Aoi wagged her tail leaving a fine bubble and lost fusing with the water. The sparkle of its scales gave its own light in the darkness of the lake. It was seen that the light illuminated Aoi's path until it saw underwater vines growing around rocks attached to the bottom of the lake.
Every now and then Aoi seemed to greet the other blue sirens that flashed around her. The flickering of their scales makes the underwater lake very beautiful and radiant.
Aoi approached an underwater cave surrounded by shining green rocks. There was a siren sitting on one of the support shells attached to the stone wall in the cave.
Spring....
"Chairetismouis goneis. " (salam elder) Said Aoi with a slight bowing of her head and placed her hand on her chest, saluting.
The revered siren was named Amber. He was an elder of the highly respected blue sirens. One of the founders of the lake bottom kingdom to become another siren life place for more than 200 years ago. Amber is now 157 years old, but their old cycle will stop when they are 30 years old.
Sirens can live as long as 250 years while their tails are still fused in the water. When their tails have split and turned into ordinary legs, the siren body will weaken over time.
Amber seemed to smile knotingly displaying her elegance and wagging her tail giving a very sincere salutation. Gray white hair and eyelashes that are very pliable make Amber look very beautiful at the age of a very old. Although actually if seen by the naked eye, no one will know for sure how old the original.
" Chairwoman gie mou, Aoihan." (Greetings to my son, Aoihan) Amber lowered her head slowly giving her warm smile while holding a green crystal ball in her hand.
Aoi approached Amber, "Have you heard the news I spread to Vivian?" ask Aoi.
Amber nodded, "about the descendant of that darias named Audrina? I've heard it." Amber smiled like a relieved smile.
"Audrina can save our people. I'm sure it is." Aoi smiled very widely displaying her fangs that looked sweet on her face.
Amber was silent for a moment. It was like thinking of something that made him seem worried. Aoi who felt that there was something Amber was thinking about was worried as well.
"Is there something that's haunting you, elder?" Aoi asked worriedly.
Amber took a slow breath. He placed the green crystal he held on the stone that slightly went inside so that the crystal was in the right position. Amber wagged her tail to move her body away from Aoi and took out a thick book made of glass.
Amber went page by page, like she was looking for something very important. Aoi just waited and looked from behind.
Looked worried face Amber began to return to normal when her eyes managed to see something that was in the glass book. Amber carried the book and sat back on the stone shell next to Aoi. Aoi then approached Amber without being told and glanced at the book Amber was holding.
"Aoi, I know you must be very worried about Audrina. Given that Gloria seems to have learned the news that Audrina is a descendant of Kena" said Amber with a slight smile. He then gave the glass book he held to show Aoi.
Aoi carefully received the book given to her. Look carefully at what Amber really wants to show her. Aoi slightly frowned in confusion, not understanding the intent and purpose of the pages of this book.
"There's nothing here." Aoi said confusedly because the page of the book was indeed no writing there. Only the sign of the little lotus flower was at the end of the book.
"Are you confused, Aoi?" asked Amber who seemed to understand the confusion of Aoi's face. Aoi quickly nodded as she did not understand at all. Amber took back the book that Aoi was holding and her index finger touched the lotus flower-shaped mark that was in the page of the book.
A white light slowly shot out from the pages of the book making Aoi narrow her eyes slightly. The originally empty page slowly began to appear writings. Aoi was a little amazed by what happened.
Amber gave the book back to Aoi, "read it. You'll understand what you have to do." Amber slapped Aoi's shoulder, "do it to protect Audrina. Prioritize his salvation, then our people will also be saved."
Aoi nodded in understanding with the message given by Amber. After that, Aoi bounces with Amber and asks for permission to see Audrina. Amber who like to know the habits of Aoi is certainly very supportive about it. Although Aoi usually only asked permission to Vivian the news anchor, because she had met Amber directly she also asked permission directly.
"Sign Audrina with all your heart. I'm sure you can protect her." Amber smile.
"Good, elder." Aoi left the cave and stored the glass book in the mirror in her castle. It was the safest place that no one but him could possibly touch.
Aoi again flicked her tail down to glide over the surface of the water. The long-awaited moment has arrived. He'll find Audrina.
...****************...
Sringg...
Sringg...
"Aoi," Audrina said softly when she heard the bell that indicated Aoi rising to the surface of the water. Seen a happy expression engraved on Audrina's face, for some reason it seemed like she missed Aoi.
Audrina turned her head towards the window of her room waiting for Aoi's arrival. But he realized one thing, Zayn was downstairs. Audrina ran a little to lock the door of her room, afraid that Zayn might enter her room.
tok tok...
Aoi tapped on Audrina's window with her sweet smile. Audrina opened the window and immediately greeted Aoi with a slightly surprised hug.
