MERCIA
14. Jacky's Coming.
After delivering August, Aira and Aruna continue their journey, but fifteen minutes later Aira pulls over her car.
"what's wrong?" ask Aruna.
"you're right, even I can barely see his movements" Aira said.
"do you know what really happened? how did that power suddenly appear? what's trigger?" ask Aira.
"i don't know for sure"
"i feel like his emotions are fueling that power" Aruna said.
"i don't understand" Aira said with a frown.
"i felt an energy suddenly emerge from him as the man told people to smother us."
"the same energy, as I felt in the garden, was just this time bigger" Aruna said.
"bigger?" Aira was a little surprised.
"you mean that power comes when people around it are threatened?" ask Aira.
"it seems so" said Aruna.
"i'm not worried if people from this world attack him, which I'm afraid they attack people around him to target him" Aruna said.
"i see, that woman is his weak point" Aira said.
"he and the woman are going back to the forest, I think he's going to try to find the Oracle" Aira said.
"what should we do?" ask Aira.
"let's just say, he won't find anything there" Aruna said, opening the car door.
"where are you going?" ask Aira.
"meet someone" Aruna said, then darted away.
"it's not polite. have eaten for free. just leave." Aira grumbled and then continued the journey.
Blue Lake.
The rain is still pouring down on Royan.
August sat in a gazebo, his body shivering, his clothes drenched.
Julia arrives, she gets out of her car with an umbrella in her hand she runs small towards the gazebo.
"You.. are you hurt?" panicked looks on Julia's face saw bloodstains on August's shirt.
"Julia calm down, I'm fine" August said.
August tries to calm the panicked Julia and almost cries.
"The bloodstains.." Julia pointed at August's shirt.
August then tells the story that started with Nora and her fight with Bryan. Julia listened to him seriously looking at August.
"Bryan, you son of a bitch" said Julia.
"follow me now" said Julia.
"Where?" ask August.
"your body is soaked, you can get a fever later" said Julia.
August said they returned to the car and left the gazebo.
just a few minutes, their car stopped at a small villa not far from the lake. Julia took the key from her bag and opened the door.
"This villa belongs to my father, I manage this place for rent to tourists who visit the lake, come in" said Julia.
"quickly clean yourself, use the towel in the closet while I'll prepare the clothes for you later" Julia said.
August didn't say much he rushed to the bathroom.
a few minutes later August came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.he approached Julia, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, sending a message.
"i asked Nora, thank goodness she's okay" Julia said.
"thank you, you've been protecting her" Julia said.
"hey. you're my woman and she's your best friend, I'm not gonna let anyone hurt you both" said August now sitting next to Julia.
"but there's something I don't understand" said Julia.
"what's that?" ask August.
"How can you be with those two women?" asked Julia with a sharp look.
Glug. August gulps.
"that's. that's. um. anu. e.." August was confused to answer.
"Speak clearly" Julia said.
"what promise?" ask Julia.
"yes promise what. um yes it is. promise it's debt. take it to the beach.emh first.our time has not been." said August fashion blank.
"we haven't what?" julia asked her hand to crawl into the towel.
"we haven't been dating, eh,." said August.
"are they teasing you? ask Julia whose hands are starting to get active.
"that's me trying to tease him" said August, who was already feeling dizzy.
"you teasing her?" julia asked this time her hand squeezed slightly.
"aaaaaaa is not that. aaa. I'm not tempted." said August no longer karena.
"so they're teasing you?" tanya Julia tightened her squeeze.
"aargh... isn't that either.. uh I mean you're the one who teased me?" august said, feeling terrible.
Julia stopped the squeeze.he kissed August's lips.
August was relieved that his torment was over, but after a few hours his waist was tormented.
Morning time. The Royan General Hospital. Vvip Room.
"How the situation is doc, I want my son to be healed, whatever the cost will be" lamented a man whose son lay unconscious in a hospital bed.
"Mr Longstaf, your son has a very serious injury, he will survive but he will lose his left leg" said Dr. Brownian.
Suddenly the door of the room opened.
Jacky..!
"Who did this to my brother dad?!" jacky asked. a killing aura emanated from his eyes.
"Nando said the boy was named August he went to the same college as Bryan" said Mr. Longstaff.
"he's in the parking lot of this building if you want to see him."
Not much talking. Jacky and two friends rushed down by elevator to the parking area. Nando is shocked to see Jacky and his two friends walking up to him.
unceremoniously Jacky punched nando in the face and kicked him in the stomach.
"The son of a bitch you let my sister get hurt" Jacky said.
"sorry brother Jacky, Bryan asked us all to accompany him to teach the boy a lesson, we were asked to keep an eye on him. he beat up the boy, the boy didn't fight but the boy always got up, Bryan asked for my baseball bat but somehow suddenly Bryan was like he was kicked bouncing around smashing the windshield.it all happened fast."
"Sister, I really wanted to beat up the kid, but seeing how Bryan was doing, I decided to take him to the hospital and call you" Nando said.
"Your sister's boss, the black belt holder and the national champion, feels weird if she gets hurt like that with just one kick" said one of her subordinates.
"what do you mean, you want me to forget?" jacky was angry.
"no, I don't mean so boss, let me investigate him a few days, I'm afraid he's not as simple as we think, we'll finish him later."
"all right" said Jacky.
Royan university's.
August walked into the campus holding a sore and bruise on his waist.Many people looked at him with astonished eyes, as he returned their gazes many bowed and turned his gaze away, as if afraid to see August.
Rafael immediately pulls August away and takes him away from the crowd.
"Bro, Aruna told me everything that happened yesterday" Rafael said.
Somehow August thought it was about the incident of suncream lotion spilling on Aruna's ass.
"sorry I accidentally spilled it" August said with a flushed face.
Raphael twitched his forehead "What are you talking about?"
"huh.what do you mean?" August asked nervously.
"wait is there something going on between you? rafael asked suspiciously.
"no. Nothing happens forget it" said August, his cold sweat felt out.
"all right, I just wanted to tell you, the news about Bryan losing his leg is already spreading all over campus.they think it has something to do with you" Rafael said.
"brother Bryan named Jacky has arrived in this city seems to be looking for you, you should disappear first for a while" added Rafael.
"what I'm missing for, doesn't it signify that I'm guilty" August said.
"Jacky is a member of the Black Eagle gangsters, the group is affiliated with the red knight group, even the government of this country is helpless against them" Rafael said.
"i'm not leaving, I don't have to worry, I'll explain to them when I meet" said August leaving Rafael.
"are you crazy or stupid? huh you stubborn?" rafael says he saw August go.
Hmm. It looks like something happened between August and Aruna.I'll ask Aruna later. Raphael said in his heart.
