Austin just keeps adding to their motorcycle. Even more so when several cars appeared behind them. Like they were chasing them. Austin watched the cars from the rearview mirror. Norah turned her head back. He also knew that the car behind them was chasing them. But Norah can't do much even now that he carries a firearm.
“Now where does he want to take me? Is this one of his tricks to frame me? He knows that I'm Zion Zein's brother. The Gold Dragon Leader? Then he wanted to arrest me this way? Want to make me a prisoner like what she did to Daisy?” accuse Norah in the heart.
DUARR
Norah closed her eyes for a moment when she heard gunshots. Austin turned their motorcycle into a narrow alley. Only a motorcycle can pass. The cars stopped before looking for another way to catch Austin. Without Austin realizing it, the alley he chose was a collapsed road. The man stopped the speed of his motorcycle in front of the towering wall.
Norah quickly went down. He's getting convinced that Austin wants to frame him. The proof is now that he's taken to a location like this. Besides being quiet, far away from the exit. Norah is ready to take out his firearm. If indeed he was trapped, Norah had to shoot Austin in order to escape.
“I'm sorry,” said Austin quietly. Norah who had wanted to shoot now kept his gun again. The woman cleared her throat and looked the other way. “Sorry you said?” ask Norah back.
Austin took a long breath. He looked at Norah's face intently. “What we have met before?”
“Oh yes, we have never met in person like this. What am I afraid of?” norah murmured in the heart. “No. I don't feel like I've ever met you,” Norah replied with a calm expression to keep Austin from suspecting.
“Have you ever lived in America, Miss? Or just a vacation there?” ask Austin again.
“He must have remembered my face because I took his parents to the hospital. But I can't confess. After all he is still in doubt,” Norah said in his heart. “Why are they chasing you? Did you just steal?” norah asked Austin not to focus on his face.
“They want to kill me. They're the men of a mafia gang,” explained Austin as it is.
“Mafia gang?” chirps Norah slowly.
Austin nodded. “Yes, mafia gang. I have a project in town. In the middle of the road my car broke down and they attacked. I ran until we finally met,” explained Austin.
Norah still did not believe Austin's answer. Wouldn't it be true that this man before him was Austin, that man was already fighting everyone who intended to harm him? He is also the leader of a mafia gang. Then, why did he have to run away and run away like a coward?
“Nona, are you a citizen here?” ask Austin again. He picked up his phone like he was texting someone.
“Ya,” Norah replied.
Austin looked at Norah. The man put his phone in his pocket. He extended his hand to get acquainted with Norah. “I Austin. Austin Clark.”
Norah glanced at the hand of Austin who was now in front of her. The woman hesitated. However, in order for Austin to be unsuspecting, he was forced to introduce himself. “I Norah.
Austin still does not want to take off Norah's hand which is now in his hand. Suddenly, she was fascinated to see Norah's beauty. Women who are simple yet have such a strong appeal. Austin loves to see women riding motorcycles like Norah. It felt like he had met his soul mate whom he had been looking for all this time.
“This woman is very beautiful,” Praise Austin in heart.
Norah glanced at Austin's hand that was covered in red liquid. Norah pulled Austin's hand and examined it carefully.
“Did you get shot?” ask Norah to worry. He believes the bullet landed in Austin's arm when they were on the road. Before riding on a motorcycle, the man showed no signs of being shot.
Austin just nodded slowly, he did not even want to answer Norah's question because he was too engrossed in enjoying Norah's beauty.
“You don't want to go to the hospital, Mr Austin?” tawar Norah's. “I'll take you.”
“No! Someone was already on the way to pick me up, Norah,” replied Austin. The man looked towards the road where they had appeared earlier. “It seems they no longer exist. Let's get out of this narrow alley.”
Norah took a deep breath and took the handkerchief stored in her pants pocket.
“Come here, I'll stop the scolding.” Unpermissioned, Norah tied Austin's wounds with her little handkerchief. Austin just kept quiet, as he continued to look at Norah's face. The faces of the two became even closer as Norah tied the handkerchief in Austin's hand.
“Alright, it's much better.” Norah smiled for a moment. “Now, you can hold out until the person who picked you up arrives.”
“Thank you,” replied Austin still looking at Norah's face.
“Can we leave now?” asked Norah without further ado.
Austin nodded. He's riding on a motorcycle again. The man wanted to make sure Norah was in a safe place before leaving her. Austin does not want Norah to be in danger after helping him.