Audrina screamed a little, "j-don't be, Aoi! Will fall." Audrina said while embracing Aoi's neck so as not to fall.
Aoi chuckled softly at Audrina's behavior and lowered her back down. Audrina seemed to sigh in relief and took a few steps back anticipating Aoi's aggressiveness that could appear at any time. Aoi tilted her face as she looked at Audrina's flushed face.
"You sick?" Aoi tried to get close to Audrina who immediately retreated holding back the pounding of her heart that suddenly thumped.
"N-no." Audrina raised her right hand to the front to block Aoi from approaching her, while her left hand held her heated cheek.
Aoi who felt something strange about Audrina's behavior held Audrina's hand and continued to barge towards her. The unprepared Audrina closed her eyes in panic.
"What's wrong?" aoi asked confusedly. He also held Audrina's right cheek slightly warm, he realized Audrina's body temperature was not as usual.
"A-Aoi a-aku-" Audrina still closed her eyes afraid to look at Aoi who seemed to be right in front of her. It felt from her breath that hit Audrina's face gently.
Aoi's hand turned to Audrina's neck which instantly gave her goosebumps. Audrina opened her eyes and spontaneously held Aoi's hand which was on her neck, she could not bear the strange sensation.
Aoi stared at Audrina's bead eyes deeply, trying to get her to speak due to the strange nature she showed this time. Audrina swallowed her saliva and finally lowered her head in surrender. He could not stay longer in this position.
Audrina exhaled slowly, "alright, I can't lie with you either, Aoi. I'm getting a fever, apparently from last night's shock." Said Audrina who confessed to Aoi.
Aoi's face changed, "You're sick? Already eaten? Let me make you some food, yeah." Aoi immediately walked over to the door to head for the kitchen. Audrina who noticed it immediately held Aoi's hand trying to keep her there.
"D-don't!" Shouted Audrina unconsciously.
"Why?" Aoi looked confused by Audrina's words.
"Pulse.. I-I mean..." Audrina has misbehaved herself. He thought hard to prevent Zayn from seeing Aoi and vice versa. I don't know what would happen if they met.
Aoi was getting confused by Audrina's strange behavior and seemed to be covering something up. Just about to ask Audrina they were both startled by Zayn's voice calling Audrina from outside the bedroom door.
Tok tok...
"Audrina? What are you doing? Let's eat first." Zayn said from outside Audrina's room.
Audrina. He could not hide Zayn against Aoi, surely Aoi also heard Zayn's voice. But, Zayn did not know Aoi's whereabouts.
Audrina quickly pulled Aoi's hand and pushed her tall body to hide in her bathroom. Aoi looked confused as well as curious as to who the man who called Audrina was. Not the voice of Mr. Karni or the voice of Key as his father Audrina, his voice is very different from the two of them.
"Who is that?" aoi asked as she held back the door Audrina was about to close.
"Sttts... I will definitely explain. Aoi hide first." Audrina whispered while fusing her two palms together like begging.
Feeling upset, Aoi let go of the door arrest and let Audrina close the bathroom door. Aoi's face seemed displeased to see Audrina was clearly covering something from her and was also dishonest to her.
While Audrina nervously opened the door of her room then looked at Zayn with a clumsy smile. Audrina, who usually did not close the room door immediately when she came out, unknowingly closed it just after she got outside.
"Let's eat, I've cooked bolognese pasta." Zayn spoke without any suspicion of Audrina's behavior.
"O-okay." Audrina laughed crisply, "let's go down!" Audrina quickly walked towards the back and pushed Zayn's body down. Zayn who got the treatment just laughed a little while following Audrina's wishes.
Emerging the idea to try Audrina, Zayn deliberately burdensome steps so that Audrina seems to have difficulty pushing it. Audrina who felt the urge getting heavier finally gave up and stared at Zayn's flat back.
"Well, hasn't the kitchen stopped pushing it yet?" zayn asked nosily as he realized Audrina was no longer pushing him from behind.
Audrina snorted in annoyance, "no idea, Zayn. I want to eat." Ketus Audrina passed Zayn who was still giggling because he managed to try Audrina.
"Well, just suck." Zayn said as he followed Audrina who was grumbling away towards the kitchen.
A pair of eyes seemed to be watching them from above. Aoi who could not help but come out and see who was talking to Audrina was a little regretful. He thought maybe he shouldn't go out of the room and stay there, so he didn't have to see Audrina's familiarity with Zayn.
His heart seemed a little unwilling with the scene just now, he could not bear to see Aoi's position being replaced by someone else. Aoi clenched her hands in annoyance and went back inside Audrina's room. At least from inside there, Audrina and Zayn's familiarity voice didn't sound as clear as when Aoi was outside.
As you know, Aoi is jealous.
