I went to Tata's house the next day, Cherrie sat at the dinner table with puffy eyes and daydreamed. It seemed like last night was tough for him.
"Hey Ko, how are you, sorry again to have Cece Anita here..." He looked at me and greeted me first in English, probably not wanting Tata to hear what we were talking about. He knows how to keep his cool, too. Tata who heard it answered him immediately.
"Nobody bothers a sister. Cece told me." Seems last night this Anitanya Cece became his only confiding friend here.
"Have you eaten? There's some rice and yellow rice." I sat in front of him. Tata had bought breakfast for his sister. I brought some nasi uduk and yellow rice.
"Whatis that? Ohh rich tumpeng yesterday yes, pas birthday Papa?"
"Yes, but not as complete as the side dish."
"You can try,..." He opened the package, maybe the type if you are sad to eat a lot. He ate voraciously, even though on his plate he had finished bakmie apparently.
"To this plate of saucer, what coffee is tea?" Tata gave me a plate, I ate while chatting ordinary things with them later.
"Being with your Papa?" I fished a conversation with him after he finished eating.
"Yes, Papa is angry I signed the settlement agreement with Daniel. He did not know I also had to suppress the uproar otherwise our projects were affected by negative issues not going to be a goal because of the pressure of the issues of the group involved in the Papua project. It's also Papa's decision to drop spec, I want to fix everything wrong, yes it's up to you, I don't want to interfere again from now on, taken care of wrongly, not taken care of wrongly, so it's up to him, it's up to him, I'm hands off, I still have savings, I'll find a job at a friend's place..." It seems Daniel can really push on until Cherrie wants to sit down to talk about their debt repayment.
But what happened more than that seems to be, there are words his father who hurt him so he gave up like this. As Tata said he got fired and slapped .... Wong Lee Man can't talk to his own daughter.
"Where might your father give you a work permit in a people's place."
"I'm just going to Shanghai, I can find a job there with the help of a friend. Instead of being told to merried and just be a good wife, giving birth to children is a symbol of family..." It seems he's decided what he did last night.
"Think first, maybe your father is just an emotion, maybe later he comes to apologize, you play away so not good. Don't just cut it off one night." Tata immediately stopped him, after all sooner or later his father would know he was in Shanghai through immigration.
"She calm your mind first, maybe your father will come looking for you, you can talk well." He chuckled at the words of Tata and I.
"Cece and Koko don't know who my father is, where he apologized to his son. He only asked, love reward, love money, but sorry where ever entered in his dictionary. If he is wrong, he is wrong."
Me and Tata take a look. We ourselves actually have no way of accomplishing things like this, because we are actually outsiders who do not have any authority.
"You're top management, where maybe you can go directly like that. Go on vacation first maybe Cher, what your Mama asked, maybe you can move to another company. Don't play away and lose."
"Males Cece's... Mama also does not care, again fight with Papa, he again ran to Aunt's house in LA, maybe soon they divorced, I don't know what. Let me, I work in a company of friends, lessons, the same, let Papa's cooperation I also have to ask him, where ever he loves me I hold it all. Just accept the salary is okay, I have an investment, even though I became living alone, can not have the facelitas as it is now, but I will not starve, it is up to Papa about the company, he just set it... Besides I'm lazy to be told to come over here on a date, so merchandise to be told to merried. I'm not that low..."
"Can you live alone?" I can't believe this scenario of him surviving alone in Shanghai will work. In less than a month he will be found and taken back to Hong Kong. After all, he's a princess, can he live without the facelitas of his father? That seems dubious.
"meaning?"
"I've also been in Ko Derrick's dorm, Koko thinks I'm the king's daughter lives people's orders." He laughed at my question.
"I think your father will find you later. You could have just left. In a week if he wants him to meet your address." I'll just lay out the facts.
"Remain me Ko Derrick's fake passport, ..."
"What?!" I was the one who was stunned he had thought so far.
"Don't tell Koko that I can't." He pointed at me it seemed that his determination to just disappear was already inviolable. I can't get involved in this. Involved in conspiracy to disappear Wong Lee Man's daughter.
"No, I can't! " I immediately shook my head.
"Cece Tata, help me ask your girlfriend for help."
"I think you should talk to your mom at least, don't play this way, what if everyone's worried about looking for you. You can't just disappear, your parents must be worried...." My supportive system, disappearing just like that would not be acceptable to any parent.
"I'll give you a message by email, but I don't want to go back home. Not at all. Ko Derrick?! You really don't want to help me?!"
"No. You should call your mom. I'm not gonna get involved in conspiracy to disappear Wong Lee Man's son. Maybe your dad blames my boss..."
"I'm going to find someone who can help me, and none of you know how to find me!" This girl is really determined.
"Cherrie call your mother first, if you want Ko Derrick's help. Your mom should know you're going to Shanghai, your mom's fighting with your dad too, she won't tell you where you're going to your dad, if you want to avoid your dad temporarily. Ko Derrick obviously doesn't want to take on so much responsibility if you're doing anything in Shanghai, so at least your mom should know where you are..." Finally Tata explained the real reason why I didn't want to get involved with the fake passport.
Right too, at most a year he'll be back again. Or maybe it's only been a month, which is important one of his parents knows where he is.
"Soko I called my mom, but Koko had to promise to help me get a fake passport, so Papa can't track it?"
"Fine, talk to your mama in front of me."
She called her mother and then in front of me and Tata, this time tearfully told her everything. I felt sorry to hear him tell me too, Tata who did not understand what he was saying anything so fell silent and had to stroke her shoulder to see Cherrie crying so much, she said, he asked his mother for permission to go to Shanghai.
"Yes, I'll take care of Koko. You temporarily stay here with Cecemu." I finally agreed after she had a clear talk with her mother and heard her mother agree she wanted to go to Shanghai.
From what I've heard her mother also disagrees with her daughter's matchmaking arrangements. It is not surprising that she herself is also a victim of matchmaking.
"Thanks Ko." -." It seems there will be a big disagreement between Janice Chan and Wong Lee Man up front. Two families will be divorced.
I just hope this doesn't affect our wedding plans.
