Between Asa And Taste

The cape?

"Om from where?" asked Naura annoyed.

Rian was puzzled as he was greeted by Naura with a pouting face. He remembered what promise he had ignored to Naura.

"What time is this?" ask Naura again.

Rian only realized his biggest mistake was to come home late and not tell Naura. Among others, Naura was the one who was most protective of him. Although still a child, but sometimes Rian feels Naura's attitude is a mother's concern for children.

"It's work, '" Rian replied as he rubbed the little boy's head.

"Mama and Papa have gone home first" Naura said, rejecting Rian's hand that touched her head.

"Naura, om sorry yes. But try to get home sooner tomorrow. How was her birthday party?" asked Rian who was trying to shift the conversation.

"No need for a kettle," Naura replied as she ran towards her room.

Naura's attitude that slammed the door of the room violently stole the attention of the house people. No exception to Mia.

"Naura," call Mia.

"Sister, no!" said Rian pulling Mia's hand while shaking his head.

Mia does not like Naura's attitude which she thinks is outrageous. Rian also explained that what Naura did was only because she was not used to this situation.

"You don't spoil Naura too much" said Dion, who suddenly approached them.

"Yes. Rian always makes Naura number one. That's why when he's numbered he'll feel excited himself" said Mia.

Rian did not dodge. He only apologized because everything Dion and Mia alleged was true.

"You just rest. Let Mia take care of me" said Dion.

Rian nodded and nodded. He went into his room and cleaned his sticky body. He shook his head and tried to calm himself.

Not used to the new conditions, not only Naura even he himself felt a very drastic change. As of today, he did not even contact Riri. Though usually every hour he checks his phone to see a reply from Riri.

Hearing the loud ringing of the phone, Rian immediately finished his bath. He thought it was Riri. It would be disappointing not to answer the message.

"Yaaaah, late." Rian's hand grabbed his phone on the nightstand, while the other hand rubbed his head with a towel.

Rian scrunched his forehead when he saw the call was not from Riri. Mr. Felix, his adoptive father is now in Germany. In order to ascertain what Mr. Felix would say, Rian called Mr. Felix back.

"Where have you been, Mr Rian?" ask Mr. Felix.

"Sorry Sir. I'm very busy trying to keep up with your wonderful man" replied Rian.

Rian's reply made Mr. Felix chuckle. He already knew this sentence he would hear from Rian's mouth. But he also convinced Rian that Hermanto was the most appropriate person in his office.

"Yes, yeah. Papa's choice was not wrong. I was wrong because I thought I was the most deft person" said Rian.

Just one minute the call with Mr. Felix ended, another call came back into his phone. Riri's name made Rian smile widely.

"Mas cape huh?" ask Riri suddenly.

"Cape?" Rian asked back.

"Today I started work, right? The spirit of Mas. I'm sure Mas will succeed quickly," said Riri.

Work? Riri knows that it's her first day of work. Though he himself did not tell Riri this matter. Between wondering who the informant was and feeling guilty for not informing Riri, Rian just kept quiet. He was confused by the answer that had to be said for Riri.

"Yes. I-I'm sorry I didn't tell you today" said Rian nervously.

"It's okay, relax. Papa told me everything. How's Mr Hermanto?" ask Riri.

"Huh?" rian asked confusedly.

Yes, obviously he was confused because Riri claimed to get the information from Papa. He even knew about Manto, his co-worker. How can Mr. Felix tell Riri everything, while Mr. Felix does not have Riri's number.

"Papa met me at college" said Riri.

Rian was increasingly surprised to hear Riri's confession. Meet Riri at college? Mr Felix? Wh-wh-what for?

"I'm sorry if what Papa did made you uncomfortable. I didn't know Papa was meeting you at college. Really," said Rian.

Riri laughed at Rian's worries. He was not bothered at all with the arrival of Mr. Felix. He was actually happy because he finally could know the state of Rian without any unclear guesses.

Rian is grateful when Riri is not disturbed and comfortable with the presence of Mr. Felix to the campus to meet him. Actually Mr. Felix also deliberately met Riri on campus because he wanted Hiro to see it.

Mr. Felix hoped that Hiro would stay away from him. His arrival to the campus to meet Riri will certainly strengthen the relationship between Riri and Rian. Hiro is Hiro. The real revenge knows nothing.

Unfortunately, Hiro's misunderstanding is exploited by Maudi. Lately, Maudi has complained about things that Rian did not do at all. The goal is only to make Hiro get closer to Riri so that his relationship with Rian soon run aground.

As was Rian's meeting with Shelin this morning. Maudi who continues to lurk Rian, managed to capture images that certainly can make Riri misunderstand. Lucky today Mr. Felix met him. Riri who accidentally told Mr. Felix, got a long explanation.

Yes, now Riri realized that there was someone who was deliberately monitoring them both. Laliu tried to complain about it. The goal is of course so that quarrels for the sake of quarrels continue to occur and make the relationship disband as soon as possible.

Riri is now trying to follow what Mr. Felix said. He will just mute and delete messages from new numbers that often enter his phone. Their suspicions are the same. Directing to Hiro. There was no way anyone would know Riri's number just like that.

"Is the possibility only Hiro?" ask Riri.

Although all the evidence points to Hiro, Riri sees Hiro's good side. There is little hope that proves that Hiro's book is the one.

"He looks good. But like two different sides of a currency, Hiro has a side we can't guess." It was that speech that made Riri nod in agreement.

All this time the man who approached him was Hiro. It was never rude or make him suspicious, but if not him who else. There was no one else that Riri and Mr. Felix could suspect.

Both Riri and Rian were just trying to hold back on the suspicions that always upset and angered him. Riri's jealousy was burning as photos of Rian with other women came into his phone. Vice versa. But the two tried not to discuss it so as not to trigger a debate.
