THE LONG LOST LOVE

He scroll his mouse and find his picture below the article. A young man who looks like a mix-blood standing at the airport wearing a casual clothes. His smile is quite refreshing to girls eyes. Yes, he had a good looking face and figure too. Just like him.

He start to dig more about him, his company and identity. He won a noble prizes as the youngest billionaire when he was just 18 years old. He build his own company when he was just 16, start with the small business and the innovation he create.

He such an aloof guy and doesn't like to show up in the event that is not too important. Never had a scandal issues and very clean from the bribery.

He feels a bit challenge by seeing his achievement in such a young ages, he scroll down his mouse until it stop at one picture of him with a girl at the top of the building.

Even though the girl only showing her back he still could figure it out who is she. The tag on the picture saying 'With the goddess of wisdom'.

When he try to sneak into his profile again, suddenly his computer turn black and a worm figure pop out from his screen window.

There is also a word written on his desktop one by one.

'You reach the dead end Dude! Hahahaha!" and after the word completes, his computer drives suddenly overloaded with the virus and burn out.

"Fuck!" Aslan shout when his computer worth almost half a million was totally burn out. There is a fire spark come out from his PC.

He then went to his bedroom and took a bath before he went to sleep.

…

The next two days, he went vacation with Jye Yin and her artist manager Eng Suk Chin for a week. They went to Maldives with his private jet.

"Hey, did you have any problem? You face look like an old man." Jye Yin said as she lean on her beach bench. She wear a red bikini with a big sunglasses on her face.

Aslan turn to look at her. "Old man? Do I look old to you?" he chuckles.

"Nah..you look like uncle to me." she teased him.

"By the way, really As..you look like you had a big problem. What happen when you go to Imperial City? Did you can't forget about Athena? She married with Zoro right?"

Aslan scrunch a bit. "The invitation I got is not Athena's wedding. It's her sister. Aurora."

"Oh?? I thought it'd be Athena's wedding. They have been such a lovey dovey couple since they're in junior school. Hmm..So, what's the problem? You can't be likes that Aurora, right?" she giggles.

'Should I tell her? Or not? But, soon Athena will sign the divorce paper, so…its better if I didn't say anything yet.' he thought.

"Nothing, I just curious about this Zoro guy. Why did I never see him before? That's all."

Jye Yin sigh in relief. "Tch! Don't scare me like that As..hmm..about this Zoro guy, why you interested with him? Your business doesn't cross with him."

"I just wonder."

"He just a normal guy. He likes Athena since she was what? 5, I think..so they went to the same school from junior to high school and even went to the same University if I'm not mistaken. Zoro's father is one of the best friend with Uncle Lee. Hmm, Ramon is his father's name. Oh, don't ask me about his name. Because I don't know why his father give him a stupid name." she laugh before she continue again.

"Ahh..for your information, Athena really treasure him. She doesn't like to be around the society, so that is why she is a bit..umm. Snobbish and not really friendly. Zoro is also a person like her. So that is why they fit together. What else did you want to know?"

"How did you get this information?" Aslan look at her in disbelief. He trust her. Her information normally is accurate one.

That's what make him likes her. She was so easy to talk to and friendly too. She know how to dress up and her voice was so attractive to him. Not to mention that she got a hot body and beautiful face too.

"That is what you get when you got a lot of connection in entertainment world. You can say I do like to read and observed people."

She smile contently and extended her hand to him beside her.

"Here. Let me replenish your energy with my hand."

Aslan chuckles a little and hold her hand. She then bring his hand to her chest like she was making a wish.

"Dear god, let this best friend of mine get his energy back and let him enjoy this vacation with me to his fullest."

She said with a closed eyes, from the side angle Eng Suk Chin take their photo secretly.

She used a fake account and post it online with a caption 'Oh my god! our King and Queen was so romantic. I can't wait to hear they announce their relationship to the public! Let's pray for them to be the best couple ever!'

