"BANG!"
After the last shot was made from the majestic and flawless exhibition, Davi stood there for a few more seconds without moving at all. The domineering yet calm and bewitching aura that enveloped her entire being was slowly being extinguished. It was as if she was shedding the immortal garment that was enveloping her entire being and her mortal self was slowly starting to come back again.
By that time, everyone was already silenced, entirely captivated and star struck. All the men that were watching her, except for Zaki and Little Shin, felt like they were about to fall on their knees and just worship her. Even Yang Rui was dumbstruck. He thought that he had finally caught up to the star he’d been chasing but at this moment, he realized that the star had once again, flown in a flash away from him, and was now like unreachable star in heaven.
Little Shin on the other hand clenched his fists. He was extremely excited during the whole time. His beautiful eyes lit up brilliantly as if some little supernovas were exploding in them, one after another. He looked at his mother like he was seeing a real superhero. And to him, she was. This super cool mother of his was indeed the heroine of his life.
When Davi finally put down her rifle, she turned towards the area where she left her son and saw a little fluffy bun already running towards her. Well, Little Shin was the very first to make a move and at that moment, everyone except for Zaki was still in daze.
Davi bent her knees because little Shin was already spreading his arms out wide, indicating that he wanted to embrace her, even though he still had a bit of ground to cover to get to her. Soon enough, the fluffy bun finally collided with her and he hugged his mother as tightly as ever.
"Mommy, you’re soooo amazing. You’re so cool and awesome and great!" He exclaimed with innumerable stars shining in his eyes.
"Thank you," Davi immediately replied as she hugged him back tightly.
"Mommy, I want you teach me. Can I have a real gun like yours? I want to become as good as you." The little guy suddenly requested and Davi’s eyes widened. Well, her dearest son was still just five years old. How could she possibly let him hold a gun?
"Uhm... Little Shin---"
Davi was about to reject her son’s request and explain the reason why when she suddenly heard a shriek akin to a superfan who had, by chance, just seen her idol on the street.
Both mother and son turned their heads towards the source of the sound. Upon seeing the shrieking girl, the mother and son both had the same reaction. They simply blinked three times.
Hinari? Why is she shrieking?
Auntie? Why is she shrieking?
The two simultaneously said the same words in their head as Hinari started running towards them, while the man with her followed slowly behind her.
The moment Hinari reached them, her eyes were twinkling and her hands were cupped. She didn’t jump on them, although the two were expecting something like that to happen, she simply looked at Davi like she was the world’s legendary superhero.
"Hinari, why are you here?" Davi asked as she stood up and Hinari just suddenly embraced her.
"Oh my god. You really are real. Oh my god, I think I’ve fallen in love with you!" Hinari said loudly, exactly like a superfan confessing to her idol.
That moment, a certain someone stumbled on his own feet as soon as he heard his fiancée blatantly saying the words ’I’m in love with you’ to someone else. He quickly caught himself and stood upright as he looked at the girl clinging like a leech to the shocked Davi, and his brows began to knit harder than ever.
However, he wasn’t the only one with knotted brows. The little guy beside Davi was starting to emit a displeased and cold aura as he looked at his aunt suddenly monopolizing his mother and not letting go.
"Uhm... Hinari. What’s wrong with you?" Davi asked confused. Well, she knew Hinari was always a sweet girl to her but the way she embraced her and clung to her at this moment was just a bit confusing for Davi. It was as if Hinari was drunk and was out of her mind.
"Hinari, are you drunk?" She asked again and Hinari finally replied.
"Oh my gosh! You’re so cool. I think you’re the coolest person in the world. Please marry me." She said and a certain spirit seemed to pass by as the world fell into an extremely quiet state.
Davi: "..."
Little Shin: "..."
Zaki: "..."
Everyone else. "..."
seconds... 5 seconds... 10 seconds went by...
The silence continued until Davi moved. She sniffed at Hinari but the girl didn’t smell of alcohol. Thus she held her shoulders to pull away from her when suddenly someone finally snapped.
Zaki, who was now enveloped with a glacial frost, pulled Hinari away from Davi, causing Hinari’s eyes to widen with surprise. Well, was he supposed to tolerate his fiancée shamelessly confessing and proposing to someone else right in front of his very face? Absolutely shameless and unforgivable!
"Hey, let go of me, beauty. Don’t interrupt me!" She said, obviously displeased that Zaki pulled her away. She was about to jump on Davi again when Zaki quickly wrapped his strong arm around her neck. Hinari was suddenly stuck, her back pinned against his broad chest.
"Hey, what’s wrong with you? I said let go. I still want to speak and hold my badass, Davi." She complained but Zaki’s grip tightened even more. The man moved his face next to her ear and the moment his voice reached her, a sudden chill ran down Hinari’s entire body and her eyes widened.
"Behave or you’ll die," he said. His voice was calm, even calmer than his usual tone but was cold enough that it terrified her deep into her bones.
That moment, Hinari could already tell that Zaki’s inner beast had reappeared again.
However, when Hinari instantly stopped moving, Zaki’s dark and cold aura disappeared. Once again, it was just for a fleeting moment, as though it was just in Hinari’s imagination.
"Stop messing around. Can’t you see Little Shin’s darkened face?" Zaki said in his normal tone and Hinari finally burst. She turned to him and caught his cheeks violently as she pinched him hard like she was trying to split his beautiful face apart.
"Damn you, Zaki. How dare you scare me!"
"Huh? Who’s scaring who? You’re the one who’s scaring us here. How could you confess and propose to a married woman? Even in front of your very own fiancé?!"
"...?!"
Huh? What?!
