Arzan, Allura and Ethan are now sitting in a cafe not far from the hospital building where Mr. Okta is being treated. Arzan forgets that Ethan could show up at any time there, like that. The arrival of Arzan and Allura is known by Ethan who indeed continues to monitor the state of Mr. Okta for 24 hours. In fact, Ethan deliberately keeps a CCTV to make it easier to carry out the duties of the father. Arzan and Allura were a little lucky because the man was kind enough to let them meet Mr. Okta.
"So, you're Ani's mother's daughter?" ethan asked after a while they fell silent.
Allura nodded stiffly, his hands had even let out cold sweat so afraid he was stared at by the man sitting in front of him. Under the table, Arzan continues to try to calm Allura's heart by holding the hand of the lover. He knew very well that Allura was currently stricken with fear.
"I–iya, Tu–tuan," Allura replied with her head bowed deeply. He did not dare to raise his head at all, even if only to look at the face of his step-cousin.
Ethan smiled at his smile. In fact, he did not care much about Allura's affairs and his adoptive father because his duty was only to look after Mr. Okta.
"You don't have to feel scared and nervous like that. I won't tell Papa your arrival, but .. it's not free" he said with a faint grin and looked at Arzan who had just fallen silent.
Allura immediately turned her head up, she ventured to arrange the man she thought was not far from her.
"What do you mean by the word 'Not free', sir?"
Arzan is still monitoring the situation. Although he himself was already feeling annoyed at Allura's step-cousin, but he was trying to control his emotions so as not to act rashly and make Allura even more difficult.
"You must understand what I mean, cousin," responded Ethan as he showed a faint grin and stared intensely at Allura.
Arzan can no longer stem his emotions. As a man, of course he knew the meaning of a grin and also an intense gaze on women. It made him ride the apoplexy instantly. Arzan learns of Ethan's words and gaze towards Allura. The man had already clenched his hands under the table tightly. However, he still displayed a face that seemed unconcerned because he did not want to make Allura frightened to see his anger.
Insolent, how dare he stare at Allura like that. If only there were no Allura here, I would have made sure he would have taken his eyes out and made him unable to see again, Arzan murmured in his heart.
Allura herself felt annoyed at the man in front of her, she could have been looking mischievously at him who was her own cousin.
"Get your gaze and your speech, Mr. Ethan. I'm not that kind of girl!" allura said as he stared intently at his step-cousin.
Ethan curled his lips down with his chin raised, he instead increasingly challenged Allura. To her, Allura is just an ordinary country girl that she doesn't need to fear because Ethan is convinced, Mr. Okta will side with her.
"Well .. I just found out, it turns out you're a lowly man, huh?" asked Arzan with a look of condescension to Ethan.
"What do you mean, Mr Arzan?" sergeant Ethan with a face reddened with anger, he could not accept that Arzan said that.
"Of course it's low. You are looking for a weak girl for you to take advantage of. Don't you have the money to pay the lady a night?" ask Arzan again. Papa Bintang was more satisfied when he saw Ethan who had clenched his hands on the table.
Arzan dared to ask like that because he knew that Ethan was indeed not given freedom by Mr. Darion. Although Ethan is his adopted son, Mr. Darion does not treat him as a child.
"Cih, watch what you say! I'm not talking to you, Mr. Arzan. But, I was talking to the cheap lady beside you," Ethan replied as he pointed at Allura.
Allura does not accept herself being called a cheap woman by Ethan. He immediately got up from his seat and slapped Ethan's face hard.
'Plak'
"Take your word, Mr. Ethan. I'm not the cheap woman you think I am!" sergeant Allura pointed at Ethan's face. The fear that had been in his heart, disappeared instantly. Allura would not allow others to demean himself, whoever it was would be.
Ethan's words made Allura lose her balance. Bak was struck by lightning during the day, Allura's heart felt tight and sick. Arzan immediately propped up Allura's body that was about to fall on the floor, he immediately hugged Allura tightly.
"Ra, calm down, okay .. we'll find out the truth first. You don't mind your step-cousin's crazy words" Arzan asked the girl in his arms.
Allura did not respond at all to Arzan's remarks, the girl was busy with her thoughts and all her prejudices. Allura tried to find out and remember all the similarities he had with the papa, but they were all the same. In fact, Allura also had time to donate blood when Pak Andan had an accident.
On what basis does Ethan think I'm Mr. Darion's son? Why could he think like that? Obviously I saw an old photo of Mama giving birth to me and Papa also carrying me, the inner Allura.
Arzan immediately gave Allura a drink to make the girl calm, he was sure Allura was very shocked after hearing Ethan's words because he was both surprised by the statement.
Looks like there's something I need to investigate, Inner Arzan.
Allura received the glass that Arzan gave her, after feeling better Allura immediately contacted her mother.
"Ra, what do you want?" aran asked as Allura pulled out her phone from inside the bag.
"I ... I have to call Mama, Mas. I need an explanation for what the si*lan man said earlier," Allura growled.
Arzan immediately prevented Allura who was about to contact his mother, he did not want to make Mother Ani's condition deteriorate with Allura's questions.
"Ra, we should not ask Mama Ani," said Arzan who was immediately treated to Allura's sharp gaze.
"What do you mean, Mom? Why can't I ask Mama this?"
Arzan gulped his saliva violently while getting a sharp gaze from Allura, he immediately expressed his opinion and advice to the girl.
"I didn't mean anything, Ra. It's just .. wouldn't it be better to look for the evidence first? I'm worried if you ask Mama this. Moreover, his condition is not really healthy," suggested Arzan.
Allura lowered her head, what Arzan said was true, but perhaps it would take a long time, as she was already very curious about the truth.
"You just calm down, Ra. I will try to get the answer as soon as possible," Arzan said again when he saw Allura who seemed hesitant.
"alright. I trust you all, Mommy." After their conversation was over, Arzan finally invited Allura to go home.
