THE MAFIA!
The Chapter 214

On the wide beach, where the waves crashing produce their own shahdu sound, and the atmosphere of the beach is getting prettier by a sprinkling of stars - twinkling in the clear night sky. Where the moon is brightly shining on the Earth on one side of the sky, without being covered by dense clouds at all.

Its beautiful light bounces off the beautiful and handsome face that becomes the only couple to visit the beach.

As the son of the richest man in Rome, the young man can do whatever he wants. Including using money to make the beach crowded visitors, become a private beach until dawn.

A girl was talking about how she had felt for years. But never dare to reveal it to anyone. Especially to the young man who had just grabbed his body from behind.

"Past.... Whenever there's a prom night at school, I always imagine coming with you... Dance with you, only with you, Jio. Like friends who dance with their chosen partner." said Virginia reminiscing twice prom night that she had gone through alone.

Junior High School and Senior High School. The moment of separation where usually diihi by a young couple - mudi. Whether it is as a pair of lovers, scuffles or as the closest friend of the opposite sex. Like two pairs that are currently the same - the same dilemma.

"I always refuse to let anyone invite me to come together" Virginia said in a trembling voice. "I prefer to sit on the bar stool, or the sofa, with those who also come alone. Although not many come alone, at least I have friends."

"But in the air throughout the event, I just imagined being able to go down to the dance floor with you, wearing matching costumes... And move in tandem like any other couple." recalls Virginia with a poignant smile. "I've always said that if we'd been very happy, we'd be able to come to prom night together."

A drop of tears just fell on the cheek of the beautiful girl. The memory turned back, where for seven years he had a lonely day and so - just like that. It feels like you can't have any close friends anymore after Jio's departure.

"I'm sorry, Jio. I can't anymore define who you are for me... Clearly, from the first time we met and became friends, I never again found a friend like you" said young Miss Brown.

"I only feel happy if you are happy. Doesn't have to be the name of a friend." he said softly with closed eyes when calling a name that he did not want at all, while wiping a speck of tears that had fallen on his cheek.

Taking a deep breath, Virginia strengthened her heart to speak again. Something he also wanted to know. Especially if it wasn't about Jio's feelings for her.

"Then what do I mean to you, Jio?" virginia asked back, glancing back, where the young man was still standing by staring at his back with a difficult look. "What do you mean by our closeness?"

Jio, that young man with an IQ of 160 seemed to freeze. Hearing Virginia's answer at once in question makes it like a dead flea. Especially when you hear the name of a friend that was thrown Virginia. He also does not like that name.

But when he remembered that there were tears coming out of a pair of Virginia's plump eyes, Jio could no longer resist what he had wanted to explode in his chest. Something he's been holding for years.

He knows what he feels and what Virginia feels is actually the same. It's just that his tongue is still glistened by the unusual.

Instead of answering, Jio turned his body, turned his back to the beach. Then walk away from Virginia alone by the beach with cold steps sng Young master.

Jio stepped up and continued to step, without looking back. Where Virginia ultimately froze on the beach.

Realizing that Jio had left himself alone, Virginia's cries broke unbearably. It was not the end he wanted.

Just like Jio, he also wants to know what Jio feels like to him. Seven years of waiting, and after meeting again almost every day always together. But why is there no clearer and more tangible relationship between the two.

Only a status of friends that seems unshakable by anything. Realizing that self is not considered important by the young man, Virginia regretted saying everything she wanted to the young man.

Virginia was crying. Dropping all the wounds and disappointment he felt in the form of tears accompanied by a small stuffing that gradually became a harder stuffing.

But the sound of the pill stuffing was swallowed raw - raw by the sound of waves pounding. So he didn't have to worry that Jio could hear it. Because for him, the man did not need to know if he was crying on the silent beach created by Jio.

But this time, the girl really felt like a stupid girl who seemed to have just expressed love to someone. Then it was rejected raw - raw by the young man who was coveted.

Which girl is not ashamed when she feels that? As if there were no other men! I have to declare love first.

But the one that kept him safe from the poor girl. He did not express love at all. The written word of love is just a parable.

He only said if he waited for Jio, with dali could no longer find a friend who was the same as Jio. Which Jio was as sincere to him.

At the time of all the sadness of the young Miss Brown, the beach which was originally only illuminated by some lights in certain parts, suddenly turned bright.

Virginia that still faces the beach is made to frown. Surprised by the light. Whereas previously the beach was only dominated by the holy light from the sky. But now....

"Why is it so bright?" his murmur looked at the waves that were now clearly visible, and formed the ends of his fingers.

Slowly, Virginia turned to the left. The beach is the same. Everything became bright. Much different than before.

He immediately wiped away the tears that flooded his cheeks. Issues that originally felt poly, gradually reduced and even disappeared.

Virginia immediately looked back, and was wide-eyed by the young Miss Brown. Even the mouth that was originally tightly shut was now gaping in disbelief.

How not, light bulbs of the same color form a short symbol which means very clear.

But who prepared all that?

A pair of eyes immediately searched for the target. One - one that can do all is Jio, as a beach tenant. But where is the young man?

Until all the lights turn on beautifully, Jio has not been seen appearing.

A pair of wet eyes, continuously circulating his gaze towards the surroundings. Tracing every inch of the park. But the handsome young man was not yet seen.

From the position he now stood, Virginia did not see a single person. It was as if he was the only one there. And no other creature was with him.

"Jio?" call Virginia down, hoping that her beloved friend will soon appear, from any side. Most importantly, the man had to show up. Before he was scared because of the incredible desolation.

And the silent atmosphere instantly changed, when suddenly the sound of the roar of one's breath was heard from behind him. Even his gust got to the top of his head very warmly

Soon Virginia looked back with a busty chest - deflated. The face also looked very tense when he saw a pair of eyeballs staring at him wistfully.

"Jio!" squealed Virginia with an irregular breath.

Jio's handsome face looked so coldly frozen. What happened to the young man?

It would have been impossible if it wasn't Jio who prepared those lights. But why is Jio like a statue of a human who can breathe.

And the question he was most curious about was, since when was Jio behind him?

***

Return to the atmosphere at Xavier Palace that night left the crown prince to keep a promise to a girl.

Jia was lying on her bed. A mask he got from inside the invitation box was now in his left hand. He swiveled over his face that was facing the sky - the sky of the room.

He had never attended a party before. He was confused as to what to dress. While dori is accustomed to casual baku that is comfortable for fighting and college only.

Never once did a beautiful dress in the style of a young man stick to his tough body.

"What should I wear to the party?" confused muttering.

"Did I leave it to Mommy?" mumbling again. "Toh, Mommy's a lot more feminine than me!" he continued to raise both eyebrows.

"They have no other idea but to ask Mommy for help!"
