Mama Yunita called the princess who never came out of her room. She's worried Melin will actually go on strike, as she spoke a few days ago. Because he was still afraid of being on the streets because of the incident that night.
When the mother arrived, apparently Melin was still sitting and daydreaming in front of her dressing table. Then mama Yunita gently massaged her shoulders.
"Papa's waiting downstairs for breakfast. Come down...!" she gently.
"Maa..., can't I just homeschool?" sahut Melin's.
"Darling.., listen to mom. There's nothing you need to fear anymore. Now we go down, have breakfast, and then go to school. Bodyguard for you is also waiting in front" he said.
"Is he reliable?" murmured Melin who was still hesitating.
"Very can! He's the only one who passed the selection." mama Yunita replied.
With a lazy step Melin down the stairs to get to the dining room. They eat quietly.
Soon they both came out to escort Melin to the door.
The...!!
Melin was shocked when she saw the figure standing next to her car. Although she turned her back on Melin, Melin recognized her very much.
"Be careful with my daughter. Take good care of him!" said papa Adi with a firm tone.
"Good, sir!" reply Reihan is no less firm.
"Pa, ma...?!" murmured Melin while looking at her two parents alternately.
"He's the one you were talking about." whispered mama Yunita.
"Papa just believes in Reihan. You don't mind, do you?" papa Adi looked into Melin's eyes in search of answers.
Melin was silent. He really didn't know what to react to. After saying goodbye they both casually glided towards school.
While on the way, Melin receives a message from her mother.
The bodyguard is handsome, right...???!😉
Melin glanced for a moment at Reihan who was focusing on driving. Then focus back to the front.
"What's up?" reihan asked without looking towards Melin who was sitting next to him.
"Nothing" Melin replied.
"not comfortable?" ask Reihan again. Melin shook her head.
Shortly after, their car entered the parking lot. However they did not go down directly, thus attracting the attention of some students who were there.
"Nothing will happen. Come outside!" bring Reihan.
Melin took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly.
"Call me whenever you need. Now I'm your job." said Reihan.
"Then, what am I going to tell them?" Melin looked at her friends whispering to each other out there.
"Say what it is. Nothing to cover." Reihan opened the door.
Melin did the same. To his surprise, Reihan helped him open the door wider. Makes her a little misbehaved, and feel bad.
"Seriously they're together?"
"One Reihan can date as well, guys...! Sesweet it try...!!"
"Lucky Melin...!!!"
......................
Sasha ran to Melin's bench, when she got to class. All along the corridor he heard all about Reihan and Melin. Some even asked Sasha the truth.
"You guys made up?!" ask Sasha.
"No." Melin replied.
"Then...?!" ask Sasha again.
"He's working with papa." Melin replied.
"So supri, is that...?!" sahut Sasha's.
"Supri?" Melin narrowed her eyes.
"Private driver, Meliiin...!!!" he said a little bit anxious because Melin did not understand the language.
"More precisely bodyguard."
"What?!!" Sasha's getting excited. "Can you?!!!"
"I mean, I can." That's Melin's only answer. He didn't want to reveal the reason behind it all.
During the break, Melin chose to stay in her class. He doesn't want to go anywhere.
Because of his absence in the cafeteria at that time, Reihan began to worry.
Whereabouts?
_
Class
_
Already eaten?
_
Not hungry
_
Reihan got out of his chair, pocketing his phone.
"Where are you going?" ask Nathan.
"Stay." she replied.
"Melin' at the very least." replied Gina.
"They're really made up?" Nathan looked at Gina.
"Eitherway. I haven't asked Melin directly" she said. "Do you mind if they're together?" ask Gina later.
"No." Nathan replied briefly. "Just don't believe it, a Nathan first a stiff boy like Reihan." Nathan looked grimaced, then shook his head.
On the other side...
Reihan has arrived in front of Melin's class. Before entering he made sure his new lady was in there.
"Sister Rei." said a friend of Melin's.
Reihan only slightly nodded to reply. He then sat down on the bench that was in front of Melin. So that made Melin surprised, then raised her head which was when she leaned on the table.
"Sister.." he said softly.
"Eat." Reihan put the fried rice and a bottle of mineral water on the table.
"I'm not hungry" he said.
Reihan doesn't care. He opened the lunchbox and tried to feed Melin.
"Eat alone or am I the bribe?"
Melin looked around, apparently some of her friends were watching. He took a spoon from Reihan's hand.
"Don't go hungry, or your parents will scold me" Reihan said as he opened the bottle.
"How does he know my porch, and all its toppings?" inner Melin.
"I have to go. Spend, no leftovers!" so message Reihan before he leaves.
"Thanks." Melin replied.
There was no reply from Reihan, he just passed from before Melin.
......................
"Ciieeeh., who is again being escorted." whispered Sasha as she saw Reihan was waiting under the stairs.
Melin did not respond at all.
"Why is Melin so weird? Not as fun as you used to be." Sasha's inner.
"Sir Rei.." said Sasha.
"Mel, I'm first. Bye.." pamitnya then.
"Be careful.." Melin replied.
"Where are you going?" ask Reihan.
"Go home." Melin replied.
They also walked towards the car park.
"Wanna come by for a cake?" reihan asked as the two were already in the car.
"Other times." he replied.
Without asking much more Reihan immediately drove the car to Melin's house.
"Sir Rei still works at that store?" melin asked as their car passed by the store.
"still. After driving you home, I'll be back to work." Reihan replied.
"Not tired?" melin asked while changing her sitting position so she could see Reihan.
"Think I don't know that word." Reihan smiled faintly.
"Does papa force you to do this job?" Melin asked again.
"No. Mr. Adi just offered, and I accepted it. Because I also need extra money" he said honestly.
"Ooh..."
After hearing Reihan's explanation, Melin returned to her original position.
"I promise it won't be a hassle, brother... Thanks for accepting papa's offer. Because I feel safer when my brother is around me. As it is now."
"But if you suddenly want to leave, you can call. Bi Ismi also knew about my new job. And he understands it very well." he said. Melin just nodded.
Shortly after, they arrived home. After that Reihan immediately said goodbye to go to the cake shop owned by Aunt Ismi.
"How do you feel, baby?" ask mama Yunita.
"Well, ma." he replied.
"Ma, how could papa suddenly give that job to Brother Rei?" ask Melin.
"Because papa believes Reihan can protect you" he replied.
"Sir Rei also works at the cake shop, he must be a hassle" Melin said.
"But Reihan said that he could do it." his mother replied. "His team rarely goes too. So there won't be any problems."
