"Aren't you still in the room? Let's play again like before." there was a man's voice in his brother's room.
Ericka was curious, but she had to be patient and wanted to hear what they wanted to say next. He heard Rendy's breath.
"I want to, but things can't make me do much." said Rendy.
"Haha! Don't get discouraged, bro! If there is a will there must be a way. Let's get well soon, don't you miss hanging out again with the kids?!" say that guy again.
"I want to, bro! But you know myself I'm so busy, so much work needs to be done. I don't want to burden my brother in completing all the company affairs of my father and mother" said Rendy again.
"Oh, your brother is smart he can certainly do anything, besides your sister can also work too.. Cook your youth should be spent working continuously, no entertainment playing with friends!" said the man tried to persuade Rendy.
"Not that, bro! You know for yourself how I used to be, now my achievements succeed! I want to change the system my father built. As long as it's like it used to be, there's no such thing as a change from there.
Therefore, my brothers and I will fix all the mistakes that have been there so far, so I do not have time to relax" said Rendy seriously.
"What are you afraid of, Ren?! Your father and mother's company is a big company, it won't go bankrupt or just collapse. Do you want to keep working until death?!
Akhs! You are now no longer exciting, mostly slang with parents so your thoughts are also the same as them, colossal! Well, I said it first, see u.." said the man then heard the sound of the door open and closed
"Then what should I do? Do I have to leave my family just for the sake of pleasure, Andriana continued how? Huuft.." muttered Rendy.
Ericka who heard it all felt very sick, so much the struggle of the brother for their family. He also recalled the incident they were small to large at this time.
Ericka admitted that her two brothers rarely play or gather with friends, both are too busy obeying the demands of the father and busy taking care of himself as well.
"Am I also one of the causes of his restrained freedom? He should have deserved to be happy, but... Who's sister's friend? Is he really a good person, so his arrival should hide like that?!" murmured suspiciously.
Because he couldn't stand it all, he headed for the brother's room. He immediately opened the room door without knocking on the door, of course it surprised Rendy who was again daydreaming sitting on the edge of her mattress.
"Erika! You surprised me, could you not if you go in knock on the door first?!" rendy was upset.
"Sorry, Brother. I was in too much of a hurry to surprise you.. But the one that surprised me was my own brother!" ericka.
"Shocked why? I'm not doing anything!" said Rendy ketus.
"I saw a stranger come out of your room, I'm afraid big brother why-why I just walked in! Who her? Why-why, right?!" ericka asked as she examined her brother's body.
He deliberately pretended that the brother was not suspicious, Rendy look flutter makes Ericka more convinced by his suspicions.
"Who do you mean? I don't-" the talk was immediately broken by Ericka.
"Not to dodge, brother. It's been discovered, why lie again. If he's a guest or a friend, why don't we know?" ericka told him to corner him.
"What do you mean, Ericka?! You suspect me?" asked Rendy looking at him in disbelief.
"I don't suspect anything at all to my sister, I believe that my brother is a good person, will not lie or hurt his family" Ericka replied, further cornered Rendy.
After a moment of silence, Rendy sighed heavily. He took his drinking water, after it runs out he began to adjust his sitting position, according to psychology, usually people who behave like that will prepare themselves to set the time or buy time to do the next lie.
"He was a big brother friend, a college friend. We belong to a group, called a cyber team. We are a group of hackers, we do a lot of hacking in various large companies or government agencies that corruption.
Until the time is busy working, and there is no time to regroup with them, so they come to visit let alone brother in this sick state" said Rendy spoke casually.
Ericka had learned a lot about psychology while in London, so she knew which people were lying and which were not. He looked at Rendy's eyes several times blinking and avoided eye contact with her.
"Is brother now being honest with me? If you have friends and playing outside is okay, it's the right brother, brother is free to do everything.. Do not think too much about the happiness of others, think also your own happiness" said Ericka.
Rendy is seen swallowing her saliva, she feels bad for Ericka. He played his fingers by tapping them to the side of the bed.
Ericka knew her brother was now restless, what she was hiding from all of them, did her brother have a secret again?
"Aren't you sure?" ask Ericka again.
"What do you mean?! Are you suspicious of me again?! You better go, Ericka. Brother wants to rest again, dizzy I am talking to you like this!" ketus Rendy while laying on her bed.
