Chapter 53 - The two shadows in the garden (2/2)

” 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 .
