The water spilled on the tray came out of the glass that Deta was carrying as he hurriedly walked towards the living room where Ricky and Mika were talking.
Without saying a word, Deta placed the glass containing the cold drink on the table.
Ricky is furious at Deta's behavior which he thinks is always demeaning himself. Start acting like a young master again.
"Sit down!!!" ricky orders Deta to lay down the glass.
Deta didn't budge a bit. Makes Ricky even more furious.
"I said sit down! And keep that tray!" This time Ricky spoke by raising his tone.
Mika who had absolutely no idea what was going on could only stare at Ricky in surprise.
"You want me to sit down or keep this tray, sir?" deta answered but dared not look at Ricky.
His fingers squeezed the end of the tray. Resisting the emotional turmoil that Deta himself could not interpret.
"Sit down here! And put that tray on the table!" Ricky pointed at the sofa beside him then pointed at the empty side of the table.
Don't want to argue with Ricky. Without answering Deta immediately did as he was told.
'I'm so tired of acting like this young master. How can Angga do it any time**???'
Ricky kept nagging in his heart.
He noticed that Deta was sitting next to him and kept avoiding his gaze.
Mika's voice rang out loud enough to try to break the silence.
He put his hand on Ricky's hand and rested his head there.
"Why are you lying to me? You're Ricky's con!!!"
Deta was quite hit by what Mika was doing, she clenched her hands and held herself back from sitting there.
"What lie? Tricked what?" Ricky answered lazily but did not let go of Mika's hand hook.
Ricky felt it was natural for Mika to behave like that to him. It is different with Deta. He thought they looked very friendly. Like a couple of lovers.
"You didn't come when I asked you to come. I'm waiting for you. I needed you so much at that time." Mika talks spoiled and still keeps clinging to Ricky.
It feels like Deta's ass is feeling really hot. He could not sit there to watch Ricky and Mika.
"I'm sorry" Ricky hasn't finished talking because he suddenly stands up and looks agitated.
"Sorry, I have to go back." He immediately runs inside leaving Ricky who has not even given him permission.
Ricky grabs the air as if grabbing Deta. Because the girl passed by so quickly.
Suddenly Mika chuckled and patted Ricky on the shoulder.
"Is there anything to laugh about?" Ricky raised his eyebrows.
"Is she that girl? The girl who made you Ricky Sanjaya? Yes!!! I'm sure it must be him." Mika smiled in satisfaction as if she had found a treasure.
Ricky let out a long sigh and ruffled his already perfect looking hair.
"I don't know, Mika. I wanted to tie her up next to me because I was afraid she'd run away from me."
"He's been bound by you, Ricky." Mika smiled with confidence.

He was also too confused about what to do.
Eventually he decided to feed the fish in the back garden pond.
But his mind just kept running somewhere. And unknowingly he continuously poured fish food into the pond.
"The fish will be obese if you feed them like that." Someone's voice ripped the daydreams of Deta.
He turned his head and saw Mika was walking gracefully towards him.
Deta forced her smile. He knew it was inappropriate for him to be jealous of Mika. From any angle, Mika is the one who deserves to be with Ricky. Not himself.
"Ah, yes," Deta immediately closed the fish food packaging and placed it in the cottage near the pond.
Mika caught up with Deta and sat down at the edge of the cottage. He tilted his head to the side asking Deta to join him.
They sat side by side and looked ahead. Busy with their own minds.
Deta looked at Mika for a moment. And seeing the beauty of the woman made Deta even more insecure.
He chose to lower his head to look at his legs that were dangling down. Then he wiggled his legs to relieve his anxiety.
"I've been tied to this family for a long time. Long before I was born." Mika opened the conversation.
At once Deta turned her head and saw the girl smiling at him at a glance and looking back to the front but with a blank look.
"Mother's mother was good friends with aunt Rika. They intend to match their children in the future. But unfortunately, they both gave birth to daughters at that time." Mika chuckles followed by a smile by Deta.
"Up until a few years later they never conceived again but the friendship between brother Fita and my brother was actually very well established without guessing. Finally, my mother and aunt Rika thought that their friendship would still be established even without marriage or family ties." Mika continued to smile, remembering the sweet memories of her family.
"After cancelling their promise to match their son. Ricky and I were born the same year. Not much different from my brother. Ricky and I are friends. Never once did I think of having any special feelings for her." This time Mika smiled so sweetly that her eyes were almost tightly closed.
Deta listened to Mika in silence. Although actually in his heart he wondered why Mika suddenly told him this. At their first meeting.
"I feel like I'm part of this family. Aunt Rika is very good. He loves me and my brother too. When my mother left us forever. It is this family that supports us. Until Firman bought a house near here for me and brother." Tears began to flow from Mika's narrowed eyes.
Don't know what to do. Deta tried to hold Mika's hand.
Feeling supported, Mika looked at Deta and returned her hand.
"When my brother experienced the worst thing of his life. Auntie Rika's family helped us too. Unfortunately, he refused and chose to leave. If only brother had stayed here, he and my nephew would still be with me." The more tears came out of Mika's eyes.
Deta rubbed Mika's back trying to calm her down.
After feeling relieved for having taken out all the wedge in his heart. Mika looked at Deta who was still sitting next to her and smiled warmly.
"Now I know why Ricky chose you."
