Finding You, Again
Eliura 8 - Most Perfect

The sound of the doorbell echoed.

"I'm the one who opens"

I exclaimed as I got up from the sofa and tidied up the green channel dress that was attached to my body. I was hit by a very severe nervousness.....

"Don't worry, you look fabulous!!" Charlie raised his head from the second-floor balcony while waving at me. "Have fun" he said again. I waved to him in return.

It must be Zeno, he was 10 minutes late, my mind was a little upset, while opening the door.

I almost suffocated in shock, when I saw the man standing at the door. I don't know him. He's not Zeno!!

The man was wearing a dark blue collared casual t-shirt, and black pants. A black jacket was in his hand. The man had quite a bushy mustache, not to mention his wide sunglasses that covered almost half of his face.

"Who?" many wonder.

This house is unlikely to receive guests without an appointment.

The distance from the gate to the door of the house was about 500 meters, so it was impossible for him to come here just to ask about the address. Not to mention the guards at the gate who would definitely not allow him to enter without an appointment.

Suddenly the man laughed. I recognize that laughter.

"Zeno???" my yelling.

He opened his sunglasses. Revealing those charming green eyes that immediately made my heart unsettled.

"You have a mustache?" I was a little surprised. He's handsome, but a mustache? Not a good choice to upgrade his looks.

"Because you didn't recognize me, it means I succeeded" he said casually.

I cringed not understanding. " I'll explain in the car" he said, smiling mischievously.

"So?" sue me, ask for an explanation after we sit in his car. "I have to go undercover so there's no weird news about us" he explained.

"Hehhh?" I don't get it.

"Lui..you..!" He seemed to be holding a smile.

"Well, I'll say it clearly, although it's a little embarrassing to say this directly with my mouth" Her face flushed slightly.

"Well, I'm an actor. And I'm pretty sure that I'm famous" he said, his face pointed at the highway showing an amused look.

"If I look like I'm walking around in a public place with a beautiful woman like you, believe me, you won't want to think about the consequences" he said in a slightly bitter tone.

The turn of my face that was flushed red because of the praise that she lightly threw. But I'm beginning to understand his way of thinking.

More or less that is also the cause, why Oscar is now rarely seen dating and cold to women. His position as the heir and successor of Delmor Corp made him get a lot of attention from the public.

There's no way he's asking just any woman out now.

And thankfully because of her now cold nature, no more women dared to ask her out on a date. And with one whimper from them, he will surely melt

Hhhh, this nature has not changed until now.

"Helloooo" Zeno's hand on my face immediately made me realize.

"I can't believe you're daydreaming" Zeno said with a sullen face.

"I'm sorry, I'm so dreamy"

"I'm really suspicious now, I've asked this twice, am I so boring?" tanyanya was still in a resentful tone. Face disappointed.

"No. of course not" I said hurriedly, I could have ruined my first date, before it even started.

"Sorry, from this moment on I will listen to everything you say" I said that more sincerely. She's been so sweet to me, I should at least get back at her

As soon as he heard my words, his face immediately changed drastically and laughed amusedly.

Fucking actors!! very good at acting, my mind. Realizing that her pouting nose just now was just pretending.

And, He's perfect!! .

He's humorous, a little ignorant, very sweet and polite. He opened the car door, every time I would go up or down. It's sweet, isn't it?

As the sense of unease re-spreads in my heart, I try to focus on paying close attention to the details of everything he does for me.

We had lunch at a restaurant that was very crowded at the time. He cut the steak for me, so I didn't have to bother doing it.

"You look so beautiful today" she said, looking at me.

I could feel the blood coming up to my head. I'm pretty sure my face is very red right now.

"Thanks!!" I said quietly, drinking water in front of me, hoping it would cool my face.

Enjoy Lui, my inner self.

She was perfect, I laughed many times at her jokes. This date was perfect, if only I could calm my heart, which was restless again, as I tried to get carried away on its charms.

We watched the movie after lunch, he freed me to choose whatever movie I wanted. And coincidentally one of the films that was being aired at that time was the film. Without hesitation I chose it.

"You sure you want to watch it? This movie is not very good!" he said in a serious tone, but I could see his eyes implying a tingly feeling.

"Yes, of course. If it is bad I will ask that my money be returned, I happen to know one of the players" I replied quickly, in a tone that was no less serious.

"Smart girl!!.. I like that" he said, handing over the ticket to the entrance guard.

The movie was a pretty, romantic horror movie with a bit of comedy. It tells the story of a woman who since childhood can see ghosts and make them outcast from her family.

I really enjoyed it, especially the character that Zeno played was also very funny.

Zeno plays a man who is very afraid of ghosts, but for the sake of his love he tries to overcome his fears so that he can continue with him.

At the end of the movie, I was crying. I held back my feelings so I didn't shed so many tears. But there were still a few tears that escaped.

For some reason, I was very touched by the character Zeno played. His struggle to face the ghosts moved me.

I came out of the cinema satisfied. I think the movie is great.

Zeno walked out while continuing to look at me, wanting to hear what I thought of the film. Her impatient face was waiting for me to speak, looking laughable.

"Don't be like that, the movie is very good in my opinion" I said with a big smile.

His face immediately looked relieved. "Ck. okay, but actually I'm a little disappointed" he said with a mischievous smile.

"Why?" my many.

"I hope that when the ghost appears, you will be scared and embrace me, or at least hold my hand, but I expect too much" she said, looking at her hand with a face of pity.

I laughed out loud hearing that.

"Unfortunately I'm not the type of person who is afraid of ghosts" I said with a laugh.

I'll be fine as long as there's no blood - hands cut off, or heads drifting-and monsters in horror movies.

Like the movie before, there are only ghosts who like to surprise behind the door. I don't believe in ghosts or spirits.

