The Knight in Shinning Suit

Good bye, papa!

The next morning, Tristan arrives when Phillippa has left his house. The man smiled kindly at her, but Phillipa was already hurt and only responded with a cold face. The smile on Tristan's face instantly disappeared. The man rushed forward and reduced the distance between them in just a few steps. The neatly combed black hair had tangled in the wind blow.

"Philly, are you angry?''

Phillippa tried not to care. He then got on his bike, but Tristan held him back.''What exactly are you? Are you angry with me?''

Tristan saw Phillippa write quickly and the man received a piece of paper with a confused face.

Don't bother me anymore! From now on don't ever see me again. I already know everything. You never loved me. You just made me a bet with your friend. Good bye!

Before leaving Phillippa looked coldly at Tristan who was still standing glued to his place. Both of his hands squeezed the paper and threw it in annoyance. .Phillippa pedaled her bike quickly now her feelings were better. Tristan does not deserve his love.

The sound of the bell rattling was heard when Phillipa entered the music store. He was welcomed by Mrs. Smith was happy.

"Where are you going?"

I'm not feeling well. Secrets are better.

"Thank God. A day doesn't listen to your pianom play like there's less."Mr.Smith chuckles.

Phillippa to the piano that he often played is a white piano that is glued near the window glass. Before he started playing his piano, Mr. Smith gave me some paper.

"This is the application form to take the piano recital exam to get a scholarship. You have to fill it."

Phillippa's facial expression was so happy, he saw the registration form like something very valuable.

Thank you Mr. Smith wrote on the paper.

"The piano recital will begin next Monday. From now on you must practice diligently."

Philliippa nodded. Beethoven Pathetique began playing piano keys that Phillippa played. As always the piano game always creates a beautiful harmony. Mr. Smith closed his eyes enjoying the music the girl was playing. As usual Joshua listened to her in the other room with a peek. He did not want to make the girl surprised by his presence. Twice he met her it seemed like the girl was afraid or ashamed of him . That's what Joshua had in mind.

When finished Mr. Smith went to Joshua, because the man called him.

"What do you think?"ask Peter.

"I fell in love with his piano playing" Joshua said. His gaze could not be separated from Phillippa who was busy looking at the form paper in her hands.

"Since the beginning I had expected you to be very fond, so I'm sure he'll graduate receiving your music school scholarship."

"No doubt about it."

Joshua walked up to the nearest table, then picked up a bouquet of red tulips.

"Give this to him. Just tell me from a fan."

"Why don't you hand it over yourself?"

"I don't want him to know that I gave it to him."

"All right." Peter looked at Joshua with an incomprehensible look. He also went through the back door.

Philippa surprised Mr. Smith gave her a bouquet of red tulips. He looked at the flower with a feeling of being moved, because it was the first time he was given a flower by someone. Her mother's favorite flower.

"Is this from your fans?"

Phillippa was surprised.

"You have fans now. He was your first fan. Congratulations to you."

Phillippa picked up a red envelope and read her greeting card.

**I really like your beautiful pianom game. Stay the spirit of my pianist girl.

Phillippa hugged the flower with both her slender hands and kissed it feelingly.

🎵🎵🎵🎵

Angelica was busy tidying up some flowers, when Phillipa came over hugging her red tulips. He treated the flower as if it were a very expensive item.

"For Philly! How are you doing? Is it better?''

Phillippa nodded. "Your father said you were sick. What are you sick with?''

Angelica was then stunned to see the tulip flower held by the girl." Where'd you get this?"

From fans.

"Fans?"angelica asked while frowning her forehead. Both of his hands were folded on his chest. Phillippa just responded with a big smile, then she told Angelica everything about Tristan. Angelica's mouth was wide open as she read all of Phillippa's explanations on a page full of her notebook about Tristan which they had considered a handsome and kind man. Angelica looked very upset and disappointed. "This is outrageous. If I met him, I would beat him up, he was annoyed with his waistline.

"You'd better find another guy. Tristan does not deserve your love.''

Angelica took a magazine on the cashier's desk and showed it to Phillippa.

"Try to see! This guy is so handsome, right? More handsome than Tristan . I don't think there's a man more handsome than Tristan I was wrong. Although this man is 38 years old, but still looks handsome and sexy. Looks like this guy is good. You deserve a guy like this guy."

Phillippa noticed the man's face that looked very familiar to him. I think he saw it somewhere. The girl was surprised to realize something. He met him twice at the music store and when he helped me from Charlotte. Joshua Adrian Waldgrave's. That's the name written in the magazine.

🎵🎵🎵🎵

Phillippa returned to her home in the afternoon . Lately he has been very worried about his father, especially his health. His father was often easily tired and he was afraid something bad would happen. Phillipa pedaled his old bike quickly to get home. He smiled when he saw the tiny house that was occupied with his father began to be seen. Phillippa stopped his bike suddenly not far from his house when he saw his father coming out with two men he did not know. The three of them were like arguing and his father looked extremely angry and anxious.

Phillippa approached her home as the two men had left and Aegenis was shocked to see her daughter with anxious eyes.

"You're home yet? Come inside!''

During the dinner, Phillippa only paid attention to her father. His face looked very tired, there were dark circles in his eyes. His father worked too much. Besides, he looks very old. Phillippa touched his father's arm and Aegenis gouged his head at Phillippa.

What the hell's going on? Who were these two men?

"They're nobody and nothing happens."

Aegenis looked nervous and his attention returned to the food in front of him. Phillippa looked at her father with a probing look. He was sure his father was hiding something from him. After finishing the rest of the dinner, he was about to meet his father in the room. The girl was shocked to see her father lying on the floor unconscious. He was very panicked and his body went limp for a moment. Her eyes were red, as tears had accumulated in her eye pelvis. He quickly got out of his house, pedaling his bicycle to the house of his nearest neighbor Raven family for help.

🎵🎵🎵🎵

Phillippa cried when she saw her father lying in the hospital. Doctors said Aegenis had another heart attack, but this time the heart attack was more severe than the previous one and his condition was critical. He continued to cry while holding his father's hand.Aegenis opened his eyes and firmly grasped Phillippa's hand.

''Dad wanted to tell you something, There's something you don't know about that house, Philly."

Phillippa looked at her father tearfully and confused.

"Dad mortgaged the house." The shock was clearly visible on Phillippa's face.

Butwhy?

"Because I need money for your broken bones surgery and medical expenses. All this time I've been trying hard to pay off all my loans, but the amount is too large and maybe soon the house might be confiscated. Forgive me for keeping it a secret to you and the two people you saw were the ones who charged you with debt." Phillippa was crying.

"I'm sorry dad! I love you so much. Go back to your mother's family and take good care of yourself!"

Aegenis closed his eyes and never woke up again. Phillippa wept for her father's departure and her heart now feels empty with the death of her father forever. Yesterday he was just joking and talking to his father, but now it's all like a dream.

Good bye, papa! [ ]
