Chapter 84: Go to the Saigon River
“Already, how about you?“ Ryzel's eyes scanned Linh's figure once more.
As he stared at Linh's body, Linh's mannerisms were instantly different, he put on a calm and gentle figure.
With blushing cheeks, Linh said, “I'm also ready.“
“Umm, what do you think of my appearance now?“ Linh looked at Ryzel with a curious face. His cheeks still show red, look more cute.
Upon seeing Linh's figure, Ryzel looked back at Linh's eyes and she replied honestly, “Beautiful and cute.“
“Really?“ Linh's eyes widened and faintly emitted a radiance.
“Yes, you stay cute and short,” Ryzel said easily.
“What?!“
Linh's face instantly changed, he looked angry and looked at Ryzel's face with a sharp and angry look. A murderous aura shot out from his body.
Seeing this small and beautiful woman rising in blood with a face filled with red, Ryzel was not afraid at all. Inside his eyes, Linh was similar to a child who went berserk from not being bought ice cream. Not creepy, more likely to be funny and adorable.
Ryzel turned around and began to lock the room door. “It's just that you showed that face, you're not at all scary.“
“Ih!“
Hearing Ryzel's words, Linh became even more annoyed and irritated. His two clenched hands vented his frustration.
When annoyed, Linh's eyes unintentionally focused on Ryzel's waist, then he stuck out his hand intending to pinch the man in front of him.
As soon as Linh's hand was about to touch Ryzel's black shirt, a hand held Linh's hand as fast as lightning.
Linh was surprised by this move. He raised his gaze upwards, and saw that the hand that stopped his hand was Ryzel's. This man stopped his actions without looking back.
A smile appeared on Ryzel's face, and she said in a deep voice, “You want to pinch me? Unfortunately it can't.“
Releasing Linh's hand, Ryzel turned her body 180 degrees and faced the surprised Linh.
His body bowed and looked at Linh with playful eyes. “Do not expect you can pinch my body if you are still short and flat-chested.“
Linh's pupils trembled at Ryzel's words, staring at Ryzel's pair of eyes with stunned expressions.
A few seconds later, Linh's stunned eyes changed, tears appeared and welled up in his eyes.
Ryzel's playful and mocking face instantly changed.
“No-no, I'm just kidding, don't listen to what I said.“ Ryzel crouched down and tried to calm Linh who was already eager to scream and cry.
Unfortunately, Linh did not listen to Ryzel's words. More tears and almost dripped out of her eyelids. His lips were already curling and his nose was faintly reddened.
Ryzel did not know how, he had tried to pull out a sentence to thwart Linh's attempt to cry, but it was useless.
His words earlier had really gone overboard, he was indeed wrong for having spoken like that to Linh.
Seeing Linh who was already at the point of wanting to cry out loudly, Ryzel inevitably had to act in order to restrain Linh from crying.
Just as Linh's little mouth opened, Ryzel's two hands hugged Linh's petite body with a warm feeling. Ryzel's right hand stroked Linh's small back and tried to calm Linh's wounded mood from it.
Sensing her body being hugged by Ryzel, Linh's bead enlarged, she now couldn't believe that Ryzel was holding her just like that.
Unknowingly, his intention to cry became void. His shock overcame his intentions.
Afterwards, Linh heard Ryzel say a sentence to him right in his right ear. The magnetic and comfortable sound made Linh focus his ears.
“Sorry, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I've gone overboard. Sorry ...“
Ryzel's voice was so deep, like one who was deeply sorry and he was confessing to the wrongdoing he had done.
Linh is reluctant to forgive at first, but upon hearing Ryzel's words, he feels that Ryzel did not intend to say that.
With a good mood, Linh nodded and returned Ryzel's embrace. “Yes, I forgive you now. However, if in the future you still say the same sentence. I really don't want to forgive him anymore.“
“Good, I understand. Thank you for forgiving me.“
Ryzel was relieved after an apology from her was received by Linh.
“Same-sama, Ryzel.“ Linh stroked Ryzel's wide back gently. “I also want to apologize to you, Ryzel. I've pinched you, I know it's a rude act. I'm sorry for the bad behavior I've done to you.“
His heart felt guilty for his presumptuous actions and hurt Ryzel at that time, which was pinching Ryzel on the plane. According to him, it was an inappropriate act directed at others..
