"Bw! Whoa-bwa! " - Say the Girl

"Sorry to bother you, my son just wants to see you" - The Man said

I'm dumbfounded, what does that mean? The man walked up to me and stood right in front of me, bringing his face close to one of my ears.

"Beware of Alvaro, he's a monster. Don't let you be the target" - Whisper

I immediately took my face away from her, why did she say that? Does he know Alvaro? I directly keep my ears away from him, who is this man?! I don't even know what his name is.

The stranger threw his smile before he left, I was still silent at the entrance until someone slapped one of my shoulders which surprised me and reflexively moved away from him. I looked at the person standing right next to me with a fearful look, I could not see any more clearly this figure before me because here the lighting was lacking.

"My daughter? Why are you here?" - Ask

From the sound of his voice, the figure standing by my side was my father. I sighed before fleeing from my father, I looked back and found my father still standing near the entrance. I ran into my room and locked the door, I adjusted my breath from running tired.

I got caught by my dad, I'm sure you're gonna nag me for coming out of the room in the middle of the night. The sound of knocking on the door made me panic, I immediately jumped on the bed and covered my entire body. I tried to ignore the sound of knocking on the door, Dad tried to meet me. I did not want to open the door because I was not ready to be scolded by my father, several times my name was called sari outside the room. I pretended not to hear the call and tried to sleep.

Soon enough, the sound of the knocking and the call disappeared and I was able to sleep quietly. The next morning, I woke up with a knock on my door. Half-conscious, I opened the door and saw an old man standing right in front of me with a gaze that seemed to be interrogating me. I was stunned and immediately lowered my gaze.

"Hurry up and get downstairs, the hope we have to talk about!" - Dad said in a high tone

"Yes, dad. I'll be ready soon" - I said

Dad immediately walked out from before me, I closed the door and let out a rough sigh. Dad gave me goosebumps, I can't argue that you've put on a scary look like that. I immediately got ready, after I finished running small downstairs. Don't forget I prepared mentally to deal with dad. Now I sit facing my father. From then on, my father just kept quiet while observing my movements, making me more creepy. I want to get out of here!

"you know, why did you call you here?" - asked Dad

"I-I know, I've made a mistake. I'm sorry" - I answered

"Now I ask you for honesty, who did you bring in last night?" - asked Dad

I was astonished by the question my father had just asked me, but I had tried to escape the reach of the CCTV and shut the guards up. Father is inevitable, because he is the master of this building. Dad was monitoring all my movements while I was in this building, which made me feel uncomfortable. I was silent, not daring to answer my father's question. If I tell you the truth, then Alvaro will be in danger.

"Well, if you don't want to answer my question, I actually know who the man you brought into the building is. I just wanted to be honest with you and tell you the reason why you brought her in, I never thought my daughter would bring a man. If you don't want to say it, I guarantee that the man's life will not calm down!" - Threaten Dad

"Dad!" - Shouted me

"Speak honestly!" - Firmly

"Do you know who Alvaro really is?" - asked Dad

The question this time made me think hard, I was reminded of Alvaro who was actually disguised as a woman named Ava. Remembering that, it pissed me off at Dad. I clenched my hands together, I stared intently at Father.

"Yes, I know who he really is! He who disguised himself as a woman named Ava, my father could lie to me!" - Shouted me

"I don't think that fast you know, I'm sorry. That I did for your safety, I had to lie to you. I thought you had a close relationship in the past. So father - " - Father's speech is cut off

"So you told him to be my bodyguard?! Didn't I tell Dad that I don't need a bodyguard! It will only put someone's life at risk, I will understand what I say, right?!" - I snapped

"Yes, I understand. But he needs money and I help him by hiring him as a bodyguard" - Dad

"If you want to help him, you can give him money without hiring him! Don't you have a lot of money?! Don't be stingy to help someone who's in trouble! Ok, fine! Is there anything else you want to talk to me about?!" - I asked in a high tone

"There's one more thing, it's about hiring Alvaro as your bodyguard" Dad replied

"Dad would have wanted to ask me, did I accept Alvaro as my bodyguard? The answer is NO!!" - I replied in a half-screaming tone

"Why not? I thought, you guys are friends" - Dad said

"That's exactly what I want, I want Alvaro as my friend! Not as a bodyguard!"

Plaque! For some reason one of my hands moved by itself and slapped both of my cheeks, my gaze started to fade and my head felt dizzy after getting a hard slap from myself.

• 5 Alvaro POV •

In my room, I was observing my laptop screen which was displaying the existence of the living room and there was Lyra and Mr. Andrian. He was trying to resuscitate Lyra who fell and was unconscious, at this time he and I were doing a video call. Mr. Andrian deliberately invited me to a video call so that I could hear the decision from Lyra directly, the decision about hiring me as a Lyra bodyguard.

"Dad thought you had a close relationship in the past - " - said Mr. Andrian Cut Off

The words that Mr. Andrian had said earlier, he did not have time to continue his words because it was first cut by Lyra. But for now, I ignored his words and focused on observing Lyra's alarming state. It was seen that Lyra was beginning to wake up and immediately sat down, her long hair covering her face.

"Damn it, he was wrong in choosing!" - Shouted Lyra

I was astonished when I saw Lyra attacking Mr. Andrian and strangling his neck with both hands, he seemed to be trying to release the grip of Lyra's increasingly strengthened hand.
