“Pufffff.....What's really going on between you and Bella? Is there a secret between the two of you that you don't want to tell us?”
Dante was silent for a moment and tried to hold back, wondering whether he should tell his best friend or not. Does he have to be honest about everything?
‘What a weird attitude you have Dante! As long as I know you only care about your family and your close friends. Never care about anyone else. Is that Dante's family? What kind of family relationship between them?Why do I never know?’ barack said in his heart.
Barack chose to keep quiet and wait until Dante himself spoke and was ready to tell Barack and his three other friends. The man felt a lot of strangeness in Dante since he came to Indonesia and met with Bella.
“Dante! Don't you trust your own best friend?” ask Barack again.
“Why do you ask so much? Can't you do what I tell you?”
“I can. All this time have I not done your orders? I've done it and never refused any of your orders, have I? Including your request that I take care of Sarah I've considered! Even I gave my own atm card because I I was worried about giving her cash.”
“Good because you have the initiative. Are you worried that someone will take the money?” ask Dante.
“Dante! This is not Indonesia in America where small children are smart to save money. Try to imagine a child of Sarah's age holding that much cash is very insecure.”
“Yes I know that. Then how is the hostel environment, is it safe enough?”
“If you ask as a layman then I will answer safely but if the school there is not an ordinary child or not from a family related to the black world like us.”
“So the conclusion that the dormitory is not safe?”
“Look yeah, when I was there and showed Sarah the cash I was going to give to the guard teacher, she just let the kid out of the dorm. Security is also only guarded by security guards with baton weapons only. Whaddya think?Is it safe if bad people come there?”
Barack purposely tells Dante everything and lets the man make his own conclusions and consider how the final decision will be.
“What if I didn't believe in that school?” ask Dante again.
“Hmmm...I also think the same as you.” Barack replied.
“What will you do to protect Sarah?”
“I will send my men to go there and take care of him. After that I'm gonna put a teacher in that school to keep an eye on Sarah. I'll ask my assistant to find out about the school and how to apply for a job there. I think with the insiders, we can keep an eye on every move there.”
“Good. I like your idea. As soon as you do, I don't want anything to happen to Sarah.”
“Ha ha ha I have prepared this plan because I know you will definitely tell me to do this.” replied Barack.
‘But to be honest I was also worried about that child, she was still young and beautiful once, it was fitting that her brother was very worried. If I had a sister like her, I would be protective if I knew that people in the black world were looking for her.’ he murmured.
“I leave Sarah to you. I don't doubt you to look after him.”
“So? You still don't want to say anything to us? We're waiting for your explanation of this, Dante! Don't you think we're your brothers anymore?”
“Gather the others tonight we have a meeting after I finish my business with Julian.”.
“Thanks Dante! I'm so glad you still value us as your brothers! Don't hide anything from us, we're always open to each other and it should be.”
‘I see what you mean Dante! Thank goodness you're finally being honest with us, you're the only one among the five of us who never told me about personal matters. All we know is that your relationship with your wife and child is fine,’ Barck murmured.
“Hans has brought the man, do you want to see him later?” ask Barack.
“Yes. Soon!”
“Do you want to go to Hans?”
“I don't know where Hans took the man but I'll be where.”
“Let's just say, how about we all meet at Hans's place alone. We can talk there, are you ready?”
Dante did not immediately reply, he was silent for a moment while thinking. ‘I don't want them to know what I want to do there later but there's Hans too. They will know whatever I do. Hans will definitely tell them everything.’ muttered Dante.
“Good. I agree we met there. Just set the time.” said Dante made a decision.
“OK I'll tell the others now. See you there, Dante!”
“No women! We're there to talk about something serious, not for fun. Remember that!”
“Iya, we understand.”
Click!
Dante immediately disconnected the phone without waiting for a long time. That's how the guy is, doesn't like stale talk and brags at length.
“Darling, why are you so mean to your friends?” there was a soft female voice from behind Dante who accidentally heard Dante's words before deciding on a call.
“Did you hear everything I was talking about on the phone?” dante asked turning his back to his wife. When the woman was near him, his hand could not stand still directly stroking his wife's hair.
“No. I just heard the last word you said. That's all, baby! But you are really cruel to your friends, they are all still single and need entertainment.” said Tatiana pursed her lips with both hands hugging Dante's waist.
“I'm not cruel but I don't want any distractions while we're talking. Because the things we talked about weren't trivial, so I only limited them when we talked about serious matters, dear. Beyond that they are free to do what.” Dante spoke while one hand held Tatiana's chin to make the woman's face look up.
“Oh yes? As far as I know you always talk seriously with them. When have you ever spoken not seriously?” Tatiana rolled her eyeballs as her hands held the handsome face of her husband. “From the beginning you were always serious, you liked to intimidate people the most. Do you realize that you are very scary especially when you are getting prey.”
“Do you think I am?” ask Dante back.
“Yes you are so and I feel it too. I'm your wife, baby. I know very well how my husband.” Tatiana smiles while winking seductively at her husband.
“Did you still feel like that until now?”
“Hem...since you first met you you've stolen my heart and I was a seven-year-old little girl. At that time I did not know what love was and there could not be seeds of love but when I saw your charm made me fascinated and could not be separated from you. I've always wanted to be by your side, playing with you. The more I grow up, the more I fall in love and win my heart. Have you forgotten our story, baby?”
“No. At least I never forget all our stories.” said Dante shook his head and turned to his son who was sitting on his desk playing lego.
“How about we spend time with him, baby?” dante pointed at Alex with his chin.
“I just wanted to tell you. But it looks like you were busy fishing from earlier.”