“I already forgave him while on the plane,” Ryzel replied and nodded. His hand was still rubbing Linh's small back.
However, Ryzel did not know that this hand had let go of something.
“Thank you, Ryzel. “ Linh exhales deeply. He is also forgiven by Ryzel for his actions. “Ryzel, I—”
“Linh, are you carrying a balloon on your body?“ Ryzel accidentally cuts Linh's speech. He felt something stuck in his chest. It felt like there was a round and soft object like a balloon filled with balloons between their two bodies.
The bodies of the two of them can not be too close because of the object, there is a block.
Upon hearing Ryzel's words, Linh's countenance changed, then he let go of Ryzel's embrace and looked towards her chest.
Clearly emblazoned 2 white balls arising from inside her casual black dress.
Besides Linh, Ryzel also saw this big ball, even she could clearly see the hemispheres of those 2 balls which were like rebelling wanting to get out of the dress.
Seeing this, Ryzel instantly threw her face the other way. Preventing his sister from waking up from her sleep.
Deftly, Linh covered his ball with a beach hat, not wanting Ryzel to see anything that should not be seen from his body.
The red and hot hue had already dominated Linh's entire face. Now, he was so embarrassed, to the point of not knowing what to do.
“Anu, Linh. It's good if you go into the room and change clothes. That, too inappropriate if we want to go out and go for a walk,” Ryzel said still throwing her face away and looking at the end of the hallway. He tried not to look at Linh's figure.
Ryzel's suggestion made Linh wake up, and he quickly ran into the room. “Good, you wait for me. I changed clothes first.“
Linh's voice sounded away from Ryzel, then the sound of the door being opened and closed rang.
Knowing Linh was following his advice, Ryzel turned towards Linh's room door and thought of something.
“Is that a real ball? Or just a balloon? Can such a small woman afford to have such a big ball? Where does it come from?“
Lots of thoughts and questions swirling in his head.
As soon as he thought about it, Ryzel stood up and went back into the room. Women will definitely take a long time to remake their makeup and preparations.
Sure enough by her guessing, Linh knocked on her door after 20 minutes had passed after Linh had entered the room.
As Ryzel opened the door, she saw the same figure of Linh. His chest was back flat and he changed his clothes in an oversized white casual dress. No longer wearing a beach hat, now he wears a regular black hat. The pants are still safe, the length is right on the knee.
He had a small bag on his shoulder. Overall the appearance is simple and relaxed, impressed cheerful.
“Umm ... let's go!“ take Linh while staring at Ryzel in front of him. His face was still timid, he was still reminded of that shameful thing.
“Oke.“ Without much thought, Ryzel walked out of the room and left with Linh.
Ryzel wanted to discuss about the events that had happened just now, but it was rather sensitive for Linh.
So, it was better for him to shut up and wait for Linh to open the conversation.
However, after arriving outside the hotel, Linh never spoke and still kept his mouth shut.
Apparently, Ryzel had to be the one to open the conversation.
“Anu, Linh.“
“That, Ryzel.“
Suddenly, the two were indeed each other at the same time. The two of them looked at each other and saw their faces.
After saying that, the two of them did not speak and lowered their heads. Both are silent.
Ryzel scratched his head looking awkward, occasionally stealing glances at Linh's figure.
Thinking Linh wasn't talking, Ryzel tried to open the conversation.
“Linh, where should we go?“ Ryzel asked about the direction they were going. Now he's just standing on the sidewalk in front of the hotel.
Hearing Ryzel's question, Linh ventured to answer, “We have to go there. I recommend walking only because the scenery on the way to the river is very good.“
Linh's hand pointed in a direction. Although he dared to answer, but he still did not believe himself staring blatantly at Ryzel face.
“Alright, I don't matter. Let's start our journey to the river!“ Ryzel nodded and stepped up to begin his journey to the Saigon River.
Seeing Ryzel move first, Linh follows Ryzel and walks behind her.
They went to the river with their atmosphere of friendship so awkward.
Along the way, the two of them saw a building standing next to the sidewalk of the highway. This view is so peaceful and soothing. In the morning the weather is still very cold.
