《The Zodians - Book 1: The Outlander》The Return of Warriors - Chapter 7: A Drink of Love
Advertisement
The boat slowly drifted on the big sea. The night sky imprints the moon and stars on the lyrical sea. Oh! The heart of love suddenly seemed to come back to life after so many years of silence! Everyone laughed and talked with wine and fruit cake on the ship. There is nothing better than the feeling of being immersed in the flow of the sea, with the moon wind and indifferent silver clouds. Aris stood with his back to the side of the ship, leaning back to admire this peaceful scene.
Megara walked over to him from the crowd with a glass of wine in hand. She turned to look at Aris, who was very comfortable handing over the wine glass, and said:
"Drink?"
Aris smiled, then graciously accepted. He brought it to his mouth and took a sip. Aris was about to finish the whole glass, but Megara was able to pull his hand back. Aris was surprised but didn't say anything. Megara suddenly smiled at him, then took back the half-empty glass of wine. She said:
“Hey, mine!”
With that, she drank the rest of the wine. The empty glass was placed somewhere nearby. Then Megara also stood with her back to the side of the ship like him, gently letting her soul follow the sea breeze. After a while, she looked back at the singing crowd over there. Her face wavered slightly. She nudged Aris' hand, following her with his eyes. Megara said softly:
“Look at them… How happy they are!”
"Who?", Aris didn't understand at first, but then came to know it thoroughly. “Ah… That's right!”
They here that Megara and Aris are talking about are Herone and Phalanx. They had found each other in their late ages, and now in their final moments, they too were happy. That smile, those eyes… not everyone has it! Unconsciously, both Meg and Aris reflected to themselves. Are they forever living a wasteful life?

Megara in a daze reached out her hand to touch his chest. Both of them looked at each other. She could hear her heart pounding inside that sturdy chest. Aris's side is also moving. He felt something change in his body. He took her hand and said softly:
“Meg… You're drunk.”
“We don't have much time together. So why not get drunk together?"
Whether it was due to the ale, or her own internal strength, Megara said every word with the calmest and most careless expression of her life. The two stared at each other in silence for a while. But then emotions still reign! Aris placed a deep and sweet kiss on her lips. Meg didn't stop her either. She warmly accepted it as a precious gift. Then Aris smiled, he looked at her with a passionate look. Not sure if it was the yeast or herself, Aris said quietly:
"Then let's get drunk together!"
With that, Aris and Megara left the singing crowd. The two made their way back to her private room.
The candle suddenly went out, and then another love blossomed.
