It Turns out I'm the Second

It Turns out I'm the Second
Ch.51 Puzzle piece



What happened before,


That night Erwin's car ridden through the city streets to another city where a large meeting with fellow entrepreneurs and business partners of TJ Group was held. The wind seemed to enter the window that was lowered by a little glass. Gathan looked out of the street with his chin up. His mind was drifting, thinking about the awkwardness for the sake of the awkwardness that filled his day. Like collecting puzzle pieces, Gathan seemed to think long-goals until Erwin's voice broke his daydream.


"Bos .." call Erwin to break Gathan's daydream.


"Hmm .. "gathan said with a murmur.


"Boss, can I get something?" erwin's question made Gathan turn his attention to Erwin.


Gathan raised his eyebrows next door, as if saying what?.


"Boss, does the madam have an older sister?" erwin asked hesitantly making Gathan frown.


"I know he's an only child. That's what he told me." Gathan said briefly.


"Boss, do you know about the identity of your personal assistant, Tio?"


Erwin's question was successful to make Gathan more confused


"Said papa he's a child from an orphanage who because of his intelligence can get a scholarship from the company to continue his education to college. Why are you suddenly asking that?" ask Gathan astonished.


"Sorry boss, I don't mean to suspect the mistress, but I've seen the mistress several times and Tio had a meeting at a cafe that happened to belong to my old friend" Erwin said, making Gathan straight up. "At first I thought they were in a relationship behind the boss, but from their attitude it wasn't so. They are more inclined to the sister-sister relationship. The madam also called Tio with the call of sister. Is it possible that they are actually sisters?" again Erwin.


Gathan speechless. He tried to collect every piece of the puzzle that had been scattered starting from the beginning of the complicated problem that hit him, namely the accident that night followed the agreement that Reza put him.


Erwin was silent for a moment while watching the look on Gathan's face that seemed busy thinking.


"Is there anything else you know?" asked Gathan with the furrowed eyebrows.


"Oh, he, a few weeks ago, I also saw him meet again with Tio at the same place and there Tio seemed to give a small bottle of what to the madam. After that I don't see him anymore. But, I've asked my friend to let me know that they're both back to the meeting and ask him to pay attention to what they're doing" Erwin told me. It was successful in making Gathan's brain think to the events that happened a few weeks ago. Gathan clenched his teeth.


'Little bottle? Could it be the stimulant drug he put in my drink? Did he get that from Tio? Breng-sek! What exactly is their relationship? Are they really brothers? But how can it be? I need to find out about this soon. Similarly, all the awkwardness and strangeness that has lately disturbed my mind.' muttered Gathan in his heart.


"Win, let me know immediately if they have another meeting. Oh yes, if you can ask someone to listen to what they discussed or if you need to record. I don't know if I'm really suspicious of Tio. It is as if there is something he is trying to cover up and hide." said Gathan with a bright look. Erwin nodded as well. Of course Erwin will be happy to help Gathan especially he has a lot of debt with Gathan who always helps him selflessly.


After saying that, Gathan quickly grabbed the phone in his pants pocket and pressed someone's number.


"Hi, bro! Can I ask you something for a favor?" shoot Gathan to the point as his call is raised.


"Hey, bro! The cake first. There was no change at all! " it's upset that someone Gathan contacted.


"You suspect something about your own personal assistant?" ask someone that's astonished.


"Hmm .. find out first. If you get the information, I'll explain it to you soon. Just soon! I'll wait as soon as I can."


"What's? Be fast? Fuck loe!!!" talk about that someone. "Udah rarely contacted me, once nyariin, directly task should be as soon as possible. I'm so excited to be a person, Than!" angrily one made one corner of Gathan's lips rise to the top.

The orange twilight spray sank, changing the darkness that was dominating. Among the darkness that began to cover the earth, with red eyes and wet cheeks, Nanda traced the streets. Mind empty. His position was not too far from Gathan's residence. It felt heavy to step foot, because he did not know where to set foot. He lost his direction and purpose. He has no place to live other than an orphanage. But she could not go there because she could not make Rieke's mother sad to see the fate of her husband who was expelled when he was only a few months married.


On his stomach that was still flat. Her tears came back to remember in her womb that she had now settled the life of a human child. The fruit of his love with the husband he loved so much. Yes, Nanda loved Gathan very much, her husband. But ... now her husband hates her before he can tell her whereabouts of the baby.


"Darling, sorry mom! Still in the stomach I have made you difficult, how later. Doain mommy be strong huh!" lirih Nanda while rubbing her stomach is still flat.


Nanda was confused ... very, very confused, where he should step. At a time like this, his mind drifted back to the past. He was remembering those who loved him sincerely whom he had left behind. He was wondering if they had ever looked for him or not.


"Om Dika, at Rere, Mother of Aileena, Nanda longs. Papa ... Nanda misses papa. Have you ever missed Nanda?" he murmured with a bright mind. "Mama .. adek ... Nanda misses mama and adek too. Why did Mama and Adek leave Nanda alone? Why don't you guys take Nanda? Is your mom just as sweet?" lirih Nanda with tears. His feet continued to move without direction. Until the sound of the car horn being pressed repeatedly made him jerk from his daydream. He immediately stopped his steps.


Nanda turned to a pitch-black Mercedes A-class stop right next to him. The car glass looks lowered displaying a smile from the person in it.


"Sister Erwin .. "grept Nanda with teary eyes.


"Come, comein!" take Erwin but Nanda shakes quickly. He was afraid that Gathan would get angry if he boarded the car.


"Come, hunt! Or do you want your boss to be really angry with you? Ah, if you don't want to recede, not only you will get angry, but you also keep the salary of the sister cut, bonus floated, loss of the city dong brother." seloroh Erwin makes Nanda confused.


"But Nanda has been cast out, brother Gathan. Nanda was afraid that Nanda would get into the car, but Gathan was angry. After all, Nanda had no place to go." sighed Nanda while wiping away the remains of her tears.


"Alright first, about the boss himself who explained everything. Sing important you now have to obey ruth, if not want the boss really angry." said Erwin made Nanda more confused half life.


"really angry? The one that was ... "


"Udah, go up first, bring it up!" cut Erwin snorting made Nanda pursed her lips. Not wanting to argue, Nanda got into the car, Erwin chuckled at Nanda's pouting face.


"Well, that's dong! Now you're brother Anterin to the boss's apartment. Later if the boss's business is run, he will soon be followed so do not have to be sad again, okay!" erwin said casually as he drove his car back.
