The Knight in Shinning Suit
(C2): Rudolfo Grimaldi
By late afternoon they had arrived at the MacAllister mansion. Kiana immediately went to her room and changed clothes. After cleaning himself, he lay on the bed, while Theoden was in the bathroom. He heard Theoden humming. Kiana chuckled softly at her husband's discordant voice, then she sat in front of the window while breathing in the afternoon air.
“Kiana.”
Spontaneous Kiana moved away from the window when she heard an unfamiliar voice calling her.’’Si...who?”
Room atmosphere felt to be very quiet which sounded only the sound of wind.’’Kiana...wake up, we have to get out of here.”.
Kiana stood glued, she could hear her unknown voice calling out her name.
“Kianaaaaa....awaaassss....’’.
Kiana was freezing in her place. Theoden went inside the room and saw Kiana standing in silence.’’Kiana,’’call her.
BRUK!
Kiana fell.’’Kianaaaa,’’y Theoden anxious.
Kiana felt her head throbbing, then a shadow flashed through her head. He saw a woman fall and hit by a block. Kiana kept holding her head.’’Kiana, why you?’’asked Theoden with anxious feelings.
Breath Kiana hunt.’’I'm fine.”
“They are fine. Obviously I saw you in pain.”
“So I felt dizzy in the head and now the feeling of dizziness has gone.”
“Really?’’
Kiana nodded and smiled.’’I'm doing fine. Don't worry’’.
“Good. I believe, but you have to take care of your health. I don't want anything bad to happen to you.”
“I know.”

A man in his 50s had just walked out of the prison gate. He spread his arms wide while breathing the air of freedom.’’It turns out the air outside is indeed better.”
Her eyes look sad.’’Kiana Wladgrave,’’gum. He also walked away from the prison gate by just carrying a backpack next to his shoulder. He got on the bus and sat on the window sidelines.’’This city turned out not to have changed much,’’gumamnya in the heart.
After spending time in prison, he learned a very important lesson in his life. He realized all this time he had wasted his life with meaningless things in his life. Including the evil plan that was once conceived with his eldest brother who is now still in prison. He deeply regrets his past actions and wants to correct all his mistakes, especially the little girl who used to live with him, Kiana. A few years ago the greed of his heart made him blind. He was determined and promised himself to start a new life from the beginning again.
The brilliance of New York city made him a little fascinated.The man got off at the next bus stop and a man with a slightly grayish flap wearing an official suit outfit had been waiting for him there.’’Good night Rudolfo Grimaldi!’’
“Night!’’
“Finally you're free too. Come with me!’’
They arrived at a cafe not far from the bus stop. ‘’Two hot coffees,’’said a suit-clothed man named Rafel Rhodes. The man looked at Rudolfo.’’Your appearance has changed a lot.”
“Of course. Now I'm getting older and you've also changed a lot. How about your family? Surely your kids are already big.”
“My family is all right. My kids are grown. Both of them just entered Public High School.”
“If I didn't go to jail maybe now I'm married to my lover and maybe I already have a child. I heard that my ex-boyfriend is married and living happily with her husband. If only time could be repeated.” Rudolfo's gaze again looked sad.
“It looks like you have regretted your actions. That nice. You still have a chance to fix everything for what you did first.”
“I'll do that. First of all I have to apologize to Kiana first. Maybe that kid won't forgive me easily. It's been 8 years I didn't meet her for sure she is now an adult girl.”
“You're right. Kiana has grown into a mature woman and is also beautiful. She is now married to the daughter of the MacAllister.” family
“Eh, really?’’
“True.” The waiter came to bring two hot coffees.
“Thank you,’’said the man. The waiter then left.
“Then where does he live?’’
“She lives in the mansion MacAllister with her husband.”
“I want to see him.”
“It is better not now because Kiana's current condition does not allow to be encountered by you.”
“Why?’’
“Kiana doesn't recognize you now it's free that you apologize to her. He doesn't remember anything about the incident.”
Rudolfo blew his coffee, then drank it slowly.
“It looks like you know a lot about Kiana.”
“Because of this I always follow the development of Kiana's existence. You will know he is an important and very valuable person, if there are people who kidnapped him it can be dangerous.”
“You're right. So has Kiana received everything that belongs to her now.”
“Not yet. In a moment he will enter the age of 21 years and by then he will receive everything.”
“I used to be so angry and envious why dad gave it all to Kiana while me and my sister didn't get it in the least. Now that I understand everything, I know that my brother and I have always lived a life of fun and always wasted money so my father was angry with us.”
“It looks like the girl is already happy with her life now. Will surely be very surprised when he gets all that money.”
“Do not say that Kiana until now has not known anything about her inheritance rights.”
“Of course he doesn't know, because this is still a secret. He's the one who takes care of your father's inheritance’’.
“Dad loved Kiana like a granddaughter, and now how is my sister? Is there any news from him?’’
“Your second brother is swallowed by the earth. He has disappeared since 8 years ago and until now still not found.”
“Supposed brother turn himself in there police, but he chose to run.”
The man pulled something out of his bag.’’It.’’
“What is this?’’
“This is money you can use to start your new life and from now on look for a job. The money is from your father.”
“What?’’
“Your father knows that you are not as bad as your brothers.When you apologize when your father was unconscious in the hospital actually your father heard all your apologies and regrets and he has forgiven you, then give the money to me to give to you later when you get out of jail.”
“Dad.” Rudolfo shed tears. He saw the amount of money it.’’A lot of.”
“The money is enough to meet all your life needs for the next few months.”
“ Mr. Rhodes, thank you all this time you have helped me a lot. You are a good lawyer and also great and thank you for wanting to be my lawyer because of you I did not so linger in jail.”
“It's my job to help you. Now home! Here's your apartment key. Do not expect your apartment to be very luxurious. This apartment is your father who prepared it for you. Your father loves you and your brothers very much, but it seems they don't love your father. Surely your father thought he would leave nothing for you. Your father believes one day you will change and become the man in charge and it turns out your father is not wrong.”
Rudolfo's eyes glazed.’’I promise I'll be a good man now.”
“You must keep your promise. Now I want to go home first. If anything just contact me.”
“Good.” The lawyer left Rudolfo in the cafe.

