DARREN'S HATRED

Talia's Change of Attitude

This is where Darren and his seven best friends and their lovers are. On the outskirts of the city streets.

Darren, his seven best friends and his lovers are handing out groceries to underprivileged citizens. Both Darren, his seven best friends and Brenda and his seven best friends gave each of them two souvenir parcels to one family head.

"Papa" said Darren.

Darren wept when he saw his seven best friends, his lover and the lovers of his friends who gave away groceries to the poor while asking for a prayer which was intended for his father.

"Father! I hope Papa's okay there. Hurry back," Darren's inner.

Brenda who was finished with her activities accidentally saw Darren who was in a state of crying.

Brenda immediately approached Darren and immediately Brenda gave a warm hug to her lover.

Instantly Darren's sobs broke in Brenda's arms. He is completely destroyed at the moment. Until now, he has not received news about his father's condition.

While Brenda who heard the sobs of Darren felt tightness in her chest. He understood what his lover felt because he had once felt the loss of a father.

"Brend. I miss my Papa" isak Darren.

"I know that. You have patience, okay! I'm sure Uncle Erland is fine. And I'm even more certain that Uncle Erland will return. Back in your arms, his beloved son."

Brenda spoke so softly with her hands rubbing Darren's trembling back.

While on the other hand, in the same location where his seven best friends and seven best friends Brenda cried when she heard the expression of Darren's longing for her father.

After feeling Darren who had calmed down. Brenda let go of his embrace. After that, Brenda looked at the handsome face of her lover.

"Do you still want to continue? Or us....."

"I'm still strong. We're going straight to the orphanage."

"All right."

After which, Darren and the others immediately left the location to head for the orphanage. There are four orphanages that Darren, Brenda and her friends will attend.

While for Bruiser members are told to return to headquarters after they finish doing their duties.

Ziggy, Noe, Devian, Enzo and Chico are already in Dominic's family residence.

His fifth arrival was very well received by David and his family. Dominic's residence also includes Aldez, Dellano, Valeo, Eric, Hendy, and Dario and his family members.

"What's the next plan, Ziggy boy?" ask Valeo.

"What are you going to do after you get word of the crash site of the plane Erland was on?" ask Dario.

"Me, Noe, Chico, Enzo and Devian have discussed this issue together. So, we decided to send each of our three right hands along with thirty members of our mafioso to the crash site of the plane boarded by Erland's uncle" said Ziggy.

"They're on location. They'll be checking the crash site. As well as looking for the whereabouts of Uncle Erland and other passengers," said Devian.

"They'll share their duties there" Enzo said.

"While we're here, we're monitoring them with the tools we've prepared when they get there" Noe said.

Hearing the words from Ziggy, Devian, Enzo and Noe made Aldez, David, Dellano, Valeo, Eric, Hendy and Dario smile with relief.

"Do we need to tell the Smith family?" ask Hendy.

"Don't you, Uncle!" prevent Chico.

"It's good, we find out first about the condition of the forest and the condition of all passengers, especially Uncle Erland. We don't know what will happen to the right hand and the members of our mafioso when they are doing their duty." Chico answered Hendy's question.

"That's exactly what Chico said. If we tell the Smiths or Darren's family straight away. His fear will make them fall back. They all must have been very happy when they heard the news about the discovery of the plane that Erland boarded." Chico.

"However, if our efforts fail to find Uncle Erland's whereabouts. Or just assume Uncle Erland didn't survive. Just imagine what would happen to all the members of the Smith family, especially Darren. Darren was the first person who would not be able to accept the reality. Darren only has Uncle Erland, although he still has Aunt Agneta." Chico continued his words.

Hearing the words and explanations from Chico made Aldez, David, Dellano, Valeo, Hendy, Dario and the wives nodded in agreement. They all confirmed what Chico had said.

"alright. We'll keep it a secret from the Smiths" Dario said.

"Nothing of this matter should leak in the ears of all Smith family members. If only one knows, it will be easily spread to other family members," said Noe.

"Oh yes! Find out also who is the right hand of Darren, Qenan, Willy, Axel, Dylan, Jerry, Rehan and Darel" proposed Devian.

"They have the same right hand" Enzo said.

"And for this matter it is also good that Qenan, Willy, Axel Dylan, Jerry, Rehan and Darel do not need to know. They're close to Darren. Fear what we say, what will be delivered by their right hand ends up in Darren's ear. Even if we talk about this matter to them and ask them to keep it a secret from Darren. Later if Darren finds out by himself. It will backfire on them. Darren would think if they deliberately lied to him and ended up they would fight." Ziggy explains what he thinks about Darren's sensitive nature of not liking being lied to.

Hearing the explanation from Ziggy made them all nod their heads in agreement. They also did not want Darren and his seven best friends to fight over this matter.

In the Norin family residence, there were so many people that two families were gathering. The two families are the Norin family and the Aldama family.

The two families already knew what Talia was going through, because Talia had already told what she had experienced when she met Davin at a famous cafe in Germany.

"But didn't expect Davin to have known our lies all along."

"Mommy especially. Mami thinks Davin only knows that Talia betrayed him. Turns out Davin also knows the rottenness of us all."

"It's a shame to ensnare Davin back and bring him into our family" said the younger sister of his mother Talia.

"Keep what should we do now?" ask the sister-in-law of Talia's father.

"Whatever happens. Even if Davin refuses me. I'll keep chasing him. I didn't love Davin. But now I really love her" Talia said with confidence.

Hearing the words from Talia made all the members of her family shocked.

"Talia, you....."

"Yes, Mommy! Talia really loves Davin. Talia also does not know what has happened to Talia. But Talia could have sworn that Talia really loved Davin."

"Is it because Davin's the son of the Smith family?" ask the father.

"Even once Davin wasn't the son of the Smiths. Talia really loves Davin, Papi!"

Talia looked at the faces of her entire family. And so did his family members who were also staring at him.

"Baby, Mami. It's time we stopped trying to fool everyone. It has been enough for us all this time to eat with the results of deceiving people. Talia really doesn't want to live like this forever. Talia wants to have a husband who loves Talia. So does Talia who loves Talia's husband sincerely."

"But if Papi, Mami and all of you stick to your decision. And you stick with your work. That's your business. Talia will not interfere. But Talia really wanted to stop. Talia wants to be a good girl."

"If you change. But the result remains the same, Davin still rejects you. What are you gonna do, Talia?" ask Talia's cousin from her father's side.

"If it happens. Talia. Talia won't force Davin again. And Talia won't bother Davin anymore. Davin deserves to be happy with another girl. Most importantly Talia's intention was sincere to change. No kidding."

After saying that, Talia left her family members to head to her room on the second floor.
