Chapter 92 - 92. Labengki Island

Edwards and I really went on vacation tonight, we even got off at Haluoleo Airport in Kendari City. Indonesia. we arrived in the morning, around 6 am local time, because if we go to this place we must arrive early in the morning. one of the guides ordered by Edwards has also welcomed us well.

Some of the bodyguards accompanying Edwards at this time had also disguised themselves as tourists. I feel more comfortable on vacation like now, because he said to the island you will visit later. We will have a long journey, because Labengki Island has not really been managed as a tourist destination, so if we want to go there we need special preparation. For example, setting up a boat rental. If you don't want to be bothered, you can also use the services of a tour operator as a guide to Labengki Island.

Luckily Edwards had plenty of money, so we immediately rented the things we needed.

The journey continues to Toli-toli Village for about two hours by motorized vehicle. I've got on a motorbike driven by local residents, I gave a sweet smile to greet them. Because he said Indonesians are very kind and understand that if we smile, they will smile back and accept us as polite guests.

There are also some things that I have to understand when I'm in this place, I can't speak rudely, wear polite clothes, don't be mean to other people and always behave well. The customs that exist in Indonesia are indeed thick with culture, and I really appreciate all of that.

The journey is quite far, even though this is my first time riding a motorcycle and I have to hold my buttocks to feel comfortable, but I'm still happy. because the rural air and tall trees allow me to see the natural scenery.

Every now and then Edwards waved at me, he had said that I was really going on vacation. Because Edwards didn't want to rent a helicopter to get to the island we were going to visit faster, he wanted to enjoy the air and nature. Yes, one of them is by traveling overland which is quite extreme. But Edwards said that everything will be fine, we already have a good and trustworthy Tour Guide.

Redeem for quite a long time, we arrived at the coast. we will continue the journey across to Labengki island using a speedboat. Edwards held my hand, we boarded the speedboat that had been provided.

"Are you tired? Drink this first." Edwards gave me a drink of water, I accepted it well. Edwards's eyes continued to look into mine. the morning light in this place was perfect, making Edwards' face clear.

"You drink too. It's fun riding a motorbike. You often go on vacation like this?" I asked, handing Edwards a water bottle.

"I often travel alone. Several times accompanied by bodyguards. It feels so different when I can travel in a simple way like this. It makes me feel more enjoying the scenery and getting to know many things I don't know. like this?." Edwards said after he drank the water, I who heard the question in the last sentence just smiled.

"I've actually wanted a vacation like this for a long time. When I was little, I never took a vacation organized by the school. Even though at that time I really wanted to camp with them on the island or in the forest. So when you invite me like this, I So I can feel what I really wanted first." I said honestly.

"This is just the beginning, after this you will experience nature in a different way again. We will camp and sleep under the night sky, See the stars in their perfect shape. I'm sure you will like it, and I will make sure you have a great holiday. you've been dreaming of for a long time." Edwards stroked my head gently, I was touched by all his treatment and sweet words.

"Thank you Edwards." I say.

"No need to thank me now, say it when we get home later. Let's wear the life vest, so we can minimize circumstances beyond our control. If we are on vacation like this, we must always obey the existing rules." Edwards said as he helped me put on the life vest. I could feel Edwards' happiness so loose during holidays like this.

He is so caring and affectionate, It feels good if I really loved by Edwards like I am now. Does Violet feel all of Edwards' love? did she know how comforting it was, when all of Edwards' attention was on her?

I dunno, I just had the feeling that Violet had never really seen all the love in Edwards' eyes.

"Have you ever taken Violet on a vacation like this?" I asked, when Edwards had finished helping me put on the life vest.

"Yes, but she asked to go home. She said a vacation like this only makes the body tired and is a waste of time. So I never take him again." Edwards said quietly, he put the life vest on himself.

"It is clear that Violet is not someone who wants to take a vacation like this. She prefers to go to the mall and vacation abroad and enjoy everything with adequate facilities." I said, and Edwards immediately nodded in agreement with what I just said.

"I thought you were like that too, if only you had refused to ride a motorbike. We could have just rented a helicopter and immediately arrived at the island we were going to. But in fact you wanted to and instead looked happy." Once again I heard Edwards' very honest words. I heard that hit his arm and we laughed together.

"Are you all ready? We're leaving now." The tour guide has asked about our readiness, One of the bodyguards nodded and confirmed that we were ready to go.

After making sure we were all ready to leave, the Speedboat Driver told us to pray with each other's beliefs. I saw how Edwards really obeyed when asked and he prayed very seriously. You can imagine, how a rich man who drives the world's economy, now accepts only when ordered by others, even for the first time I saw Edwards praying to God.

True, Edwards was very different in a place like this. I feel that this is the real Edwards. Edwards Which is incredibly beautiful..

"Hold my hand, if you're nauseous or dizzy. Lean on my shoulder, it'll be a long journey. But we can see a good view of the ocean.." Edwards whispered softly beside my ear, I who heard this immediately nodded and held his hand well.
