Papa To Kirana

Chapter 40 Intending to Apply

I tapped my finger on the glass cupboard. While my eyes swept a glance at the row of rings neatly displayed. A saleswoman, patiently waiting for me to choose.

Alexa likes which rings? Hm... Wait a minute.”

I remember the first time I walked into Alexa's room, the curtains and sheets were blue. Yeah, he's a blue guy. She would love it if I gave her a blue sapphire ring.

“I chose this one,” I said pointing to a white gold ring that encrusted an oval-shaped blue sapphire with some precious stones surrounding it.

The jeweler's salesman took the ring that I was pointing at.

After completing the payment, I looked at the ring that was now embedded in the red velvet box. At a glance my finger touched the ring, and gave a smile.

“Some time this ring will be embedded in your ring finger, Alexa,” my murmur.

Then, I put the ring box in my jacket pocket. In the car was a bouquet of red roses that I had prepared.

I drove to the school where Alexa taught. However, along the way, my feelings were getting more and more erratic.

My heart was pounding above the normal limit, both of my palms were holding then the car suddenly broke out in sweat, and my esophagus was also feeling dry.

Ah, I stopped by the minimarket to buy a drink. It must be because I'm nervous.

I pulled the car over to the parking lot of a minimarket. Buy a soda. Then back to my car.

However, just as I was about to get in the car, there was a clown dressed up walking not far from me.

The man looked exhausted sitting on the minimarket terrace, putting a small bag on his lap, and his hand reached into the coin from inside the bag.

I closed the car door again, walked up to the man who was now counting his labors. I've prepared a few pieces of paper money for that guy.

When I put out my hand to give money, along with the man who took off his bad mask.

“You!”

The man looked up, his face pale in an instant as he looked at me, and his eyeballs dodged like they were about to be dislodged.

I squeezed out the money I was about to give to the keribo-haired man with messy teeth. Turns out he's the one. The man who kidnapped Kirana.

“You kidnapped my son then, right?”

The man did not reply, instead ran away trying to run away from me again. I won't let her lose track of it a second time. I ran after the man.

Goddess Fortuna is siding with me this time. Because of the clown costume that the man wore, made it difficult for him to run fast.

I managed to grab her gray hair, I pulled her into a narrow alley, and cornered her on a brick wall.

Bugs.

One raw bogem he got at the end of his eye.

“Ampun, Boss. Forgiver. I was just told. Don't report me to the police,” the man is welding, putting his hands together.

I immediately pulled out the phone from my pocket. Opening the camera to record the man's confession.

“What's your name?”

“D-dodi, Boss,” replied Dodi shaking.

“Who told you to kidnap Kirana?” I'm just grumbling, gripping Dodi's shoulder.

“Although, don't report me to the police. I'm just a man. Poor son and my wife, Boss,” Dodi curled up asking for forgiveness.

I snorted in annoyance.

“You should feel sorry for your wife's child, for earning a living from dirty ways.”

Dodi shook his head in fear.

“I don't get wages, Boss.”

“DO NOT LIE!”

Fortunately, we were in a quiet narrow alley. No one passed by and no one bothered me to interrogate Dodi whose hands were shaking tremendously.

I pulled Dodi's hair making her head look up. Then direct the camera that is still in recording state.

“Quickly tell me who told you?”

“N-name H-harsa. Harsa Russell.”

I've guessed.

“Are you also setting my eyes?”

Dodi shakes, “No. I was just ordered to hit the Boss' car. I was the driver of that truck. I was also told to kidnap Kirana. I wasn't told to be a spy.”

“Are you also the one who sent the poisoned cake?”

Dodi frowned, then shook his head for the next time.

Plaque.

A hard slap on the left cheek that immediately turns red. Dodi covered her cheeks using her hands.

“Since I failed to kidnap Kirana, I was immediately kicked from Harsa's men, Boss. But maybe it could have been the person who sent the cake, another Harsa boy.”

I remember when Galang mentioned the traits of the man who sent the poisoned cake. A tall man. If you look around, the Ceking's stature is indeed short.

This time I'm sure Dodi did tell the truth.

“Do you know the person whom Harsa assigned to spy on me?”

“No, Boss. I don't know. I just carry out the orders. But now I'm no longer Harsa's men. Boss can see for myself I am now a clown beggar.”

I wish Dodi knew. However, it was a pity that he shook his head in response to my question.

Then I turned off the camera and pointed my phone at Dodi.

“I asked for your phone number and also your home address. Write it on my phone! And don't try to trick me.”

Dodi still seemed to hesitate.

“Bos won't report me to the police right?”

“I won't report you. I'll even give you a lot of money if you help me. Now quickly write down your home address!”

I glanced at Dodi who typed in a row of mobile phone numbers and the address where he lived. Puffing was annoyed because he was so slow when typing.

I checked my watch. Remembering my plan that will surprise Alexa.

Dodi handed me back my phone which I put in my pocket.

“Remember! Never try to escape me! I'll come to your home address, but not now.”

I took out the money that was delayed I gave to Dodi.

“It. I have a little money. Don't feed your wife and children with illegal money!”

Dodi immediately prostrated herself in my shoes.

“Bos Thank you, Boss. Though I've made the Boss wretched but the Boss is so good. Thank you once again.”

“Hai, already! Don't bow down so!” I said I felt uncomfortable.

Dodi got up with both hands clutching the money from me. Subdue once more and pass away.

“Wait!”

Dodi stopped, then turned his body.

“How many children are there?”

“Two, Boss.”

I took some more money from my wallet.

“It. Take!”

Dodi's eyes sparkled, and he smiled. Back again he wanted to bend over but I prevented him.

“I will definitely help you, Boss. Contact me if Boss needs help.”

I just muttered. Staring at the back of Dodi who walked away. After that, I went back to my car.

 

 

From the car, I haven't seen Alexa out of school. It seems that the study hours are not yet finished. While waiting, I tried to practice saying the words of my love.

I saw my own reflection in the mirror in the middle of the car. Tidied up my hairdo, and cleared my throat.

“First of all, I give flowers to Alexa, then I rest like a prince while showing the ring.”

“Alexa, Kirana needs a mother. So will you marry me?”

I breathed in frustration.

“No. Don't be like that. Later Alexa thinks I got married just because of Kirana.”

“Alexa, will you be my life partner?”

“No. No. gabe. Don't so. How are his words?”

I just kept monologuing in the car. Until it did not feel it was time for all students to scatter outside the classroom. They headed straight for their respective pickup cars.

My eyes were trying to find Alexa, but I didn't see her.

Where is Alexa? Ah, there he is.

Alexa walked slowly side by side with a woman who looked as beautiful as her. Maybe a fellow teacher TK. They were talking about something that made both of them laugh.

Alexa's friend got into the car and Alexa waved her hand.

Thankfully Alexa no longer waited for Gina to be picked up by her father. Now he's alone in front of the school gate.

Here's time.

However, when I was about to get out of the car, my eyes saw the figure of a man first approaching Alexa. I couldn't see the man's face because he was behind me.

Without me noticing, I clutched firmly at the steering wheel of the car. I cast a drawn look at the figure of the man there.

I wanted to break the wheel of the car, as soon as I saw Alexa chatting familiarly with the man.

“I've told him to spray pepper spray on every guy who intends to tease him. But why didn't Alexa do what I told her to?” mummy wrathful.

I punched the wheel of the car when I saw Alexa pull on the man's arm to get him into one of the deserted classrooms.

“Who is that guy? What is Alexa's relationship?”
