57 - Long Time

He just hung out on the balcony on the second floor of the house after he read a book. He would just look around but it seems that his decision to look around was wrong because he saw Gheron.

He did not see her so he just watched the young man freely. He was wearing boots, a thick coat and faded jeans. It no longer looked peasant because it looked clean even though it was still rugged to dress.

You say, because he's already rich you, Marie.

He scolded his brain. He could no longer change the weather. He will just end his contract and after that he will leave and will never return to this ‘farm’.

The man was carrying crops and because he was free to observe the young man's handsomeness even now, he stared at it. He knew it couldn't see him because he was on the high side of the farm house. That farm house is for those who want to spend the night inside the farm and experience the beauty of the place and how they take care of their crops.

His senses only soured when Marienella suddenly emerged from where he was. Except that they almost have the same name, it's still very close to the man. It’s even more sticky now that he knows Gheron is rich.

She bit her lip as Marienella caressed Gheron's cheek. He saw Gheron's happy smile and for a moment lowered the crop. It gripped the woman's waist and gently stroked her.

He could not bear what he saw. He went inside and went straight to his room on the first floor of the house. He lay down and covered himself with a blanket. He refrained from sobbing and being hurt but it seemed difficult to dictate to the heart when it was already hurting.

Why is he looking for that poor Gheron more? The deep Gheron who is always teasing and teasing him. Gheron who claimed he was his girlfriend in Sapporo. He was looking for that Gheron.

he calmed himself a few times and when he felt okay, he just read the book again. She pushed the man away from her brain and she didn't want to cry. He wanted it so he couldn't get hurt.



Marie stretched her body for a moment. He slept in the farm house for five days and was bored. He wants to do something with his hand and not sleep all day.

He took a deep breath. He decided to go back to work, he was okay. He is feeling well and does not feel any pain. He took a quick shower and changed his clothes for work that day.

He couldn't hang out for a few more days and then seemed to kill his heart every time he saw Gheron and Marienella together. The expanse of the farm but he sees them always together so the pain he feels only increases.

Then his cellphone rang. He saw his brother's name calling. He picked up his phone and answered its call.

"Ate!"

She smiled at her brother's soft voice. “How are you there? Are you okay? Mom? ”

“We are just fine here. We just need money Ate because Mama was rushed by her creditor, we are in the barangay now. They will not allow themselves to be unpaid today. ”

"W-how much does Mama owe?" He seemed depressed at what he heard. He sat back on the bed while waiting for his brother's answer.

"I have 50 sisters."

“W-what? But I thought Mama paid for it when I sent it before? ”

“That’s another debt from Mama, Ate. Mama owes a lot. Not just one person. Many as in many. ”

He was depressed. What else can he do? He is only a child and it is his obligation to raise the family. He has an obligation to pay the debt.

"Okay, I'll send… I'll just go to Furano to send."

"Just Gcash, sister, or Paypal or Bank transfer."

"I do not have that. My cellphone is old and not updated. I still need to buy a new one. All right, goodbye Mark. How are you, huh? ”

“Sige-sige Ate! Thanks. I will send you our picture so that you will believe that we are really in the barangay. ” Then it disappeared on the other line and it sent a picture.

His mother, facing the wife of their ward leader furiously. While the Barangay Captain is settling the dispute.

He took a deep breath for a moment and instead of going in for work, he decided to go Furano. He will just take the bus. Maybe their Team Leader won't look for him after all, he's on sick leave.

Carrying his old cellphone, bag and purse, he continued on his way. He was also on the flight for an hour and was able to send money well when he arrived at the Bank. He will definitely buy a good phone.

He first went to a Pastry Shop where Gheron first took him and enjoyed eating sweets. Exactly as she entered the shop, she was stunned when she saw the back of the man she knew so well.

"M-magnar?" he said its name softly but it turned around and hit their eyes exactly.

It reflected his joy when he saw her and from what he could see, he was buying a donut. Suddenly he remembered Gheron's love of cookies.

“Marie? What are you doing here? ” He approached her as he was carrying the box of donuts.

"Buy cookies," he replied bluntly.

"Cookies?"

He secretly laughed to himself. Even himself, also not sure of what was said. He doesn't eat sweets but here he is, inside the shop.

“Yes. I crave, ”he casually replied. It's like they're just friends now. He did not feel the love that enslaved him before for this.

"Yeah, same here." It laughed. “Treat me. Choose your fave cookies. ”

He did not refuse. His eye hit the dark cookies on display. He immediately pointed it out. This is what he knows Gheron likes to eat.

"Dark cookies?" It was amazing.

"Why?"

It shook and laughed. “Nothing. I remember your Gheron who loves cookies. ”

He was stunned. That's right, the two get to know each other and in those moments, it seems like she wants to go with the young man to really talk about what happened to them and also talk about how deeply it is to know Gheron.

After Magnar bought the cookies he had chosen, he invited them to have lunch together. Treat it and without hesitation he accepted the young man's invitation. He no longer had anger to get in his heart for Magnar. He forgave her forever even though she did not ask for forgiveness.

He was no longer surprised when they boarded an expensive car. Magnar traded him for a rich man, didn’t he? And throughout the trip, the young man's story was pure. Sometimes the sayings are funny of this, but sometimes he is especially quiet and Gheron enters the scene in his brain.

He loves Gheron but only until then. Maybe when he has lunch with Magnar, he will forget about Gheron for a while.



"HERE we will eat?" He was surprised when he was startled by the appearance of the Silver Garden.

With his brain so busy, he didn't even notice that they had reached Sapporo City.

“Yeah. My friend is the owner of this Restaurant. Let’s go? ” It smiled and came out first. It turned to open the door for him.

"Friend?"

It shrugged. “Yup. That friend of mine is rich. I'm always fooled. ” He laughed out loud then got serious. "Shall we?"

He accepted Magnar's hand that was presented to him when he opened the door. She smiled again and Marie admitted that Magnar was more handsome but that Gheron was the one who was beating crazy.

Suddenly he shrank in his clothes. He was wearing a heirloom and nothing had ever happened before. There was still a thick scarf wrapped around his neck.

“Don’t be. You are beautiful, Marie even if you don't have clothes yet. ”

"What?" he was stunned by what he heard.

"Just kidding." It smiled nervously.

He just nodded. If only her heart hadn't been broken now she might have fought the man and left him even though they were in Sapporo.

He entered the large hall of the Silver Garden for the first time. Glass is almost what he sees and has a large chandelier in the middle. Even here he worked, in the big kitchen and locker only to reach his foot. He was not allowed to wander inside so he was almost discouraged when he saw the whole thing.

Beautiful! He used to be rich and what he sees now cannot be measured by the word beauty. It's different from what he sees on the internet.

The waiter quickly took care of them and guided them to the center where there was a round table screaming gold and luxury. Marie will bet that her full salary on the farm is the equivalent of the food there.

“Why did you bring me here? You can go to Ramen House. ”

It just smiled and didn't bother to answer. The waiter approached the two of them and gave them the menu. Even though he had seen the menu before, he still couldn’t help but plummet in prices.

“The food here is delicious. Especially my friend Chef's dishes. ”

"Friend Chef?"

It laughed and briefly lowered the menu and got serious. “Yeah. Later I will introduce you to him. Don’t worry, I’m strong on that best friend of mine. With too much force, we can no longer pay. ”

He couldn't help but smile at the last thing Magnar said. Still nothing has changed in its habit, still goofy.

“There, you smiled. You often smile Marie. It's better for you. ”

She didn't feel any thrill at what he said but she still smiled. It was as if they had been friends for a long time and had just met again. There is really no anger hidden in his heart for this.
