Pursuing the Love of a Racer: 4G GUYS
Verse-84

I succeeded! elijah thought he couldn't believe it.

Evan slams his motorcycle and dumps it, then hurls at Elijah and hugs him.

Denta blinked and gasped, feeling slightly stung at the scene, but then just froze staring at them from the pit line area.

"Welcome back, Dai!" pekik Evan happy.

Elijah stuttered and flabbergasted. Still perched on his motorcycle. Freezing in Evan's arms. His heart exploded like it was about to explode. His knees were shaking uncontrollably. An alarming joy ambushed him, knocking at each of his nerve endings. Make his whole body melt for a moment.

He hugged me! between joy and bitter. A most horrifying realization instantly appeared shocking to him, the realization of how long Elijah had missed the man.

Another awareness that is even more surprising—how close Evan is with Denta!

Elijah could feel a great tremor in Evan's body. That man is crying!

Their relationship is clearly not simple.

How close are they really? thought Elijah.

Do they have blood relations?

Wait up! Where does blood come from?

Denta is of Medan-Portuguese blood, while Evan is Dutch... Betawi? Maybe!

Are they best friends?

Then why are they so similar?

"Congratulations, yes!" Evan took off his embrace, then shook Elijah's shoulders, "Today, you're the hero!" said excited. "But jan hope there's laen times!"

Elijah is still frozen. Don't know how he should react.

Evan lowered his hand from Elijah's shoulder, then grabbed the girl's wrist and held her up high, brandishing her towards the audience.

A loud applause and a shriek of the fans and spectators boomed once again.

Denta sighed deeply and exhaled slowly, then coughed.

Dede and Gilang simultaneously turned to Denta with anxious gazes.

Denta bowed holding his chest and staggered.

Spontaneously caught his shoulder. "Lu gapapa, Dai?" tanyanya was worried and suddenly a man.

Denta shook his head while raising one hand, hinting at "okay." But the cough won't stop.

Devian glanced at him with squinted eyes.

Ardian was also watching him on the other side.

Dede and Gilang helped Denta fill down the promotional tent and sit him on a plastic bench. A pit girl brought me a bottle of mineral water.

"I'm fine" Denta insisted.

"Udah, drink first!" insist Gilang force.

"Voce esta bem-you're okay?" Denta's mother rushed towards them in a hurry. A moment ago, the middle-aged woman was still gossiping with some pit girls in another tent, not focusing too much on watching due to the hot weather.

"Estou bem--I'm fine," replied Denta calming his mother.

"No, voce claramente nao esta bem—no, you're obviously not okay," her mother said. "Apenas va casa-ayo let's just go home!"

"No-no-no," Denta insisted. "Estou bem---I'm fine!" He decided to stay until Elijah took the podium.

And as all the supporters approached the podium, Denta urged his mother to allow him to see Elijah.

The woman finally led him into the crowd with Gilang.

The cough is getting worse. Denta walked staggeringly supported by Gilang and his mother on the left-right.

Elijah stepped up to the top of the podium without taking off his helmet.

Evan and Innu stood on his left-right as champions two and three, glancing at the girl with squinted eyes.

Evan was suddenly stunned. Then glanced at Elijah in surprise. Elijah's height at the top of the podium caught his attention.

Elijah stands on the highest podium, but his height is almost on par with Evan and Innu.

However, Evan knows how tall a Denta is.

Although his weight shrank due to illness, it was impossible for his height to shrink as well, right?

Devian was right, he thought. He's too small!

When a local official hands the trophy to Elijah, Evan finally finds the real Denta.

Amidst the crowd of supporters, the man lowered his mask and pointed a fist at Elijah.

Elijah pointed the trophy at the man.

Evan gulped and froze.

The county official handed Evan a second trophy.

The guy blinked and smiled clumsyly in surprise. Then he glanced at Elijah. So, who is this guy? thought.

As soon as Elijah stepped off the stage, Denta began to give up and nearly collapsed.

Gilang was forced to drive him to the car, followed by his mother in a hurry.

Some looked at them in surprise, while Elijah was caught in the crowd, unable to see where they were going.

Evan stutters confusion between wanting to chase after Denta or chasing the champion.

Denta's condition seems pretty dire, but on the other hand he has to unmask the champion before he escapes and disappears. Evan is not sure if after this he still has a chance to meet again.

If not now, I will never know! Evan made a decision.

The crowd still swarmed Elijah, while the pit crew tried to fortify their champion and guide him towards the pit box.

Dede takes over his trophic to lighten Elijah's load so they can move faster.

Evan hands his trophy to Maha, then scatters and bursts into the crowd following Elijah.

Devian and Maha spontaneously flabbergasted.

Elijah looked around a bit, looking back and forth nervously. Where is Denta? thought riled.

As soon as he reached the pit box, Elijah rushed inside and snatched the helmet from his head and lowered it while panting. "Where's Denta?" tanyanya almost cried.

The pit crew stared at Elijah.

Elijah twisted his body and scattered again out while holding his helmet in one hand. Then swept his gaze in all directions, combing the entire place in the Paddock area. "Dentaaaa…!" hysterical screams. "WHERE'S DENTA?" He shouted at everyone who automatically responded to the shocked gazes of all the pit crews.

Elijah lunges at Dede and repeats the same question, "Where is Denta?"

The guy also just stuttered in response to it.

"Aargh!" Elijah groaned in frustration and ran out of the pit box.

Simultaneously, Evan was also running towards the door, and…

BRUK!

They collided.

The next second, the two stared at each other and were flabbergasted. Their gazes met and locked.

Evan opened his mouth and only stuttered as he could not find the right words to begin his interrogation.

Elijah gulped and looked at Evan's face with trembling eyelids. His eyes were teary. Stung by the desire between wanting to banish and meet him.

Evan blinked, his eyelids were also trembling and his eyes were also teary. He slowly approached Elijah and hugged the girl without speaking. Cry in silence while slipping his face on Elijah's shoulder.

Elijah explodes in his tears, drowning in Evan's arms and crushed by a heartbreaking relief. The helmet in his hand came loose and fell crackling near his feet.

Dede and the other two pit crews spontaneously rushed towards the door with anxious expressions, shocked to hear the crackling noise earlier, feeling awkward with his sudden silence, they looked out to confirm Elijah's condition and choked, then just froze in the doorway.

Evan tightened his embrace and sucked his face deeper, unaware of the situation around him.

The bodies of both of them trembled as their longing spilled over.

Dede exchanged glances with the two pit crews on his left-right, then turned and turned his body around to turn his back on the couple without a sound. The two pit crews simultaneously followed him, returning inside with a sneak.
