Murder In The Old Castle
358. Last Kiss
Slowly Maya approaches the voice calling her name. He was curious, wanting to know who was actually hiding behind the statue of Zeus. However, not until he saw who was actually there, his hand was suddenly pulled, and his body was squeezed. He felt a kiss landing on his face. Maya struggling, trying to resist. He pushed the body that held him in his arms.
"Stop, Ryan! Stop that!" said Maya.
"I miss you, Maya. Missed you!"
Ryan keeps trying to kiss Maya blindly. Maya who was not in good shape that day again pushed Ryan strongly.
"Stop, Ryan! The time is not right! What if someone knows? do not let this stupidity bring us misfortune. Mariah already knows our relationship, and in the meantime I need to stay away from you. Don't fuck everything up!" said Maya.
"What-you mean?" ask Ryan.
"Mariah rebuked me for stopping this. He asked me to stop to see you. I wonder why Mariah knows all this? Maybe he caught us at night. I don't know. We can't be seen together anymore" Maya said.
"Ma'an Same. Mariah also rebuked me about this. I don't know where he knows either. I'm not commenting on anything. So I let it go, he couldn't comment on anything, he told me to go back to Nadine" Ryan said.
"This castle is his, Ryan. So even if we hide anywhere, it must be found out. That's why we need to hold back first. You take care of Nadine, Ryan. I'm not going anywhere!" said Maya.
Paras Ryan looked sad. He shook his head. After breathing out, he was ready to tell a story.
"Maybe this is our last meeting, May. When I kiss you, it may be your last kiss. To be honest, my thoughts remain with Nadine. I don't know why I can't betray Nadine anymore. I love him, Maya. And what we're doing is a mistake, so we have to stop" Ryan said
"Whatchu mean? You want to run away from all this? Don't tell Mariah you're leaving me. Don't leave me Ryan!" pinta Maya with an anxious face.
"No Maya. Sorry if all this is disappointing. Decision's unanimous. I'll go back to Nadine, and I'll leave you. We have to end this. I know, you liked me a long time ago, but it was Nadine who won my heart. Everything we do is wrong. I can't hurt him anymore. Sorry, May!" said Ryan tergas.
"You can't be alone like that, Ryan. After you've done everything to me, then you want to just walk away? Don't be selfish! You think I have no feelings? Not Ryan! Or do I need to tell Nadine directly about our relationship?" Maya starts to get emotional.
"You don't go crazy, Maya! You know now is not the right time. We are all here threatened by his safety. We can't make this even more messy!" said Ryan.
"I don't want you to go, Ryan. You have to answer for everything you have done for me. Don't play with my heart, and now you want to go back to your wife. I can't accept that! Can't!" maya was half strangled.
"Silent Maya! Someone will hear!" Ryan reminded as he tried to cover Maya's mouth.
"Let's all hear! Let them know your crime! You don't think I'm hurt by all this. Just so you know, Ryan. I stopped menstruating for two weeks. You have to answer for all of that!"
"You mean ... you?" asked Ryan with a pale face.
"Yes, Ryan. I'm pregnant!"

After finishing all the affairs in the city, Mariah returned to the castle that afternoon as well. Mariah drives through the hills covered with green tea plants. The streets were a bit winding and up and down, so Mariah had to increase her alertness. The weather outside was hot, as the sun shone perfectly, as if showing off its prowess as the ruler of daylight. Mariah drank cold orange juice in a bottle, which she bought from a supermarket. While in his car there was an old song from the 90s owned by Phill Collins who deliberately turned it to cool the atmosphere.
For a long time he was driving, suddenly he saw something unusual. A human figure appeared to be lying on the side of the road, under the scorching sun. Mariah was surprised by the discovery. The location is not far from the castle, so he thought maybe this person was a murder victim. Soon Mariah pulled over the car, not far from the lying figure. He came down quickly to approach the figure.
He held the man's wrist to feel his pulse. Apparently still feels the beat, although a little weak. When Mariah was about to examine the neck, then she realized that the figure lying was a man who was familiar to her.
"Edwin .. jeez! What the hell's going on? Win! Win! Wake up!"
Mariah tried to wake up a man who was none other than Edwin. He patted the man's cheek to wake up, but he remained silent. Mariah racked her brain, what did she have to do to make Edwin sober? A moment later he remembered that he had been shopping a lot of needs in the supermarket. Without wasting any time, Mariah immediately took a bottle of mineral water from the car, then took a little to sprinkle on Edwin's face. He hoped that the splash of water would make Edwin aware.
"Edwin wake!" whispered Mariah.
Mariah's efforts bore fruit. A splash of water soaked Edwin's eyes, making the man slowly open his eyes. He looked around, but he looked still blurred. Shortly after, Edwin found Mariah's figure suddenly in front of him. He was happy because he thought he was dead. Mariah's presence made her feel very confident that she was still alive.
"Mariah .... "
"Thank God you're alive, Win. What's going on?" mariah asked while giving Edwin a bottle of water.
Thirst suffocated the esophagus so much that Edwin immediately received a bottle of Mariah's hand. He immediately drank the water in a bottle like a thirsty camel. After a little quiet, he started to tell stories.
"I .. I was unconscious. Just fall off. I was looking for a bottle of water that fell, while Rosita .. oh yes, I was with Rosita. Where is Rosita? Is she okay? Help him .. I'm afraid someone's after him! Where's Rosita?"
Edwin looked panicked and tried to get up. He looked around, but all he saw was a green tea garden. Mariah tried to keep Edwin quiet.
"You better calm down, Win. Let's get in the car, and we'll check on Rosita at the castle. Maybe your wife got there first!" take Mariah.
"No! Rosita walked with me, and then the bottle disappeared so I searched. But I haven't seen the bottle yet, someone hit me on the head. I ... I'm worried about Rosita!"
"I'm sure Rosita's fine. Now set your breath first, after this we return to the castle!" take Mariah.
"I .. I remember. Rosita and I walked the path .... "
"Which path? You're a position where it was, Win?"
"Rosita and I went for a morning walk on the tea plantation to the hill. My head was hit hard, but I could not figure out the hitter. I fell unconscious, because my head felt dizzy. My eyes twitched, then I was dragged elsewhere. Once I realized, I didn't know where I was. Then I looked for the highway, because I knew the direction of the castle when I reached the highway. It's just that the heat of the sun made me very thirsty and fell unconscious" Edwin explained.
"After that. If you feel good, let's go back to the castle, and we find out where Rosita is" Mariah said.
"I've done it, let's go to the castle soon!"
Without waiting for a long time, Edwin was immediately seen standing, although still a little staggering. Mariah helps Edwin to get into the car, and then they return to the castle which is located not far from the place.
