each other's bond channels, I was still able to feel the vibrations of his existence. I can't describe it, but I know that it's in my soul" Shanum said.

A wet gleam was seen in Shanum's eyes, and Farah's chest darted. He and Diva know about the soul bond that exists between Shanum and Khan. They knew Shanum and the man could communicate through telepathy, could feel feelings for each other through their bond, as well as all the other amazing things. The soul bond that binds the two, that bond also now makes one feel lost.

"I hope Khan's okay, Sha. So is your man Diva." Farah turned to look at her two best friends, then she sighed. "It turns out having a lover is quite complicated as well yes," he said again while grimacing.

"Well, that is," said the Diva in a hoarse voice enduring her grief.

They are busy with their own thoughts. No one is interested in making a sound, or creating a new conversation.

Suddenly, in the midst of the silence, Shanum stood up from his seat, looked at his friends and said, "OK, I have to go home. Farah wants to take another cab, will you come with me?"

"I still want to be here first, Sha. I'm just going with Diva" replied Farah. The girl was not carrying her vehicle. His car is still in the garage for regular service.

"Yes, Farah come with me, and I'll take her home. Now I'm still waiting for news from Mama, so what not to buy her favorite cake," continued Diva also replied. Diva's mother is a big fan of the cafe's lemon tart. Diva was often asked by her mother to buy her the cake, so they eventually became a regular subscription to hang out there.

"Oh, okay. Then I'll see you on graduation day." Shanum picked up the bag on the bench next to him, then hooked his rope on the shoulder.

Diva and Farah nodded in unison, smiling. "Be careful, Sha" said Diva.

"Don't be frustrated. We're in three days at graduation. And it must be beautiful. Who knows, his love came to the graduation ceremony," said Farah with her trademark grin.

Shanum smiled faintly. "And I hope, Jullian is coming too" Shanum continued. Farah's face immediately turned red, pretending not to listen to Shanum's words. But Shanum is not fooled, he can read that the girl still keeps special feelings for Jullian.

"Well, that's the desire from the bottom of his heart, the deepest still," ledek Diva. An amused smile rose on the lips of the girl, when she saw Farah's face getting flushed. His smile turned into an amused laugh as he saw Farah getting more and more misbehaved. "Ciee, it turns out that can be shaken as well as this half-mighty girl," added Diva.

Shanum who was preparing to leave instead joined back. He laughed at Farah. "My guess is right, you still like a stiff guy like that board, right."

Farah grunting. "You don't have a mirror, Sha. Your priest is the same, rich ice block so!" sindir Farah's.

"God..." Diva also giggled amusedly.

"Haha... Ice Beam! You are that, really. There's just the chirps. But wonder yes, how can we be the same type of man." Shanum shook his head as he chuckled, with his hands holding his stomach.

"Yes, so the stomach ache keeps laughing." Shanum then waved his hand, he stepped out of the cafe, leaving his two best friends with laughter from his mouth.
