My Cold Chef's

Lost Coals

Aidan's story is a bit flashback so if you want to know what happened to Bara, Monggo Read Bara and Arum.

Thara gawked when she heard Sekar saying that tonight she went home to McCloud's house.

"But why is Sekar?" tanya Thara was confused.

"Because Aidan and Arjuna have to fly to Indonesia. Their cousin's brother was in an accident and I don't want anything on you if Aidan isn't here" said Xander, who entered the pastry room.

"But chef?"

"Look Thara, there have been a few people pacing around in front of the restaurant the last three days and I don't want to risk anything. While Aidan is in Indonesia, you're at McCloud's because it's safe there." Xander looked at the Arab-Indonesian girl seriously.

"But pastry..." Thara is the type of person who doesn't like to leave work in the middle.

"Tante, just go with Jendra at home. Later we can make it there" Rajendra persuaded.

"Then Aidan returned Thara" persuaded Sekar. "You're safer with us."

"Pastry while on holiday used to be okay" said Aidan who stood behind Sekar along with Arjuna.

Thara saw the tense faces of Aidan and Arjuna making himself give in because the situation did not allow him to bully.

Finally Thara that night went home to Sekar while Johnny and a female bodyguard Sekar to the girl's apartment to get Thara's clothes.

Arriving at McCloud's house, Arjuna's parents were there. Rain immediately hugged Aidan, Eagle immediately hugged Arjuna.

Thara saw how close they and their family were envious of having never seen her in the palace.

"Daddy told the pilots to get our plane ready. Ai, are we leaving right now? " ask the Eagle.

"I've got my duffle bag with Oom." Aidan showed me his Balenciaga duffle bag.

"Thara, you were here for a while. Auntie doesn't want you to do anything because there's no way your family isn't looking for you even though all your flight manifest has been deleted." Rain looked at Thara seriously.

"Good Aunt."

The eagle, Arjuna and Aidan set off for Heathrow.

"I go first, Rain" said the Eagle, hugging his wife and kissing her affectionately.

"May Bara be found soon, Lang" said Rain, stroking her handsome husband's cheek.

"Aamiin's.".

"I'm going first Sekar. I'll be home soon." Arjuna kissed his wife's stomach. "Boy, don't brojol before papa gets home! Remember that!"

She clapped her husband's shoulder. "You're it!"

"Ish you! If you don't hit me, how come there's less, baby?"

"Already! You help find Bara's mas." She hugged Arjuna.

Rajendra hugged Aidan as if he knew Oom, Opa and his papa were in a state of turmoil. "Oom, Oom Bara is still alive."

"May Jendra. Oom doesn't know what Opa Ghani feels like if Oom Bara isn't around" whispered Aidan, who hugged Rajendra on his knees.

"Hopefully meet soon" said Rajendra with his adult style. Aidan smiled then rubbed the handsome boy's head. Then the man stood up and looked at Thara even though it was a little cold.

"You're safe here. Just relax." Aidan looked at Thara flatly.

"Yes, chef." Thara returned Aidan's equally cold gaze.

"Jendra, take care of your mother, sister, Oma and Aunt Thara" said Aidan.

Rajendra nodded with a serious face.

Thara sat down with Rain, Sekar and Rajendra. It seemed that the two adult women were confused to face the problems they faced.

"May I know what happened?" ask Thara.

Rain had just realized that there were other people besides them who didn't know any stories.

"The King is Aunt's nephew. He's Aidan's cousin's brother." Rain looked at Thara. "Father Bara named Ghani Giandra and has a sister named Rhea who is the mother of Aidan. And now Bara has a helicopter crash in the south sea between Blitar to Pacitan."

Thara tried to process how many families Aidan and Arjuna had?

"Sorry Aunt Rain, how many aunts are there?" tanya Thara was confused.

Sekar laughed. "Later I will tell you."

Rain's phone rang and seeing who was calling, the beautiful Oma picked her up.

"Assalamualaikum mbak Miki."

"Maki's sister is Auntie Mas Juna who lives in Tokyo, my mother's cousin's sister" Sekar whispered.

Thara felt dizzy. Oh my God, how many brothers?

"Yes Miki, said Alexandra until fainting and Rhea and Kaia too."

"Rhea Mama Aidan, Kaia Aidan's sister" Sekar explained.

"Oohhh."

The three women no one slept that night even Rajendra chose to sleep on the thick carpet of the living room with Rain's Samoyed dog. Both are waiting for news from Indonesia.

Thara woke up with an all-necked body. How not? Thara fell asleep on the sofa, while Sekar after being forced by Rain finally wanted to sleep in his room. Rain was worried to see her son-in-law get pregnant like that while hot Oma was sleeping on the sofa with Thara.

"Tante Rain?" Thara saw Rain cry. "What's wrong?"

"Bara did not meet. His helicopter found the wreckage." isak Rain. Thara immediately hugged the beautiful and gentle woman.

"Auntie got word from who?" ask Thara gently.

"Aryans. Aunt's niece who arrived first at the location. Oh Allah, Auntie does not imagine how Ghani and Alexandra feel." Rain cried so much.

Thara hugged Rain. Sekar who just came out of the room saw his mother-in-law crying immediately approached.

"Mama? Mama why?" ask Sekar to panic.

"Bara, Mekar. The wreckage met but Bara wasn't there..." Rain crying.

"Astaghfirullah's. Who's mom been told?"

"Arya reported in the group" Rain said.

"Innalilahi wa innailaihi rojiun." said Sekar and Thara together.

"Omma? Oma why?" ask Rajendra who just woke up.

"Oom Bara..hilang Jendra." Rain gets a hug from his handsome grandson.

"Oma, Oma don't be sad. Oom Bara is still alive. See you later" Rajendra assured Rain.

"Hopefully son" whispered Rain though unsure.

Thara begins to find out about Aidan's extended family and she realizes that the family that helped her is a famous family related to Al Jordan.

It turns out that the name of Aunt Miki last night who called was the daughter of Hiroshi Al Jordan and Shanum Pratomo.

Thara knows who Al Jordan's family is, arab-Japanese-Indonesian entrepreneurs who own business malls and shopping centers in Dubai and Riyadh then develop wings to Japan until AJ Corp builds a fabric business with limited edition designs both sari, and, batik tulis, kimono to robe.

My God, I'm in touch with a family that's famous all over the world.

The girl stared at some family photos that were in Arjuna's house and was surprised to see someone she knew so well and one of her rescuers while fleeing the palace and being allowed to attend a culinary school.

You are part of this family...
