"ah, it's already afternoon...! I slept for a long time...!" guman Via while massaging his head that is still a little dizzy.

"oh yeah...! I haven't told mama.!" yet...!" as soon as possible Via got out of bed and grabbed his TG.

"horny afternoon...! just woke up...?"

"later at home, tell me something, Mom wants to get you something..."

"yes Ma, yes..."

"dad love..."

"dad Mama..."

"tuttt...."

"what about what Papa and Mama want to talk about...? what was Brandon's problem last night...?! ah, impossible...! how could they possibly know so fast...!!! trus what...?" inner Via while plucking out a sheet of omelet and stuffing it into his mouth.

"does they want to talk about my future again...? or maybe something related to Adi's departure...?! ah, just think about it again...! now there is something more important...! I need to get to that room...!"

Via who suddenly remembered something immediately washed his face, then walked quickly towards the guest room of the Siska family.

"cool, crite..."

"lho...!!! how come there's no...?!"

how surprised Via when he saw the gift box for Adi was not on the table.

frantically, Via began to inspect the table and the whole room.

almost half an hour of searching, but still could not find the box.

"where huh? how come there is...?! ah, is it possible that Siska or Ayu kept...?! let me ask them...!"

as soon as possible, Via to the swimming pool at the back of Siska's house.

...

"eh, the sleeping princess is awake...! hehehe.." joked Ayu when he saw Via coming.

"how did you sleep...? good night...?" continued.

"lumayan Yu.., only my head is still a bit heavy...!"

"how heavy is it...?! drink it roughly...! like a thirsty man...! hahahaha.." this time Siska said with a laugh.

"heaven...!!! you are the same...! equally thick stomach...!!! hahahaha.." said Via with a laugh.

"lho..., which Sonia...? melinda said it was still here...?!" Via turned his gaze around, looking for Sonia's whereabouts.

"oh, he just got home.., picked up by his Mama.." replied Siska.

"ow..., did Brekele's girlfriend also come...?"

Siska shook her head, "His own mother, only..., her mother had asked, who hit Brandon until he had to be rushed to the hospital...?!"

"it looks like...! his mother also had time to say, if there is a possibility the wound will imprint...!" siska.

"yeah...?! my feeling is not good...! I'm getting messianic with him...!" for a moment, Via looked gloomy.

"ah.., but if you remember what He did to Adi, I don't think that's how much...! if necessary, his tongue must also be cut off, so he does not want to be a person...!!!" suddenly, Via turned angry.

"Adi...?! what did He do to Adi...?!" ask Ayu suddenly.

"eh, i.. that's.no.. that's..."

Via who realized his stupidity seemed confused to answer what.

"that's.. no. ah, that's it...! don't think about it...! maybe he did what it was to Adi...! I don't know either...! well, that's...! whatever, bodo time...!!! obviously I'm going to swim now...!!!"

"byurrear...!!!"

Via immediately threw himself into the dirt, avoiding Ayu and Siska who looked at each other in confusion, and,

"What did he say, Mon...?"

"i don't know either...! maybe the effects of his hangover haven't disappeared...!?"

"could be...! is it possible that his head hit something last night...?! so that his brain became chaotic...! hehe..."

"it could be, hehehe..."

"byurrr...!!!"

Siska joined the cast, followed by Ayu not long later.

...

"trus, what did you answer to Mama Sonia?" ask Via again to Siska while swimming.

"yes I just said you're crooked again...! at first his mother was angry because she thought Brandon was being bullied, but after knowing who hit you, and after I explained why you hit him because he wanted to make a mess here, finally her mother left without saying anything else...! well, maybe her mother's confused about who to blame...!" obviously Siska.

"hmmm..., is that so...? well, hopefully this problem should not continue...! bother if papa mama knows.., can be taken me all out...!" reply Via.

"eh, by the way..., you guys took my gift box...? how come there's nothing in the guest room...?!" Via recalled his missing box.

"there's...! you're Mon...?" Siska turned to Ayu.

"i don't exist either...! is it possible to fall...?" reply Ayu.

"i've been looking everywhere.., but I haven't met...!" reply Via.

"is it possible that Melinda kept it...?" said Ayu again.

"it could be, try later we find again, all you ask Melinda.." said Siska.

Via and Ayu nodded.

"yes..."

***

after being satisfied swimming, the three of them then looked for the Via box.

nearly half an hour rummaged through the guest room, but still they did not find the box.

"Mails...! Mel...!" Siska shouted, calling the chief servant of her family.

not long after, Melinda came staggering.

"i.. yes non... What is it?"

"you see that little box wrapped in a gift on the table...?"

"there are no non..."

"weird huh? cooking can just disappear...?" Ayu looks squinted her eyes.

"did you know someone entered this room last night...?" ask Siska again to Melinda.

"know I ain't no non, but..."

"but what?" ask Via impatiently.

"but last night something was weird...!" Melinda seemed to remember something.

"when I was busy in the kitchen preparing a party last night, Mr. Adi suddenly came to see me..."

"you mean Adi siKampret...!" ask Siska quickly.

"i. yes.. non.., Mr. Adi siKampret...!"

"Easy Spit, call Him Adi aja...! don't use master, height for him...! hehe..." Siska, chuckle.

"i. yes non.., so, last night Mr. Adi, uh Mr. Kampret.., uh, I mean Adi, suddenly came to see me and asked, this afternoon non Siska, I mean, non Via and non Ayu why...? I replied, ladies are busy decorating the guest rooms...!"

"trus...?"

"after that Adi left with a smile of his own.., he said he wanted to go to the restroom, but strangely, the direction He went was not backward, but towards the back stairs...!"

"you didn't ask where he was going?" siska asked back.

"already non, he said to want to go to the upper bathroom, because the back bathroom again there are people."

"shit...! looks like he knows your plan Vi...?!" I looked at Via.

"i'm sure he must have taken your box...! if not him, who else...?!" continued

"i hope you're right, Yu...! hopefully it's him who took it...!" reply Via slowly.
