169 Days With Mr. CEO
16. Memories

That morning they decided to say goodbye. Daniel and Alicia hug Uncle Ben and Aunt Ye and then switch to hugging one by one the children.

Bianca gets a hug from Uncle Ben and Aunt Ye.

"If there's time, Bianca can come here." Said Aunt Ye on the sidelines of her embrace. Bianca nodded her head enthusiastically.

"Bianca's brother Sasy made it himself." Sasy handed a soft pink knit scarf to Bianca.

"For me?" Tanya Bianca who got the nod of Sasy.

"Thank you Sasy." Bianca hugged Sasy.

"Sama-sama, see you brother." Sasy muttered in his arms.

One by one the children hugged Bianca and expressed their gratitude.

That morning all the children held back their tears at the departure of Daniel, Alicia and Bianca.

Timmy helped get things into the car.

After saying goodbye, the car driven by Daniel slowly left the yard. Bianca and Alicia waved at them.

Maurin appears to be crying in Uncle Ben's arms. The toddler stretched out his hands, like he wanted to participate.

Alicia laughed and waved her hand.

Along the way, Bianca starts to open her little bag and picks up her cell phone.

Being in the village for three days made it difficult to contact the people closest to him because of the network obstructed.

Bianca saw 72 messages and 109 missed calls.

'Hey? where're you?' Laura sent him a message.

'Where are you going?' Thomas asked something similar.

'Tianca? don't tell me you eloped with Daniel' This time Bianca laughed reading Thomas's message.

'Where else did you run? Papa has sent his confidants and the police to look for you' Jacob's brother also sent him a message.

'Son, my daughter where are you? let's hurry home we wait for you at home.' His mother also seemed worried about Bianca's whereabouts as if lost without news.

Bianca felt Laura's uneasiness from her messages. The girl recalled going after Daniel without planning at all. He has not been able to give news or tell his idea to his friends. Even for clothes he had to borrow and buy suddenly in the market. It was a plan to travel without any preparation at all.

'In three days, you don't go home papa will tell people to blow up Daniel's office and take him to jail.' Bianca grimaced as she read her papa's message. His attitude was never expected.

From the many messages he read, Bianca felt strange when she found one of the messages from an unknown number.

'Wait for my revenge'. Feeling that maybe the sender of the message was misconnected

Bianca ignored the message.

Bianca typed the same message for the people closest to her.

'Don't worry I'm on my way home, after vacation.'

After sending the message, Bianca put her phone in the bag. He stared at the scarf on his lap. He already had many scarves that he had bought from different stores abroad. But Sasy's scarf is special because it is made by himself and given to him. Bianca wore the scarf around her neck. He rests his head on the surface of the glass.

Bianca smiled remembering what she had been through for the past few days. Of course he learned valuable lessons during his stay at Uncle Ben's and Aunt Ye's house.

Daniel looked at Bianca from behind the rearview mirror, the girl was no longer as noisy as usual. Daniel knows that Bianca will try to figure out a way to keep Daniel from getting too close to Alicia.

However, all the way home this time Bianca just kept quiet. Daniel observes the girl busy with her cell phone and watches Sasy's scarf. After putting on the scarf even Bianca started to take a position to sleep.

'This is better.' Think Daniel.

Alicia noticed Daniel occasionally glancing towards Bianca from the steering glass above her.

Alicia opened the topic of chat, the girl planned to invite Daniel at the exhibition gallery in central Jakarta. A few weeks ago he had built a partnership with Edwin's Gallery to attract art curators. Alicia plans to establish the widest possible working connection. He aspires that his work can be known by the wider community even abroad. Alicia also yearns for a time when she has her own gallery.

While Bianca is far away anchored in her dream, Daniel agrees to come as Alicia's companion at an art exhibition later.

Silent.

There were no more conversations throughout the trip. Alicia who was too tired fell asleep following Bianca who was already sound in the dreamland.
