A funeral home is rented specifically. Not only for Prambodo aka papa Cassandra, but also for 5 construction workers who died on the same day.
One of them had been in a coma for several hours in the hospital and died. The total death toll was 6.
Dressed in black clothes and matching lace scarves, Cassandra gathered near her papa coffin. Pras tried to sweep him away when more and more mourners came and took pictures with mobile phone cameras without being warned again.
"We should move back" whispered Cassandra, who was initially a bit of a fight as Pras led her away.
Pras thought long about this because he knew what it was like to be highlighted by the media and his face was everywhere without being able to control it. Feels annoying. He had felt when present at the mayor's party with his father and tomorrow there was a news headline about him with a thick printed writing: Prospective Heir of Pragu Group.
The news was only a glimpse of traffic. People forget tomorrow too. The audience of business news is also not that broad. But it still feels upsetting when the alma mater of the school and the campus is kidnapped. Sometimes personal life is carried away.
Pras sometimes do not understand how Hugo with his band name as big as now can be so far reported strangely out there. Even now Hugo is also dizzy because of the case of driving while his drunkenness is in the news.
"Many cameras. Unless you're not photographed. So you want to stay here?" whispered Pras again.
Cassandra immediately shook her head and went along without asking where Pras was leading her away. They obviously get out of the crowd.
Don't be asked how much of this news is out there about this incident. Pragu Group is also considered lali. Though actually the negligent is the second party aka the field responsibility. His name is also news. Can be made in such a way by business competitors to drop.
Tqk is only Pras, but Arik Gudono is very concerned about the privacy of Cassandra. He won't let a camera shine on him. He will not let any media mention the name Cassandra, even if it is just his initials. Arik who knows and some friends are familiar with the owners of large media can certainly do it.
The long-haired man became the busiest man since yesterday's incident.
Arik automatically takes over 100% of Pragu's affairs. He was also asked by the police about chronology. He also held a press conference for this incident so that the news is not confusing everywhere.
Now the man is seen taking care of the funeral and going to the families of the victims one by one. Indeed, representing Pragu Group as well as personally, Arik is very responsible and serious.
That is why among the 5 victims besides Prambodo, their families have no voice in the media. They said they knew Arik would be responsible for the deaths of the 6 dead heads of the family.
Arik has arranged a special meeting to make a pact that will bear the children and heirs of the victims from the cost of living to the school until their children go to college.
Arik Gudono guarantees seriously even though he knows how much he is willing to do will not bring back the lives of their loved ones. At least that's the best thing he can do.
The father and son pair met eyes and nodded at each other. It's like coding them if they're sharing a task.
Arik takes care of the incident along with the company's affairs. Pras takes care of Cassandra and makes sure she is as safe as he promised the late Prambodo.
Pras approached Cassandra, who he had now managed to take away to a special room. Cassandra sat in the corner of the room in a crunching position.
There were only the two of them in this quiet room.
"About half an hour all the bodies including your father will be sent to the cemetery. I'll accompany you to..."
"No need," Cassandra cut quickly without looking at Pras.
Silent PRAS. He said nothing but his body he brought closer and sat beside the grieving girl.
"If you're afraid of getting caught by reporters, we can sneak into the car that's gonna be dead by now. Journalists can't get into funerals. They only got outside because my papa closed the access." Prejudice thinks Cassandra is only reluctant to be highlighted by the camera.
Cassandra kept shaking.
Pras nodded.
Yes, he knew Cassandra's decision was made on her own consciousness. Rather than forcing it to come and just troublesome from fainting or crying too hysterically.
At least Cassandra knew the limits of her abilities. He knows he can't stand it and it's better to curl up here. After all who could be that loud anyway see the coffin containing the corpse of your biological father slowly landfilled?
Pras was busy with his cell phone then looked at Cassandra again and said softly, "They say ten minutes more sterile room of mourners. The victim's family. You want to go out and see your papa one last time before the coffin closes?"
Cassandra bowed and nodded with her face firmly.
"Pras, please promise me to drag me here again if I cry like crazy again. Just yesterday I did it in the ambulance" Cassandra said.
Pras tried to smile and pat Cassandra on the shoulder.
Really, it used to be that Cassandra would slap or even punch anyone who touched her that way. I don't know since when he felt Pras could touch him like this. Cassandra seemed to have been unconscious since when.

Arik Gudono was too busy taking care of this and that until he realized too late that Mayasa was present at the funeral home.
The woman he had once sworn to stay away from Pras faced him with a slight bow.
"Why did you come here? Your own condition is not good either." Arik Gudono said quietly while walking aside to a quiet corner. He deliberately walked in that direction to herd Mayasa also from the crowd.
Mayasa just bowed. Arik Gudono always felt awkward after he knew Mayasa had a relationship with Pras. So even now in this situation, it feels even more awkward.
"Sa-I just want to see Mr. Prambodo for the last time. He is very important to me, however. In his last moments we were together, talking a lot. And whether we don't know who will survive or die, we're still holding on tight. Of course I have to come today."
Mayasa's words were not responded to by Arik. The eccentric man who now wears a deep black shirt only glances at the direction of the infusion marks on Mayasa's hands that look new, as well as scratches of wounds that have not been completely dry on the cheeks, forehead, and face, the neck side is also the arm.
Mayasa was lucky to have only minor injuries. Yes, even if the trauma is worse than it looks.
"In a moment all the mourners in the funeral home went away. Only the families of the victims are allowed here to prepare for the funeral.
If you want to see Pram, hurry up and leave. Cassandra, who is more entitled to her papa, feels like she needs privacy. You know, right?" Arik said as he glanced towards the coffin area which was gradually getting away from his people because the officer was directed to come out.
Mayasa naturally nodded without saying much. Until finally he could not speak again when he saw Cassandra coming out of a door with tears streaming down. And guess who's with him.
Pras Obvious.
Pras not only supports. He embraced and spoke softly. His eyes also did not look at Cassandra attentively.
Whose heart is not jealous? Mayasa stared pushyly at Cassandra with Arik Gudono glancing at her sharply.
Arik. "May, you know all this time I've been defending you in the office because of who? Prambodo. I can get rid of you at any time until you tease Pras again. Especially to Cassandra. He's my son now. Not just a daughter-in-law. I'll look after him like I'm guarding Pras!"
Jem!
