Love Story in the World of Magic
EPISODE 31 Warm embrace

*Take his day

Luke got up first from Alin, sat down and leaned his back against the wall. When Lukas woke up Alin was still asleep on the edge of the bed. Luke then looked around, all the mess he made last night was gone. He also looked at his palm that was already wrapped in cloth, before no one dared to approach him as he rampaged. Even her family was afraid to approach her. For a while he looked at Alin.

"i don't know how brave this woman is. No one had approached me before when I went on a rampage, but he was so reckless that he even let himself get hurt." - Luke.

Some time later Alin opened his eyes and looked at Luke. Luke quickly turned his eyes away.

"oh, it's up" Alin said as soon as he saw Luke.

"hm"

"last night, forgive me" Luke said in a soft voice as he felt guilty.

"uh what did you say? repeat again" Alin's pinta, because he did not expect Luke to be able to apologize.

"Forget over" he said, throwing his face away.

Some moments the situation felt a little awkward between the two of them back then. Actually Alin had clearly heard Luke's words.

"nggg.. actually you don't have to apologize, I'm fine." Alin replied a little late.

"did you hear her?" luke asked a little embarrassed with his face that was starting to turn red.

"hihihi" kekeh Alin laughs amusedly.

"why laugh?" luke asked confusedly.

"if you want to apologize, don't be shy" replied Alin with a laugh while looking at Luke.

"wm..."

"Because you said you were alone, right? Actually you are not alone there is me, Gion, Reyhan, your family, other KIMASEF members and many more people who support you" said Alin advised Lukas.

"I mean... You will not understand my feelings." Luke said a little sadly while bowing his head.

"Then let me understand your feelings" Alin said.

Luke felt moved by Alin's words, he wanted to cry but he was embarrassed and held back his tears. Luke turned his face the other way so that the tears would not come out.

"how do you understand my feelings?" ask Lukas.

"Well... how's dad? I'm the same as you, so I might be able to understand your feelings. Usually when I'm sad Grandpa always hugs me and calms me down, it makes me a little calmer. Even it works on you." Answer Alin.

"Then do it again" said Luke giving a small gesture to hug her back.

"Huh?" alin asked puzzled by Luke's gesture.

Because Alin did not understand what he meant, Luke was disappointed and did not answer Alin. Alin was still confused by what Lukas said earlier, he began to think.

"hmmm, I said that a hug calms the feeling. And he says do it again? What does it mean. hehehehe" Inner Alin chuckled as he thought.

After understanding Luke's words, Alin finally understood what he meant. He went up to the bed and sat down next to Luke. Luke remained silent and did not look.

Alin then hugged Luke, as Alin hugged him Luke only silently felt Alin's embrace was warm. He neither rebelled nor rejected it, because that was what he wanted.

"If you want to be hugged just say it, don't be shy" whispered Alin in Luke's ear.

Luke heard it but he didn't care about it. After a while Alin let go of his embrace and wanted to go back to the room to get ready to attend the palace meeting.

"I want to get ready for the palace meeting. You better get ready, too." Alin said while standing up wanting to go outside.

"hm, okay"

"you have forgotten all my words" Luke asked timidly.

"like he isn't" Alin replied jokingly.

Alin runs to his room and gets ready, as does Lukas. After everything was done, they left with the other princesses and princes.

*The palace hall

They all agreed, Alin could not imagine how crowded it would be tonight. But there are 2 concerns.

" oh yeah... Will Luke lose control again tonight? And how's my job? which one should I choose... I guess maybe I can't see the show tonight" Inner Alin was full of thoughts.

He then thought for a moment while daydreaming.

"Maybe I'll accompany Luke later tonight, he helps me a lot anyway. I think this might be able to pay the bud to me." Inner Alin thought.

As he daydreamed, he did not realize that the meeting was over and everyone was about to disperse. The voices of the people there made noise, but Alin still did not realize from his daydream. Until finally it was KIMASEF members who left, when they saw Alin daydreaming Gion was reprimanding him.

"Hey, Alinn" call Gion.

"uh What's up Gion?"

"the map's done, are you gonna stay here?" ask Gion.

"Huh what? is the meeting over?" ask Alin to panic.

"yes, come on" Take Gion.

Alin followed them and went to his room. Because he decided to accompany Luke later tonight, so he had to study early for the test. Alin opened his book and sat on the floor with a stack of books piling up.

Luke entered his room as usual. He was surprised to be focused on learning.

"Lukassss.can't knock on his door before entering" Alin's pinta is upset at Luke who always enters his room suddenly.

"the door is not in the key" Lukas said lightly.

Alin was forced to hold back his anger, wanting it to feel like he was trampling on that person. But he held back his anger so that he could focus more later.

"huftttt...." Alin breathed.

"it's still afternoon why learn" asked Luke.

"Sunday ahead there's a test, so I have to study. And also tonight I'll be with you. oh yeah, is tonight gonna be like last night?" ask Alin kwartir.

"well" answered Luke.

"nggg.ok, I want to continue learning first." Alin said then continued his journey through the mountain of books.

"but why have you read so many books" Luke rebuked.

"It will be to learn the transfer spell" replied Alin.

"read this" Luke commanded, taking one of the books in Alin's pile.

Alin was a little hesitant, but what's the harm in trying. He read several pages of the book and everything he wanted to know was already in the one book that Luke had chosen earlier.

For hours Alin read the book, studied it and the culmination of his learning was testing. Alin tried the spell of moving goods but always failed. Because Luke saw Alin who looked exhausted he took the initiative to help him.

"Say like this" Lukas said while exemplifying how to swing his magic wand.

"Lookin?" Alin followed Luke's movements earlier. But Alin could only move items within 1 meter.

"Concentration" said Lukas remembering it again.

Alin then followed what Lukas had said earlier. He started swinging his bat and tried to concentrate more.

After several failed attempts, on the 7th time Alin succeeded and could move goods with a distance of 10 meters. That was more than enough to pass the test.

" WAHHH GREAT!! HAHAHA THANKS LUKAS." exclaimed Alin excited. Without realizing it, his reflexes immediately embraced Luke.

Lukas was surprised but did not let go of his embrace until Alin realized himself.

"sorry, I'm too happy" said Alin still in a jubilant mode.

"hm" slowly Luke's face flushed in embarrassment.
