Chapter 49 - Mana's Awake
'' Hurry up ! '' said Helios with a pressuring aura when watching the both of them .
'' Who's staying with Mana since you're here ! '' said Bekora .
'' The maid that came in before is now taking care of Mana . Since you were taking a while I thought that maybe something happened to you but looks like I was mistaken . '' said Helios with fierce eyes .
'' I will go there now . Aria..... '' said Bekora then turned towards Aria .
'' I will make sure they arrive here within three days , stay at ease ! '' said Bekora .
'' Thank you Bekora ! '' said Aria .
Bekora felt a chill behind his back by Helios's continuous fierce glares at him . On the other hand, Aria was slightly happier when hearing Bekora's words . She looked at the sunset then tried to convince herself that everything would be fine . Helios was standing near the stairs , waiting for them so that they could go to Mana's room . Bekora went ahead and Aria followed him but with slower steps . When Aria was passing near Helios , he caught a glimpse of Aria's reddish eyes .
'' Have you cried ? '' asked Helios .
'' None of your business ! '' said Aria without looking at him .
" I'm not interested in the reason , I was just wondering if you would ask a kiss or hug of comfort from me little tigress . I can take it into consideration if you ask me in a cute manner . " said Helios with a smirk and looking at Aria .
" Who needs your comfort ! You better not bother me you blonde donkey ! " said Aria angrily , walking ahead and trying to avoid having more conversation with Helios .
' Who does he think he is ?! He is so annoying ! ' thought Aria .
" Oh you will so regret calling me donkey when you know my identity ! I will wait till that moment arrives and slowly torture you little tigress . I am sure that I will enjoy it to the fullest ." said Helios with a devilish grin .
' Since she reacted like that then it means she's fine . ' thought Helios when remembering her reddish eyes and then went to Mana's room , following Aria from behind .
While Aria and Helios were heading towards Mana's room , Bekora had already arrived there . He saw that the maid had prepared a plate with mineral water and a soft towel to wash Mana's face . The maid greeted Bekora when she saw him .
'' Sir Bekora ! The driver came here a while ago and left this phone here . He said that miss Aria had dropped it . '' said the maid and handed over the phone to Bekora who put it on the table .
'' Thanks for the care ! You can leave now , I will look after her . '' said Bekora in a polite manner and the maid bowed then left .
Bekora took the towel that the maid had placed at the table then put it in the mineral water . After wetting the towel he took a seat near Mana's bed . With the wet towel, he started to softly clean the face of the sleeping beauty .
'' I swear that I won't let them off without torturing them Mana . I will make them serve as an example for the others . '' said Bekora while cleaning her forehead .
Mana's eye slowly opened her eyes and saw Bekora .
'' I would prefer if you didn't cause trouble and do it quietly ! '' said Mana in a quiet tone .
'' Mana ! '' said Bekora and hugged her .
From his shoulders that started trembling , Mana understood that he was very worried about her . She hugged him back and then patted his shoulders . The two of them knew each other from a young age and were very close even though they weren't blood related .
'' No need to worry I'm alright , I'm alright .....thanks to that girl . I am deeply grateful to her . '' said Mana with a warm and sweet smile . Bekora also smiled when seeing Mana like that .
'' By the way ...'' Bekora was about to tell Mana not to reveal her identity to Aria since Helios and the queen decided to play a little game but was interrupted by the noise of the door opening .
At that moment Aria entered the room first then followed by Helios . When seeing Mana that was awake she was surprised and happy . Aria went near her on the left side of the bed since the right side was occupied by Bekora . Mana was happy to see Aria cause she wanted to personally thank her . She saw that behind Aria was Helios who winked at her with a smile while holding his index finger in front of his mouth . Just that action made Mana understand that she shouldn't reveal him.
' Well , well , this is interesting ! What are you up to this time Helios ?! ' thought Mana with a smirk and decided to play along with them .
'' Mana , are you alright ? '' asked Aria .
When seeing Aria's sincerely worried expression she did feel a bit bad about lying to her .
'' I'm fine now, only thanks to you . Really ! Thank you so much for saving me Aria ! '' said Mana with a big smile .
'' You're welcome ! It was a nice experience although it was a bit scary . '' said Aria and all of them laughed a little .
'' Since it was nice , how about experiencing it again ? '' asked Helios .
'' Nah ! I will pass . I have to take care of some things first , before putting my neck at risk again . '' said Aria when looking at him . Even if she was angry at him she couldn't help but laugh just like the others did too .
Helios's phone rang and he saw that it was Juli .
' I totally forgot about her ! I will deal with it later . ' thought Helios and put the phone on the table cause its continuous vibration started to annoy him .
Looking at all of them a sudden thought came into Aria's head .
'' I understand that Bekora and Mana are friends but ....what relationship do you have with her ? '' said Aria looking straight at Helios when she noticed that Mana wasn't surprised seeing him here . She remembered that Mana was a famous individual and it was normal that she and Bekora were friends but with Helios who was just a mere manager at the company , it was doubtful . The three of them were caught off guard and didn't know what to say till Bekora intervened .
'' Aria , I forgot to tell you that a message just came telling me that the program is being hacked again . Please talk with Aden and tell him to stop it . '' said Bekora .
'' Again ?! '' said Aria with an annoyed expression and Bekora nodded in a helpless way .
'' I am really sorry for his childish behavior . I will make sure that it never happens again . '' said Aria and was about to go out but suddenly realized that she didn't have her phone with her .
'' I dropped my phone when I was at the hotel ! '' said Aria with a sad expression . She had just bought that expensive phone and in less than two months she already lost it .
'' Don't worry ! The driver that accompanied you picked it up . I left it there on the table . '' said Bekora .
'' Thank god , I thought I lost it ! I must thank that driver later . I just bought it ! '' said Aria and then went towards the table to get her phone .
'' I will come back after I make a call . '' said Aria to Mana .
'' Sure ! '' said Mana with a warm smile . Aria while talking with Mana didn't pay much attention to the table and grabbed the phone without even looking at it .
When Aria went outside to go and talk with her brother Helios rushed to Mana's bed and touched her forehead to see if she had any fever .
'' Helios , I am fine ! '' said Mana with a warm smile .
After making sure she was fine Helios started to pull her cheeks with a serious look .
'' Blo...it....hults....( bro it hurts ) !! '' said Mana who could hardly speak with her cheeks being pulled with force like that .
'' It better hurt , you stupid girl ! " said Helios angrily .
