ARAKAS

Chapter 83

By noon Karrel was already at Ravel's house. Find out the latest news about Ara. The man didn't go to school. He could not focus because Ara was missing. Ravel herself had already canceled her filming these few days. Her father stays in the office, but sometimes does not focus. He doesn't know what to behave like.

The old man still blames his daughter for the passing of the wife he loves. He always remembered his late wife when he saw Ara, which is why he rarely came home and lived in his own residence. Another house he had. But yesterday, when he heard his daughter was kidnapped, the middle-aged man could not lie if in his heart there was a feeling of worry. He hopes Ara is quickly found in good condition.

At his house, Ravel, Tristan and Karrel sat down while thinking. Their minds are everywhere. Then the sound of Ravel's cell phone ringing made the three look at each other. Ravel looked at the number but what came in was an unknown new number. His forehead wrinkled. This number is very personal. Only people close to him know.

Who's calling about? The ara? Or the kidnapper's sister? Usually when in the movies when someone closest to us is kidnapped, after that will follow the call of the kidnapper, using the voice of the person they are Sandra to ask for money. Ravel grabbed the phone on the sofa table and quickly picked it up without speaking. He let the caller speak first.

"K..grandfather...?"

The voice was very recognizable to Ravel. It was the voice of someone he missed so much from last night. Brother's voice.

"Ara," his words succeeded in making Karrel and Tristan look at him without even turning away. It felt like Karrel wanted to snatch the phone from Ravel's grasp and talk to her lover, but Karrel held back. He realized he could not.

Ravel who seems to know Tristan and Karrel want to hear Ara's voice also activates the load speaker sound model. They both heard the girl explain. Every word Ara spoke made the three men dumbfounded. They realized that the case that happened to the girl was not an actual case.

Ara said she wasn't kidnapped. But helped by the son of his father's best friend. The girl had met her real father, but things were going awry so she couldn't go home. He also needed the help of his brother to deliver a necklace in a box in his room. Despite having explained at length, Ara did not say about her who turned out to have a fiancee. He didn't want Karrel to know. Surely his girlfriend will insist on meeting him if you find out. Ara did not want to put those closest to her in danger. Enough of him.

Moses has arranged everything. He promised Ara that his brother's meeting with the man would be very secret. Can't get caught by his father. Because Ravel will be carrying a very important item. No one can know.

It was almost certain that they would not meet with Ara in the near future. The girl explained. Indeed they felt a little relieved that the girl was fine, but still they wanted to see her in person. Ravel herself tried to trace the phone number Ara called her earlier, but unfortunately the number could not be traced. Ravel sighed. He could only follow what his sister had said. It seemed that Ara was indeed not threatened by someone when she spoke earlier. Ravel prayed that her sister would be safe.

"The mobster? I still can't believe Ara's real family is a mobster" Tristan said. Ravel was not surprised, from the story of her late mother, she was able to conclude that Ara's biological family was not an ordinary family. I deserved a lot of bullets yesterday.

Compared to yesterday, today the house is much cleaner although there is still something that must be changed in some damaged places to the glass.

"What are you gonna do?" asked Karrel looking at Ravel.

"We can just wait for the phone again and follow what Ara said earlier" Ravel replied.

"But we have to be very careful. The stuff you're going to bring is important" Karrel said. Hearing that Ravel immediately stood up and walked quickly into Ara's room. Important items must be secured immediately.

"You think we should tell this to the investigator?" it was Tristan's turn to speak. He and Karrel live in the living room.

Karrel looked at the man for a glance.

"It seems unnecessary. Do you remember what Ara said? Don't trust people. Not that the investigator is a criminal, but we need to make a step first." Karrel retorted. Tristan nodded in understanding. Facing a big problem like this does require wise action. They can't move around.
