THE MAFIA!
The Chapter 217

After a statement that changed the relationship status of a pair of young people who were on the beach, now the beach air feels warmer.

No more cold, no more wind that can lift the girl's hair. Because the girl's hair is blocked from the chest of the man's field.

How the air did not turn warm, the burly arms of the young man hugged the girl's slim little body from behind.

Virginia's back and the back of her head were perfectly fixed to the man's wide chest. And find great comfort from inside.

Both are facing the beach that increasingly looks dark. Both of them were the same - closing their eyes deeply. While the heart is increasingly flowering when remembering there is no more doubt in the heart.

It's been revealing what's been buried in the chest for years. It paid off the wait that long.

Now feel each other have, making the two no doubt to just hug, or even give a kiss on the forehead of the girl, and a reply kiss on the cheek of the man.

Then lips?

Uh! maybe it's not time to get there yet. Jio had to declare their relationship in front of Mommy. As the eldest child who loves his mother very much, Jio does not want to break the rules of the Mommy, which strictly prohibits him from playing a girl.

And Jio wouldn't do that. Especially hurting Virginia. Something he really didn't want to do.

"Jio...?" call Virginia clean with eyes that are still closed while leaning on the chest of the man.

"Hm?"

Jio's voice sounded so shady in Virginia's ears that it was so close to Jio's lips. Because Jio was so comfortable leaning his cheek over the head of the girl.

"Never leave me.." - Virginia, but it sounds so serious.

"Never!" answer Jio sure. Although his eyes are still closed enjoy the fragrant golden hair of his former best friend.

"Whatever happens, can you promise not to leave me?" virginia asked for.

"I promise that no matter what happens to you, I will never leave you. Forever!" Jio kept saying promises that he would even make without the girl having to ask for them.

Virginia smiled brightly. But he believes, Jio is not the type of person who easily reneges on his promises.

"You doubt me?" ask Jio whose premonition is quite sensitive to small things about people's judgments on him.

"Not that I doubt you, Jio. but I'm afraid you'll leave me one day." replied Virginia heartily.

"You know my family life isn't far from a war. Almost every problem in the company as well as in Daddy's black world, we are always dealing with firearms." replied Jio tightening his arm that was coiled around the girl's body. His eyes turned to look straight at the open sea.

"When, and wherever we can die if we're not lucky. My world is very close..."

"Don't say that, Jio.." - Virginia didn't want to hear Jio's last words. Also do not want to imagine the hard life in the play of the lover.

Yep! has not the nickname of the friend been changed to the nickname of the lover?

"You must be strong like my Mommy, Nia. Who must be strong to release her husband to war." said Jio.

"For us, fighting as if hanging on a rope on a cliff. If God wills, we will be saved. But if God doesn't want to, then...."

"Stop!!" Virginia turned her body and immediately hugged the body of the fighter. "I just had you. Don't talk that I won't be able to hear if it's all true" Virginia said in Jio's arms.

Jio smiled softly. Two hearts that had been far apart were now so close. Only obstructed cloth attached to each body only. Even the heartbeat of Virginia can be felt by Jio who is very sensitive by any kind of movement.

"Why are you so unsure of our relationship, Nia?" tanya Jio gently rubbed Virginia's hair.

"I've always believed in you, Jio. I was never unsure of you. Even if you leave for seven years, I believe that you will come back to me. And right, isn't it? you must always keep your promises. I'm sure of it." replied Virginia while sipping on the fragrant perfume that Jio was wearing. Very cool to get into the deepest recesses.

"I'll always come back for you, Nia.."

***

If on the beach there is a new couple who are hugging for the first time. Then there is also someone who actually hides behind a tree to avoid the sight of a girl that he dreams to have.

Although the possibility is very small. Because for him, it was possible that a Young Miss liked him who was only a bodyguard.

It was Xiaoli Chen! a handsome, silent bodyguard admires a Young Miss from Italy's richest family.

It would not be wrong if anyone knew, then asked Xiaoli to wake up from her dream. For him, he was sleeping and reluctant to wake up.

Jia leaned her elbows against the guardrail. Then looked up to see the sky after being sure that there was no one behind the tree. The same sky as the sky that bears witness to the love of Jio and Virginia by the beach.

Stars scattered, moonlight even reached the palace region, which made Michael's palace look more majestic in the middle of the dark night and dim light.

The Young Miss glared far away among the studded stars. The little questions that made him smile faintly and drifted away in a long daydream.