Another case with horror movies monster or gore. I'm gonna run out of the building the first scene they show up.

I laughed again while nodding. "Yes, you have to choose a movie that is more scary than before" I said in a laugh.

I won't say anything about monsters to her, until anytime.

"Yes..!!!! Then there will be a second date for me" she said, raising her hand in the air with a satisfied face.

Wait..!! did I just agree to her invitation to date again? He set me up!

My eyes narrowed at him accusingly.

"Yes .it was a date call again, and you have agreed to it" he explained in a cheerful tone.

"Sy base!!" I said with a smile.

Not caring about my annoyance, he just shrugged and walked back towards the car still with a triumphant face.

The road between the cinema door and the car park turned out to be very crowded. I have been behind Zeno a few times. I tried to penetrate the crowd with all my might.

It was times like this, that made me curse my petite posture.

Suddenly someone nudged me a little hard, I was limp, but before falling, I could balance myself.

But I was very surprised, because Zeno's hand was already grasping my hand tightly. He was the one holding back, so I didn't fall.

With a mindless alias reflex, I jerked my hand violently to escape his grasp.

A second later I regretted it. He just wanted to help me when I fell. I shouldn't be so rude.

His face was disappointed with my attitude. "I'm sorry, I'm just a little surprised" I said quickly.

I should have been really sorry for my rude attitude, but somehow I felt that my attitude was right. What's the matter?

After that, we became awkward, but Zeno was already back to being her cheerful self, when we returned to the car. His attitude is still sweet towards me. To the point that I feel bad.

I don't desire that.

He didn't try to hold my hand again afterwards.

This should have disappointed me too, but of course not, I felt relieved instead. I must have been completely insane, my inner self. I had disappointed Zeno after all, but I was relieved.

Zeno led me to the front door and said goodbye. "I'll call you to set our second date schedule" she said, raising both eyebrows.

"Of course !!" I said a little nervous, but I had no reason to refuse. Like I said before, He's perfect.

If anything breaks the mood today, it's me and my stupid hand, which suddenly has very good reflexes.

He then extended his hand to shake. But it didn't!!

When I welcomed the hand, she brought my hand to her lips and kissed it briefly. The shocked facial sharpness that I produced, satisfied him. Zeno smiled widely at that moment as well.

Without saying anything, he waved into his car and passed. I could only be silent in front of the door like an ornate sculpture of a garden.

Eluira... What's wrong with you? my inner.

Throughout the date, I somehow had to get rid of the discomfort and guilt that repeatedly appeared. Just remembering it makes me tired.

I have to remind myself many times, if there is nothing wrong with this date. I accepted it consciously, and Zeno was completely flawless.

I should be having fun and flowers right now.

But. it is precisely the guilt that appears increasingly heavy. Every sweet gesture I received from Zeno, that guilt came to sting the corner of my heart, time and time again.

What else did you ask Lui? He's amazing. Handsome, kind, even funny, my inner self. Get rid of this anxiety Oh my God!!. I might go crazy if this continues.

"Lui..?" Charlie who emerged from the door surprised me.

What are you doing standing at the door? I thought you were still chatting with Zeno, it turns out he's home!" he asked, not understanding why I stayed outside.

"Yes, he has come home, just now" I replied as I stepped in.

"Oscar's home?" I asked her to avoid further questions from Charlie. It is a Sunday, but not a holiday for a workaholic like the Oscars.

"He's not coming home tonight. He went to New York this afternoon, maybe he'll be home on Tuesday" Charlie explained.

"Hows it? Did you enjoy your date?" charlie asked, with a curious look.

"Of course, she's so nice" I replied as I walked up the stairs, I really didn't want to receive any more questions about my date.

"Of course he's good, Oscar won't let him take you on a date if he's in trouble" Charlie said.

I just rolled my eyeballs hearing it.

Oscar and all the rules. I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that he's been investigating all the things about Zeno. Oscar is paranoid.

I'm glad she's not home, otherwise she must have interrogated me now with details about this date, as usual.

Eh... Why can I think like this?

Tonight was the first time I went home on a date with someone, right? Why do I think I've experienced it before?

My emotions got mixed up in a confusing way. My head won't be able to hold on, if this goes on.

Ah.. stop!!! I threw away that confused thought.

There's no point in me thinking about that. I just have to calm myself down so as not to make Oscar worry.

Oscar is really busy right now. Several times a month, he travels to London-New York. He said there was a problem at the branch of the company there.

I was horrified to imagine that I was completely insane, because of my already unhealthy brain. Oscar will be very worried.

As a sister she is very perfect, too perfect sometimes. I'm sure he'll just leave the company's business if I'm sick or whatever? she even decided to go home fast because I was bored at home-.

I don't think I desire him either, my mind is upset.

All I can do is make him worry about me. Ohh.. The longer this daydreams the more it makes me cramped. I better take a shower and sleep.

I stepped into the bathroom, and began to splash my head with warm water.

"Forget all the Eluira" I muttered over and over again.

But of course the foggy memories that I believe to be the source of my feelings uncertainty tonight, came as if they were waiting for me to call him. That beach, that flower field, that green forest.

Thats enough...I don't want to cry anymore. I turned off the shower and walked out to my bed.

I grabbed the remote next to the lights and turned on the TV attached to the wall. I stopped at Animal Planet, as usual.

My interest in this show is a little strange. But after I think about it further, the reason I liked the show was because it didn't require any more thinking power to digest it.

I enjoyed how the show discussed the behavior of animals that turned out to be very interesting.

I really enjoy the simplicity of animal thinking which only revolves around eating and surviving in the wild with its instincts. Without the hassle that I have in my brain.

I enjoyed the show, as there was no excessive drama there. I won't cry to see a lion and crocodiles fight, this spectacle is very safe for me.
