It was a quiet Tuesday, everything went as usual. After breakfast, Alex takes Kinara to campus. It was one of his new habits that made Lorie hold her breath throughout the journey.
The man had already told Kinara to remain calm, but was also always vigilant. So despite her nervousness, Kinara was not too anxious knowing her husband would take very good care of her.
"I'll pick you up for lunch" Alex said as Lorie stopped the car near the campus gate.
Kinara nodded obediently while saying, "Um. Fine."
Alex smiled broadly, grabbed his wife's face and kissed her lips firmly.
"Smart girl" he praised before opening the car door and exiting.
Kinara's face flushed like a ripe tomato. She pulled down the windshield and wanted to scold her husband, but he got into his own car and darted away from the dust. Finally the woman could only grumble quietly while raising the window glass back.
Lorie took a breath and drove the car towards the parking lot. He was not sure his heart would be strong to survive the romance that is increasingly becoming this. The worst possibility is that he can date his own men, or get involved in a love location with the mafia that he must execute. Looky. His brain's starting to screw up, isn't it?
"Lorie, what are you thinking?" asked Kinara when she saw the bodyguard's face look wrong. The girl looked unfocused even though the car had stopped since.
"What's? Oh, nothing."
"I thought you were sick.
" no. Don't worry about me" Lorie said as she got off and opened the car door for Kinara.
"Thank you."
"Hey!" Lorie held onto Kinara's arm and pointed to her lips. "That's .. em, your lips ...."
Kinara lowered her head and examined her face in the rearview mirror. The look on his face changed immediately when he saw his lips as if he had just been stung by a bee.
"Truly a monster," Kinara grumbled as she took out a mask from her bag.
In the past few days, he had always prepared a mask in his bag just in case something like this happened. In addition to masks, there are also scarves and shirts with turtle neck models. Now the backpack is more like a travel bag than a bag to go to campus.
"To be honest, you two make me curious"
"Close your mouth," Kinara interrupted as she looked at Lorie with narrowed eyes. Her guard is teasing her more and more, and it's all because of Alex! Huh. So irritating.
Lorie grinned widely and followed Kinara's wide steps towards the steps.
"Slow down a little bit, you will fall down" he said when he saw Kinara jumping two steps at once.
"good. If I fall-"
"Hi!"
"... oh, hi, Raymond."
Kinara stopped and looked at the young man wearing the black t-shirt. This is their first meeting since they split up at the cabin house. Actually he was wondering because Raymond had not been seen on campus for the past few days. The young man did not call the number on Alex's business card at all, and it made Kinara feel bad.
"You haven't called my husband's assistant?" tanyakanya.
"My phone is broken" Raymond replied as he touched the tip of his nose at a glance.
"Oh," Kinara said with a suspicious look.
He raised an eyebrow and looked at Raymond. There's no way a mayor's son only has one cell phone, right? Couldn't that young man also use the house phone? Ah, nevermind. He doesn't want to be so dizzy. If the young man does not want compensation, yes.
"Then, come over for dinner this weekend. Bring your girlfriend, okay?" invite Kinara while blinking her eyes.
Raymond was stunned and stammered, "W-what?"
"Come to dinner with your lover" Kinara repeated.
Raymond's countenance was suddenly clouded, but still, he tried to show his best smile and said, "I'll try to come."
Instantly Kinara's face became sparkling and full of vigor. He went forward and held Raymond's hand warmly.
"I can't wait for the weekend!" yells.
Raymond looked at Kinara's hand that was wrapped around the back of his hand with an elusive highlight. The usual touch was able to tear his heart which he had been struggling to arrange since three days ago.
"Yes, me too" said Raymond.
Now he turned his eyes and looked at Kinara's face.
"You sick?" tanyakanya.
"illness?" Kinara. "Who's sick?"
Lorie who had since witnessed all the scenes before her while holding her breath, finally made a sound.
"She just had a kiss with her husband the whole way from home to college, now her lips are swollen," she explained with a flat face.
"Lory!" Kinara glared at his bodyguards. "You ... you ...."
Lorie ignored Kinara's almost heart-piercing gaze and again said to Raymond, "It's satisfied, isn't it? If you have, let us go."
Without waiting for the young man to reply, Lorie immediately dragged Kinara's hand towards her class. Somehow he always had the urge to go berserk whenever he saw Raymond approaching Kinara.
You shameless brat. Obviously a man's wife, still being bullied!
"You're so annoying!" hiss Kinara while trying to release the checks on his hands.
"Better so than the lord rampaging."
Lorie turned her head back to make sure they were already quite a distance away from Raymond. After being convinced the young man was already out of sight, he let go of his hand and let Kinara walk on her own.
Kinara hissed annoyed and said, "Alex won't be angry for no reason. I just want to .. wait, why is your face like a jealous person?"
"W-what do you mean? Don't make it up!" Lorie turned her face nervously. "What jealousy?"
"You like Raymond?"
"No!" sangkal Lorie fast. As fast as the pounding in his crazy heart.
"I'm not jealous, just upset. That'll be different, '" he continued.
Suddenly all of Kinara's annoyance evaporated. Now he giggled amusedly while staring at the face of Lorie who met pink.
"Related by jealousy?" tanyanya then satisfied. Finally he could go back to pranking this bodyguard.
"I'm sorry he keeps bothering you."
Kinara chuckled, then hugged Lorie tightly and said, "That's called jealousy, my dear Lorie .. ah, I'm so happy .. it turns out your heart is still functioning well."
"I'm really very happy. Support you! The spirit!" move again before entering the laboratory.
Lorie was still glued to her place even though Kinara had long since abandoned her. After being able to return to thinking clearly, the girl pressed her chest with her right hand. Debaran in there still has not subsided.
It felt like when Benji did the same thing, I didn't give this kind of reaction. Is there something wrong with me?

Alex researched the blue print that lay on the table for the last few times. He doesn't want anyone to miss or fail. Do not let there be the slightest mistake because Kinara's life is at stake.
"Recheck all ammunition, security of emergency routes for my wife, also the readiness of backup plans if all does not go well" he ordered three men standing firmly before him.
"Okay, sir," the men replied in unison.
"If my wife does not survive, then none of you will survive. Understood?"
"Understand me, sir."
"Good."
The man got up from his chair and grabbed his long range DXL-3 sniper that was leaning on the side of the table. He walked to the window and took aim at the building which was about three kilometers from the Jotuns Corps. The 42-storey building is very close. All this time his enemy was right in front of his eyes whenever he stood by the window, and he only knew it now.
Surely bedeba*h thinks himself very clever. Hmh!
"Young Master," called one of the bodyguards in the room, "Mr Billy started moving."
"Supervise her movements and report to me."
"Good."
Alex picks up his phone and sends Kinara a message:
Baby, prepare.
Ready or not, the enemy is coming. All they have to do is work together in a team. After all, he was pretty sure his wife could do her job well.
Baby, let's fight together....
