Still kepo too? Yaudah enjoy🤪

...HAPPY READING 📖...

Arion's forehead was frowning in Sheila's resistance, looking confused at the rejection.

“A-I haven't had a shower.”

“Then?”

“I smell , Arion.” Ooze Sheila

Arion smiled instead. "It's okay, Sheila. You think it'll affect how I feel..."

"No, Arion." Once again Sheila retreated to dodge.

" I have to go to the bathroom and shower first." Sheila said quickly

"I'll drive you . "

"No need, Arion."

Arion's forehead wrinkled again . As she remembered, Sheila never refused when she escorted her to the pavilion. Just taking things, changing clothes, let alone cleaning yourself. Usually, they wait in the lounge. Before then appearing in the dining room simultaneously and going to work together.

"I don't want to keep you waiting. So I have to go now." Sheila walks down the stairs .

Almost any.

Sheila smelled the scent of her body filled with the smell of Erland. Arion would naturally be suspicious if he sniffed his body while hugging her.

" Why with him ? " ask Austin back as Arion looks at him.

" Why with him ?" re Austin

" Why ask me? He's fine." continued Austin

"He rejected me. "

"Hmm. It looks like she's having PMS. Usually women will behave unpredictably when entering the period, "Austin replied

"Ah, really? But.."

Austin nodded without hesitation . " Ck, how could you not know, Arion."

Arion just grimaced to the side of his head, "I feel like I missed a lot of things. Is that so ? "

"You remember Sheila. There's nothing big but Sheila in your life, right ?" Arion nodded .

" That means there's not much you're missing."

Arion did not answer immediately . The man felt there was still a wedge in his heart, but then chose to ignore it.

" Austin ?" Yasmine's voice calling from the foot of the stairs immediately made the two turn towards the steps below.

"Can you tell Mom that I'm not awake? " pinta Austin

"You just got home ?"

Austin flicked his palm in front of his face, "Why are you still surprised by Arion, you just lost your memory, not not understanding your best brother, right?"

Austin walked past Arion, his steps halted as his gaze caught something on the floor .

" What is this ? " Austin leaned over and picked up a shiny object on the floor.

Arion frowned, his eyes fused to recognize it was the necklace he gave Sheila that night.

" Sheila Necklace? " ask Austin

Arion nodded," Last night I gave it to him . Why is it here?" .

"Looks like he dropped it." Austin said

"Austin's? "

The sound of Yasmine's call made Austin disappear in an instant behind the door of her room . Leaving Arion who was still asking questions . Could it be that Sheila dropped it last night and looked for it early in the morning ?

But ... Last night when he was thirsty and running out of water . He went downstairs and didn't see this thing around here.

"Arion." call Yasmine.

"Ah, huh mah? "

"What are you doing here? " ask Yasmine

"It's nothing mah. Where's mama going? "asked Arion to divert the conversation

" Is your brother still sleeping? You mean your sister Austin. "

"You can check it yourself. "

Yasmine nodded and walked towards Austin's room which was next to the corner.

"Did you start working today? " ask Friz to see Arion's clothes are neat even though both hands are bandaged. Arion nodded, "Yes, grandfather . Arion is almost crazy if you lock yourself in the room longer. "

"This fast ? Are you sure you're doing well - all right ? " Once again Arion nodded with complete confidence.

"Arion can work with one hand. Maybe with that routine it'll make it easier for Arion to remember a few things."

Friz was silent for a moment glancing at Sheila for a moment before then giving a brief nod . " good.. "

"And Arion needs Sheila . Can Sheila accompany me for a few days?" arion asked who made both of Sheila's eyes fuse, staring warily at Erland who was sitting right in front of him.

"You have a secretary who knows better about work, Arion" replied Friz's grandfather

"Sheila has her own job, Arion" Yasmine said and glanced towards Erland who was sitting beside her, seemingly saying nothing . And even be stingy with the contents on his plate .Sheila looked confused .

" Sheila will help your grandfather. At the end of the day, Grandpa's work has been delayed because of your accident, Arion. "

"Yes, but there's still Erland who can help grandfather "

Yasmine speechless.

" Erland ?Did you decide to work here?"

Erland nodded, "Yes. Because I'm the one who's gonna replace grandpa's job. "

"Then your company in Singapore? "

"I can get it from here."

"So you decided to stay here? " one more time Erland nodded

"Why did you suddenly want to move here, now?" arion asked suddenly filled with curiosity.

" Now ? There's no difference I do it now or later . You know grandpa's age is getting older . And too old to take care of all the great things here . You and Austin are busy with your respective jobs . Ah, I forgot you forgot something important. "

" Erland. " The voices of Friz and Austin go together which instantly creates astonishment in Arion's eyes.

"What's up ? What important person did I miss ? " Arion Friz and Austin alternately . And apparently not only Austin looks frozen. Her mother and Sheila are the same.

" What have I been through Erlan?" Erland did not answer immediately .

The tension changes the mood at the dining table. As faint as it was at the tip of his lips felt his entire family seem to wait expectantly - please him .

"You know Grandpa's ability is declining . So .. I'm the one who will replace him . "

The tension soon dissipated replaced by relief, especially Sheila.

"Grandfather still hasn't fully given you that position Erland" Friz said.

Erland smiled. " Yes, Grandpa . Erland knows . Erland will try her best not to disappoint Grandpa.Not Arion and Austin have entrusted my weak position ? "

"I? " Arion frowning .

"Yes, that's the important thing you forget . Do you feel like it's not the right decision now? " said Erland

"I still remember, you helped a couple of times with a precarious situation at the main company. I know you're more reliable than both of us."

Erland nodded, glancing at Sheila who had just turned her face down to hide her nervousness.

"Yes, I was -"

"Enough talk about work . " S

Yasmine interrupted

help his three children to immediately set the contents of each plate and then leave for the office. After breakfast is over. Arion pulls Sheila's arm and takes the woman inside her car . Said he'd drive her to the office before leaving for his own office .

"Sheila?"

" Yes?" Sheila raised her face from the mobile screen .

Silence - silence reading messages sent by Erland . That the man would be waiting for her in her new room when she got to the building .

"Do you feel like you're not leaving something behind ? "

Sheila seemed to think, then shook her head .Arion was silent for a moment . " Lost something? "

Sheila is back in her arms . Arion wincing . A disappointed look on his face . Perhaps she had indeed lost her memory, but considering Sheila had never forgotten whatever gift she was given. "

"Why, Arion? "

With a slender smile, Arion shook his head . Sighs in the heart, when the wedge in his heart reappears . How could Sheila have lost something and just didn't realize it.

"Darling? "

"Y-yes? "

" After that night, could something have happened to the two of us ? "

" What do you mean, Arion?"

"Did our relationship deteriorate before my accident ?"

Sheilaberah tried hard to hide the pallor that doused his face with Arion's question so arrived - arrived.

"What do you mean, Arion ? Why are you saying that ? " Arion shakes .

"I'm just asking. Maybe I missed something. Is there anything bad or good? I don't know which is worse."

Sheila twisted her body and grabbed both of Arion's hands. Grasping those two big hands with her tiny, tender hands .

"Everything's fine, Arion. There's nothing you need to worry about."

"You sure?"

"Of course, Arion."

Arion fell silent, looked at Sheila's face once more then said, "Alright. You know I've always trusted you, right? "

Sheila's heart felt sliced with the trust she had even betrayed before giving it away, "You always have, Arion. " Sheila smiled gently but in contrast to her heart who was eager to shout at Arion what had happened to their relationship.

SERIATE..
