Clara arrives at Naval Amphibious Base.
Zeus emptied his schedule this afternoon. He has also reported to the NAB administration that Heilen will be one of the SEALs' representatives at the NASA FUTURE PLANS event in his place.
"Babys...!" clara shouted as she pleased, no matter the Seals soldiers passing by near them.
Felix and Heilen were ready to welcome him down from the military Humvee that picked him up. Heilen wears her favorite casual outfit.
Clara down on the green grass at the back of the swastika building where the E barracks are located.Soft white dress her choice slightly fluttered in the sea breeze of Coronado bay.
"Baby, I always miss you.Mmuaah..," whispered Zeus in Clara's ear then gave a warm french kiss on Clara's lips and kissed Clara's friendly forehead.
Heilen came late to see two lovebirds who were mingling the longing. Geon Arthur Yildiz's shadow flashed across her, caressing her face and kissing her, Heilen's cheeks met with red. He also became careless himself.
Clara then released her arms from the body of Felix aka Zeus, she turned to look at Heilen with sparkling eyes twinkle.
"Heilen, I miss you so much. Nothing has changed from you, you are still beautiful and innocent" Clara said as she hugged Heilen tightly. He really misses joking and laughing with a girl who is like his own sister.
"I mass you too, my sista. But when I stand with you I become dim, because the light of your aura is like a fluorescent lamp, "more so Heilen.
"Haha..Your ability to play the word seems to be upgraded now. Oh yeah, by the way, did Felix have a two-day holiday for you? " cool Clara asked.
"Of course it's done, my queen. He's ready to go with you to NASA FUTURE PLANS. Have fun seeing the madness of the future" Felix replied to Clara.
Heilen raised his glasses overhead, "I'm ready..!" pekiknya happy. He had long wanted to be present at NASA's big events that he only heard from Clara's story. A very secret event attended by important people and genius scientists. Very cool according to him.
"Okay, as I promised yesterday we'll have lunch together at Washabi Sushi in San Diego Hills, before you leave for Virginia, " Zeus aka Felix reminds himself.
"Yuhuu, we love Japanese cuisine" Heilen and Clara chirped together.
"Yes, I know. Let's go!"greet Felix.
They were driving a military Humvee driven by Felix.
They spent a story-filled lunch. Laughter and jokes between them.
One year and seven months Clara hadn't seen Heilen. A girl who had a lot of character resemblance to him. They were so close, that Heilen never hesitated to tell her personal things.
"Honey, Heilen now has a replacement Frans ," said Zeus began to tease Heilen.
"really??Hm... I hope to meet that lucky guy soon. Tell baby what his name is and what his profession is" Clara told Heilen.
"Oh, hihihi... Actually not that far. We're just getting close and haven't made a meaningful commitment yet" Heilen said honestly with flushed cheeks. Every time he remembered Arthur, it was as if Arthur was staring at him. It seemed, his yearning for Arthur was deep and had yet to find its basis.
"Ohoo's...I can already read it on your face little girl, you're really in love. Look at you blushing.. Ahhaha!" it was Clara's turn to tease Heilen.
Heilen rolled his eyeballs while pursing his lips, in the end he was unable to make out his sweet smile.
"Is he a famous and great doctor like Frans, FBI agent, CIA, Seals or bussnisman?" cecar Clara was curious.
"He's a painter" Heilen replied as he chewed on his food.
"Hm... He must have been a great painter to the point of turning your cheeks red when talking about it" Clara said with her trademark smile.
"One day we have to double date" Zeus said.
"Must!" firmly Clara.
"Huhahahaha...!"
They chuckled together laughing at their overzealous attitude about the man close to Heilen, but in truth it was not as clear as Heilen had said.
Even when he was in the crowd, Arthur's shadow never stopped teasing him.He endured such a heavy and overflowing longing.
It seemed better to face the enemy on the battlefield than to deal with his own feelings that rolled him like a storm of waves in the ocean.
They came out of Washabi sushi with a full stomach and a hepi feeling. The green military humvee drove Clara and Heilen to the airport.

Virginia, Monday March 14, 2022
Afternoon
Clara's house was never empty. Eve and Douglas' voice is like beautiful music that brings happiness in the house.
"Eve and Douglass would rather stay at home if Grandpa and Grandma - they stay here, both of them always have a lot of funny stories. Plus tonight Eve and Douglas will show Grandpa and Grandma their piano skills, "clara's story to Heilen while revamping Heilen's hairdo.
"So, Eve and Douglas didn't come?" Heilen made sure because he thought it would be fun if the two cute kids were with them.
"Yep, that makes it easy for me, Heilen," said Clara with a happy smile on her lips.
"Wow.. Wow, this is perfect for you, Heilen. Simple but looks very classy, elegant and formal, because we are present at a formal event," praised Clara who was quite tired from choosing a suitable outfit for Heilen.
Back and forth choosing the right Heilen outfit from his collection, they finally found the right outfit. They look simple but beautiful according to their simple personality and feel less comfortable with a glamorous look.
"really? To be honest I wasn't confident, not because of what I was wearing, but because it was the first time I came to a big event like this. It felt like a bird had just come out of its cage after so many years" Heilen chirped as he bit his lower lip.
"Hey, look at me, look me in the eye, hold my word. Beauty is eighty percent of kindness, self-confidence and self-respect" Clara said, slipping a few words of wisdom for the doubtful girl before her.
"Okay, okay I am ready! Come on when do we leave?" heilen asked excitedly.
"Now, baby! Don't forget to put on your mask, remember you're a Sealswoman" Clara choked as she reminded Heilen.
"Ready, cyst! You really are the female version of Zeus, hahahha.., "heilen joked. Clara retorted with a pursed lip.

Langley Research Center, NASA
By nightfall
Clara and Heilen entered the Langley Research Center area feeling a little nervous because the atmosphere looks crowded even though the event has not started.
"Clara, look at that big futuristic bus with the label Astrogun!" heilen was spontaneous when he saw a giant bus parked right in front of the main entrance, where the Astrogun label was clearly displayed there.
"Yes, I saw it. They are the main guests who will be performing on stage with hyper humanoid robots that they create," Clara said as she clasped Heilen's hand so that the girl remained in her company.
Netra Heilen perfectly rounded gets an incredible surprise.
'Well, really?is that stupid guy here too?I can finally see her again.' Inner Heilen.
"Clara, will the CEO of Astrogun also be present?" heilen asked very curious.
"That's according to the information I heard. Don't tell me you're also one of those handsome, rich and genius big fans" Clara quipped, knowing that girls are easy to cuddle with.
"You don't get me wrong, I only had a brief meeting with him while I was serving in Afghanistan" Heilen replied.
Everyone said he was a handsome man, as far as I was in the Panshjir valley he was very bad and messy, Heilen whispered in his heart.
"Heilen, look! It must have been the convoy of the Astrogun team, "appoint Clara right in the upper right corridor on the motorcade that runs on the floor forming the arch.
Actually Clara was just guessing because she saw a roboguard between the motorcade, plus the figure of her beautiful cousin Rossie Jane Jordan walking beside a handsome man.
"It's too crowded, to argue, I can't see it clearly" Heilen complained.