Sad Ericka saw her brother like that, suddenly her attitude changed. She saw Rendy like that feeling seeing her brother's former attitude.
Ericka left her room feeling hurt with that attitude of hers, she thought too much of it unknowingly bumping into someone.
"Akh!"
"I'm sorry I didn't mean it." he said.
"Ericka, you from the inside?" and it turns out it was Andriana.
"Let's just talk inside, sister." said Ericka as she pulled her sister-in-law's hand into her room.
"Slow down, brother. No one is eavesdropping" said Ericka.
"Oh, alright." replied Andriana softly.
"As we suspected, there's something that's covered up by big brother. I heard someone else's voice in her room, a stranger's voice, and I didn't know who she was" Ericka said.
Without much explaining anything, she gave her earphones to be heard by Andriana the sound of her brother recording with the man.
"Who is he? And what does it want?? I know Rendy very well, she won't easily believe everything she says without any evidence" Andriana said.
"I know, Brother. But it's true that after I proved it straight away, you see me coming out of his room, I just asked him that.
But he keeps dodging and lying, I know he's not being honest about all his behavior. He's still keeping something and I don't know what it is" Ericka said.
He explained everything about Rendy including their conversation earlier, Andriana looked shocked and seemed to be in disbelief.
"He's changed so much, what made him change like that? We need to find out who that guy was!" andriana.
"Yes, I agree. Should we talk about this to the rest of the family?" ask Ericka.
"I don't think first, they are still busy with various jobs in the company including about the legacy. Moreover, we are now preparing for something that has come out of nowhere" replied Andriana accompanied by a nod Ericka as well.
"And who knows the attack has come without us knowing, it may be the man who said Rendy's brother was the attack" Ericka said, guessing.
"Did he deliberately attack Rendy's brother who escaped our attention?" sahut again.
"Is it possible, instead of Rendy saying it's her college friend? Blessing he has been around for a long time, Lord Ericka, I fear Rendy has been brainwashed by that person" Andriana said worriedly.
"That's a new assumption, brother. We never know what's going on, don't think about it, how about we investigate again" Ericka said trying to think positively about her sister.
"All right, how's it going?" ask Andriana.
Ericka whispered something into his ear, Andriana was bearded with a smile, they already had plans for it all.
While in Rendy's room, the man was silent in his sleep, he could not close his eyes even for a moment, he was in a dilemma between his sister and his friend.
"What should I do? They are both equally important to me, on the one hand is my sister who incidentally is family, and the other is my friend who has always been there for me, his family has also helped me a lot while still in school.
When you don't care about me, when everyone avoids me, only he is always there to help me, he's the one who always defends me if anyone tries to hurt me.
His kindness and his family I can't ignore, I have a debt of gratitude with them, I can't avoid them either, do I just give it up to sell some of my father's subsidiaries to them?
After all it was sold not given for free too, the subsidiary was also almost bankrupt. But would my sister agree to it? I got dizzy thinking about it.." he muttered in a dilemma.
.
.
While outside the house behind the trees, someone was watching the house, the man had a tattoo on his wrist, and had small earrings on his ear.
Wearing his black hat and mask, he stared at the house with a cynical look, then he pulled out his phone to contact someone.
"Hello, I'm out of his house. Pick me up behind the house, wait for me there!" he said to someone.
Not long after there was a black Mercedes-Benz car stopped in front of him behind the garden of the house, he immediately boarded the car and left the house he had been intai from earlier.
"How, did you get anything from there? Did you manage to persuade him?" ask someone older than him.
"He still looks confused, but I always emphasize who he used to be. He was one of the members of the cyber team that we formed, without me reminding him, I think he still remembers it clearly with all our help first to him" he said.
"Good, insist on him when it is necessary for him to feel indebted to us, so that we can have one of his father's subsidiaries.
Haha! Who would have thought that one of my business partners as well as my biggest rival turned out to be the husband of my wife's cousin, this way it would be easy for me to master everything.
This so-called one or two oars one island exceeded. We can master his mother's treasure as well as his father's, haha! How's Zacky, papa's smart, right?!" ask the old man.
"Yes, Pa.." said the son was no less cunning.
Who would have thought Rendy had been friends with one of her cousins, even though they were step-cousins, but they had the same grandfather.
And he never realized that all this time was only used by a false kindness from his friend.
