I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
85. Suspicions began to appear

'*What is this? What kind of coincidence is this? There's no way he was the guy in the jacket that time, right? Bram couldn't possibly have hurt Ariel? But why is the situation like this*?' inner Joel.

"Well,,,!"

Unknowingly Joel scratched his own finger with a knife in his hand as he stared at Ariel after hearing her words.

"Aish," Joel immediately lowered his head to look at his finger while shaking his hand.

"Hey, what are you doing," cried Ariel immediately approached Joel.

"It's nothing, it's just a small scratch" Joel answered immediately draining the water in the wastefel to clean the blood out.

Ariel pulled Joel's hand to look at the wound.

"In a moment," he said before turning around leaving Joel and returning with a plaster wound in his hand.

Ariel again grabs Joel's hand and cleans the blood that is still coming out.

"Is this because you're not wearing your glasses or because you're thinking about something?" ariel looked up at Joel after covering her wound with plaster.

"You're not the one who's going to do something reckless" he added.

"My mind is a little distracted" replied Joel.

"And what is it?" search Ariel.

"Can we talk about that later? I'll finish the cooking first" said Joel.

"Let me help," Ariel bargained.

"No! You just sit down, and wait until I'm done. I'll be done anyway, soon" said Joel.

"But_,,,"

"Just sit down, I want to ask you something" Joel cut in half.

"Alright," Ariel sighed according to sitting down.

"You think if I fight Bram physically, who's superior?" ask Joel.

Joel started to turn on the stove and continued his cooking after washing all the vegetables he cut.

"Eeii, what the fuck is the question, why ask like_,,,"

"Jawab it Ariel," cut Joel.

Ariel looked at Joel who was waiting for his answer with a serious face, but that was precisely the problem that made Ariel confused to answer.

"What do you mean if you fight Bram?" ask Ariel to make sure.

Joel nodded for sure, making Ariel widen her eyes.

"Okey, please don't take it personally. I don't know what you're capable of, but you can say, you're no match for Bram" Ariel said.

"It doesn't mean I doubt your abilities" Ariel said quickly.

"But Bram is very skilled in that, even if you are also skilled, you are still under Bram" he added.

"How do you know I'm under him?" joel asked trying to suppress his emotions.

"Simple, I know from the hands of the two of you, and when your hands hold my hands, I can feel the difference. Unlike him, you are not the one who will use violence" Ariel explained.

Joel fell silent, his heart rumbled, not because Ariel was flattering Bram in front of him, but because everything that happened seemed connected.

The person who was going to kidnap Ariel that night seemed to be twisted again in front of his eyes, but he also did not want to draw conclusions too quickly, and made Ariel again misunderstand him.

A lot of things happened in the last few days, and it almost took Ariel away from her. But, their relationship returned well also did not escape the help of Bram who mediated them.

Joel thought hard, thinking about the possibilities of what might happen with the current situation. But what can he say?.

"Hey, I don't mean to compare you to her" said Ariel, returning to Joel, who seemed to be thinking about something.

"The two of you are indeed much different, but you also have the same thing that each other has," explained Ariel. "Just like you, Bram isn't a person who has a good relationship with his parents, either,"

"You have things that he can't do, and vice versa" said Ariel grabbing Joel's hand, then looking at him.

"What if in the end I can't do all the things he can do even if it's simple? What if he beats me on everything?" ask Joel.

Actually that is not what Joel wants to say to Ariel, but he also does not want Ariel to think about what is in his mind. And if it would drag Ariel into danger, then he would not be able to forgive himself.

"If it will, let it be. What's problem? Ignore it, "Ariel replied.

Joel looked at Ariel slightly surprised by her answer.

"He wants to be anything and better at anything, but the person I love is standing in front of me right now. Why should I look the other way if being by your side is enough for me?" keep Ariel.

"Stop thinking about everything Bram has and everything he can do. If in the end you're the one who did everything for me" he added.