During this trip, their friendship both returned to normal. Linh becomes active despite being inactive like before, Ryzel is not stiff and feels relaxed.
In fact, Ryzel had already relaxed when they started the journey to the river.
“I was a kid once to the Saigon River. It was so big that I cried. It's funny to remember. Most little children would be amazed to see this great river, but I'm the opposite. Now that I'm big, I'm not afraid anymore,” said Linh who was telling me a little about his childhood.
Ryzel smiled at Linh's story as a child. This woman was unique, even when she was a child.
“Maybe you are afraid that something has emerged from that great river. Usually, young children are afraid of monsters,” Ryzel said after a brief thought.
Subduing his head for a moment, Linh nodded a few times. “Maybe. When I was a child I was afraid of snakes, until now, anyway.“
“You can, as a child you are afraid of the big snake that emerged from the river. Isn't it when we're little our imagination is very high?“
“True too. Chances are like that.“ On second thought, Ryzel's analysis and conjecture could be put to use.
Linh becomes curious about Ryzel's childhood and she asks while staring at Ryzel's face, “Are you a little time scared of something?“
“I?“ Ryzel turned to Linh, and Linh responded with a nod. “I as a child had a fear with one of the animals, I think it was very unique. You want to know what animal I'm afraid of?“
“What is it?“ Linh glanced at Ryzel with curious eyes.
“Banteng, I am very afraid of the red bull.“
“Banteng is red?“ Linh's expression turned strange and he thought about the beast.
Ryzel was holding back laughter at this moment, as this joke was only understood by certain people.
With a puzzled face, Linh looked at Ryzel and asked again, “There is indeed a red bull?“
“There. Only in Indonesia.“ Ryzel nodded with a reassuring face.
“Really?“ Linh looked at Ryzel with incredulous eyes.
“Iya, in Indonesia.“
“Hmm ...“
This statement is hard to believe. Linh had no idea that there was a red bull in the world.
“Already, don't think. Better to focus on the road. So where do we turn?“
Looking at Linh who lowered his head and pondered, Ryzel thought of ending this discussion and changing the topic.
“We go straight, follow the path, and the river will be visible,” Linh told Ryzel. His mind was still stuck in the discussion of the red bull.
“OK!“ Ryzel nodded showing herself understanding.
The two continued walking towards where the Saigon River was located.
However, before the river, Ryzel and Linh stopped by a cafe first. Linh had already complained of wanting to drink, there happened to be a cafe on the way and they turned his direction into the cafe.
They both ordered drinks and some snacks.
“The longer the sun is felt. It's ten o'clock now.“ Linh saw his Oddo-branded phone in 2020, including the old phone.
Ryzel also took a look at his phone and glanced at the clock, it turns out it was right at 10 am past a few minutes.
As soon as he saw Linh's phone, Ryzel only realized that Linh's phone was not branded iPon. The phone that Linh held branded the type is cheap, the price is 3 million rupiah and it was output a few years ago.
All the women Ryzel met - Maly, Haimi, Rina, and others - were wearing prestigious phones.
Supposedly, Linh could buy an expensive phone, because he had gone abroad several times.
Curious and insecure curiosity, Ryzel asked, “Linh, is that your phone?“
“Yes, what is it?“ Linh looked at Ryzel in confusion.
“Why use that phone? You didn't upgrade your phone?“
“For what? It's still good and works well.“
“Isn't the phone important for your work? Communicating via mobile phone, it should have improved the phone,” Ryzel said with his opinion.
Hearing this, Linh became embarrassed and he replied, “I also want to buy a new phone, but there are many other interests, such as giving money to parents, paying for school sister, paying for school sister, buy new clothes for cosplay and more. However, now I am raising money to buy ipon.“
“Oh, I understand.“
Ryzel nodded his salute and respect with this little lady, she worked not because of herself, but also because of family. Ryzel could not guess how the Linh family was doing. In essence, Ryzel salutes this woman.
A feeling of compassion came from inside Ryzel's heart. Suddenly he had good intentions.
“You know where the shopping mall place is in this city? If you know, you take me there, there's something I want to buy,” asked Ryzel to Linh while stirring up a new coming drink.
“I know the place,” replied Linh. “What do you want to buy?“
“Something, you don't need to know.“
