MERCIA
5. He's my pal.
A helicopter flew towards the Royan forest and three people were inside, one pilot was apparently focused behind the wheel, and two other people behind him were seen discussing.
One of them both looks very striking appearance, his body is large muscular, seen tattoo around his neck, his face is rancid there are traces of stitches that look like centipedes attached to his cheeks. no hair grows on his head.
"Do you know where the boy lives?" ask the man with the scar.
"su. already Mr. Logos" replied the man in a suit full of respect.
"we also know the people closest to him" he added.
"good..wait for my next instruction, now show me where it happened? Ask the man who is named Logos.
"it's up ahead there sir, around that ruined tree" the man in the suit replied as he told the pilot to fly towards the area.
Not much to say Logos opened the door of the helicopter and jumped out.
the incident suddenly made the two people inside dumbfounded.
"HUH..! Is he really a human jumping from this height?" they ask themselves.
"how about now, sir?" ask the pilot.
"we're back" the man in the suit is still in a state of confusion.
the pilot immediately turned the helicopter back leaving the Logos in the middle of the forest.
Logos was already near a large tree that had been destroyed, he also observed several trees around the area.
he found some trees that seemed to have been burned.he turned around and walked towards the tree that was crushed by bullets.not far from where he saw the footprints and the blood that had dried up.
Logos followed the trail to bring it to the edge of the abyss.he observed for a while and then jumped to the bottom of the abyss.but when he got to the bottom he did not find the trail he was looking for.
Hmm.. someone helped him. he continued to walk through the bottom of the abyss, not in vain his luck was on his side.he found a cave.
The cave is located on top of it about ten meters, with just one jump he has arrived in front of the mouth of the cave.
He went in to inspect the cave.Simple visible some torches hanging on the cave wall. Logos snapped his finger, from his finger appeared a small fireball the size of a chimney ball. Logos turned his wrist and then pushed slowly in front of the fireball split flying towards the hanging torch.The originally dark room now became bright and it was clear what was in the cave.
Logos continued to explore each side of the cave, he found a stone shaped like an altar on the edge of which there was a cloth left with blood stains dry.he also smiled traces that had been lost now he found again. he walked towards the altar.
His steps stopped when his feet stepped on something to make a cracking sound.
Cracks.
He lifted his leg, he bent down to pick up something he had just stepped on. When he lifted up and saw it. he was surprised to see a gold-plated fragment. he hurried to leave the cave.
Royan university's.
"All class schedules today are over August attended. he remembered Julia asking herself to accompany shopping, she said, August also took the initiative to wait for Julia in the parking area and sent a text message to her to tell her where she was.
Shortly afterwards Rafael walked towards him, coincidentally Rafael's car parked not far from where August is currently located.
"Hey bro. I'm sorry I forgot to tell you, today I have to pick up my cousin so I can't take you" Rafael said.
"no problem. Julia asked me to accompany her shopping for clothes" August said with a wry smile.
"hahaha.it seems like you guys are not fighting anymore, your girlfriend is indeed troublesome" said Rafael.
"He's not my girlfriend" August replied upsetly.
"hmm you might think of it that way, but not with him" Rafael said.
"what do you mean" asked August twitching his forehead.
"Listen I don't see you're a fashion savvy, and I also know you're not a rich kid, think of the many female friends who understand that and other men who are richer than you, why did he choose you to accompany him?
"well, I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving first, I don't want my cousin to wait too long" Rafael said, patting August on the shoulder and then heading to his car, he starts the engine of his car and leaves August speechless.
August pondered what Rafael had just said to him.
is it true that way, is that the reason his attitude changed a little. Thinking about it made August's head a little dizzy.
"What are you doing here?"
August looks back to see Julia turning off her car alarm.
"i'm waiting for you, didn't you ask me to accompany you this morning?" August says.
"Not so!" julia answered and walked to her car.
"Well, we go home" August said, following Julia from behind.
Suddenly Julia stopped her steps, August stopped. Julia turned.
August is confused and doesn't know what to answer.
"are we going home?"
Julia approached August and her nose snorted to August's chest and neck.
"You can't get in my car, you smell like a girl!" julia said she got in her car and started the engine and left August.
August was dumbfounded. there were no words he could say. His brain was still processing the entire incident he experienced today.
still in his surprise.
a black sedan stops in front of August when the car's glass opens and a beautiful face greets him
"You need a ride?"
August bowed, he saw Aira smiling towards him.
"if it doesn't bother you?" August says.
"come in" said Aira.
August opened the door and sat down beside Aira.
Before Julia passed through the campus exit gate at a glance she saw from August's rearview mirror into Aira's car.
"Is that woman your boyfriend?" ask Aira while driving her car.
"you mean Julia?"
"No, he's my friend!" answer August flat.
"you guys look very close" Aira said.
"since our childhood we did grow up together" August said.
"You're the second person to ask that today" August added.
"Oh, I guess it's natural for people to think that way seeing your closeness?" said Julia.
August was silent not to comment further.he still thought about the words of Rafael and now Aira also thinks the same.
"by the way where should I take you?" ask Aira back.
"Let me down in front of the red building" replied August.
"don't you want me to know where you live?" said Aira.
"it's not like that, it's where I work part-time, there's business I have to do there" August said.
Aira stopped her car at the place where August showed her.
"hey this week do you have time? ask Aira.
"what's wrong?" August asked back.
"i heard Royan has a beautiful beach, will you show it to me" asked Aira.
"Alright, I'll take you there" August replied after thinking for a moment.
Aira smiles and asks August for a contact. August gives it. They say goodbye and then part ways.
August works part-time as a delivery courier at August's father's friend Borris's warehouse.
Mr. Borris allows August to work for him whenever August wants, but usually August works weekends because at that time many items that fill the warehouse must be sent immediately.
August walked to the door of the barn, but he abandoned his intention, when he looked to his left and saw a parked car twenty meters from Mr. Borris.
Hm. Isn't that Julia's car, if not wrong there is the largest clothing store in Royan.
With curiosity August walks into the clothing store and enters.In August looks around looking for where Julia is.
a few minutes later August finally found Julia out of the fitting room with a few pieces of clothing walking towards the counter.
August walks slowly to approach Julia, while the female cashier works deftly packing the clothes that Julia bought quickly.
At that time August was behind Julia, she whispered softly in Julia's right ear.
"You bought a miniskirt?"
Julia flinched, her eyebrows raised, her face reddened.
