Daniel drove his bike to his cousin's workplace cafe Dini. After arriving at the cafe Dini, Daniel parked his motorbike. Then go inside and ask the staff there. The employee said that Nathanael had not worked in Dini's cafe for a long time. Daniel looked disappointed after thanking the employee Daniel walked out of the cafe.
As he was about to pick up his motorbike Daniel saw someone he knew enter the cafe. Then Daniel turned and approached the man. Daniel spread his eyes looking for the man. The man Daniel was looking for was enjoying his order capuccino. Daniel stepped towards the table and sat next to him.
" Steve "Daniel say hello.
Yeah, that guy was Steve, Daniel knew him because Steve was a close friend of his cousin. Steve turned his head and was surprised to find out who called his name.
" Eh, brother Daniel what's looking for me "asked Steve.
Steve guesses that Daniel is currently looking for his cousin. Steve just kept quiet and drank his order cappuccino while waiting for Daniel to talk. He was a little nervous sitting near Daniel, the talkative singles. Although Daniel's manners are calm but he's a firm man.
" Where's Xander "ask Daniel.
Among his friends and companions Nathanael was called Xander. The name of his father Alexander. Just by mentioning his father's name people will be disinclined to Nathanael. A rich businessman is equal to Papa Sam. But not with Nathanael, he wanted to be known by his friends as Nathanael alone without the big name of his father behind his name. Ok, just a little story about Nathanael besuk continued again. Back to Daniel and Steve.
" T don't know "said Steve nervously.
" From your tone, you must know where Xander is now" said Daniel staring intently at Steve.
Steve silently seemed to think and weigh whether to tell Daniel or not about the whereabouts of his best friend. Because Nathanael told him not to tell me where he is now.
" How about "ask Daniel.
Steve sighed slowly a moment later.
" Why did Daniel look for him instead of Xander in brother's place" Steve said.
" If he was in my place, I wouldn't look for him "cried Daniel glanced sharply at Steve.
Steve rubbed his non-itchy nape to relieve his nervousness. Why is he so creepy, Steve's mind shuddered in horror.
" Where is Xander ? " ask Daniel again.
After a few moments of silence.
" Alright, come in the xx restaurant he's there" Steve said at last.
" Thank you "Daniel got up from his seat and passed from the cafe Dini.
Daniel has arrived at the restaurant indicated by Steve. It was a lot of restaurants, Daniel thought. Although this restaurant is fairly new but many fans, especially among young people. Especially this Saturday night. It is late afternoon but it is crowded especially at night. Maybe more visitors. Daniel remembered something and looked for someone he must have known. Because as far as Daniel knows this is a restaurant owned by Leo friend Steve and his cousin.
At that time Leo was talking to one of the employees. When he was about to go into his room a glimpse of Daniel walking towards him. Leo approached Daniel and the two sat facing each other.
" Sister Daniel how are you" Leo said.
" My good news is, you know where Xander "asked Daniel.
Leo looked at Daniel and turned to the phone behind his pocket. There was a message from Steve. After reading it without replying Leo knew Daniel was here because he was told by Steve. Then Leo took Daniel to a room inside the restaurant. Leo went in first, followed by Daniel behind him.
" Xander" said Leo slowly.
" What is "asked Nathanael without turning to the origin of the voice.
Nathanael knew only the closest people and his best friend called him that way. The man was still staring at the files on his desk. Long time no sound from Leo, he turned to the door. Then putting the paper on the table looked at Leo turning to his cousin.
" Leave us both, Leo" he said.
Leo left the room of his friend and best friend.
After Leo left, Daniel sat down in front of his cousin on the desk. Daniel walked around his eyes in his cousin's room. The room is not so spacious there is only a table, chair, a sofa and a refrigerator. No paintings or frames attached to the wall. The room was painted black and white. And on the desk was a laptop and a small frame. Daniel took a small frame on the table a picture of Shasha in it smiling. Then put it back on the table.
" You still keep it" Daniel said.
" Just a picture" said Nathanael.
" You still love him" Dimas said.
" When I will love her any other way" said Nathanael, staring at Shasha's picture.
It was as if the photo represented Shasha smiling sweetly at him. Nathanael was still looking at the photo in front of him.
" Why your number can't be reached "Daniel switched the conversation.
He could not bear to see his cousin sad. He also could not advise his cousin. Because his fate is the same as his cousin. It was just that the girl had no idea where she was at the moment.
" It's worth not being able to be contacted there must be a reason "Daniel received Nathanael's phone and typed his cousin's number on his phone.
" Before I have any evidence I will temporarily shy away from my papa's gaze" Nathanael said.
" The evidence of what "Daniel says.
" On Jessica" he continued.
Daniel looks at his cousin to find out but Nathanael ignores.
" Come on" said Nathanael, taking the car keys and walking out of the room.
Daniel followed his cousin from behind stepping out of his cousin's room. Nathanael spoke to Leo for a while and stepped into his car. Nathanael got into the car followed by Daniel and the car drove down the highway.
A few minutes later the car turned in a housing and stopped in front of a modest low-fenced house. It looks like the house has just been renovated seen from the material in the yard of the house that has not been cleaned.
Nathanael stepped towards the door and opened it. Then he went into the house, followed by Daniel in the back. In the living room of the house there was only one sofa and a table in front of the sofa. Then in the middle of the room was still empty next to the small kitchen and there was a refrigerator. In front of the kitchen are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Behind the house there is still the rest of the land fenced high walls about two meters. Daniel looked at his cousin for an explanation.
" Whose house is this? " ask Daniel to his cousin.
" My house" said Nathanael.
Then open the refrigerator and take a cold drink from the refrigerator. Then he handed the drink to Daniel. Daniel sipped the drink that his cousin had offered. Nathanael sat on the couch and turned on the tv.
" When to buy it "ask Daniel.
" It's been a while but I just fixed it a while ago" Nathanael said.
" So when you get home there is already "Daniel said.
Nathanael.
" During your disappearance you lived where "asked Daniel.
" At Steve's house "nathanael said. " And a while ago in a restaurant."
" Room "Daniel frowned.
" It's not that the restaurant belongs to Leo. "
" I'm the real owner I'm just standing behind the scenes. And the restaurant belongs to Leo "nathanael explained.
" Oh yeah, what were you looking for me ? " ask Nathanael.
Daniel who was sitting leaning on the sofa straightened his body. And looked seriously at his cousin. Then Daniel tells the financial condition of the business managed by his father who is now given to him. Nathanael listened seriously. Done telling me Daniel wished his cousin could help him.
" How much do you need "ask Nathanael.
Daniel mentioned the nominal. Then Nathanael typed something on his phone. Ting, a notification message came in from Daniel's phone for some money transferred from Nathanael to Daniel's account.
" Thank you if the financial condition improves later I return it" said Daniel.
" It is up to you" said Nathanael.
After a while of talking, the two returned to the restaurant. Then Nathanael returned to the restaurant to drive his cousin because his cousin's motorcycle was there. Because Daniel refused to stay at his house. Actually, Nathanael also rarely sleeps at home that has been purchased from his work so far. He sleeps more often at his restaurant. Only occasionally sleep in his house if his mood is tight.
