Chapter 23 - Meeting a cocky

"Chuttie be careful. Okay."

While leading Aruth replied placing his hand into her head. He is actually bothered about her visit to another place alone because first time she moves to an unfamiliar place and alone. Not only him Chanchala and Prabuddhi also unsettled about this.

"Yes, darling don't go anywhere alone. Whatever happen be careful."

"Don't worry I'll be careful. And also, Kalo replied I'm not going alone most and best-defended person going with me."

Raki added those terms as a fun to carry out her companions feeling calm. However, in her heart, she was curious to know who this protector is. First time she is meeting someone that smart for fight. Raki figured out he must be extremely handsome and ripped person. She pictures a man in her mind.

"Oh... I forgot to tell you. Don't forget Arohi. We are now close to finish her treatment."

"Don't worry about her we will take care of her."

Chanchala said but Aruth remained restrained when he picked up Arohi's name. Raki acknowledged that however, she didn't mention anything.

"Chuttie come quickly. We are getting late."

Suddenly Luna turned to them and told. Everyone surprised not entirely her arrived. What she expressed for Raki. They didn't concern about much, but Raki felt annoyed when outsiders pronouncing her nickname.

"Can't you do me a favour?"

"What's that?"

While walking Raki asked for a request from her colleagues, but no one found out about that.

"Before I get here, could you explain these mountain people that my name is Raki, not Chuttie?"

Three of them laugh for what Raki said. They noticed she doesn't prefer when her nickname outsiders say. They further recognized that not only Luna, Kalo and Pruthvi also calling her like that.

They showed up to the place that Luna said. Raki only got her medical equipment, because Luna remind that she doesn't want to pick up any clothes and they have to walk to the place. She follows her messages without expressing any objection and Kalo also mentioned it's comfortable to go without heavyweight. Moreover, Raki offered the book to Luna that she received as a punishment.

"I already completed writing this book."

"OMG... you turned into a wonderful girl Chuttie."

Luna surprised after discovered that she has finished her task immediately. Moreover, this book that no one couldn't finish. However, Luna thought she must not fished every question, but she didn't have much time to go through. So she determined to notice that afterwards.

On the other hand, Raki was irritable.

"Raki..... my name is Raki. Okay. If I didn't give it on time, you will give me a huge book to study and write the questions, because of the delay to submit the paper. And you will say I don't care about your extra responsibility and I don't want your excuses."

Raki said while lifting her eyebrows. Luna surprised about her argument and laugh.

"Definity I'll give you if you delay submitting this paper Chuttie."

Luna said with a smile. Everyone knew Luna is a hard character, and no one noticed her smile for a moment. Raki was surprised when she saw her smile and she realized how pretty she is.

"Now with whom I have to go?"

To escape from Luna, Raki said. Luna showed Mask to her and called him. Mask took place near to them. When he showed up near Raki talk to him directly.

"With whom I have to go?"

Again he called for the same question from him. He didn't mention anything but showed a person behind them.

"You're leaving with him. He is Agni."

Mask showed him to Raki. She angles into that side to look at who is that person. There was a man putting on a black and protecting his face with a hoody.

"Is this the guy who attack me on the ground and that bird's owner."

After knowing with whom she leaves her legs turn into swing.

"OMG, what the misery is this. Why I need to go with him. Why he should be the one in this mountain to be the best defender."

While shaking she struggles to analyse everything, but her whole body turned into paralysed. Mask noticed her transformed.

"Why? What happened?"

"Nothing."

She pretends to be okay. However, she is waving from inside, but Mask understood her behaviour.

"Are you terrified for him?"

"No. why I want to scared for him? I'm not,"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes but."

"Yes, but, why?"

Unexpectedly Mask became familiar with Raki and she also became chatty with him. She freely chats with him, not like others.

"Yes, I'm scared."

"Why?"

"He always covering his face with his hoody and I can't see his face and he is my enemy."

"ENEMY? How?"

"When I came first here, his bird hurt me and on the ground, he hurt me. He is such a bastard."

"I'm sorry for my rude words."

Raki became sorry about her words that came from her mouth. She knew her mouth doesn't have the break sometimes. Whatever happen she thought that's not a politeness to talk like this with an adult. However, Mask became really enjoyed with talking to Raki. Her action and her face expression brought a smile to his face.

"He is not really awful."

"Oh really. That's your perception. Everyone felt how bossy person he is."

Their communication turn into an argument. But it's not became worse.