Joel looked at Ariel with a stare and thank you. His feelings for Ariel grew deeper.

"And you know what's interesting?" suddenly Ariel said.

"What?" Joel frowned.

Ariel tiptoed with her arms around Joel's neck, then glued her face together. As their faces drew closer, Ariel smiled.

"Feel you black because you didn't turn off the fire" Ariel said with a laugh. "Is it a natural color?" coherent

While Ariel had moved away from Joel while laughing.

"Unfortunately, I refuse so much if I have to eat that chunk of charcoal," Ariel stuck out her tongue.

"ARIELLLLL,,,,!" Joel growled with anxiety at Ariel who continued to tease him.

Joel ignores his cooking and turns to chase after Ariel. The chase action also took place.

Ariel circles the sofa to avoid Joel, but with one jump, Joel intercepts Ariel by jumping over the sofa. Joel catches Ariel's wrist and pulls Ariel's body towards her.

Circling her hands around Ariel's waist, to lock her movements, and begin to tickle her body.

"Okay, geez, already, let go of me," Ariel's pinta kept laughing in amusement.

"No way," Joel continued to tickle Ariel.

"Well,, I give up,, I've, Aaahh, ha, have, already,,, stop, Joelll,,," Ariel gave up, unable to move due to Joel's hand lock.

Ariel adjusted her breathing after Joel completely stopped. Their gazes locked onto each other, then smiled. Joel pressed his forehead against Ariel's forehead, chuckling softly without letting Ariel out of her hand.

"Now what?" ask Joel.

"Order food only," Ariel suggested.

"It's your fault that you're in two different places at the same time" Ariel said.

"All right, I admit it. I'll order the food," said Joel.

Joel releases Ariel and pulls out her phone. He ordered food for the two of them and sat down on the sofa.

Instantly he gasped when he saw the watch on the table, the watch he recognized, the same watch as the man's watch.

'I'm sure it's the same watch, how can it be here?' inner Joel.

"Ariell," call Joel.

"Uhm,,,?" ariel who was gulping water from a glass.

"Whose hand is this?" ask Joel.

"Oh, that, that, Bram's. That's why I rushed out because Bram dropped it. I don't think he realized it was falling, but when I wanted to chase him you were in front of the door" Ariel said as she walked up to Joel.

"Why?" ariel asked unsuspectingly.

"It's nothing, just a little interested in the clock" said Joel.

"You don't fit the clock, I'll find a better fit later" said Ariel sitting next to Joel and putting a glass on the table.

"Heee,, really? The weekend streets don't seem to be going bad" Joel said, putting the watch back on the table.

"Actually, I wanted to take you to Paris, I got an invitation from Albert. What say?" bargain Ariel with a big smile on her lips.

"Albert?" reload Joel frowned.

"The guy who offered me to join the orchestra, remember?" Ariel Clearly.

"Ahh, she. Since when have you been in contact with her?" search Joel.

"It hasn't been long, actually. He was a fun person when he was chatting. And we talked a lot about musical instruments" Ariel said.

"I also want to learn other musical instruments, and they happen to be one group. So, I asked about the performance, and I was willing to fill out the place where their original piano taught me to play another instrument" Ariel explained.

"And, you know what? They gave me two tickets, if at night I would play music, then during the day you can surf," said Ariel with sparkling eyes.

"Should I be jealous of a musical instrument?" grouse Joel.

"Maybe," teased Ariel.

Joel patted his forehead, then laughed. Realizing that his lover was only excited when talking about music, but was flat when he mentioned Albert's name in front of him.

"So, how?" ariel asked again as she opened her eyes expectantly.

"How can I refuse if you've put on a face like that" said Joel.

"Ahhhh,, happy," cried Ariel immediately hugged Joel.

'Better I don't say about it to her, I'll investigate it myself,' Joel's inner smile returned Ariel's embrace.

Their vacation plans start planning tomorrow.
