The temperature is only 5 degrees Celsius at the beginning of winter. Archilles wrapped a scarf around Arumi's neck. Not holding back a smile find her cold girl without a coat, just wear a slightly low cut t-shirt so people can see the gift necklace from her.
"Is it warmer now?"
"You laugh at me!" accuse Arumi Chavez of being upset.
"No. Where dare I be," buzz Archilles Lucca put on a cold hat.
"I was wearing a warm blanket-thick coat, and then I saw that girl seducing you."
"I'm kelu because your sweet attitude is very firm. Eva won't dare me again after this."
"Did he seduce you?"
"Yes. That afternoon. Eva Romero says. He's in love with me. Ask .., do I want to be her boyfriend?"
"Really?" Arumi half screamed.
"Yes," nodded Archilles Lucca pleased to see her girl pouting.
Arumi Chavez pushes the body of Archilles, looking into the cafe. On the faces that watch them.
"Do I need to go back inside using staples one more time?" ask Arumi more to herself. "Yes, I should've staples his mouth too."
"No!" archilles Lucca held Arumi's hand, laughing at last. "Let's go!"
Arumi squinted at Archilles Lucca. "No rain no wind suddenly lightning strikes, you must admit bachelor? Be honest with me, Archilles Lucca!"
Red face up to the top of the nose. Adorable to look at. Unexpectedly use two fingers to push Archilles' forehead hard.
"Owh" cried Archilles Lucca. "You just dropped my wife as a teacher!" lament Archilles Lucca holding forehead. Sure enough, his guardian disciple was mocking him now behind his back.
"You're claiming to be a bachelor, right?"
"I told you you were my girlfriend over and over again. Eva thinks I'm hallucinating, kind of crazy. Moreover, you with Ethan Sanchez last night drinking coffee is also friendly. Eva's getting sure I'm just making it up." Archilles Lucca added. "I'm a little jealous of Ethan Sanchez's luck. Your Mother supports him and you may still harbor deep feelings for him without you noticing. I was like hanging on a fragile branch. You'll leave me one time."
"Do you think?" arumi Chavez asked, rubbing the Archilles' reddened forehead like it was bitten by an insect. "I just want to be with you." Arumi was lethargic, head bow leaning on the Archilles and grieving.
Arumi does not understand her own feelings. All he had on the Archilles was to want the man by his side, to see him and be with him through the day. He can't say he loves Archilles Lucca because he doesn't feel the same way he did when he fell in love with Ethan Sanchez. Not so feel the crazy pounding that makes it flower, expand and bud.
At Archilles it's just something simpler. Just happy with Archilles. They just flow, as they are.
"No no no, please don't be sad! Let's enjoy today." The Archilles propped up his chin above Arumi's head.
After that, they huddled bicycles along a small town surrounded by hills and in the highlands.
The sun goes down slower in this city. The winter damp streets. The sky is dimmed by clouds covering the light source. The wind blew the trees left behind a little foliage.
There were not many road visitors. Only one or two people are rarely found.
Arumi loves cycling with her boyfriend. Two arms around the waist of Archilles, hugging tightly felt so beautiful. Similar to romantic dramas. Leona came from behind. She wanted to go back to the inn but Arumi wanted Leona to come. So, Leona just turn on the camera and video every moment. The feeling is not so good about this. Miss Arumi is too daring to take the plunge by looking for Archilles Lucca.
Miss Salsa will think Miss Arumi challenged her. It's bad if Miss Salsa finds out. However, seeing the young girl shining happily behind her boyfriend, Leona just wants to understand Arumi Chavez. Maybe when he has a girlfriend and in a long distance relationship, he will understand the heart of Arumi Chavez.
Passing through the stadium is also the headquarters of a small-town football club that is not so famous but very loved even though they do not often enter the league, they are then led to a very spectacular place, which is very spectacular, just like in the photo that Young Vincenti showed Arumi.
An old castle enthroned on a cliff sort of cage created someone who possessed supernatural abilities. Arumi's brain can't get there.
How could? The building is like merging with a cliff? There is a walkway built there and a curved bridge over the river flows quite profusely.
"What is this place?" ask Arumi Chavez.
"Water Park." They stopped for a moment. Archilles pointed at the old castle across the river. "The one over there is a castle. A noble man builds the castle for his introverted lover. There they raised their children and lived happily. He's an architect. Now, that place is inhabited by one of his successors."
"The aura of love and warmth radiates from its towers."
"Yes, right."