"I'll tell you a secret, but you should not tell anyone. Got it?"

"Don't worry. I'm not,"

He explains everything about Agni's hoody story. It's arrived when he was small. As a child, he was highly kind-hearted, smart and a best warrior. Still, he is, but he dropped his kind-heart when he becomes a teenager. No one knew the figure out, but they thought his face make that problem. That happened when he left to practice swords fighting. No one couldn't look upon him, because injured happed near to his eye. As a mischievous child, everyone became fearful to deal with, because if something cropped up to his eye rest of the whole life he couldn't see anything. So they fear about his eyes. Without any treatment his injured turn into bad scar. That fact developed into a reason for somehow his hoody.

Raki understood everything.

"The step that doctors took is wrong. Otherwise, they could treat properly."

"Can you treat him?"

Mask asked that question from her because he didn't expect a perfect answer. However, Raki didn't take considerable time to answer.

"Definitely I could, but I'm not going to treat him."

"Why? You don't know how handsome he is?"

He spoke while raising the lips at each corner of the mouth. Raki was surprised he is talking about beauty of that guy.

"I can't eat his handsome. He isn't handsome for me. Never."

Raki raises the cheeks and escape the giggle that brought to her face. She talks while placing her hands in her waist. Their conversation brought a recognition to one party. That's Wega who is Mask's wife.

"if Agni heard that he will hit you."

Wega said gently. Raki shocked when the 3rd party enter into their conversation.

Wega understood Raki is frightened when she showed up suddenly in front of them. So she thought to bring in herself first.

"I am Wega. Mask's spouse."

"Oh... I am Ra..."

"I know your name Chuttie."

"Not Chuttie I am Raki."

Now Raki got truly annoyed when she picked up from others her nickname. While raising her eyebrows. Wega also attract to her talk and expressions. She thought if she had a daughter like her. Wega knew that she couldn't give a birth to a baby anymore. So she forgets about her dream about a child after a long time. However, when she looked at Raki's face suddenly her shattered dreams growing up. Without noticing her whole heart cried begging her.

"We have to move now."

Kalo said while examining everyone's eyes. Before he receives a step Mask mumble into his ears something that no one understood and Kalo also shake his head to confirm his words. And thus suddenly he cried for Agni. When Raki discovered the name from Mask, she turned into frozen, because she felt he will confess everything to him that they talk.

"Why is he asking for him? Why he need to come here."

Bundle of question pop up in her mind with worry. She couldn't even figure out anything.

"Agni.."

"Yes.."

His arrogant appears from his words. There isn't any kindness or consideration consist of those words. Raki seemed sorry about herself because from today her journey start with this arrogant.

"Raki be concerned with this egotistic person. Good luck."

She murmurs into herself. Raki struggle to identify his face, but she couldn't. As a result of his hoody became a barrier to look at his face. However, Agni could see plainly through his hoody. No one recognized that.

"Agni you have to promise for everyone you will take care of Raki."

"Okay."

"And still, if he tocher you or tears you. Let me know I'll punish him."

Mask added those words while surprising everyone. Because no one figured out, he will reveal those kinds of words for comfort this little girl. Wega also shocked. When Raki heard those last words from Mask she was chilled. She guessed there is some from her back and that feeling motivated her to deal with everything.

However, Raki saw Agni's cunning smile that reached to his face. She noticed the reason for his laugh. His hoody covered till his nose, so Raki caught his beard face openly.

Few minutes later everything became ready for the tour. Wega moved near to Raki and grab her hand.

"Don't worry. Agni isn't a bad boy. He is wonderfully friendly boy."

"Are you joking with me? I notice how rude person he is."

Raki whisper into her ears, because she doesn't required to identify their discussion to others. Wega also became wary about their talk.

"No, he isn't."

"Yes, he is. He is like a monster."

Wega laugh for her words. Everyone felt he is bad temper person. However, everyone love him because of his handsome create everyone's consideration, but no one remain a long period with him. Because they didn't recognize him from inside they just only like his outside.

"Okay, I'm agree with you. I'll tell you a key he will not turn into a monster if you listen to his words."

"Okay, I'll try my best."

"you are the best girl ever I see. Good luck Chuttie."

She squeeze her cheek. Raki felt how sincere and soft when she touches her cheek. She looks into Wega's eyes. Raki noticed how simple those eyes are and those are packed with kindness and love. She quickly avoids her eyes.

"My name is Raki, not Chuttie."

"Okay."
