Chapter 2 Vivi As He Remembered

• Even if tomorrow comes, his not sure if he has a family that's waiting for his return, nobody even looked for him when he was taken, does his father already been found?
• Before he was taken to pay the debt of his father, his father was already missing for a week, how's his brother even doing now?
• Polly was younger than him, he was taken after turning one hundred fourteen years old, after his second gender was revealed as a Dominant Omega, and Polly about to turn one hundred ten years old in five months.
• It may be confusing, but they were not the real half brother, not the same father with a different mother.
• “Mother?”
• He asked himself.
• “Was she sad, that I'm gone for long? Maybe she doesn't care because I'm not her blood anyway, as I reminisce those memories that I long buried, I feel like drowning in cold water, I was just fresh 114 years old back then, and now I'm 200 years old, my youth is wasted together with my body, why does this have to happen to me in the first place? And of all people, why me?”
• He can't help but savour the memory, as they flash one by one, like it happen yesterday.
• (FLASHBACK SIX YEARS AGO)
• “Aru lets walk home together? And pick mother some flowers.”
• He was still writing some notes when Polly approached him to his desk, from the other side of the School.
• The public school they're both studying was divided into two parts by a road, from the left highway was the high school and from the right highway was the elementary school.
• That it wasn't trouble if Polly wants to join him for a walk.
• He was a high school student now, and Polly was still in his higher elementary.
• Nodding in agreement, he cleaned his desk as the last words were written.
• Polly waited, when he was about to hold Aru's hand to leave the room.
• “Aru?” both head instantly turn from where the voice came from, when they saw it was ViVi's troubled voice, and saw how panic she was, they wondered what cause her to be this frantic?
• “Why are you looking for Aru? Where about to go home.”
• Polly comes closer to Aru and hold his backpack strap with two hands at the front, but she separated them, and stop in between.
• “Someone's looking for you Aru at the front gate, and they don't look good people at all, I ran back here to tell you this.”
• She says as her eyes were looking straight at Aru.
• “Are you sure they are looking for me? ViVi?”
• He smiled, ain't sure about this, but who would look for him? Did he do wrong? Or offended someone?
• “I'm sure it's you, they're holding a photo and I saw that it is you on it, and asking every student if they knew you, I'm scared for your safety, better leave from the back gate.”
• She bites her nails, a gesture when she's troubled, leaving Polly with a look of confusion between their talk.
• (Seeing her tensed appearance, I bet she's not playing trick, like every other student do to me who knows nothing but to bully and humiliate me) Aru said to himself, while he looked at her, testing the sincerity of her words.
• She walked back to look outside, leaving Aru and Polly looking at each other with worry in their eyes.
• Afterward, she came back running and much more in panic than before, coming from the window and her stiff body, gasping for air, she grab Aru's hand and about to pull him out of the classroom, Polly's fast enough to catch after Aru's free hand ready to run together.
• “Aru! We must run now, I saw them being led by another student, I think it's Juko who's with them.”
• Juko was one of the bullies who always nitpicking and loves to kick his desk, that makes his writing ruin, putting stones on his bag, and cause of his notes wet from urine, stealing his assignments and project.
• He doesn't know, but, cold eradicate the heat on his body from head to toe, he still stood there unmoving, maybe because he started to get scared.
• If it wasn't for ViVi, he would still be standing there, rooted to where he was, in a daze.
• She saw him paled, the natural colour of his face gone little by little.
• She holds him tight and, waste no time, hand in hand running.
• Using the backdoor, with Polly behind running after them, his feet run on pace with her, dragging him.
• Before the three of them could even reach the back gate, three more guys showed up.
• Ugly big bulky men looking back at them, ViVi's in trance, she didn't expect that the back gate was already guarded.
• Still holding Aru's hand tightly trying to run sideways, but they're cornered on all directions, she gritted her teeth trying to pull Aru and keep their run with the thinnest chance of escape.
• But Aru hold her back, not moving, face down, unreadable.
• “Hey kiddo.”
• The other guys who chase after them, called ViVi's attention, but gives no response, her eyes got confused as she looked at her hands and Aru.
• “Don't attempt to come closer, I will call my daddy!.”
• This was the last resort she could make, she even snarled at them, she looks fierce but not in the eyes of this many men, to their eyes she's just a kitten that needs to be whipped.
• “Hahaha, bro that girl was quite cute, trying to protect our little target.” the person who block the back gate pointed at her, with mocking laughter,
• “I'm scared of DADDY!,” they all laughed as he mimicked her to mock, ViVi whose will be was to protect Aru at all cost was not going
• to back down.
• ViVi, still holding Aru's hand tightly, trying all her means to protect him, she's an Alpha, but being an Alpha won't work, if they gang up on them, and take Aru via force.
• Aru's heart warmth as to how ViVi try her best to protect her, on contrary, Polly shrinking at the back of him, out of fear.
• “Aru I'm scared.” Polly said, shrinking at his back.
• He caressed him with his free hand, the Polly who's shivering from fright, if things becomes handful, he will choose the best option, not to involve this two, since they only want him right?
• “Don't be scared, Polly!.”
• Assuring Polly, should be done to him because he was the one who they needed after all.
• “ViVi I'm going to be fine, you can let go of my hand now.”
• What will happen to them if he doesn't go with them, and what will happen to him if he follows them to, who knows where?, questions ringing without answer.
• “No, Aru, they're bad.”
• ViVi insists, pushing him behind her back.
• She holds his hands more tightly, Aru felt a little pain, but ViVi didn't notice it because he was facing her back.
• “Hey kiddo girl, you want a taste of this? Or give that kiddo boy you're holding to us?”
• Raising the gun to ViVi's forehead, makes Aru scared.
• “What a lunatic! Pointing a gun to an early hundred years old teenager, especially a girl” Aru said in daze.
• ViVi still grasped his hand, unintimidated, indicating that she wouldn't let him go no matter what, but Aru doesn't want any of them two to be at harm.
• “Put your gun down, I'm going with you.”
• He moved forward, but ViVi won't budge.
• “What, Aru?” she squirmed trying to hide him, behind her back.
• ViVi's look at him worriedly, their eyes connected, but with no understanding, he can feel how much concern she had for him, but this will be the best for now.
• “ViVi, trust me this once, bring Polly home and tell mother about this, and she knows what to do afterwards.”
• He smiled to assure the other party, who doesn't want to let go of his hand.
• “Aru?” asking him unwillingly, she's going to cry, but he can't afford them two being in harm, this was the only way, he knows for now, afterwards he doesn't know what will happen.
• “ViVi, please let go, I'm really being fine, do what I say”,
• Smiling unto her again, and again to ease her worries, if it can be eased at a situation like this?
• But to ViVi this smile was more worrying than being assured, though she would rather not let go.
• Aru manage to break from her tight grasp, and walk with these big bulky men out of the school ground, he was terrified, as they all gather around him.
• At once, he's glad at the thought that they're going to leave ViVi and Polly, that he feel somehow at ease when he saw that they're leaving with him alone.
• “Aru!!!!!.”
• ViVi screamed before he could make a step inside the van, then someone hit him when he was about to look back and everything went blank.
• The last thing he saw was ViVi trying to run after him, but he was shoved inside and the car move in a screech.
• “I hope, to be still alive after this.”
• And let darkness win over him.
