WHERE YOU BELONG
ZARYA'S POV
When we arrived at the Human World.
"Get the most time you can have at the Human World." Hali spoke at me. He stepped slowly as we traveled by the long road. "Before you get killed."
"We have an agreement. I can't die without avenging my family." I managed to look at him in a normal way.
"It's up to you." He stopped walking, looked at me. I fought his stare even if I was prohibited to do it. "Do you want Khal to be safe?" He tapped one closer to me. "My friends? Alisha, Rozella, Froy, Tan tan?" His lips moved up.
"Yes, of course."
"Be with me, then, but tonight just enjoy your ass we're going to the bar. The next day, we'll plan to murder."
"Who will we be murdered?"
He shook his shoulder. "I don't know yet, but Froy investigated."
"The one who attacked us at the Light House?"
"You are annoying." That was his last words when he walked towards the red car which was waiting for us. I was so curious about them. They were living at the Elemental Kingdom and yet they had a property at the Human World? How did that happen?
Well, how about freedom day? Today, we were free, but tomorrow we were not. Surely, Higher King would find us and get punished again once we come back.
When we were in the car, I only watched the places, the cities, the building, the transportation, the bridge, the people squabbling, the traffic and all. This place I was supposed to live in when my family was still alive. I immediately wiped those thoughts remove from my head. I would just be sad when in fact, I should learn how to deal with it to avoid distraction.
I was amused by the palace we would stay in. It was another mansion with a swimming pool in front, had two floors, the wall was white in color that made it look elegant, plants were everywhere… it was so beautiful.
My feet paused from stepping when I saw a familiar man, sitting on the couch. My lips parted when he moved his head to face us.
"Khal…" A small smile was established on my lips. I managed not to run towards him therefore I would not look excited to see him again. I was messaging him on social media, but an auto-generated message was replying. He was a famous man, maybe someone was managing his account.
"Zarya…" A wide smile was established on his lips. He waved his hand at me.
"So happy to see each other again." Hali scoffed as he shook his head.
"Buddy!" Khal tapped his back. They did a man-to-man greeting.
After a short welcoming, we walked towards the couch.
"You're stubborn, aren't you? Everybody went abroad, but you were here." Hali immediately grabbed the wine that was on the table.
"I'm not alone. Froy's here." He looked up and there he was, Froy almost jumped from the second floor just to give Hali a tap on the back.
"I miss you, Dick Sucker!" Hali had a big smile on his lips. I hope he had always smiled. He looked like a good man with it, not a mad freaking king.
"I miss you, too, Pussy!" Froy responded to him. Boys will always be boys. They had dirty mouths.
"Zarya…" Khal moved closer to me. The shock crawled to my system when he hugged me.
"Seems like there's a reason why Khal doesn't want to leave the High Wood City." Froy gazed at our bonding bodies.
"So what's the food here?" Hali ignored what he said. They just walked towards the kitchen which we followed. "Is there mango shake? I love that."
"Yeah, sure. Your maid cooked something for you." Froy peeped on the stairs and shouted. "Hey, Babe! Come down here. Hali arrives!"
"Babe?" Hali's wrinkled eyebrow was formed. Even I, I was confused about who the woman was. The last time, he only did was playing with women. Perhaps another woman to play?
"Your maid," Khal answered with disgust to him. "He stays here because of your maid. He's so gross that even maid he seduced." Khal was shaking his head as he walked to the refrigerator. He gave me cold water.
"Thanks."
"You have never changed." Hali chuckled. He positioned his body in front of the table next to Froy. I sat in the opposite direction while drinking water. Khal sat next to me.
"How's life, Zarya?" Khal asked. I stared into his handsome face. His features did not change. He looked fresh at all times. His hair was fixed on two sides. I saw many people with that hair, but it was not suited them. To him, he looked like the character of Superman.
"I'm good. No new at all." My eyes went to the two men. Hali was looking at us. I was thinking he was commanding me to move away from a little. By his gaze, it told me what was his mind's content.
"Did Alisha, Tan Tan, and Rozella go abroad?" Hali let out a sigh before he gazed at the maid who was walking towards the kitchen.
"Not at all. I was not sure if Rozella. She doesn't want to leave the city. You know… she comes from a wealthy family. She can protect herself." Froy came closer to the maid and hit his butt. "Hi, Pretty."
I saw how Khal reacted to that. He felt disgusted with his friends. He was not like the other man. One woman at a time. He stick to it even Froy was telling that.
"She should go. Where is she?" The frustration was automatically written on his face. He was worrying about Rozella.
"We don't know. She's off to us." Khal let out a loud sigh. "I'm worrying, too."
"The both you…" Hali glanced at Khal and then to Froy who was now cuddling with the maid as the maid was preparing our foods. He was so gross, annoying. Hali paused before he continued. "I can't revive your life once the two of you die. So move your ass after the night."
"We're fine. I am a public finger. Everybody's looking at me." Khal shrugged his shoulder. "Hard to kill."
Froy pointed at himself using his forefinger. "Me? I'm a bastard. You should know that. No one's gonna miss me when I die." Froy's emotion seemed accurate to what he was saying. He did not care about death.
Hali scoffed as he smirked at him. "You can't fuck a pussy when you die therefore pack your things or I'll kick your balls." Hali hurried towards him. He was about to kick his lower part when Froy dodged. It was funny, so I chuckled.
"Pretty." My eyes went to Khal when he whispered that word. Pretty? Who? I would not assume. Surely, it was the maid.
"Zarya?" It was hard for me to absorb that Khal was calling my name.
I moved my eyebrows up and answered with stammering. "Yes?"
"Where's your home? Can I stay there instead?" Khal's voice was low, soothing every woman's heart. He was not just a nice-looking guy, but a kind one.
"None. I told you. I'm with Hali."
"You can go abroad with me, then?" He averted his look at me and whispered. "You're the reason why I'm staying after all."
"I can't." I gazed at Hali. He was with Froy, laughing with him while telling something funny to each other. "Hali won't allow me."
Khal settled his face at me. "You should think carefully. You said you've been at this world… at my world." He held my hand and pinched it smoothly. "This is where you belong."
"There's no place I've belonged." I showed him the courage I learned from all my experiences. "Only under the ground after fulfilling my mission."
