Chapter 53 - The Two Shadows In The Garden
Helios noticed that she was looking at him for a while now .
" Are you mesmerized by my beauty ? " said Helios with a smirk which made Aria blush a little .
" What....I wasn't.....why would I....No ! " said Aria nervously and Helios laughed at her slightly blushed face .
" Sure , you can continue to deny it if you want ! " said Helios calmly and pointed towards his hair .
' The only good thing about this blonde donkey is his appearance ! ' thought Aria a bit annoyed while cleaning the leaves from Helios's hair with force .
" Slowly , you're hurting me ! " said Helios .
" If you don't like it then take them off yourself . " said Aria .
" Geez , you're not cute at all shorty ! " whispered Helios .
While those two were in the garden , Bekora and Mana were waiting for them to return . Mana started to laugh when Bekora told her about what had happened until now between them .
" Bekora it is indeed difficult to believe what you have said ! " said Mana while laughing .
" Yeah ! She called him blonde donkey more than once ! I can't stop laughing when recalling that day . " said Bekora and kept laughing with Mana .
" You know Mana , Ramolo even prepared a video when he was attending the law seance with me . He made a video of how Aria solved the case , I suggest you watch it especially the face mr Ben and madam Karen made , full of anger and jealousy . It was the peek of that day's happiness . " said Bekora .
" Really ?! I am definitely gonna watch it ! " said Mana with excitement when she heard that madam Karen was like that .
" By the way, it has been a while , they should have come back by now ! " said Bekora while looking at the door .
" Maybe they are playing somewhere ! Why not go and look for them ? " said Mana with a naughty smile .
" Yeah ! But...are you sure you're alright ?! " said Bekora a bit worried about her .
" If I can catch a glimpse of that guy being hated by a girl , it would be the perfect medicine for me since I love gossips . " said Mana with excitment .
" I know ! Let's go and find them . " said Bekora and helped Mana get out of the bed .
Before going out of the room Bekora took a warm jacket from Mana's closet and made her wear it . He told her that nights had started to be colder and she had to wear warmer clothes . Mana looked at him with a lovely smile which made Bekora's heart skip a beat .
When they were walking in the corridor , Mana looked outside the window . The night had already come and the temperature had dropped a little . It was dark inside in the garden but thanks to the lights that lighted the palace and pathways outside the castle Mana was able to notice something in the middle of the oak trees .
" Bekora ! Look ! " said Mana and pointed out in the garden .
" What is it Mana ? " said Bekora and went near Mana . When Mana pointed at two shadows , Bekora noticed them too .
" Are they thieves ? " asked Mana .
" What are you talking about ?! The castle's main building is heavily guarded by a lot of bodyguards and guards .
" Do our guards normally sit on the grass during their duty ?! " said Mana doubtfully .
" No , they are always vigilant . Now that you mention it , it's indeed suspicious . " said Bekora and tried to push his body a little more forward to get a better vision .
" Don't lean too much forward or your fall ! " said Mana to Bekora .
" I am fine don't worry ! If I could just lean a bit more forward ... " said Bekora while moving his body a bit more forward .
At that moment his foot slipped and Bekora was about to fall out of the window .
" Bekora ! " said Mana in a loud voice and grabbed him from his shirt , pulling him inside .
Mana kept pulling him even more and the Bekora lost balance . Mana fell on the ground and Bekora
fell upon her .
" Ouch...my back ! " said Mana with her eyes closed .
When she opened them saw that the heavy thing she felt upon her was Bekora . He raised his head and looked at Mana in the eyes with his heart skipping a beat again . Her clear eyes had a nice shine within them that was drawing him subconsciously . Mana also looked at his eyes and found the way he was gazing at her wasn't the one she knew . This time it was different . For a minute Mana's heart also skipped a beat .
" Get.....get up , you're heavy ! " said Mana a bit flushed .
Bekora came to his senses after hearing Mana and got up then he also helped Mana to get up .
' Luckily I got up before...Damn , we haven't seen each other for three years and she has become even prettier ! ' thought Bekora turning his back at Mana . He didn't want her to see him like that and neither did Mana want him to see her flushed .
" Let's go notify a guard to go see what is going on there . It's too far for us to see from here . " said Bekora who hurried to break that weird atmosphere created by that fall .
Bekora was about to go and Mana decided to follow him . Mana's hands were a little cold and she put them inside the jacket's pocket . She felt that there was something inside the them . When she took it out she saw that it was a hand binocular that was given as a gift to her by her assistant who had gone on a trip to Australia with her husband .
" Look ! " said Mana and showed the hand binocular to Bekora .
" Perfect , now we can see them from up here ! " said Bekora taking the hand binocular from Mana's hands and hurried to the window .
Mana felt a little dumbfounded when she saw he took the binocular from her hand and immediately started to watch .
" Hey ! That's not fair ! Those are my hand binoculars , why are you watching first ?! " said Mana annoyed .
" To make sure that the scene is appropriate for you to see ! " said Bekora and looked at Mana with a naughty smirk .
" Get lost ! " said Mana angrily .
" By the way these are awesome ! Where did you get these ? " asked Bekora .
" My assistant gave them to me as a souvenir from Australia . " said Mana .
" We just need to adjust it a little...." said Bekora and adjusted the binocular's magnification lens to see them more clearly .
When the image was adjusted Bekora remained shocked by what he saw . Mana continued talking and only noticed Bekora's expression a bit later . She called him out but he just said that she better look at it for herself . Mana took the binocular and started to look towards the shadows . To her surprise, it was Helios and Aria . Aria had raised her arms around Helios's hair while he sat on the ground . He raised his hands and grabbed Aria from her wrist then pulled her towards him . From Mana and Bekora's view, they looked like they were kissing in a passionate way .
" Unbelievable ! " said Mana with a shocked face .
" Yeah ! I thought Aria was different but in the end , she too was captured by him . I really hoped to hear her calling him blonde donkey some more times since it's an only lifetime possibility . " said Bekora while leaning at the wall near the window .
" Is that guy so hungry that he can't even wait till he gets inside and do it in the garden ?! Is the castle in short of rooms ?! Unbelievable ! " said Mana with a disgusted face towards Bekora .
" Well , what can you do , it's Helios we're talking about ! " said Bekora with a smirk .