"Emm, by the way, I don't see any water rides?"
"There's only one game played here."
"Is there such a place? Water park with only one ride?"
"Let's go there."
Riding a bicycle upstream. In areas with a very wide and wide water surface. There a few pairs of young people seemed ambitious to want to conquer the game. A man stands on a board device connected by a long pipe to a jet engine on one side. An instructor.
Something pushed the board into the air until the user could float far and round.
"Ugh, am I gonna be okay?"
"You're with me, Miss."
Archilles Lucca wearing a helmet, a life vest. He began to put his feet into special flyboard shoes. It regulates balance. The man stood there, on the surface of the water like Iron Man while two sides of the pressurized water board roared. He began to push up. Waving a hand at Arumi.
Archilles Lucca did not only master basic movements. He started to acrobatic now in the air without any problems with balance and looked very experienced. Sending a signal from above for Arumi to prepare.
Arumi's heart was pounding. This was the first time he had tried something quite extreme. Aided by Leona, Arumi takes off her cold coat, scarf and hat. Somewhat strange indeed, they would play water and wind in the cold air of this plateau.
"Want to fly with me, Miss?" archilles asked, standing in front of him by the wooden station.
Arumi Chavez barefoot came to Archilles who immediately grabbed his hand and helped him stand between the cracks of the legs of Archilles who wore flyboard shoes.
Both of Archilles' hands hugged Arumi's waist strongly while Arumi's reflex circumference of both hands on Archilles' neck. Trust in this man with all your heart.
They're up in the air. The last plan is more powerful. Leona on the edge taking video. Waving occasionally.
"You can do some beautiful moves." Archilles pulls off Arumi's hair ties. It was so beautiful on his hands and arms.
"Oh, I wouldn't dare. I was afraid of falling and falling. My drama hasn't started yet" said Arumi Chavez hesitantly, hugging Archilles firmly. Talk on the Archilles' neck. It was so clear the pulsation of Archilles Lucca's blood vessels was trapped by him. He endured the heartache. Cuddling teeth.
Arumi's mind translated what her eyes saw as something the women called *3**1. Arumi Chavez heads up avoid being tempted to go there. Fear of getting out of control and getting lost by attraction is powerful.
"I'm holding you, Miss. Lookatme! We're gonna be fine! You're gonna love this."
"I believe you."
When the pressure increases they are eleven meters above the air. Archilles Lucca took him in circles. Arumi Chavez let out a slow scream, closed his eyes, filled their shadows. Hugging the Archilles gets stronger as his waist is slightly raised until the feet are free of footrest. Undeterred. Now it is floating in the air.
A little away from the Archilles, he saw the man staring at him, commenting on a warm smile. There is something about the way he smiles. The man's eyes represent the content of a heart that cannot be expressed through words of love, and devotion. The message immediately reached him until Arumi felt the sweet aroma between the adrenaline-fueled heartbeat.
"Find the moment, stretch your hand out slowly. I'll take care of you, miss!"
Arumi's body was invited to spin around, his legs perfectly created graceful movements. The brownish golden hair played wind produced an enchanting beauty. The Archilles body gesture supports Arumi's confidence. That man will protect her. Overcome with fear, Arumi dared to let go of the embrace and began to stretch out her two hands.
"Yes, that's amazing, miss."
There was a clap of hands from down there. Turning increasingly faster, up and down, his legs returned to the Archilles, pinning the man's waist. Hugging tightly by the descending maneuver, very fast winding and salto. It was deeper in the neck of the Archilles.
Arumi screeched by the emotional shock, the real Archilles took her flying.
"You like it?" ask Archilles in his ear. "I dreamt today and thank God for coming true."
"Uhum .., did you just stop being a teacher and I stopped being an artist. We can start a new career that most people don't think of." Arumi Chavez began to feel dizzy and nauseous, but she also started to get hooked.
Archilles chuckles. "It looks like you're starting to fall in love with this sport."
"Yes," nodded Arumi, "and fell in love with you."
Archilles Lucca held his breath and balance, stopped moving. He turned to the girl in the arms who had now gone from his neck only to look straight at his chest. He could feel the kiss marks on every nerve in his neck because he had been goosebumps ever since.
"Sometimes, there's nothing in my brain, I'm just thinking about you" Arumi added.
Archilles hugging, he was not only hovering in real but also in figurative sense. And when Arumi looked up to him, Archilles wanted to deny his own desires. In the eye that is scanning it.
