Chapter 77 - Gonna Have You Back

Jamal turns off the boat engine in the area where he always goes for scuba diving with his friends. This place has a nice view of the underwater with a lively reef, coral and colorful fishes. It also a quite deeper and good place which most of the divers like to go to.

Jamal turns his body around, looking at everyone with a smile on his face. "We've arrived at my best-recommended place! Suit up, guys." He claps his hands.

Luna then nods her head and took out her boot and fin before she went to the side of the deck boat. After a minute she then goes to the other side and taking out an oxygen tank with Raymond's help. He was in the middle of the way when Luna want to take the tank out and he offers her his help while Brian was talking to the kids.

Brian is telling the kids that they will go for a dive for at least one or two hours before they came back and hope that they will behave while they're gone. Jamal will guard the kids while Brian, Raymond, and Luna go diving under the water.

While putting the fin under her boot, she glances over to the man who wore the buoyancy compensator on his body, standing right next to her. "Can you go on diving? Is your head good?" She asked because she was worried that he wants to do this activity when he just had brain surgery five years ago. What if something went wrong while he's underwater?

Looking down at the girl, Raymond nods his head. "Yeah. My physical condition is good. Are you worry about me?" He curled up his lips and bend down taking the mask and squatted down behind her back.

Stammering a bit, she turns around and takes her snorkel to put on. "N-no..why would I?"

"Um…you know Ms. Luna..not many people know I had gone to surgery. You were just made your mistake by asking me that, which makes me…" He put the mask on her head and tied it to her comfortable. "believe you were mine. And I..gonna have you back. Okay?" He whispers close to her ear.

Luna could feel his warm breath brushing against her sensitive skin, her heart pounding and her face feel warm. She immediately put on the snorkel and ready to jump down the sea.

Splash! Huge splashing water landed on Raymond's face and body which makes him smirked. "Yeah, don't run away, darling." He also put on the gear before he goes on jumping down the water.

…

"What the…" Brian was speechless when heard the splashing sound from the deck. When he saw Luna was already gone and seeing how fast Raymond put on the gear before he also jumping to the water, Brian could only sigh and avert his eyes back to the kids.

"Alright kiddos, I have a guarding mission. So…remember what I've said, okay? Don't cause trouble to uncle Jay." Brian ruffling on both of their hair before he went out to the deck and wear his gear.

Just after Brian jumps down, Lily avert her eyes to Jamal and blinks her big eyes to him. Jamal was currently air-out the lifejacket on the deck railing for drying it out.

Alex who knows the que from her then took out his phone and flip it horizontally. Open an app for a mobile game and start to play it. When Jamal went inside, he was a bit shocked to see the gadget that Alex was holding.

"Wow! I didn't know iPhone had this model? Is it only sell in the US market?" He excitedly asked and forgot that he asked four-year-old kids who supposedly doesn't even know about the market or anything related to it.

Alex's faces turn a bit pale. It's, of course, doesn't exist in any other country as he's the one who invents it. He altered the model for him to easily play his game. Normally, he only takes out the gadget he invent when both of their parents were out.

And now he totally forgot that there's another person who stays behind with them right now. 'Uh-oh!' He averts his eyes secretly to Lily at the opposite seat who also sighing while facepalming herself.

She then mouthed to him, "You owe me a big-time, idiot!" before she standing up and pat on Jamal's shoulder.

"Uncle Jay.." Lily calls out his name before clicked something which has a flashlight within less than two seconds and after that, Jamal blinks his eyes a little.

"Yes, Lily?" He asked and using that opportunity, Alex hide the gadget inside his pocket and stay calm.

"I feel like I wanna go for snorkeling. But, I don't know how to swim." She makes a cute face and hides her small hand behind her back.

Jamal who was awe by her cute action tilted his head. "Aw…but I just hung the lifejacket to dry it out. How about we play some question game until the jacket's dry and after that, I take you to snorkel around here?"

Lily was excited to hear that suggestion. "Really?"

"Yeah..but are you not afraid of seawater?"

Lily shakes her head. "No..I just want to try it out." She never goes for snorkeling before and she only goes playing at the water park and not a real sea though. So, she doesn't have any idea if she also will seasick when she swims later.

"Okay..but before that…we play the game first." Jamal smile and turns to look at Alex. "Are you in, Alex?"

Alex gulped a bit before he nods his head. "Yeah." hoping that Lily's program is worked out. The truth is, he's the one who renovating the equipment and Lily run the program to each of the equipment he made. They like to experimenting using the access Lily's has from the birthday present her mother gives her each year secretly which is already been programmed to send it to her without anyone know about it.

"Alright..let start now."

…

Under the sea,

Raymond taking a picture of the coral and reefs with the beautiful and colorful fish swimming peacefully near the scenery.

Luna was attracted to the photo taken by Raymond. She had no idea that Raymond knows how to take a photo like this. When they live together, she never saw Raymond took out his camera.

Maybe it is the side that she doesn't know about him. Raymond shows her a few photos and then takes her hand, signaling her to go down further. Just when she wants to go with him, Brian grabs her other hand.

Signaling her to stay beside him and go to the other way. That makes Luna in trouble. She did want to explore more and see the nice view with Raymond, but on the other side, she also believes Brian had his own reason.

His reason is to protect her identity from him or else she will hurt again to beyond rescuing. She looks at both of them, not knowing who to choose.

Sighing inwardly, Raymond steps back from his ego and invites Brian too to go down there. He saw a group of fish swimming down under, he believes there must be something good there, maybe a ship's ruin? Or something interesting to take a picture?

Brian looks at Luna's hoping face before he finally agrees to him. 'This girl…don't you know you're near his trap again?'
