My Father Is A Guardian's

Before the Duel

Early in the morning Mr. Surya had gone to Santoso's room to check his condition.

“Walau use this herb even though it turns out you are still not worthy of a match. Don't push yourself, Santoso.” Said Mr. Surya.

“I don't want to embarrass Miss Alia, Big Master.” Answer Santoso.

“But your condition does not allow.” Said Mr. Surya again.

“I am sure I can stay and win this match. Wish you all the best for me Mr. Big.” Reply Santoso.

“If it is indeed your decision, I can only resign. What is clear is that you have to be extra careful and use a bandage that is thick enough.” Pak Surya's orders.

Santoso then took a roll of bandage and put it on the bed.

Santoso also took some potions that were given by Pak Surya yesterday. Mr. Surya immediately volunteered to help Santoso apply the herbs.

Santoso sat in front of Mr. Surya and then took off the shirt he was wearing. Mr. Surya cleaned Santoso's wounds with warm water and then applied the herbs to Santoso's wounds.

Santoso grimaced and tried to stay calm. Mr. Surya bandaged Santoso's wounds with bandages.

“Master, I can definitely, you don't worry.” Santoso.

“You've been like my own grandson, I love you sincerely.” Said Mr. Surya and hugged Santoso. Santoso was so moved because this was the first time Mr. Surya hugged him.

“Happy fighting!” said Mr. Surya replied with a steady nod by Santoso.

Mr. Surya left Santoso alone in the room.

Mr. Surya headed to his home rooftop where the place will be used as the venue for the match which will be held in a few hours. After seeing all the preparations and judged enough, Mr. Surya went down to the dining table for breakfast together.

Alia, Taufik, and Mona were waiting for him at the dinner table.

Mr. Surya sat in his chair. Ms. Mona immediately took the rice and side dishes to Pak Surya's plate. After that take it for Taufik, Alia, and finally for himself.

Pak Surya's breakfast pattern is really like the Indonesian people where they directly eat rice or other heavy foods for breakfast.

While Alia who has lived for years in Jakarta and undergo a strict diet is not accustomed to a heavy breakfast but over time she began to be able to adapt.

It could be that Ms. Mona prepared bread or cereal for Alia but Mr. Surya was not happy about it.

After they finished eating, they chat relaxed like a family in general.

“Al, handsome Jonathan, why don't you want to?” tanya Taufik kepo's.

“He's spoiled, I don't like. I also have a boyfriend, Om.” Alia.

“Really? Who?” ask Taufik again. Even now his face looked very curious.

“He is now in military school, he is smart but wants to be a soldier, I will wait for him.” Alia said casually, yet her face exuded a deep sense of longing.

Alia bowed languidly remembering Jaseth. Holidays are still long, he is confused how to meet his friend, or,, his heart.

“Di Magelang?” ask Mr. Surya. Alia nodded.

“Eyang has colleagues there.” Said Mr. Surya.

“Walau Eyang has a colleague there, it does not guarantee I can meet him.” Reply Alia lethargic.

“Game later how, Dad?” ask Taufik. He was only in the room other than eating or other urgent needs because he had to recover quickly, so did not know how far their preparations were completed.

“Almost everything is ready, which will be referee master J.” Said Mr. Surya who surprised Alia so much.

“Master J?” ask Alia to make sure.

“Iya, yesterday Eyang confirmed, later at half-four will be here, but his free time is only one hour. Eyang also has confirmed that later in the afternoon Mr. Andreas, the same victor Jonathan came on time.” Obviously Mr. Surya.

“Thank you eyang, have everything set up.” Alia.

“Of course.” Answer Mr. Surya.

“Why did Mr Andreas and Viktor also come?” ask Taufik.

“Later if Jonathan comes home battered they may think we are unfair if not see it for themselves." Answer Alia.

Taufik can only ooooooooo.

“If Santoso lost how, Al?” mrs Mona asked who made Alia choke on her own breath.

“Yes, may Santoso win. If he loses then I will tell Mr. Andreas that I already have a dream man, and ask Mr. Andreas please understand him.” Alia Nyerocos said, not stopping.

He could not imagine dating a spoiled child, who was always a whiz, a rickshaw, a songong, though more handsome than Jaseth though, Alia would not be lured.

Jaseth is a handsome loser but he's sweeter than anyone.

Ms. Mona who heard Alia's answer immediately laughed followed by Mr. Surya and Taufik who were even more outcropped.

“Alright, are you satisfied to tease me?” ask Alia sebal.

“Not yet,” said Taufik who was still laughing. Alia reflex patted Taufik on the back and made the taufik scream in pain.

“Do not play pat aja dong, pain nih.” Gerrutu Taufik.

“Om first who started.” Answer Alia.

This is called instant karma. Alia's back stumbled on the back of the chair and caused Alia to also scream in pain.

Mr. Surya who was getting tired of seeing the behavior of the two of them chose to leave the dining table.

Alia also goes to her room to check on her wound with Mona.

Taufik walked towards the gazebo where he was actually very tired to be at home just like this.

“It turns out this is the reason Mas Eko does not want to do business. Really boring.” Taufik Grouse.

In the past when he taught at the dojang (taekwondo training ground) he could enjoy the outdoors as he pleased. She is not like Rahmat her brother who can enjoy his new routine of running a business in Bandung.

They work hand in hand to help each other in the work so as not to be separated from each other.

Taufik turned on the music on his cell phone and slowly leaned his shoulders on the chair he was sitting in .

He did not feel himself sleeping in the gazebo without anyone wanting to disturb his sleep.