Norah received the business card and read it for a while. After that he put the business card into his pants pocket. “Alright,” answer.
“Go. I'll get in the car after you leave,” pinta Austin.
Norah immediately put on her helmet and climbed onto the motorcycle. The woman looked at Austin again before taking off her motorcycle. The chocolate he had bought had gone somewhere. Norah doesn't even remember where the chocolate fell. Before getting too far from Austin, Norah still had a glance at Austin through his motorcycle rearview.
“He is Austin. But, why did he change so quickly?” norah murmured in the heart. He increased the speed of his motorcycle because he did not want to make his GrandNa worried at home.
Upon arrival at home, Serena was already standing at the door. Norah smiled before getting off the motorcycle. He went back to the mini market where he bought chocolate. While carrying her groceries, Norah made a sound first.
“GrandNa haven't slept?”
“Darling, why so long? GrandNa is worried,” replied Serena. She immediately hugged Norah before inviting him in. “Do you buy the chocolate outside the city?” keep Serena on again.
Norah laughed at hearing that. “No, GrandNa. Back then Norah all around the city,” replied Norah just from the beginning.
“But just said goodbye to buying chocolate,” protest Serena again.
“Ya .. forgive Norah yes GrandNa.” Norah guided her GrandNa to a wheelchair. He knew that his GrandNa must be exhausted from standing there waiting for him for too long.
“Norah, GrandNa can be by yourself. Make hot chocolate and go to bed. It's night,” command Serena. He pressed a button on his wheelchair until the wheelchair walked on its own. Norah was still standing in front of the stairs while looking towards Serena.
“Gratitude GrandNa unsuspecting. If he gets suspicious, he could. Where I'm not good at lying in front of GrandNa anymore,” Norah muttered inwardly.

Austin stepped swiftly inside the house without caring for the bowed bodyguard respectfully welcoming him. The more he accelerated towards the room. A middle-aged man stepped quickly towards the kitchen to look for medicines. He knows Austin's hurt. That way he wants to treat Austin's wounds.
Inside the room, Austin forcibly opened his tie. Throw the black suit in any direction. Austin opened the white shirt that had turned red due to being exposed to his own blood slowly. The man looked at his body which was now in front of the mirror. There was a small brown cloth now tied to his right hand. He smiled again when he remembered Norah.
“The woman is very beautiful,” compliments.
Austin took a piece of training in his closet drawer. He opened the small cloth and placed it on the table. Austin directed the drill to his right hand before gouging the bullet out of his hand.
“ARRGH!”
Austin shouted so loudly, that his screams filled the contents of his room at this moment. The bullet he managed to eject, the droplets of red liquid gushing increasingly profusely in his right hand at this moment.
“Master!” The middle-aged man ran towards Austin. He put the media tool he was carrying on the table.
Quickly, the man covered the wound on Austin's hand with a cotton swab. She wrapped the bandage in Austin's hand afterwards. His face looked worried as he watched Austin just remain silent without a word. The man seemed to be thinking of something.
“I'm sorry, Sir. If only I had come quickly, maybe you did not get shot like this,” said the man full of guilt.
“You don't need to apologize,” replied Austin coldly.
“Master, why don't you fight your enemies again? This is not what Mr. Clark meant. He asks you to be wise in leading your mafia gang. Not asking you to turn into the weak man you are today. Your enemies keep coming. But you keep avoiding. When will you arrive, sir? Until when?”
“Until I manage to find the woman I love,” replied Austin. He looked at the man's face again. “I'll be strong if there's a figure I have to protect. If it were just myself, I would still be like this. The proof until now no one has managed to beat me.”
“Women?” The man scrunched his forehead. He wanted to know what kind of woman Austin meant. If indeed the woman was near Austin, she would struggle to unite them. “What's his name, sir? Does he like you too?”
Austin smiled again. The man leaned against the sofa while imagining Norah's pretty face. “I just met him for the first time."
The man scrunched his forehead. “Women who rode a motorcycle earlier, Mister?”
Austin nodded slowly. “Name Norah. I owe him. I hope he calls me tomorrow. I want to see him again.”
The middle-aged man was silent. He also did not know and did not know the woman referred to by Austin. She didn't see Norah's face because she was in the car. “Today I saw Mr. Austin smile again after a few months of the departure of Mr and Mrs. Let's just hope the woman is a good woman so she can give positive value to Mr. Austin.”