"Miss ..., I went crazy because of you!" the Archilles lamented that he could not prevent the fine swish along his veins.
Arumi pressed her nape lower until she bent down. They kissed eighteen meters in the air, on the highest peak of the jetski hurling them. It was short but the heart of Archilles seemed to jump out. This is their first kiss.
Grabbing Arumi's hand put the palm on her chest. Maybe he couldn't feel anything behind the safety vest he was wearing or he just wished this girl knew the whole contents in the depths there, which rumbled as the roar of water from his jet shoes.
"I love you, Miss."
Arumi smiled, writing the song lyrics quickly in her head. Eight lines.
He kissed me very softly
And he's my guardian angel
She's mine
My eyes were closed, no more taboos
Then he took me flying
It almost touched the clouds
The way he touched me
Tell me he loves me
Leona has taken the video, Arumi will combine the rhythm of the river and find the right tone in her piano.
And when they met again, Archilles needed to keep his consciousness because this young girl, Arumi Chavez, was more professional than him in kissing.
The face of the Archilles was dark purple. He's like a weathered man I'm dealing with Arumi Chavez's ability. This girl taught him.
Archilles' knees trembling. He'll suffocate soon. They can sink into deep river beds. He will be jealous of anyone opposite Arumi Chavez in his drama. He won't watch his girlfriend kiss another man. Oh please, what should he do?
"For your love for me, I will repay you with a beautiful song. You'll know when you hear it."
"You've finally found your cleverness. I'm so happy for that."
In the Archilles sling they returned to acrobatics before descending. Arumi will never forget today. He will remember it as the best moment of his life.
Returning home to the inn after stopping by the Monastery, the three of them used the villa kitchen to cook and bake meat. Eat an hour before dinner because the Archilles will take them to watch a local band concert in the city park.
There at last. Arumi at the front holds the guardrail, first go to a more popular music concert. Visitors jostle, this band is very popular here. Entrance is affordable and when the guitar quotes start, the visitors are immersed in euphoria. They memorized all the songs that were performed.
Everyone sings, more crowded in the refrain section. The Archilles keep Arumi Chavez from crammed. He imprisoned Arumi in two arms while the hands rested on the iron barrier.
"You can jump and dance at will." Archilles speaking from behind. Leona on the left.
"Yes, you're right."
"You're like a hardline fan of this band, Miss!"
"The music is easy listening. They're great, Archilles. Do you come here often?"
"This is the first."
Manuel Cesar is also in the front row with Beatriz. He was as usual guarded by a gang including Eva Romero who stared at the Archilles expressionlessly.
Cesar, carefully watch Archiles Lucca slightly reproach the attitude of his teacher who was bucin acute. Even compared to Beltran and Beatriz, Lucca's teachers are more reckless when in love.
"You're not shy about your girlfriend in public, Sir," scolded Manuel Cesar as the music ended and the band was still gearing up for the next song. "I won't admit you as my teacher when someone asks. You don't deserve to be a role model."
"The other side of Manuel Cesar is talking to me. You could be the head of the OSIS replacing Beltran. With Beatriz you're getting great. You got my support, Cesar."
"Don't bribe me."
"You're not gonna whip me to the abbot." Archilles reviewed a faint smile. While lecturing his courtship style, Cesar looked normal.
"Hold your tail, Master." Cesar replied casually. "Be careful with me."
"Come, Dude. I'm just an ordinary man with a heart." Archilles feigns fear at Cesar's threat.
"I'm not sure I want to work with you, sir."
"We meet once a month and it's very difficult because we're backstreet."
"You just confided in me. How cool of a man."
"Did you take Beatriz with Beltran's permission?"
"Beatriz will be dating me for a week. I won't bother them after that."
"Has your brain ever been stung by a jellyfish?"
"Maybe. Freshwater jellyfish are more impactful. When you're done with Beltran Domingo, it's your turn, sir. Teasing my guardian teacher seems more interesting," said Manuel Cesar, forcibly pulling Beatriz in front of him, imitating the way the teacher protects his lover.
Beatriz refused to show that he was uncomfortable but ended up with no choice. Visitors are jostling as Beatriz is often trampled and pushed.
Beatriz then resigned to just look next to Arumi Chavez who beamed. Cesar was just like the Archilles being hit repeatedly by excited visitors.
Archilles squinted at Manuel Cesar, at the mad mind and free will of this one disciple.
"You're gonna hurt Beltran!"
"I'm envious. You're very considerate of him."
"You refuse to be noticed! There's no point in continuing to argue with Beltran."
