The Son of the Ruler's Daughter 3
Chapter 125 (Statement of Love Pennant)
When the funeral arrived. Everyone present was seen wearing all-black clothes. Bastian stood next to Rendra with his tears occasionally wiped. While Rendra only looked at the father who began to be buried with a blank look and a cold face. He ignored the whispers of everyone who was curious about his identity.
"Sir Bastian, we're very sorry for your father's passing. I hope you can be patient and accept it with sincerity"
"Thank you" The condolences were unceasingly conveyed to Bastian.. Flowers filled their homes.
"Ren, you'll come home later. The lawyer wanted to read my father's last will to both of us" Rendra turned his head for a moment and then turned his back on Bastian
Everyone starts leaving the cemetery, and so do Bastian and Rendra
"Let's go home!" Take Bastian to Rendra who only speaks a thousand languages.
"I'm going home to my own house. Tomorrow I will be there to listen to my father's will" Rendra replied with a cold attitude and then left Bastian alone without waiting for a response from him. Bastian could only resign himself and look at the back of the younger brother who was getting away
"Ren, I have chocolate. Let's eat together" Rendra smiled and ate the chocolate Bastian brought
"Nobody?" Bastian asked with a cheerful smile
"Enak" Rendra answered cheerfully
"What are you two doing?" Rendra and Bastian turned their heads together to hear the voice of the woman shouting to call them
"We're eating chocolate" Bastian replied in a calm manner. The frightened Rendra stood behind Bastian
"Here you. Auntie told you not to get close to Bastian! You guys don't fit in. You should know yourself!" Shouted Bastian's mother in anger
"Mom, it's not Rendra's fault I want to eat this with him" said Bastian trying to defend Rendra
"I'm sorry aunt"
"You should be locked up. So that you know yourself! And you are Bastian, you are the successor of the Dirga family. You should be able to keep our good name. Don't go near this unlucky kid*n. He can smear our good name!"
"Good ma'am"
Bastian recalls his childhood with Rendra
"I should have kept my distance from you back then. Because of my selfishness in wanting to have a playmate, you had a sad childhood because you kept getting punished by my mother" Bastian murmured with a sad face

Risha and Kenzie have started to get preoccupied with all the exams and also the trial for their thesis
"Sha, after this you will go leave me alone? You know, you don't want to be with me anymore? Though I have always been faithful with you" Kenzie in her friendly and gentle tone tried to persuade Risha that she would not leave the house
"No need to overdo it. My decision has been made and you should also start focusing on working at the company. Who knows then that you can soon find your heart's lover" Risha replied with a gentle smile and a calm demeanor. They are always happy when they are both
"Currently, like you already have a boyfriend" Kenzie replied to Risha with a sneering smile
"How can I get a boyfriend if you're always by my side? All men are scared when they see your overprotective mode on me" replied Risha with pursed lips
"Well that's because there's no really fit guy who's been approaching you all along" Kenzie replied in a calm manner while shrugging both his shoulders
"You and Kenzo are working together, aren't you trying to keep all the men that come near me?" Now Risha asked with a serious look and a slightly irritated tone
"We just want the best for you, so there's no harm in us checking the background of every man who comes near you?" Risha was unable to say anything more and left Kenzie with an annoyed face
***
"Stupid, how could those who are usually opposite suddenly match up when dealing with the man who approached me?" Risha continues to grumble because she is upset with Kenzo and Kenzie who are too protective of her.
"Risha!" Risha looks up when someone calls her name
"Sir Panji? What's up?" Risha asked in a calm manner
"Are you busy? I want to invite you to lunch" said Panji who immediately asked with a calm attitude in accordance with his conduct as a lecturer
"Hmn ... alright" Risha replied after she thought about it for a moment Panji's offer. They also started walking together
"Where do we eat, sir?" Risha asked because they were walking out of the campus, not towards the cafeteria
"There is a new restaurant opening. I want to take you there" Panji replied with a gentle smile by Risha
Risha and Panji started to hurry by using Panji motor. They didn't know that Kenzie accidentally saw it
"The boy really. Though already told that do not need to get close to Panji. He was no match for her at all, but still a wayward. It's up to him, I don't care"Kenzie just shook her head looking at Risha even though she was annoyed at him
A few moments later
Risha and Panji have arrived at the restaurant Panji was referring to. A simple restaurant with decorations like a beautiful garden.
Many young people are talking while enjoying a snack there. Many of them also play laptop while eating snacks
"Please" Panji pulled one of the chairs for Risha to sit down
"Thank you sir" answered Risha politely
"We're off campus, can't you call me by another call? We have known for a long time but you always call me 'sir'" Panji asked very politely to Risha about the nickname used by Risha
"Sorry sir, however you are still my lecturer. After all, we are not that close to having to call by name or the like" Risha replied with a sweet smile on her lips
"Well, I understand.what message do you want?" Panji diverts the conversation by giving the menu book given by waitress
"I order this only and juice" Risha pointed to chicken steak and fruit juice for her meal
"I'm this one" said the pennant who ordered a different menu
"Something you want to talk to me about?" Risha asked in a calm manner
"Yes, I want to talk to you about something. Actually, I wanted to ask you something" Panji looked nervous as he played both hands
"What's up, sir? I'm not working on a paper, so there's nothing we should discuss, right?" Risha is seen waiting for a response from Panji
"This time I don't want to talk about papers. But wanting to talk about personal matters" Panji looked even more nervous now
"Yes, just say it sir" Risha was calm because she did not know what Panji was going to talk about
"I, I have feelings for you. I want to have a serious relationship with you. I waited all this time because you were in college. But now you're about to graduate, so I want to ask you, will you finger my girlfriend?"
