CHAPTER 3 IN ONE ROOF
“You’re not allowed, our members must have the capability to handle a gun. And she/he will undergo thorough training.” Leonardo contrary.
What if she doesn’t know how to hold a weapon or a gun? It will learn. She prefer herself to keep quiet so they wouldn’t end up arguing when she insisted on what she wanted.
The silence inside the car predominates. She decided to stick her eyes out of the window. The surroundings were still dark, she could hear the wind blowing in the trees. She can’t even remember where he found her earlier. She decided to close her eyes to sleep.
A shake of her shoulder woke her up. She opened her eyes. Rhianna saw Leonardo who was responsible for waking her up.
“We are here, at my house.” he said and averted his face away from her.
He got out of the car and walked to the house. Rhianna decided to get out of the car and followed him to his house. When she got closer to him, he put the key in the doorknob and opened it. He went inside and she followed him.
The house is beautiful. It’s clean, bungalow style. There is a living room, two bedrooms on the side, a door across which is probably CR, and at the end is the kitchen. Simply, you won’t think that law enforcement was living here. He went to a door and opened it.
“You will sleep here for the next few days and now if you have any plans to sleep.” he said then lit the room and went to the kitchen.
She went inside the room. And I roamed her eyes at the lump of it. There is a bed in the middle whose bed cover is black. To her left is a cabinet. In one corner was a door that was probably a bathroom. She opened the cabinet and exposed to her sight the men’s garments. It means He will let her use his room.
“The food is ready, let’s eat first before we go to sleep.”
She turned to the nascency of the voice and saw Leonardo outside the room looking at her.
“Isn’t this your room? Why would you let me use it? I will use the other room. It’s okay even if I don’t have a bed, even if it’s just a mat. The important thing is that I have something to sleep on.” She told him.
“You’re sleeping here and I will sleep in the other room. There’s a double-deck there so don’t worry. Come on, let’s eat.” he said and turned his back on her.
She could do nothing but follow him. Who is she to oppose him to what he wants? He owns the house, so he has the right to decide anything.
She reached the kitchen and saw him busy putting the plate on the table. She went there and helped him. He looked at her when their eyes met, and Rhianna smiled at him.
“Thank you.” she said, that was the only word that came out of her mouth and nothing else.
They finished eating and Rhianna offered to wash the dishes. Leonardo bid goodbye to rest. She move fast to finish what she was doing so that she could rest as well. After Rhianna finish washing the plates, she stacked them in the container.
She immediately went to her room. When she was near her room, she couldn’t help to glance at the door next to her room that would be Leonardo’s room for the upcoming days. She wanted to knock on the door and ask him if he was okay in his room now.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Rhianna decided not to pursue what she was planning and she entered her room. She closed the door when she entered. She immediately lay down on the soft bed. When her back feel the soft mattress, she felt tired of everything that had happened today. She closed her eyes and in a few minutes, she was completely asleep.
Rhianna woke up because of the sunlight hitting her face. She opened her eyes and looked out the window where the sunlight was coming from. The window was open, she couldn’t close it last night because he was so tired. Rhianna stood up and went to the window to close it.
The sunshine is high. She noticed the wall clock on the side of the window. It’s almost ten in the morning. She immediately left his room and went to the opposite room. She turned the doorknob and ventured to open it. She opened the door and she pushed it inside. No one is in the room. Where is Leonardo?
“Do you need anything?” a baritone voice says behind her. Rhianna turned around and as she turned around, her face hit Leonardo’s wide and hard chest.
“Ouch!” Rhianna moaned while holding her forehead which was hurting from the collision. Leonardo passed Rhianna and entered the room.
“We’ll buy you clothes. There’s food in the kitchen, eat first.” he said and closed the door.
She immediately went to the kitchen and saw something covered. She opened it. She saw an omelet. She sat down in the chair and started eating. The omelet is delicious, he is not only an Agent, but he is also a Chef.
Rhianna smiled at the thought. Her weakness is the man who is good at cooking. She finished what she was eating right away. When she finished that, she immediately went to the living room to wait for him. She saw him approaching where she was and carrying a dress.
“Wear that, it looks like you’re the same body size.” he said and handed her the dress.
The dress is a bit short but the sleeves are long. That’s good because it will cover her wounds. Why does he have such women’s clothes here in his house? Couldn’t his girlfriend own this dress?
“That dress belongs to my sister. She visited here last month. She left it here.” Leonardo said when he noticed that Rhianna was staring at the dress he gave to her.
“All right, I’ll just take a shower and get dressed.”
Rhianna went to the bedroom and entered the CR to take a bath. She felt the water coming out of the shower. The water flowing through his body was good. After taking a bath, she put on the dress given by Leonardo. The dress was just right for her.
She looked at her reflection in the mirror. Rhianna immediately combed her hair. When she was satisfied with her appearance, she left the room and went to the living room. Leonardo waited patiently in the living room. When he saw Rhianna, he immediately stood up.
“Let’s go.” he said sparingly and walked out of the house as she followed him.
When they got to his car, she immediately got in the passenger’s seat and Leonardo was in the driver’s seat. They had already crossed the road to town, the opposite of what they had passed last night.
“Leonardo, are you alone in your house?” Rhianna asked him. At least, even a brother or a sister would have been with him.
“Just call me Leo, I don’t want to mention my full name. Yes, I’m alone, since I became an agent, I’ve been separated from my parents.” he states. She nodded in agreement.
Rhianna didn’t say another word. She could already see from her seat the crowd, perhaps that was the town. They stop in front of a store. A clothes store based on what she sees inside. She got out of the car.
Rhianna followed Leonardo into the store. When they entered, she was exposed to a row of clothes. Leo went to a row of women’s clothing. He motioned for Rhianna to come over, so she immediately approached him.
“You buy the clothes you want and I’ll pay.” he said.
Rhianna looked for clothes that could be worn for home and for travel. She looked at Leo who was behind her and standing. She shifted position and went to the section for shorts and pants. She turned to look at Leo again but he was no longer behind her. She roamed her gaze inside the sre. Rhianna saw him talking to a woman. Based on the woman’s attire, she was probably the saleslady of the store.
She suddenly felt annoyed. She took her eyes off them and distracted herself from finding shorts and pants. Rhianna was choosing when suddenly someone approached her.
“Hello Miss, may I know your name?” asked the man in front of Rhianna. He is tall and has tan skin. His eyebrows are thick. He held out his hand to Rhianna.
“Do you need anything from my girlfriend?” said a baritone voice behind her. Rhianna didn’t have to look back at who it is. Leo, why did he tell the man that his girlfriend is Rhianna?