' Is Xiaoli also staring at this sky? '

' Hi, Xiaoli? Are you also interested in me, like I am interested in you? '

' How can there be a bodyguard as handsome as you, Xiaoli? '

The question - the question he did not find the answer was finally just to make himself smile thinly. It is true to see, if the Young Miss is daydreaming under the late night sky.

"Who's there!" jia shouted, sharpening his gaze down there. Just where Xiaoli was hiding behind the tree.

Feeling insecure, Jia went inside and immediately picked up a desert eagle firearm quickly. And immediately brought her back to the balcony.

With his distinctive graceful style, Jia barges the firearm right towards the tree he suspects.

"OUT! OR MY BULLETS WILL NEST IN YOUR HEAD!" jia shouted quite loudly.

But just as the scale there is no movement from the tree.

And in that tense moment, the figure that had just possessed Jia's mind, actually came from the opposite direction to the tree that was targeted by Jia's muzzle. And Jia's position was turned back on the man. So he didn't know if anyone was coming.

"What's up, Miss?" xiaoli asked a little loudly, because of Jia's position on the second floor.

Hearing a voice that was completely unfamiliar, Jia was instantly stunned. The weapon that he had shared towards the tree, slowly lowered with in unison by a thumping chest.

Very slowly Jia turned her head towards where the source of the sound came from. Doubtful but wanting, that was how Jia felt at this moment.

The head moved towards the back of his body. Little by little he could see who was standing down there looking at him.

The young man asked what he was doing?

"Xis..Xi..Xiaoli.." Jia stammered the name of the Bodyguard.

The chest that had been pounding due to hearing Xiaoli's voice, was now increasingly beating faster, like a drum that was sounding. The bodyguard's body gesture was indeed very alluring in his eyes.

"Yes, Miss!" replied Xiaoli kindly. "Why is Miss screaming? Can I help you?" ask Xiaoli.

"Oh..." Jia was misbehaved to see the handsome face of Xiaoli down there who was still loyal to her who now looked very clumsy. "I was. I was just. I just saw a shadow there." Jia pointed at the tree he had been to a firearm, clumsily. "But I just kind of saw it wrong." Jia threw a misguided and frail smile.

"Tree then?" Xiaoli pointed at the tree she had just occupied to hide.

"Yes!" jia replied a few times.

Without answering any more, Xiaoli approached the tree Jia was referring to. Yes, of course just to pretend. Having the advantage of being able to move quietly and disappear as fast as lightning, of course he can easily escape when almost caught stealing - steal a glance at the Young Miss.

"There's nothing, Miss." Xiaoli said after examining several trees.

"Damma!" Jia again chuckled embarrassedly and stiffly. "It seems like I did see it wrong, Xiaoli. Sorry to bother you!" said Jia.

"No problem, Miss! it is my duty to serve Miss and the family." Xiaoli said respectfully.

Jia just smiled stiffly, very stiffly. Even so apparently he was unable to look at Xiaoli's pair of eyes that were able to wash away her. He just chuckled while lowering his gaze.

"It's late, Miss. A girl doesn't sleep too late. Young Miss is sleeping!" xiaoli said arriving.

And what Xiaoli said made Jia a little dazed to look at the handsome face of the bodyguard. Jia's originally tense face gradually relaxed.

Is that a concern?

I don't know, obviously the Young Miss was happy to hear that. He was not even able to cover the smile that was accompanied by blushing cheeks.

"You alone?" jia asked courageously to ask.

"I still have to patrol, Miss." Xiaoli replied reasoned. It was no longer his job to patrol the night.

"Oh, alright." Jia replied smiling brightly. "Happy duty... Xiaoli.." said Jia with a tremendous pounding in the chest.

"Thank you, Miss!" replied Xiaoli. "Good night."

Heart beat getting louder gets a good night from someone he wants to dream of tonight.

"Same - same.."

What a loss the Young Miss said to reply Xiaoli's good night.

With a smile that did not diminish, Jia turned her body in shame. As he was about to close the window, he tiptoed to see, is Xiaoli still down there?

The bodyguard is still down there. And when the bodyguard realized that he was peeking, the young man turned to a sweet smile.

' Aa.. I must be a good dream! '

Jia said in her heart. Although he was very embarrassed, because he was caught peeping.

As soon as he was done with the business of closing the window, quickly Jia jumped on his king-size bed. A smile that was just shy - shame is now a big smile that he does not want to end.

He wanted to stay awake, to remember the voice of the bodyguard who asked him to sleep. And the most special thing was, Xiaoli was the first man to say good night as a lullaby in person.

"Good Night, Xiaoli Chen!"

The Young Miss muttered before she finally closed her eyes, and expected a beautiful dream to come to close the colorful day.
