Chapter 18: The meeting! And clarify the confusion
¶¶¶
"Unbelievable, we really went from West Blue to South Blue in an instant!"
Although she's never been here before, Olvia still knows that they've moved to another island the moment she sees the different people in the art store.
If she hadn't seen people different from the Ohara people, walking around in her husband's store with the same smiles and happy expressions on the Ohara people, she wouldn't have thought they had moved to another island at all, because the art store was the same.
Ignoring the scorching looks of Baterilla Island customers who were apparently ordering a new volume, Rob walked out of the store with Olvia.
His target today in Baterilla was to visit a certain person, who lived on the other side of town.
"So you came here when you left for southern blue in order to open your second store!"
Olvia's white hair was blowing in the warm Baterilla breeze, and her charm in the trendy clothes Rob had bought her from his system shop was beyond words.
"Yes, I forgot to tell you because I was busy composing One Piece chapters, you know."
Already in the past five days, Rob has been drawing the advanced volumes of One Piece, and he has already accumulated some of them, and this has left him plenty of leisure time to enjoy with his beautiful wife.
When the weekly publication day arrives he will only put up what he has for sale.
After all, his inventory is filled with copious amounts of volumes! Including new and ready-to-publish volumes.
Also, all these days he was thinking about what he would choose between North Blue and East Blue to create his third art store, in the end, he decided North Blue first as his nearest destination and decided to leave East Blue for last, this was to avoid early troubles.
After all, the eastern blue is the source of all evil in this world, and this is no joke at all.
Along the way to the other side of Baterilla Island, Olvia and Rob discussed how to talk to Rouge about everything and how they would interpret the event of Roger's execution to remove all the confusion and negative feelings that could form, since they are not very familiar with the other side and especially Olvia, first they have to build the perfect mood for serious talk.
...
..
In the wooden house that was accustomed only to solitude and nature, today there were unexpected visitors.
The moment Rouge saw Rob at her front door, she was amazed and thought her husband was here too, aftel all, Roger used to visit her with a few of his crew at every time.
Rouge knew every one of them, and Rob was no stranger to her.
But she was slightly disappointed when she found out that only Rob and his wife visited her this time, but she quickly cleared these thoughts from her mind, after all, this man was her husband's mate it is not good to show signs of her disappointment to her guests.
That would be disrespect for the kindness of the other party who visited her.
In the simple guest room, Rob saw the first volume book of One Piece on the table, open to its front page.
It same part as Roger's execution!
Rouge brought tea to Rob and Olvia, who accepted him with a smile.
Rouge sighed inwardly, it was a good thing that she had been shopping recently or else she wouldn't be able to bring any tea.
...
..
"So you broke up with the crew to live a happy married life... I'm really jealous of Sister Olvia for her luck... If only we had the same luck..."
"Haha, excuse my manners, don't take my words seriously, after all, Captain Roger's responsibility cannot be compared to that of a crew member..."
"No need to apologize, Rouge san, I understand how you feel and I think my wife will too."
Before Rob could continue to speak, Olvia nodded with a gentle smile at Rouge showing her complete understanding, after all, she herself would be jealous if the scales were turned.
She was a woman, after all, what woman in the world wouldn't want to live with the man she loved? To dedicates everything to her?
In the case of Portgas D. Rouge, it was really pathetic, to live alone in such a house so far from the world and all her concern was when her husband would return again from the sea, knowing that each visit stretched from months to years . .. It was really tormenting.
Now that Olvia has tasted the sweetness of love and happy married life, she cannot imagine living without it for long periods, though she can also be patient if she is forced to, but her innate desire to live a happy life still cannot be erased.
"In fact, I also was forced to leave the crew, after all, I was diagnosed with a fatal illness at the time. I didn't have much time to continue the pleasant journey with the captain."
Rob smiled, a smile so captivating even in the eyes of a married woman like Rouge, before continuing to speak.
"Olvia was that missing light from my life without which my life would not be perfect, so I chose to live the little time I had left with her."
Olvia squeezed Rob's hand hard, showing the worry that was re-digging in her heart.
"You..."
Rouge was shocked, but before she could show her deepest regret, Rob interrupted her.
"Don't worry, I found a cure for my condition recently, so I'm already cured, but the crew doesn't know that, except for me and Olvia, you're the third person to know this."
"It's really reassuring, Rob san, it's good to hear that you're doing well, you've really relieved me, I'm so happy for you."
"Thank you! Rouge san."
...
..
"To think that your real personality is so much fun is really so surprising, after all, you were as shy as a kid last time…"
"Hahahaha, his character is very good, isn't he, Sister Rouge?"
Even Olvia was laughing happily at this moment.
"Hahaha, yes it reminds me a bit of my husband…"
The pleasant conversation between the trio continued to take a turn for the better, as the feelings of affection deepened between the trio, it could be said that they became good friends.
...
..
"Rob san, I didn't expect you to be the one who wrote this... I mean, I saw the name of the owner of that art store but I didn't associate it with you at all... That's a really big surprise."
Rob and Olvia could see the light dimmed a little in Rouge's eyes, after hearing Rob's explanation of it all.
That dim light was a mixture of feelings of confusion, fear, anxiety, and even curiosity.
"Yes, Rouge san, we will be good neighbors from now on, since you had no friends before then I think my wife here would be happy to become that friend you need, right, my dear?"
Rob gave Olvia the green light to intervene at this moment.
"Yes, darling, we have become really good friends, don't you see?!"
Olvia approached Rouge and sat next to her before lovingly hugging her like a true friend.
"As Rob said before, he wishes for a better future than the one he paints in the depths of his heart, I believe he intends no harm to your husband deep down, even..."
"Hahahahaha, do you guys think I'm mad at something as trivial as this? Even Roger himself when he sees this book I'm sure he'll laughing with his usual laugh, and he forget about it as if it doesn't matter, he won't even need to ask you about this, Rob san, because he trusts his comrades more than himself, or do you not know this better than me? That you have already traveled with Captain Roger on the same ship."
"I can hear your true thoughts Rob san, I know you don't hate the captain and wish him a bright future in your heart, no need to try to justify your actions to me."
Rob and Olvia who willing to take the consequences all this time are surprised by the dramatic change in Rouge's mood.
It seemed as if it had switched from the night to the day!
But what Rob and Olvia didn't notice was that Rouge was shiverin g inwardly at the confirmation of the horrific truth she had now, due to her innate ability, the voice of all things!
