For some reason there was something in Aslan that made Philip interested in him, the only glimpse he could see was a man with charisma and a handsome face.
This made Philip want to meet Aslan once more, so he told Juan to find out where Aslan was.
As soon as he heard Aslan was spending time at the bar he also invited Sally to go there, of course Sally was a little confused because Philip did not usually invite to drink outside let alone the bar.
As soon as his eyes looked at Aslan a huge question mark appeared in his head as Philip's purpose was clearly visible.
"Please two drinks" Philip asked the barista.
Aslan looked up, as soon as he saw Philip his eyes had been rounded but then displayed an indifferent attitude.
"I hear you're an architect" Philip said.
Aslan did not reply.
"Can you make me a palace? the location I'll show you if you're willing," he asked.
"What kind of palace do you want? western-style? Malay?" ask Aslan.
"Okay, I don't know for sure. What is clear is that the palace wants me to build as proof of my love like the Taj Mahal" he replied.
Hearing him, Aslan's eyes immediately turned to the woman sitting right behind Philip, as well as Sally who immediately looked at Philip's back but who found Aslan's eyes.
"Taj Mahal is not just a sign of love, but a tomb built as a dedication of a mother and wife" Aslan said.
"That's why I wanted to build it but not as a tomb" Philip said.
"We can start tomorrow, today I'm too tired."
"As far as you are" said Philip.
Aslan gulped down his drink again, as did Philip and Sally who let the sound of music fill their heads.
Aaaaa....
Suddenly the screams of the visitors were heard along with their thunderous running steps beating the music, the DJ immediately stopped the music in order to find out what was really going on.
"Come on!" let Philip know something is wrong.
Sally nodded and immediately left the place with Philip in Juan's care, while Aslan also chose to leave.
But once out a crowd of people had beaten their men to death, because the situation was getting more precarious Juan ordered Philip and Sally to come out through the back door while he would finish them off.
Lucky this time Sally put on booth shoes so she is not difficult to run, but apparently they have been surrounded.
At the back door several enemies were waiting, complete with weapons such as chains, daggers to cerulites and baseball bats.
They began to attack simultaneously which made Philip quite overwhelmed, especially Sally could not protect herself with such a large enemy.
"Philip!" sally exclaimed as she saw one enemy about to hit from behind.
Buccancy
For a moment they petrified, seeing Aslan there with a fist that made the enemy collapse. Philip smiled and they went back to fighting together.
Sally who felt a little relieved finally retreated to a safer place, but she was too careless to realize there was an enemy behind her that then hit her nape hard. The blow instantly rendered him unconscious.
......................
"Uh." he felt a still painful nape.
"Darling... Are you okay?" philip asked while helping him get up to sit down.
"Sir, I already know who is behind all the attacks that have occurred" Juan reported who entered the room.
"Who is he?" philip asked in a voice trembling with annoyance.
"Thom, Marck's sister."
It's been a long time since they've forgotten Marck's name, of course, because it's been a year.
"Does he want revenge? why is it so late?" sally asked confusedly.
"No, he's after something more important than that" Philip said.
"What?" ask Sally.
"You," he answered.
Maybe Sally is famous for her beauty and cleverness so many ignore her, but Philip knows very well Thom is after Sally not because of all that but because Sally is the key to him.
Philip had many treasures and something even more formidable, something that was a treasure he had recently obtained. Everyone wanted it to even be willing to sacrifice many lives. Knowing that all of them were after him Philip used Sally as the key to unlock the treasure.
"What should we do now?" ask Sally.
"I'll move the treasure first, while you stay here."
"What if he comes?" ask Sally again.
"Relax, I've prepared a special bodyguard for you."
Sally was curious what kind of bodyguard Philip prepared for her, but once Philip introduced that the bodyguard was Aslan her face immediately paled.
Not to delay Philip's departure with Juan, Sally who drove him until he got into the car gave a kiss on Philip's cheek and said he would wait for them to come home.
After Philip's car came out of the gate of their mansion Sally turned around and looked at Aslan, she then took him in and asked him to accompany her for a drink.
"Is the work of being an architect not promising?" ask Sally.
"Depending on how great you are" Aslan said.
"Then why do you want to be my bodyguard? I think you're pretty good, "he asked confusedly.
"I've been dragged into your problems, there's no harm if you all throw yourself in. I also have a job from your lover" he replied.
......................
Getting a room right next to Sally made Aslan unable to sleep, now he was closer to Sally and slowly began to realize that the woman was not Winnie.
Smiling bitterly he laughed at the empty hope that was quietly embedded in his heart.
Shaking Aslan's head opened the window to let the night breeze blow away the negative thoughts, but looking sideways he found Sally sitting on a swing on the balcony.
His legs that kicked back made the chair swing, creating a wind that waved his hair and nightgown.
The longer the swing got firmer, Sally smiled and began to stretch her body back until the tip of her hair touched the floor.
Enjoying the strong swings and the wind made Sally feel comfortable, her face that looks innocent without makeup with a sweet smile made Aslan's heart unsafe.
In this way Sally was completely similar to Winnie, making clear water melt on Aslan's cheeks due to such a torturous longing.
Closing the window immediately, not wanting to feel more pain, Aslan chose to go to sleep, while Sally, who heard the sound of the window on the lid, stopped the swing with her feet.
Enforcing the body he stared at the window of Aslan's room, his smile had faded replaced with a melt of tears that came out without warning.
