Chapter 31
"You must die now!" Melany shouted while raising her hand which had long claws out.
The claw almost hit Elisa's chest. But luck still accompanied Elisa. Melany's body suddenly flew away and hit a shelf of herbal concoctions. This destroyed the shelf. Until Melany's body was wet from the spilled potion. Elisa was surprised by what happened. Elisa didn't know if Tiana could do that.
"What happen?" Ben asked angrily when he saw the shop in disarray.
Ben saw Who was among the broken potion bottles. As he walked he approached Melany.
"You again!" Ben said. "I told you never to come here again and don't destroy my shop again." he continued.
Ben doesn't like Melany. According to him, the woman had an evil aura. This aura could destroy other people. Moreover, Melany can't get rid of her anger. The woman's emotions flared up so quickly. No wonder the king and queen don't like Melany. It was all because of the attitude that woman had.
"Damn! it's not because of me. but your lover made me like this." Melany doesn't want to be blamed.
Moreover, it's true that he wasn't the one who created the mess. Tiana quickly hit her body until it hit one of the shelves containing potions.
That girl is indeed impudent. Just wait when she becomes Luna. there would be no chance for Darius' little brother to bother him again. Melany will make everyone who hates her leave this pack.
"That's because you wanted to scratch my friend." Tiana shouted defensively.
Tiana doesn't want to be blamed because she is innocent. Besides, Melany really likes looking for trouble. So Ben will definitely defend himself. Tiana didn't have to give many reasons for her lover to believe her.
"Already! I know the nature of my Beloved. I also know your character now. You just leave here. I'll make a note to your father later to have him replace all of this." Ben said next.
Melany stood up, helped by her friend, who had been silent watching the argument. Without answering anything else, the two women left in front of Ben and the others. Melany walked angrily out of the shop. Melany couldn't accept being humiliated like that.
Maybe Melany should carry out her plan faster. If this continues, she won't be able to become Darius' Luna companion. After the departure of the two women who messed up his shop, Ben saw how much the woman had to replace. Luckily the potion that broke was not a rare potion, but just an ordinary potion. Many materials are still available there. Ben returned to the direction where his girlfriend and Elisa were. "I'm sorry Ben. I will compensate for the damage done." Elisa said when the man looked at her.
"Oh no need Elisa, I've already thought about how much I will ask Melany's father. the woman must be deterred. Melany has often caused that chaos here." Ben said again.
"You don't need to be afraid, Ben will take care of everything. we just need to practice making Potions." Tiana said calming her friend.
"Thank You." Elisa said while lowering her head.
"Are you ready to go? Have you planned where to go from here?" Ben asked looking at the two girls who looked the same age.
"We think we'll just go straight home." Tiana answered.
"Wait a moment." Ben said.
The man walked behind the table. Ben looked down and looked for something, after a few seconds Ben returned and had two herbal plants in his hand.
"This is for both of you." Ben gave the strangely shaped plant to Elisa and Tiana.
"What is this?" Tiana asked, noticing a plant with small skull-shaped flowers.
Elisa also paid attention to the leaves of the plant. Some of the leaves are round and also elongated. According to him, this plant is very unique. Out of curiosity, he touched one of the leaves. But as soon as I touched it, the leaf fell and eventually turned to ashes.
"Wow," Elisa even took a step back when she saw that sight.
"You can't touch it with your hands. You have to use another leaf for that." It was clear that the man took a leaf from another plant and then brought it closer to the plant that Elisa had wanted to touch.
The two girls could only be stunned when they saw the miracle before their eyes. Never seen that before.
"Is that using magic?" Tiana asked, still watching the plant.
"No. These plants are interconnected. If you want to use this leaf then you have to take the leaf from that plant. so that this leaf can detach itself from the stem." Ben explained.
Ben gave the leaf that had come off the stem to Elisa. "This will make your body fresher, smoother and whiter." Ben said next after the leaf was in Elisa's hands.
Elisa was surprised because the leaf disappeared as it sank into her body.
"Look at the plant returning to its original state. Yes, that's the advantage of this plant. can't just die like that." Ben said again.
"Thanks Ben. then can we go now? I don't want the king and queen looking for Tiana." Elisa said.
"Oh, I forgot. "Ben, then let's go back first," said Tiana.
Tiana took one of the plants then kissed Ben and hugged him. Meanwhile, Elisa took the other one and smiled at the two lovebirds who were madly in love.
"Ben, let's go first, okay?" Elisa said goodbye while lifting the plant.
Elisa even grabbed Tiana's hand, who was still holding hands with her lover. It's as if they don't want to be separated like that. When she saw this, Elisa was a little annoyed because of that. "Hey, you guys can meet again another time." Elisa looked annoyed at the two of them.
"I will miss you. You should come to my place often." Tiana said spoiled
"Yeah, I missed you too." Ben replied, letting go of Tiana's hand.
In the end the two lovebirds were separated. Elisa saw their scene which made her a little nauseous. their hands interlocked. more and more separated until finally Elisa had to forcefully pull Tiana away from Ben and out of the shop. "What the hell El! You're just disturbing the atmosphere." Tiana said annoyed at Elisa.
Again and again Elisa rolled her eyes in embarrassment. Elisa thought what's wrong now?
"You guys are too much. even though it's not even a thirty minute journey." Elisa said as she continued to walk away from Ben's shop.
Tiana just laughed when she heard that. making Elisa even more annoyed with the girl. But his annoyed expression changed suddenly when he remembered the incident again.
"Is it okay with Ben later Tiana? I mean, he doesn't have any problems dealing with Melany's family." Elisa asked.
"You don't need to worry El, Ben is used to the damage done by Melany." Tiana answered, still laughing.
"Why aren't you worried?" Elisa asked, confused by her friend.
The girl should be worried, instead of being calm like now.
"Melany is Ben's sister. so it can't be a problem." Tiana said.
Elisa was very surprised by this confession. Elisa didn't know that the two wolves were brothers. so different, like heaven and earth between the two. "Are you sure?" Elisa asked in disbelief.
How can you not believe it if the attitudes and characteristics of the two are inversely proportional. Ben is a good person while Melany is so cunning.