The morning sunlight slowly entered the room. The clock sounded. Kiana wakes up and sees the sleeping Theoden still holding her. Kiana smiled happily. He still can't believe Theoden loves him. Kiana kissed her lips. Theoden woke up and smiled looking at Kiana with a loving look.
“Good morning, baby!”
Kiana got up and spread her hands wide, then yawned. He quickly cleaned himself up, then they went downstairs for breakfast. Hendrik was pleased to see their closeness getting closer. Kiana escorted Theoden to the front door after finishing breakfast.
“I go first. Today you rest at home. Don't go anywhere. I'm afraid your dizziness is back.”
Kiana nodded.”I'm not going anywhere. Today I started learning the art of flower arranging.”
“That's great.”
Before leaving Theoden kissed Kiana's lips quickly, then got into his car. Kiana went back in and found a card on her bed with a red rose.
Kiana is the lover of my heart and also my wife, today you look very beautiful.I would love to stay with you, but unfortunately my work in the office is still a lot, so I send today my holy love for you with a gust of shady wind and I channel my love through the pores of my soul for you.
Who loves you and who misses you,
Theoden, your husband
Kiana smiled happily.’’Theoden, I love you too.”
A waiter walks into her room and tells her that Mrs.Hiroko Takamura has come, the teacher who taught her Ikebana (the art of flower arranging). Kiana decided to learn the art of making flowers to fill her free time.
“I'll be down soon.”
“Good!’’
Kiana was stunned to see a middle-aged woman who looked very graceful and beautiful with her yukata dress patterned with cherry blossoms was seriously arranging flowers.
“Good afternoon madam!”hello Hiroko smiled gently full of motherhood.
“Siang!”
“Can we start it?”
“Of course.”
Kiana took her teacher to the backyard. Hiroko started arranging flowers.
“Wah, beautiful once,’’komment Kiana, when Hiroko has completed her flower arrangement activities.
“You can also do it if you want to learn hard flower arranging. Have you ever learned flower arrangement?’’
“Same as never.”
“Start now for one month, you will learn flower arranging with me.”
“Please guidance from Master Takamura.”
“In front of you there have been materials for flower arranging. Now try flower arrangement.”
“Good.” Kiana started arranging the flowers and Hiroko watched her carefully.
“Completed.”
Hiroko assessed the results of the Kiana flower arrangement that looked random and also not harmonious.
“I know for sure the result is not good, is not it?’’
“True. Looks like you have to study hard starting today.”
In two hours Kiana learned the art of flower arranging and often made mistakes as well as reprimands from her teacher and finally two hours passed, Kiana looked tired after she finished learning ikebana. The day has entered the afternoon the twilight shade has been seen in the sky.
“How was your practice of flower arranging?’’ask Hendrik.
“Very difficult. It turned out not to be as easy as I imagined and I had done a lot of mistakes.” Kiana looked pouted and Hendrik just smiled.
“Don't give up. This will be the first day of course slowly you will definitely be able to do it better again.”
“Good.” Kiana just sat down in a doldrums.
“Excite!”
Kiana nodded.

In the morning Kiana woke up early in the morning with eyes that were still sleepy. Last night he fell asleep while waiting for Theoden to come home and this morning, he did not find Theoden in the room. Kiana goes to the kitchen and is surprised to see Theoden there.
’’Morning!’’sapana.
Kiana widened her eyes surprised to see her husband in the kitchen making pancakes.
“I made you pancakes.”
“Not usually you cook it you can cook?”ask Kiana.
“Just make pancakes I can.”
Theoden brought two plates full of pancakes to the dining room.
“It's so good. I didn't expect your pancakes to taste so good.”
“Eat a lot. I can make it again.”
“It's enough.”
Theoden gave Kiana a glass of hot milk.
“Thank you.”
After breakfast is finished. Theoden immediately embraced Kiana's waist until he entered the room.
“I miss you. Last night you were asleep and couldn't talk to you.”
“I'm sorry.”
“A day at the office makes me miss you so much. It's a day off, so I can be with you all day. I can't stand not seeing you for a day. Strange as it may seem, I could bear it, if I hadn't met you for days, but now since I know you love me, every time I've missed you and wanted to see you.”
“Theo, I miss you too.” With a quick motion Theoden kissed Kiana's forehead and kissed her lips which made the girl surprised by Theoden's treatment who always acted together after their return from the hotel. Kiana really likes that.
“Theo, what if anyone sees it?’’
“No one will see it. This is our room. No one else is here.”
“You're right. I forgot.” Kiana smiled broadly.
“You're.”Theoden pinched Kiana's cheek in a fit of anxiety.
Kiana then rested her head on Theoden's broad shoulders enjoying their togetherness.
“Do you still often feel headaches again?’’
“No, today I don't feel dizzy.”
“Later I will take you to the hospital, if I am not too busy with office affairs.”
“I'm fine. So no need to go to the hospital.”
“ Anyway you have to go to the hospital. I won't calm down before you get checked out carefully.”
“Well if that's what you want.”
Theoden rubbing Kiana's hair.’’I'm happy if you follow my words.” [ ]
