Runaway Alpha

Chapter 18



“What the? Why did you do that Mira? You are the one that tell me to said it to them that way”

Mira annoyingly scold Aillard who doesn’t seem to believe in her words.

“What are you talking about? Why would I tell you to do that mean thing? Maybe that was also part of your hallucination you dumb-ass”

Aillard was shocked. You can read it on his face. He totally believe in that fragment of memories he had.

“What’s? So that’s not also a reality but part of that hallucination thing? haha this is driving me crazy”

Aillard slightly rumble his hair as he frowned while looking at the ground. That sure is not acceptable since it is so uncertain to know and differentiate the reality and hallucination.

I just look at the two who are quarelling but then they looked so close to the fact that one would surely know that they are a childhood sweet heart

I know that they have known each other for a long while and that Mira have been taking a liking on him for avery long time but then I’m not sure whether they would be a good couple. They always fight. Who knows if as soon as they get married they would kill each other. Even so, it’s not that I have the say about it. But yes, I learned that Aillard is a good guy and Mira on the other hand is a very nice person. She often helped my mother and is always playing with my siblings. She met my mother when she played with my younger sister once and then…

I now agreed that maybe their relationship would work out. Mira is good at handling people with a little attitude.

Yes, it looks like they are the people who would make a good couple

That thoughts was disturbed by Lhana asking her brother a question.

“Brother is someone really dying? Are you sure about that? Death… Dying… that is a heavy sentence to say”

“No no no let’s replace it- what it mean is someone is needing your help that’s why we came here to find you and ask for your cooperation”

“Someone needs my help?”

“Yes”

“Who”

***

“Thank you miss Lhana, many many thanks about what you did. I will surely pay you as much as I can earn just to give back this credit you have given to me”

The boy bow his head

“You are my brother’s friend, right? So there is nothing much to worry and then it’s just a simple thing”

“What do you mean simple thing? you save the life of my grandmother. I owe you so much that I can offer you my life to you”

“No no no life is a very heavy thing oh my gosh you do have the same thinking as him… that’s why you … maybe that’s why to get along with my brother too well”

She seems troubled about not accepting his gratitude. Mira slightly laugh about what Lhana said. That they two have the same perspectives. Still that is true, because it’s a while ago… Aillard stated something that is pretty similar about that and then his best friend, Warner, if I recall his name correctly, said something about him giving his life to Lhana. This two really think of life as something they can easily theow which doesn’t even make any sense

“Then what can I do to repay this big gratitude you’re given to me?”

“You can just stay being nice and kind… and take a care of your grandmother like you always do. That would be enough”

“Is that really alright or you need any other help about anything? I am very useful if I may say”

It seems like the guy is not understanding what Lhana is telling him that’s why I spoke up and said to him

“No need to worry about that. Lhana is that kind of person who will not use others for her own good. You just have to live happily and I know she will be more than happy for that”

I was so shocked about what I did. I am not someone who who say this kind of words for other which caught me of guard. Did I just tell him what I think Lhana is thinking. I look and her. Did I offend her?

“I dont know what tk say but thank you very much Ms. Lhana”

“You already said too many thank you’s already, only one is enough”

“Yes”

He bowed his head and returned back to the room of his grandmother as he tap the shoulder of his best friend who became a great help to him.

“Warner we should go. Take a care of your grandmother and we wish her a good health and long life”

Warner nodded his head and so the four of us leave the house of the person they called Warner.

“You know what? You truly understand Lhana. I’m so jealous about that”

“What do you mean jealous?”

Mira wave her hands

I noticed it but I just didn’t bother thinking abput what she’s talking about since I’m busy thinking about what’s happened in the forest a while ago. The thing about the reason why Lhana’s brother suddenly have a delusion and acted so strange before falling on the ground.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“I mean your brother is too dumb he can’t get that I like him”

” But I know that he already knew that fact sister mira”

“Well maybe it’s just a negative for he is not acting the way I wanted. Maybe I’m just too selfish thinking that things would go and the way I wanted it to be but yeah that’s just a… never mind. I’m just getting used to it by now”

“But brother is a kind person, you shouldn’t give up. He may be a little dumb and annoying sometimes but he is a very outstanding person”

I am somehow feeling guilty about what they are talking about since it seems to be a girl’s talk so that’s why I didn’t bother listening in their conversation anymore and just walk to the direction where a bench was placed.

Now that I think of it I haven’t had taste any of the food that Lhana prepared. I thought that we’re going to eat after we find out that place but then things happen… and now we are back in this village

I somehow feel a little bothered about the fact that Lhana’s brother saw the two of us in that forbidden place and chase us just to brung us back in this village. Now that I finally think about it… they know that we went in the ground that is forbidden for us.

I look at Aillard who seems to be thinking something deep

We are not that close that’s why I’m not going to ask him if he should tell the elders about what they saw. It is up to him to say those words and surely with some evidence he can let them believe that he is saying things that are fact. They will surely believe him especially my father since he is not some simple guy. In their eyes, Aillard is someone who can’t lie to them because he is that good.

But then if you think about it, surely he would doubt doing it since it includes Lhana and he doesn’t want Lhana’s reputation to be tarnished

Would he tell it or not? I do wonder

“What are you thinking about?”

I heard him ask me as he sat in the bench beside me

“Nothing”

I replied shortly not wanting to give him an idea but but I am thinking

“Don’t you ever make my sister bad”