Within a minute, her photo with Aslan spread to the media social with a hundred thousand of share and almost three millions comment from her fans.

Aslan look at his phone when they lunch together with her and Eng Suk Chin. He look at the photo and then he show it to Jye Yin.

"Why your fans is everywhere?"

Shrugged her shoulder, she said "I don't know. Without them I can't stand in where I am now. So I glad I had them though."

"But, sometimes they over thinking things and always mislead everything. Such a noisy." he complaint.

Jye Yin squinted her eyes a bit. 'He never complaint about these before.'

"Why you don't want people talk about us? I mean, they had right to wish something like this right? It's not they pray something bad for us." she try to figure out why he acting like this.

"I had a reputation too. It'd be annoying if some of my business partner start to question my credibility as a leader. I don't want them to label me as typical president who will pick an artist to be his girlfriend."

Put down her fork and knives, she make a serious face and voice.

"So you're saying that you hate me because I've been celebrities and friend with you? Ouch! That's hurt Aslan, I've been your friend for years and now you want start to complaint about me as an artist will ruin your company? Really, As?" she wipe her mouth before she stood up.

Aslan feel a bit guilty. He immediately hold her hand.

"Hey, I'm sorry for being so emotional. Sit down please."

Jye Yin look at him with a bit sulking face.

"I'm sorry. I really am sorry."

Sighing, Jye Yin take a sit back in front of him. While Eng Suk Chin just being a watcher at the side.

Ding Dong!

Athena went to the door. She move out from her family house last week. After the marriages, she decide on moving to her own house in the City. It's been two weeks after the wedding, she totally forgot about the divorce paper inside her desk back at Lee mansion.

Open the door, she look up to the person standing in front of her right now. She gasp.

"Z!!" she jump and clinging on him as he also hug her tightly.

"Princess."

Release the hug, she led him to the living room.

"When did you return? How do you know where I live? Are you still mad at me? Wait, why you didn't tell me you return back today? I can go and fetch you at the airport." she shot him with so many question like a bullet.

"Hey, calm down will you. Let me take a sit first." he put down his bag and sit on the couch comfortably.

"Ahh..so nice."

Athena sit beside him, facing him like a cat. Patting her hair, he smile.

"Okay, okay..I'll answer your question."

"I just return hmm…around 3 pm. Who do you think I am? Of course I will know wherever you go. Hmm..about that, I think we can find a good solution for it. I didn't tell you because I want you stay at home and wait for me to come to you. So did I answer all your question?"

Athena nodded.

"Then, I have one question for you." he look at her lovingly.

"Did you miss me when I was away?"

Athena smile and nod faster. "Yeah, I feel so boring without you."

"Hmm..Athena, can we discuss the important matter, right now?" he turn to his serious voice.

Athena nod her head.

"So, tell me..how is your feeling toward him? Be honest with me. I wont mad and say anything either. We solve this matter by today, okay?"

Athena turn to look at the floor. She close her eyes and take a deep breath.

"It's seem that it wont go away. I tried so hard to let it go and forget about the feeling that I have for him..I.."

"Okay, I understand."

"How about me? What your truly feels when you're with me?"

"That's…I like you. I do. I love being around you and I love the way you treat me and care for me. I love everything that you do to me.."

"But, your heart doesn't belong to me right? Your heart still not engraving my name on it."

Athena turn silent. She start to teary up a bit. It's hurt her to hurt him. She know how he loved her. How he was so tolerate with her. She know, there is no one will be like him in the future.

Zoro was hurt, he really is. But he suppress his feeling with a calm expression he put on.

He bring her to his embrace when seeing she start to sobbing.

"It's okay Athena. At least I know you already tried. I can see you really work hard on it. You never abandon me for the past years when you know about my feeling to you. Let's start again as a friend, okay? I promised you I wont ask you again about this in the future. Whoever you choose to be with, I will always be by your side. Supporting you as a friend." he said while his eyes also start to redden.

Athena still crying on his chest.
