Cring kring....
Daniel's HP voice sounded. Daniel saw the incoming call from whom.
"Why did Ryan call? Is there still a problem" Daniel guessed.
"Hello Ryan" said Daniel.
"Yes Daniel" said Ryana.
"Ryan what's wrong?" ask Daniel.
"Daniel I want to ask you something" Ryan said.
"What do you want to ask me" said Daniel.
"When you're in the parking lot or heading to the parking lot do you see Rio, my son?" ask Ryan to the point.
"Rio's? I didn't see him. What's wrong with Rio?" ask Daniel back.
"Rio my son disappeared and headed towards the car park. We've searched everywhere but didn't find him. So you really don't see Rio."
"Yes Ryan. I didn't see him at all. Why would I lie to you. After you came out of your room, I went straight home" Daniel said.
"All right then. Thank you for the time."
Daniel stared at HP for a moment. Now Daniel felt something was strange.
"Why could Rio disappear in the parking lot. Maybe he's following me. I better check it out soon. If he's here, he's with Dilla."
Daniel immediately ran to Sam's room. Daniel believes that if Rio is indeed following him, it must be Rio's goal to look for Dilla.
***
Daniel opened Sam's door quickly. Daniel was shocked to see Rio was indeed there.
"Mr Daniel," said Dilla.
"What's the matter, sir, here?" ask Dilla.
Daniel walked into the room and looked at Rio ignoring Dilla.
"How did you get here?" ask Daniel.
Dilla looked towards Rio. Dilla was too happy if Rio was there so Dilla did not think about how Rio could be there. Dilla was also curious how Rio could be there.
Rio was staring at Daniel innocently.
"Rio dear, how can Rio be here dear?" dilla asked with both shoulders held Rio.
"Adi Liyoo it's kama om tu Omy," Rio said by pointing towards Daniel.
"How did you get in the car. I didn't see you in the car?"
"Liyo tan spun Om. Adi caat om nepon, Liyo diyam-diyam macuk te car. Telus telus Liyo lodge in the trunk of Om. Om tan ndak liyat Liyo, fire Liyo liyat Om bring a car. Telus telus telus telus, Om tulun gap, Liyo uga tulun dong. Telus Liyo cali Omy. Talena Liyo ship, Liyo four matan tuwe wenak. Abis matan tuwe balu Liyo cali Omy agi," Rio's story is complete.
'So Rio was the one who made a scene in the kitchen. Thankfully, there are no ghosts. Especially in broad daylight.'
Dilla had seen and heard some helpers working in the kitchen again excited to tell about the ghost who spent the cake. Although there are some other officials who do not believe in the two people who make the cake.
Daniel patted his cheek that felt awkward.
'Fortunately, Rio came along. If Ryan had been there, everything would have gone bad.
"How do you know if Dilla's here?" ask Daniel again.
"Tan adi Om atuhin capu telbang."
"Flying broom?" ask Dilla and Daniel.
"Yes, capu telbang, capu pangan atuh tan telbang," Rio said.
"...."
Dilla and Daniel are both no comments.
"Telus dali capu telbang tu Liyo ciyum no smell of Omy. Adi Liyo itutin deh," Rio said casually.
Dilla felt like she was fainting. Dilla was able to think of Rio's recklessness.
Daniel also did not expect that from the handkerchief given by Dilla to be a clue for Rio.
'Ryan, it looks like you have to learn from your son. Your little one found Dilla first. But you don't be as smart as Rio too, there you also found us.'
"So sir, what now?" ask Dilla.
Dilla was afraid that Daniel would get angry and do nothing to Rio.
"Rio is here, you better take a shower. After that, you will go to my office. There's something I want to talk to you about" Daniel said.
"Okay sir" said Dilla.
Daniel's getting out of there. Daniel's headed to the study.
***
Daniel is in the chair. Daniel opened a drawer. Daniel took a photo of Bella that he had kept since he was in college.
"Bella, do you want to accept me? Now that I have decided, I want to fight for you. Maybe it's too late, but I hope you'll still give me a chance. When my parents threatened you, I really didn't know anything about it. I hope you'll forgive me."
The sound of the door being knocked.
"Sir."
"Yes Dilla. Come in, please" tell Daniel.
Dilla went into Daniel's room.
"Sir, what would you like to talk to Dilla about?" ask Dilla curiously.
"What about Sam and Rio?" ask Daniel about the stale
"Sam and Rio are currently having lunch Sir. It was fortunate that Dilla had managed to persuade Rio to stay with Sam. Rio likes to stick to Dilla, sir."
Daniel nodded his head with his index finger tapping on the table. Daniel did not know where to start the conversation.
"Mr Daniel," call Dilla who sees Daniel pensive.
"Ah yes."
"So what do you want to talk to Dilla about?" ask Dilla again.
"Uhuk," Daniel pretended to cough.
"So I've thought about the offer you gave."
"So how did you decide, sir" asked Dilla to be ordinary.
But it was different in Dilla's heart. Dilla was anxious with Daniel's answer. If that doesn't work, then Dilla doesn't know how to persuade Daniel anymore.
"I've decided that…."
Daniel paused his words waiting for Dilla's reaction. Dilla looked at Daniel with big eyes like a cat asking for a fish.
"Ohuk…."
Daniel again pretended to cough to focus on what he said later.
"So I've decided, if I want to see Bella."
"Right sir," cut Dilla off with a reflex.
"Sorry Mr. Daniel" said Dilla in embarrassment.
Daniel nodded his head not to question Dilla's attitude.
"What you heard earlier is true."
"But why did you decide so quickly?" ask the astonished Dilla.
Daniel took a breath.
"So I was hesitant to make a decision. But since your son is Rio, that's why I want to quickly settle this matter."
"I mean Sir?" dilla asked not to understand.
"Originally you know, Ryan is currently looking for you. Now coupled with Rio who also disappeared, so I'm sure if Ryan more and more people to look for you. So I want you to come back quickly" Daniel said.
Dilla is moved by Ryan who is looking for her wholeheartedly.
"So how's your next move on Bella?" ask Daniel.
"Dilla suggests that you see Bella immediately. Sir and Bella are both adults, so it's definitely easier to talk" Dilla suggested.
"Meeting directly? But then what should I tell Bella?"
"Yes, just explain what really happened. That Master has absolutely no idea about what both of Master's parents did."
"Alright, I'll see Bella. But you also come with me to help me."
"I'm with you too?" tanya Dilla made sure again.
"Yes, you come with me. If the matter is resolved soon, I promise I'll take you home soon" Daniel said.
"Good Sir. Dilla will help Mister" said Dilla with enthusiasm.
"Keep Master, what about your parents?"
Daniel really doesn't remember both of his parents.
"Sure, both of your parents don't like Bella."
"Later my parents' business, let me take care of myself if Bella and I can be together."
"Good sir."
"Then tomorrow morning we leave for Bella's place. The sooner this matter is solved, the sooner you'll be home."
"Yes, sir" said Dilla.
Dilla's out of Daniel's study.
