ARAKAS
Chapter 81



Ara was still confused. He could not accept such a sudden situation. Her real father showed up and explained everything. Starting from the girl who was left by her biological mother when she was a baby, her engagement to a more mature man named Moses, and an object left by her mother.


Clearly, Ara was confused. How not, he could indeed accept a meeting with his biological father. But that matchmaking was completely unacceptable. He didn't know the man. And he has Karrel as his lover. Where could he have betrayed Karrel. In the room was also a middle-aged man whose age might be the same as his real father. Who else is that?


"He's my father" Moses said as if knowing the meaning of Ara's gaze on his father. Ara just understood. Mr. Ruff introduced himself. Compared to the old man who is known as his real father, Mr. Ruff looks more terrible. Well, his face was not like someone approachable. The old man looked so dignified. His father also, but still often smiles while talking.


Moses realizes the girl below him seems not so used to it. He wanted to find a way to get the two old men out of his room but they kept talking to Ara. Moses also felt dislike for the two old men who immediately asked for relics of his mother Ara. Jesus, that girl was still in shock. Not to mention he had to accept the fact of knowing a stranger who had suddenly become his biological father. Can't it later?


Moses initially did not care about Ara. He was one of the men who once thought that girl would only be a burden to him. However, his heart slowly began to fill up when he saw Ara up close. His sinless face, his cheerfulness etched clearly on that innocent face this afternoon, and knowing that the girl was not one hundred percent dear to his biological father, Moses was unhappy. Which father tried was more concerned with items he thought were more valuable than his own daughter. Not necessarily that thing was with Ara. The man's own father was the same. Ara was really used by both of them. I don't know why Moses wanted to protect the girl.


"Ara, did your mama give you a relic? A necklace of tubes." this time it was Moses' father's turn to ask. Ara shakes. She remembers a necklace she had been wearing since she was a child. Whether it's a relic from his biological mother or the gift of his adoptive mother.  Now the necklace was stored in a box along with her other jewelry in the room. He lied and said he did not know about the object asked by the two old men because he felt strange. Why are they suddenly asking for her necklace? There must be something behind their question. What's with that necklace? Is the necklace important? What is certain is that Ara will not tell you first that the necklace is indeed on him. He doesn't trust them one hundred percent.


"How about you move to papa's house now." bargained his father.


"No, let him be here. I promise I'll take good care of it. You have a lot of work yourself, right? Maybe there's no time with him. At least here I am."sela Moses. She was afraid that Ara would feel lonely in her father's house. Not that in this house the girl will not feel lonely, but Moses can continue to see her and ensure her safety, also accompany her so that she does not feel alone. She will miss the family who raised her. Seeing her cheerful nature, it was impossible for Ara to be unhappy living with her adoptive family.


Mr. Furon stared at Moses for a moment and then looked at his best friend, his father Moses, then took a slow breath.


"All right then. Don't forget to let me know if there's any news." said Mr. Furon then glanced at Ara.


"Ara, tomorrow I'll change your last name to mine. You were born a big miss in the Furon family. My only daughter. I hope you can start accepting it." said Mr. Furon. Ara who heard him was silent. He can't think right. Everything came too suddenly.


Moses closes the room and then turns to approach the girl who now continues to look at him without a smile. Moses knew the gaze was unfriendly. The girl looked like she was hostile to him. He grinned and sat back on the bedside chair, staring back at Ara.


"Why stare at that? Is there something on my face?" said intentionally.


"I want to go home" said Ara, not softly. She was sure her brother, Karrel, and the others were definitely looking for her.


"Can't right now, you know there's a lot of enemies out there chasing you, right?" reply the man. Ara gave a rough sigh. He doesn't care. Anyway, he should go home now. He was happier at home with his brother. Although Ravel and her father are not her biological family, she feels more secure with them. His biological father who came earlier, was too foreign to him. He's not used to it.


"I don't care. Take me now." Ara wanted to get out of bed but Moses held her back again.


"Please stay here if you want to be safe" he said. Ara glared sharply at him.


"Take me off, I don't want to be here. I want to go home now!" peekik Ara was angry. He began attacking Moses who was holding him blindly, clawing and doing anything until the man felt overwhelmed. Moses pushes Ara's body into the bed and supports her with both hands until the girl can no longer fight.


"Hear first!" his army restrains emotions. It turned out that his fiancee was difficult to deal with as well. Ara fell silent but continued to stare at the man boldly.


"There are a lot of people out there looking for you right now. If you go home now, it's not just your life that's in danger. Your family and those closest to you, too. Maybe you can't accept it, but I have to say this one thing, you were born into a mafia family. In fact, even if the family that raised you is powerful enough, they won't be able to fight the enemy that's after you. You remember the thing your father asked you to do?" Ara kept listening to Moses. He was curious too. So he was born into a mafia family? He continued to see Moses again continue to talk.


"In that object there is an important map and the key to open a place that contains a myriad of marijuana and gold. Your mama ran away with you years ago. No one knows where the warehouse is. They need a key and a map that your mama took away. That's why you're being targeted. And whoever gets the map will be the most powerful. Our families both worked together to get it, that's why you and I were betrothed." Moses explained at length. That word made Ara dumbfounded. He did not imagine himself to be involved with such a big problem.
