EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 57's

...

“Is that? Though he often smiles in front of me.” I smiled back at him. Ronald and Lifer

increasingly becoming-so teasing Bayu. They laughed in satisfaction seeing this man so upset.

“Captain.” Suddenly two women in the same uniform as these three men stood saluting them. My gaze that was blocked by the tall and sturdy bodies of the three tried to see through the gap.

Now I clearly look like a woman who's curious about her boyfriend's girlfriend. “Everything is ready for departure.”

“And this, drink this captain. You've worked hard and rested well when you get home.”

One of the women gave Bayu a bottle of energy drinks, I knew Ronald and Lifer were giggling

glanced at me occasionally who was still standing behind them. Because my height is only limited to Bayu's shoulder, I was covered by the three.

I just shook my head slowly while smiling amusedly seeing Bayu seem hesitant to accept it. Then he quickly picked it up and handed it to Ronald, who stood between them.

“This is for you. You need a lot of energy for the task here.”

“Thank you.” It was Bayu's voice again with a flat tone that I heard when he was angry with me.

Geez, it is precisely with this attitude that women will like it. I did not see clearly the faces of the two women, but then Bayu glanced at me behind which was precisely in reply to a small ruckus from me. From the corner of my eye I saw the two women aware of my presence. They looked surprised and curious.

Then my ears heard the sound of rapid footsteps approaching, my reflex turned to see a man who

it seems like a teenager is running fast towards me. He almost hit me but I quickly got out of his sight.

Not that he ran past me, this kid immediately hid behind me. Both hands tightly

gripping my shoulder. I grimaced down feeling my injured left shoulder being touched just like that.

“Hei! You little brat. Don't hide!” I heard a heavy voice of someone, from the direction he ran earlier

there were two men dressed the same as Bayu and a middle-aged man like this villager.

“No! Just teach me martial arts! I don't want this village to be taken over again in the future. We are too

gotta be smart fighting, dad!!”

“Hei. Release him!!” The sound of Bayu's screeches turned me to him.

He was about to approach me but quickly this child grabbed my shoulder from behind with one hand, then his other hand took out an object with a handle like a gun but the front had the shape of a box. It's a shock gun that if fired, the target will be exposed to electric shock and make him faint instantly.

This kid is a little taller than me. He forced me to retreat until my back was touching his chest. For a moment I smelled a very familiar scent, the scent of the spice but I forgot what it was called.

“Dad has to approve it first then I'll release it.” Screeched this child on the middle-aged man before us. Considering it was still half six in the morning, the air that had been dinging had turned hot all around me.

“What happened? Why does he have that thing in his hands?” I saw Lifer ask the two soldiers who were chasing this child.

“I'm sorry we captain, he took it when I was preparing.”

“YAKK!! YOU GUYS ARE LIKE AMATEUR SOLDIERS HUH!!” I was slightly jolted at the scream of Lifer's anger, his smiling expression just now as if it had fallen out of hearing him yell.

The two soldiers lowered their heads not daring to look at their captain, I felt sorry for them but in this situation I was unstrung. They were all including the two female soldiers who were staring at me carefully.

The wood on my left is also slowly approaching without this child noticing.

“You can ask him carefully. They will definitely teach you.” My words tried to calm this child down.he tightened the lock on my neck which made me grimace more slowly.

My left shoulder feels so numb!

“Hei Grey, this incident reminds me of the time by the river. You're so cool to make it that way. He's been humiliated a few times by you.” Bayu's words shifted my gaze to her. Ronald who was called by his name seemed to look at Bayu did not understand while the man looked at me seriously when he said it.

My brain thinks fast, Bayu talks to me not to Ronald and again the incident on the river bank, I've

humiliating him a few times it must have been about Mike. I smiled as I remembered what Bayu meant and then I quickly kicked the shin of this child's leg until the grip slipped off.

After that Bayu pulled my right hand to hide behind his body and then he hit the hand of this child who was about to shoot the object at me until it was out of his grasp.

Quickly the two soldiers who had been chasing him immediately grabbed this child so as not to be released.

“Ahh My leg hurts so much!! Ishhhh!!” She looked at me irritatedly while grimacing her feet.

“Ohhhh you're bleeding? Geez!!” The cry of this middle-aged man sounded extremely worried. We all saw

the boy's palm was already covered in blood. But Bayu immediately looked at me and examined my left shoulder, getting rid of the hairdresser from there.

I stared at my own shoulder and sighed softly as my originally dry and clean clothes turned dark.

“Ck! You're bleeding again?!” Declare Bayu avert their eyes all. When he found out that it was not his blood, this middle-aged man immediately stood up and approached me.

“Inspend him! You're hurt by it! How is this!”

“It's okay. Don't worry.” I replied quickly seeing how worried this middle-aged man was about seeing me.

“Send everything here to us. You guys hurry home.” Ronald patted Bayu's shoulder gently, as he wanted to

calms this man who looks at me worried.

“Pardon for the negligence of my team members, cha.” Lifer approached me to examine my shoulder. I shook my head and

a little smile at him.

“You must be surprised yes.” Lifer softly spoken.

“Not quite a surprise when Mike shot me in the river last night.” I thought about Mike again.

“Alright I leave everything here to you.” Bayu finally say goodbye to his two friends, they shake hands.

Before actually leaving, I looked back at Ronald and Lifer and smiled slightly then glanced at the female soldiers and other soldiers as well.

Bayu and I walk side by side, I know Bayu is not the type of man who would be comfortable holding a woman in front of his coworkers. Especially when we travel to the flight place on this side of the forest several times there are those who greet Bayu whether it is between men or women.

Now I really feel Bayu's different aura as he works. “Wood?”

“Hmm.”

“I want to ask.”

“What?” Bayu glanced at me curiously.

“You knew that boy?”

“He's the son of this village chief. That man was also the village chief.”

“Ohh that? Then I saw a lot of soldiers here. What to chase after that big boss?”