"You'll stop talking when your girlfriend is secretly taken by your best friend. I'm sharing my rhyme with him. He just had to agree to bear for a week. There's no way Beatriz will fall in love with me."
Beatriz looked back at Cesar shaking his head in disapproval. The girl's face was very cynical.
Explain the beginning of the feud Beltran and Cesar also the agreement of two students after he left the cafe earlier. Looked at Beatriz who was depressed but chose silence. Archilles doubts Beltran agreed to Cesar's wishes except Beatriz who had made the decision to protect Beltran.
Archilles returns to the busier Arumi stunned on the podium and becomes acquainted with Beatriz. They're fast close.
Follow Arumi's gaze. Turns out the girl caught Eva Romero not far away watching them. Arumi attacks Eva sharply with a warning until Eva stops noticing them. Archilles peaked the top of the girl's head.
"Miss, you're going to traumatize her coming to school" whispered Archilles.
"Tell me that she's bothering you."
"Eva wouldn't dare."
Concert's over. They went back to the inn.
"What time is the flight?"
Their meetings were always brief but full of impressions.
"At 9am." There is only one flight from the city to the capital. Arumi's night is going to Paris. "Are you going to take me?"
"I can't skip my class."
"Yes I can see. Your students are very difficult."
"I'll be here tomorrow morning and take Miss to the airport."
"There are a lot of bedrooms here. You'll stay with us" Arumi refused.
"Miss ...."
"I want to see the stars with you!"
"A friend up there and no star."
"Then we'll just watch it dark and thick." Arumi has many reasons. "I won't seduce you. I-i promise. Besides, there's Leona."
That's how they ended up spending the night in the living room watching a collection of funny videos and chatting.
The girl then parted and went to her room leaving Archilles and Leona.
"It's bad if Madame Salsa finds out." Leona drinks soda.
"Yes. He has a reason to kill me now."
"The relationship between Mrs Sanchez and Mrs Salsa may soon recover and improve. Miss Arumi's been depressed since last night against her mother."
"Get her for me, Leona."
"Um, yeah. Miss will be filming without pause until December 20th. And spend three days at Mr. Henriques' winery."
"Don't let Miss come back here anytime soon, please. Miss Salsa wouldn't like it."
"Miss wouldn't be here if Mr. Vincent hadn't instigated it."
"Oh yeah?"
"Em, yeah."
"Young Vincenti can't be with Miss Arumi often. The guy's got a lot of trouble with gangs. Miss could be in danger."
"All right."
"Go to bed, Leona. I'll be here till morning."
Around the villa by the pool. Miss Arumi's bedroom faces directly towards the city. There is no other eater because according to Leona this place is private specifically for Arumi by Young Vincenti.
Krak!!!
The twigs crackled on foot not far from Arumi's bedroom and there was a small scream heard from inside. The small light illuminated the bedroom's bedroom like a cell phone light.
"Miss?!"
Run in and go straight to the room. Leona came from behind.
"I heard something!" said Leona.
"Miss?"
Electricity turned. Arumi Chavez leaps down from the bed and runs at the Archilles.
"Someone just got here."
"Did you see it?"
"I'm not sure. I just slept and felt someone was peeking at me."
"You're having a bad dream."
"Uhhum. I'm a little restless."
"Everything's gonna be okay."
Archilles didn't sleep that night. He checked around the villa, found nothing. Arumi Chavez was not far from her on the couch, asleep hugging a pillow.
Archilles could not ignore the small things that disturbed his instincts. Breathe in relief by morning. He finally fell asleep.
Arumi Chavez woke up in the morning, looking at Archilles sleeping in a sitting position. Go there and touch the man's face. Don't wanna disturb.
Decide to go to the kitchen. Boil potatoes. When his head was lifted someone was standing outside staring at him. He creeps. Brown robed like monks but in pointy hats. Arumi turned to the middle room. Archilles moved slightly, opening his eyes.
"What's up, Miss?" The man quickly realized. Arumi went back to the pool, there was no one there.
Arumi shakes. Is he hallucinating?
They split up at the airport. Archilles hugged his girl. Pray it in your heart.
Wondering why he was scared when the girl disappeared from his sight?
Last time I saw you was okay
We spend the day
Explore a small town
Fly over the beautiful lagoon
Peace is like my love for you
The winter wind blows
Inhaling the scent of your hair in both of my arms
Pray for the heavens and the earth
Always watch over you when I'm not by your side
Because my world has meant more since I loved you
