Between Asa And Taste

Welcome

After reassuring himself if Shelin is fine, Rian's current focus is on Riri. He tried to connect Riri but until now still ignored. In solitude Rian sat with a breeze that hit his body. The warm tea beside him slowly grew cold and was forgotten by Rian.

"Rian," call Mia.

Rian who was already very familiar with the voice immediately turned around kissing the back of mia's hand.

"Sister Mia with Brother Dion?" ask Rian.

Yes, there is still fear in Rian if he has to meet with Dion. When the news reached the ears of the family, Dion was the only person who dared to take out a spicy jata for him.

Rian realized at that time that everyone wanted to censure him. I ate it for his stupidity. But all are silent. Maybe because of his pity for seeing him who was already very hit with the decision of Shelin. But at that time Dion dared to say all his disappointments. Maybe in fact the phrase is very representative of the feelings of all the families who were disappointed by the incident.

"I myself. What are you doing?" ask Mia.

This afternoon Mia asks permission to see Rian after work. While Dion who did not want to argue with Rian chose to go home on the grounds of tired. It's okay, Mia understands Dion's feelings.

"I'm trying to contact Mpus. But there's no answer. I love Mpus very much, Brother." Rian tried to be honest about his feelings.

"It is difficult for Mpus to accept this reality. You have to try harder" said Mia.

Rian raised his face and looked at Mia fixedly. He felt his body tremble with Mia's reply. Everyone would not listen to his heart. But Mia was not just listening to him. Mia gave him motivation.

"Will Mpus take me back, brother?" ask Rian.

"We won't know the answer if we don't try" Mia replied.

"So my brother supports me?" ask Rian.

"I will only support what makes you happy. Do it! Don't be sorry about your decision this time!" answer Mia.

Rian's lips started to smile. Her face was more radiant after hearing Mia's support. He promises himself to try harder to get Riri back.

After making sure Rian was okay, Mia told him to go home. Mia had advised Rian to go home or to the house of Mr. Wira, but Rian refused. When looking at Rian's condition, Mia did not bother about Rian's rejection.

Currently living in his own rented house is the best decision. Rian needs time to be alone. Reflect on all his mistakes and think about what the next step will be like.

Today Rian was getting ready to go to the office. He looked at his face from the mirror. It looks untidy. Her hair was longer and her mustache was starting to look messy.

"This is better. Stay later I cut my hair," said Rian while holding his face that is no longer mustache and bearded.

Rian tote up his briefcase and went to the office. The employees welcomed him. This was the first day after a few days Rian did not come early in the morning.

They were happy to see Rian with his big smile as he returned their greeting. Rian warmly greeted his employees before he finally entered his room. He was quite surprised when he did not see Manto in his room. He decided to go to Danu's room, and the result was the same. Danu wasn't there either.

"Where are people at?" grunts Rian.

As Rian was about to return to his room, he met one of the employees who told him of Manto and Danu's whereabouts. Again Rian forgot that today there was a meeting that he missed.

Rian sat in his chair. He looked up at the clean white ceiling of the office. He smiled as he recalled his existence in the middle of Manto and Danu. Two people who always understood his situation. Not with himself. They always care in a way that makes them comfortable.

Not wanting to waste any time, Rian immediately did some work while waiting for Manto to come home. I can't wait to know what the results of today's meeting are.

"Sorry sir" said Manto nervously.

Not knowing that Rian was in his room, Manto entered without knocking on the door. He was surprised to see Rian focusing on his laptop.

Nervous Manto nodded and immediately sat down in his chair. Save your laptop and meeting files today. He immediately told me the good news from his meeting. Everything went well according to their expectations.

"Thank you Sir. Oh yeah, didn't they ask me?" ask Rian.

Manto smiles. There was no way they didn't ask about the owner of that company. But Manto knew what answer Rian wanted.

"Again, thank you very much, sir. It's good to know you" said Rian.

Yes, Manto is really the most appropriate person to be there. Mr. Felix also monitors Rian through Manto. Mr. Felix seemed more relaxed. But unbeknownst to Rian, his father always worried about him. Luckily Manto can provide data about the state of Rian every day.

"Sir, what if I go to Germany?" ask Rian suddenly.

Manto who was struggling again with his leptop suddenly raised his face in confusion. To Germany? Wh-wh-what for? Is it just to see Mr Felix?

"When Sir?" ask Manto. "I mean that I can adjust the schedule Mr," continued Manto who felt bad himself with his question.

"My loose schedule is roughly when?" ask Rian.

"Actually next week Mr. Felix's schedule is loose, but Mr. Felix will visit here. I don't think Mr. Rian needs to go to Germany" Manto said.

This time Manto tried to pretend not to know. Though he was sure if the purpose of Rian to Germany was to meet with his former lover, not to meet with Mr. Felix.

"Oh, is that it?" said Rian.

Yes, it was lost hope Rian when he heard Manto's answer. There was a sense of guilt when I saw Rian disappointed.

"But maybe you can contact Mr. Felix to discourage his intentions. If Mr. Rian were to go there it might be better. Mr. Felix does not need a cape to be able to meet you," Manto said with his advice.

A suggestion that would certainly be greatly hated by Mr. Felix. Because Manto knew that Mr. Felix did not want Rian to be present in Germany. It will certainly invite a lot of news that is not encouraging. But Manto could not see Rian's face being bent down in disappointment.

"alright. I'll try to contact Papa later" Rian said.

There was a hint of hope on Rian's face. And that was enough to make Manto happy. Manto. did know Rian when working in the office. But Rian's kindness and sincerity make Manto feel Rian is the best friend he has.

After work, Rian rushed home. Today he went home to Mr. Wira. He wants everything as usual. Trying to forget about the problems that have been happening to him lately. Maybe things will improve after Rian returns like he used to be.

"Bah, Ma," call Rian.

A woman in blue clothes immediately spread her wings and hugged Rian warmly.

"I'm sorry my mom was angry and disappointed. But Mama knows you have the right to make your choice. Mama knows it's heavy. But you have to be sure that you can get through all of this" Ms. Helen said.

"Thank you very much Ma for the support. I love Mama" said Rian.

While from a distance Mr. Wira only noticed Rian and Mrs Helen. His disappointment is still stored. But seeing the arrival of Rian and his tears, made Lord Wira's heart full.

Mr. Wira approached and rubbed Rian's back. Rian immediately released his embrace from Madam Helen. Now he immediately hugged Mr. Wira. Said the same thing to his foster father.

"Thank you for accepting me again in your life. I'm sorry," said Rian.

"Don't do that. Sampa anytime, you are part of this family. Welcome back Rian. Stay the Rian. Never change again" said Mr. Wira.

Rian was crying in the arms of Mr. Wira. His chest is tight, his tongue is clumsy. He could not answer Mr. Wira's words other than nodding in between his cries. He tightened his embrace.
