The Princess Mayor

52. Go to jail.

"Nicholas has loved Leira since he was on the 'SD' bench, Ma'am!" alissa said half-whispering afraid that her voice would be heard by people.

Mila is shocked to hear Alissa's story of the Son's first love.

"Sorry, Mom! But in my opinion, Nicholas's love, may not be what you think it is." Mila tries to convince herself not to believe too much in childhood love stories.

Proof, Alex! He said he liked Leira since he was a kid. But in the end, he himself betrayed his love.

"Mistake it, Nicholas really likes Leira!" alissa said confidently, as her hand tapped on the phone screen and showed something to Mila.

"What the fuck?" she said she looked confused when she saw some of the pictures on her phone screen, Alissa.

"I know what Nicholas did was a mistake, Ma'am! He should not have taken a picture of a girl, without first asking permission. But ...,"

"But what?" mila asked curiously because Alissa did not continue her words.

"But my son was a child at the time, and he had not dared to express his feelings to his nephew, Ma'am. Only in that way, Nicholas expressed his love. Even when we decided to move house, Nicholas was devastated because he had to live apart with his beloved girl." said Alisa with her face bent.

Mila was still listening to Alissa's story with a puzzled look on her face.

The picture that Mila saw on her cell phone Alissa, it was a room decoration Nicholas filled with photos of her and Leira together in elementary school.

There is nothing wrong with those photos. But for Mila, it was clear she could see everything.

A child as small as Nicholas stared lovingly at his only niece.

"If Mbak's son really likes Leira, why doesn't he just say it now? They are both adults, and Nicholas is also very close to Leira." said Mila who was returned to the head by Alissa.

"That's the problem, Ma'am! Leira only considers my son, only a friend!" alissa looked sad again.

Mila took a deep breath when she heard about the matter.

Actually, he could already guess if Leira would do that.

But from Leira's gaze, and treatment, it was clear that she also liked Nicholas.

Perhaps, his nephew had yet to realize his own feelings. Or maybe, Leira is still traumatized after being betrayed by Alex.

"If indeed his son Madam Alissa loves my niece sincerely, please be patient, and do not stop fighting to get her love Leira" said Mila resigned.

Alissa also agreed to hear Mila's words. His son just needs to be patient for a little while longer, and keep trying. Maybe, if Nicholas is lucky, he'll get his love Leira later.

In her seat, Leira had just started her conversation with Nicholas.

"When are we going to see Om Dante, and Om Yatno in prison?" ask Leira slowly.

"Maybe, tomorrow morning." replied Nicholas as he put a snack in his mouth.

Leira receives a jar of kuaci thrust by Elena, and then speaks to Nicholas again.

"I'll get ready early tomorrow" Leira said as she peeled off my skin.

The next day...

"Are you ready?" nicholas asks when he sees Leira walking up to him.

"It's over!" leira answered briefly.

As they both walked out. They cross paths with Mila and Alissa who just finished exercising together.

"Where are you going?" ask Mila wonder.

"Don't ask, Ma'am. Maybe they want a date, right?" alissa's tease while winking made Leira blush in embarrassment, and her face instantly reddened.

"No, Mah! We both want to go to jail!" nicholas answered politely.

They were astonished by the purpose of these two young men. Usually, if people want to go out the fresh air to the beach, cafe, lake, or watch. This is even going to jail. Is it there, what is it? thought they.

"Yes, Auntie! we're both going to see Om Dante!" leira replied, who realized the confusion of the two women who were very respectful.

Moments later, Mila's facial features changed when she heard Dante's name called Leira.

"Why did you meet that bad guy again, Ra? Can he make your parents live again?" mila said filled with a sense of anger that erupted in her chest.

"Patience, Mother!" Alissa stroked Mila's back gently to calm her down.

"That's not what Ara means, Auntie!" Leira seemed to be struck with Mila's anger.

"Tante, we're there for the sake of investigation. So Aunt Mila, don't misunderstand Leira, yeah." Nicholas tried to cover up their initial intention of going to prison on the grounds of work problems so that Mila did not put a bad prejudice on them.

"I'm sorry Auntie, Ra! Aunty was too emotional ...," said Mila while hugging Leira who is currently holding her as well.

"It's okay, Tan! Leira knows, really!"

After hugging, Mila finally gives Leira permission to go to see Dante in the holding cell.

"Wake, wake! There's a girl who wants to see you!" the prison warden said to Dante who was asleep on the mat.

The girls? The amoora? inner Dante.

In the waiting room, Leira sits accompanied by Nicholas with a feeling of unworthiness.

"Calm your heart, Ra! Don't fear!" nicholas tries to calm Leira who looks panicked because she will meet the killer of her parents.

"Leira!" said Dante half-screaming as he entered the room where Leira was waiting for him.

Leira stood up, and stared intently at Dante who was currently walking over.

"How are you, Om?" leira asked sarcastically.

Although reluctant, Leira still extended her hand towards Dante who was already in front of her.

"Om good, thank you!" dante replied awkwardly.

After finishing shaking hands, Leira sat down next to Nicholas, and Dante sat down across the table from Leira.

"What are you doing here, Leira?" dante asked with an awkward attitude.

Even when speaking, Dante did not dare to stare towards Leira, who was currently staring at him wryly.

"I just want to meet Om, and ask the reason behind the murder Om committed to both my parents!" leira said with great determination.

Dante lowered his head, his gaze now was only on him to stare at the floor.

"I'm sorry Om, Leira!" that's the only word that came out of Dante's mouth.

"Leira doesn't need an apology, Om! Leira needs an explanation!" leira.

Dante shook his head rejecting Leira's request.

"Say, Om! Say it!" yelled Leira who could not hold back her feelings.

"Quiet, Ra!" nicholas whispered as he gently stroked Leira's back.

"Get rid of that filthy hand of yours!"

Suddenly, from behind, Alex's voice screams as Nicholas tries to calm the hysterical Leira.
