''This...... why is this photo on you???, asked Ryu in a stammering voice.
''Does the director of Orland know them??, asked Rei
Morgan was astonished by his boss's suddenly pale face and trembling hands holding the photo.
''He......'' Ryu could not continue his words, he recalled the fragments of his past while still with the people in the photo, the photo was taken before parting ways with them: uncle Ar'rasi and aunty Rania, friends and co-workers of both parents. Their family relationships are very close. When the two friends of his father who contributed a lot to their family say goodbye to the city of J, where at that time aunty Rania was pregnant with her first child and of course Ryu was very much looking forward to, he said, Ryu can't wait to see the birth of princess Aunty Rania and uncle Ar'rasi who is known as a female, Ryu also remembered that later their daughter will be named 'Pearl of Love', which is also known as 'Pearl of Love', they wanted to give birth to their daughter in the town of J which was the hometown of Rania aunty, when the condition of Rania's mother was sick, so they decided to pay Ryu's family a visit to her parents in the city of J.
Ryu is very close to Rania's aunty, he is very sad to have to part with them, at first Ryu is very happy when he finds out that Rania's aunty baby is about to be born, but she was also saddened to not be able to see the birth of her daughter. In the past Ryu even always took aunty Rania and Uncle Ar'rasi to go check his body to the doctor, but aunty Rania and uncle Ar'rasi instead returned to the city of J. At that time Ryu even wanted to come with them. Ryu remembers it was he who gave the photos to them, as well as a letter with his handwriting before the two returned to the city of J, by which time Ryu was already in elementary school and good at writing, she also remembers aunty Rania often picking her up to school when her mother was busy. Memories of past fragments with them reappear.
''How is this photo of you??, where did you get it??? asked Ryu, Ryu's voice quivered and his eyes glazed over.
''Do you really know them??, I mean the people in the photo??, asked Rei once more.
Ara did not speak she only saw Ryu's expression that suddenly turned pale and teary and seemed to be harboring something for so long.
''I know him '''Yes''
''The son of Orland is my papa,
''Sylvia Orland is my mother,
''Uncle Ar'rasi and Aunty Rania, they were both best friends as well as co-workers of my parents. And the little boy in the photo was me, Ryu explained.
All the quiet atmosphere became silent, dissolving in each other's minds.
''Can you tell me about them, I mean about their relationship, are they so deka???, now that Ara dared to look at Ryu, she was very curious and wanted to get an answer now.
Ryu looked at Ara, What is Miss Ara is the Pearl of Love, the daughter of aunty Rania and uncle Ar'rasi??, asked Ryu.
Ara was silent, she did not know what to answer, wanted to say yes but Ara did not know her parents, because she knew her parents were doctor Firman and doctor Aisyah.
''Miss Ara is really their daughter???, asked Ryu once again. Ryu impatiently heard Ara's reply, ''How could I not notice it at all'', Ryu's inner self.
Ryu's face was pale, his eyes were teary, his tears were shed as well. He could no longer hold back his sliced heart hearing A piece of Ara's story. He doesn't know if he should be happy or sad, after 21 years he can meet the daughter of Aunty Rania and Uncle Ar'rasi, and their meeting is not good, he even made a mess of her. Ryu took a deep breath and wiped away his tears, a look of regret on his face.
''Haaahhhh.., I was 6 years old. Aunty Rania works with my mother to take care of a boutique, every day I meet her, she often accompanies me to play, I am very close to her, she is a very patient and loving woman, she is a very loving woman, even though I made a mistake he never scolded me, when my mama was angry with me I always told him my frustration, I think he loved me more than my mama. Uncle Ar'rasi was an Architect and working with my papa, they were friends while in college and eventually set up a joint venture'', Ryu explained.
''Ever since they returned to J city, we were still able to get in touch at first, but a month later, we couldn't get in touch anymore, we lost contact with them. Papa once told people to look for their whereabouts, but did not meet them either. Even my father at that time came to his own home address in the city of J, but the house had become a beach orphanage and orphanage. The people of the orphanage also do not know, until finally the company that papa and uncle Ar'rasi wake up together rapidly growing, we continue to look for but the results are nil. Papa has no time to look for their existence, because he is busy taking care of the company himself, Ryu explained.
Ara was silent her tears just flowed.
Rei held his seat next to Ara, clasped his hand, Rei tried to calm down even though he was late hearing Ryu's story, Rei grabbed Ara's head and buried it in his chest, Crying don't you be a sniff yourself, Rei said, you are strong, Rei kissed Ara's forehead and stroked her hair patting her shoulder slowly. Rei was the most comfortable leaning place all along, with Rei Ara could tell anything.
Morgan was also seen wiping away her stifled tears, she also did not expect the story of her boss and the lady she had been guarding for several years was so heartbreaking, she joined in tears, she said, he imagined what if this happened to his sister Megan, still lucky to have a mother even though his father chose to leave his mother because of illness, and married another woman, he said, looking at Ara who was a kara felt a great pain in her chest.
''Everything is clear now, your director has found it now, how about tomorrow we visit their meal, maybe the director will be more relieved'', said Morgan.
''Miss Ara you are a great girl can face all, despite the many chaos that occur in your life, even now more shining, you are already a famous designer now.
''I also have a little sister but maybe not as strong as you, miss. Even he cried when the man he idolized returned to his country Morgan said as he looked towards Rei. No more tears, I'd rather see the lady smiling. It's not wrong that director Orland told me to look after you, I'm sorry I kept following you quietly''.
''The director of Orland asked me to look after you, because of the mess that the director did to you, and because you wanted him to stay away from her at that time, and asked me to look after the lady, miss, once again forgive me all this time has made Miss Ara uncomfortable'', explained Morgan Long.
''The director should be smiling right now, although he can't meet Mr. Ar'rasi and Ms. Rania, but now that he has met his daughter, Miss Ara no longer needs to suspect us and fear us'', no matter what'', obviously Morgan.
''Yes, well tomorrow we will visit their graves, prepare everything''.
''Each director'', Morgan replied firmly
Doctor Rei and Miss Ara, are you willing to escort me there???, asked Ryu.
''Of course'', Rei replied
The night is getting late, the waves of the beach break the silence, no one else comes to the beach tonight. Even restaurant visitors only stay, they finally leave the place.
