EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 166's

...

I'm shaking. “I don't know, but in my family no one chooses a career in the art of drawing.”

Then Ronald's hand grabbed the bowl and spoon in my hand, before I protested he said. “Let me bribe. You remind me of my sister out of town. He's also this smooth.”

“Plain? Am I as good as what?”

“Maybe he means because of your story, Ronald's sister is also studying S1 outside the city and majored in business management even though Leona is great in volleyball and had been offered to enter the national team. But he prefers to study seriously to get a permanent job in the future.” Lifer's explanation made me nod, not expecting this big, muscular man in front of me to have a younger brother.

“Another reason because Leona had been injured, although she had undergone rehabilitation and was cured but still did not want to continue her volinya.” career Ronald continued while giving half a spoon of porridge to the front of my mouth.

It was a bit awkward but I didn't refuse and accept the bribe.

“I like volleyball. If only I liked volleyball in school first, maybe I would also seriously choose a career in volleyball.”

“Why?” Lifer asked now that both of his hands had grasped the apple and the knife that since yesterday there had been a small basket of fruits on the other side of the nightstand.

“I've only really known volleyball in the last year because I watched the Haikyuu.” anime My answer was to take another second bribe from Ronald.

“Anime yes? Hm.. Indeed, my wife also said that TV shows now have nothing rame and less good. He switched to watching india before and lately always watch anime to the point of ignoring me and not taking care of me.” Lifer pouted for a moment making me and Ronald chuckle softly.

The man then got up to his feet, stepping towards the bathroom.

“By the way, are you guys not working today?” I looked at Ronald and Benny. I just remembered, only Bayu got a ban here while his three friends who wore this free clothes were also here.

“Because Bayu in suspension, we take leave permission.”

“Why?” I asked Benny's answer.

The man seemed to fold his hands in front of his chest as his expression thought for a moment. His position was now sitting on a small chair that was usually beside this bed.

“Why do we take a leave?” Suddenly Benny asked Ronald, it made me look at them suspiciously.

Ronald, whose hands had not stopped bribing me, stopped and he thought hard. “Because Bayu in suspension. So we take a leave.”

“That was Benny's answer earlier.” I said, sure they did hide something behind the reason for their leave.

My eyes caught Lifer who had returned from the bathroom and stepped closer to us. For a moment I stared at Bayu and Ana who were still chatting seriously face to face on the sofa. I remember not hearing anything about what they were talking about, but the initial intention was that I invited her in because I wanted to know about Ana's business with Bayu.

“Lifer, why are you on leave? What does this have to do with Bayu?” I asked directly when this narrow-eyed man had sat back on the side of the mattress, where he had been.

The wet knife and fruit in his hand was about to peel but stopped for a moment at my question. He also confusedly answered.

“If you want to take a vacation, shouldn't you be with Talia?” I ask again I don't want to stop.

“Eh but by the way, what is Bayu and Ana talking about?” Whisper Ronald distract me.

I know, he tried to shift the subject and it worked. I'm more interested in Bayu now.

“The woman still says Bayu is her boyfriend. He convinced many things by showing evidence. Maybe their pictures too. If I'm Bayu, I don't know how to kick him out, you know his family. I'm sure if we offend him a little bit, the boss will nag us.” Benny replied in a whisper.

“What is his family very influential in the military?” I was curious to whisper too.

“After we finish the task, for their thanks to us, now his family became the biggest contributor of weapons in the city.” Answer Lifer.

This feeling of jealousy grew even greater in my heart. Ana's family even had an influence in the military, and Bayu's family was also great people in the military, the fact that Bayu's family accepted me openly and Bayu himself loved me so much, I'm getting smaller when compared to Ana.

“Actually before I met the Bayu family yesterday, I had thought that his family would not accept me easily even though I had known Bayu since childhood and knew Kirana's mother. But I didn't expect even Jeremy's grandfather to welcome me with open arms.” I said dream without

cognizant.

“I like and feel at home when visiting the residence of Jeremy's grandfather or Kirana's mother, he said, they are indeed from military families who sometimes people consider them hard and full of rules but in fact they never force Bayu about his affairs. Jeremy's grandfather and his father wanted Bayu to be free to let out

his ability in the military and mother believes Bayu's choice about his future.” Benny answered a glance at Bayu.

“Iya and in my opinion because of his family's support like that. Bayu became smart and good at his job and he also became a happy figure beside the people in his tribe.” Ronald added. I nodded in agreement with their words.

“But to be honest, I was shocked when I found out Bayu was close to you and even claimed you were his girlfriend, I mean from the beginning he never offended a woman named Icha. She did tell him that she didn't like her match with Jane, and then about Ana also pretending to be her boyfriend while we were on duty but not with you. As if you just came and instantly stole his entire attention in an instant.” Lifer asked me seriously.

I smiled slightly, looking down, avoiding the gazes of these three men.

“Yahh, the story is a bit complicated. Yes ‘kan?” I asked and looked up at Benny, intending to offend him, considering that the man had already found out about me to the detail.

“Very complicated.” Benny agreed to return my sharp gaze.

“Again?! You find out details about him?” Lifer immediately clucked angrily at Benny. They both must have known the nature of this man.

“Sorry Benny ya Cha. When it comes to Bayu, me and Lifer he is overprotective if there are new people around us. He will definitely find out as much detail as possible.” Ronald said to me in a guilty tone.

I shook my head quickly. “I understand, that's how to express love to you guys ‘kan? After all what Benny is looking for also fits the facts and does not cross the line.”

“Betul! I never crossed the line, just looking for as much detail as possible! As ready to pay before it rains.” Bela Benny stared at Lifer and Ronald in turn.

Lifer raised her regretful gaze and Ronald simply shook his head while chuckling.

“He's funny ‘kan? It would be funnier if he already had a girlfriend.” Sindir Ronald looked at me and gave me the last spoon of his porridge.
