MY BEAUTIFUL SOLDIER
NO NEED FOR MEN

The photo sent by Marco, further strengthens Mirelle's thinking that the two really have a special relationship. At first Mirelle thought that Rafael was just playing a show to make him stay away, but he didn't.

"I'll let you go. I'll forget you. Be happy with Marsha, and rest assured that I will not disturb your happiness" Mirelle murmured.

After that, he went back to Xena. Yes, Mirelle really met a woman named Xena. He is a figure in black clothes that he saw at the resort while on vacation. Who would have thought they were now friends, even though they were ten years old.

"Sister, sorry. My sister called me earlier" said Mirelle.

"What's wrong, my order hasn't come yet" said Xena who came to a cafe to talk with Mirelle.

"Sister would have wanted to ask my decision about the big brother's offer back then, right?"

"Hm ... How's it?" xena asked while sipping her drink.

"Is my age able to take part in that?"

"Year one, you only need to learn literacy. Even if there is no practice it is not too difficult. At our first meeting, I was pretty sure you had talent. You can even settle down without a sound and I'm amazed by you" Xena said.

"All right, I want to. But what about my school?" ask Mirelle again.

"There you will continue to study like school students in general, even still get a graduation letter. But after that, you'll go straight into the military."

"Can I be strong by doing all that?"

"Yes, not only are you strong, but you're going to be an amazing tough girl, Elle. Be confident in yourself" said Xena.

"Then I want to!"

*****

"What do you mean, Elle?" ask Marco.

Marco is at the cafe and receives a call from his beloved brother. However, what Mirelle said made him mess up.

"That brother doesn't suit you."

" .... "

Marco sighed before finally saying, "Alright, big brother won't stand in your way. If you like it, do it. But ... Promise to be happy."

"Sister loves you" continued Marco before finally disconnecting their call.

Rafael and Yasa who were with Marco are now asking questions in their hearts and minds. It's just that the two don't want to ask a lot about Mirelle, because Marco will not give any answers to them.

"Mar, what's wrong?" ask Yasa.

"It's nothing, it's just a problem of teenagers" Marco replied.

Rafael is now busy with his own thoughts and begins to associate them with all of Marco's words on the phone.

"Is he talking about a man?" inner Raphael.

"Every once, invite Mirelle to gather with us here, Mar," said Yasa, "You too, Raf. Bring Marsha. Isn't she your lover?"

"I'll think about it later" said Marco, "I don't want any of us to be uncomfortable."

Without needing to be told by anyone, Rafael knew that the intent of Marco's words was directed at him. Marco, who was still a little unsettled, finally got up from his seat.

"I'll go home first" said Marco.

"Why hunt? We haven't been long, Mar," Yasa said.

"There's something I have to do" Marco actually left after saying that.

"I really miss Elle" said Yasa, who started eating food in front of her.

"Didn't you just go to Marco's place? It's easy, Yas" Rafael said.

"Yes it looks like that, but I've never seen Mirelle again. I even waited for her at school to say thank you, but until all the students came home, they didn't see her nose at all" Yasa said, "Try asking Marsha, he must know."

Asking Marsha was the last thing he would do. The more days, Marsha the more daring to approach her, even more severe than what Mirelle did.

"That's you, same lover alone ..."

"He's not my girlfriend, Yas" said Rafael.

"You broke up?" ask Yasa.

"Actually, there's no connection between me and Marsha. I just paid him to accompany me to the farewell. I want Mirelle to stay away from me."

"Wah wow, it turns out oh turns out ... You ruined a friendship, Raf."

"I know, but after seeing Marsha's true attitude, I feel grateful that Mirelle is not friendly with her anymore" Rafael said.

"Tumben you're watching Mirelle, you don't care."

Rafael smiled faintly, "I'm just wondering where Mirelle really is. Until he's never seen being around Marco."

"Around Marco or around you?" yasa Goda.

Yasa's question made Rafael cluck annoyed, but indeed Rafael felt he lost the figure of Mirelle.

"Where are you now?" inner Raphael.

*****

"Are you ready, Elle?" ask Xena

"Here you go, sister" answered Mirelle.

Mirelle exits her rental apartment and follows Xena, pushing a large suitcase.

"Have you packed everything?"

"Here, Brother."

"We're leaving now, Elle," Xena helps Mirelle put her big suitcase into a jeep.

Afterwards, Mirelle climbed up and sat in the seat beside the steering wheel, while Xena was behind the wheel. With the sunglasses perched on her nose, Xena looked absolutely incredible.

"Will the journey be long?" ask Mirelle.

"Maybe about three hours. Do you want anything?" ask Xena.

"Can we stop at the minimarket first? I want to buy something."

"Alright, later we find a minimarket on the road that is in the direction of our destination," said Xena and Mirelle nodded his head.

During the trip, there was not much discussion between the two. Xena focused on driving, while Mirelle threw more of her gaze towards the window. He continued to convince himself that this was his way of life and that he could definitely do it.

"Spirit, Elle! You have to be an independent, strong, and tough girl, "inner Mirelle.

Xena plans to take Mirelle to the edge of town, where a training camp is available. He believes Mirelle can be as he imagined, even though he does not want to force.

"When we get there and you sign the contract, you won't be able to get out of there at will."

"I know" said Mirelle.

"Thus ... If you want to change your mind before anything happens, tell me, okay. I'll take you back to town" Xena said.

"I won't change my decision. I believe in myself, I'm capable."

Xena turned her head to the side and looked at Mirelle, "You will definitely become the pride of the country, Elle. I've been convinced of you since we first met. Rest because our journey is still long" said Xena.

"I want to be like you, brother. Strong and tough. Maybe there will be a lot of guys who like you" Mirelle said.

"I don't need a man, Elle. I live for my country and for myself" Xena said, wiping Mirelle's hair into disarray.
