Timeless Winter's
CHAPTER VIII
Reynold Hutomo, the leader and sole successor of H£G(Hutomo Enterprises Group), with a branded item suit from head to toe, hair that is always neatly arranged and expensive perfume that always wafted from his body. This afternoon he was really tired, meeting with a deal that made his mood deteriorate.
“ Don't know yourself, Lukas. How dare they play with me, I'll take care of all theirs.” Sneaky. Reynold was known to be cold-handed in taking care of his father's business which was almost bankrupt when his father died 12 years ago.
“ Alright, but you should know this first Rey.” Luke said, the man was used to calling Rey familiarly when there were no people around them. Rey looks up to see her best friend since she lived in America, then frowns when she receives a brown envelope. “ Open, I'm waiting for your question I just left. Say again
Reynold frowned, opened the envelope, seen with a sheet of\-sheet photos, with the person he so memorized. Kinant. “ Explain!!”
“ The activities of Kinan after siuman.” Lukas answered a question a bit to take his eyes off Reynold, “ Oh if it's when they're dinner. About 4 days ago.” Luke replies again when he sees Reynold holding up a picture of Kinan with a man sitting across from him at a restaurant. Photographed it Kinan was laughing happily.
“ Shit why he laughs like that in front of another man, I told you I'm his fiancee.” Grouse Reynold. “ Lu, we've been a week more than the day we went to Kinan's house, correct?” the one asked just nodded. “ Looks like the girl is trifling my words.”
“ Then what will you do to Kinan, Rey?”
Reynold smiled. “ It's not him Lu, but you know who he is right? Well continue your work.” He said to Lucas, who nodded immediately and he just left. Rey smiled with satisfaction, he didn't have much to say and Lucas understood what he wanted.

That afternoon Kinan was sitting in the garden behind his house while reading some review books about the culinary world, something that became his favorite activity at this time. After deciding on a short hiatus from the culinary world, he spends more time at home. Cooking healthy food for both parents, not infrequently also Ian to eat at home.
Suddenly his phone rang, a foreign number. Kinan was reluctant to lift it, he was afraid it was Reynold, but if he did not lift it could be hurt if he made it like yesterday again. “ Hello..” half whisper, his heart pounding.
“ Ma cherrie Jani..comment allez-vouz mon cher?” said voice across the phone there thick with his French accent. Making Kinan able to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Bien, mais desole qui tu es?”
“Jani, est belle. It's me Axelle.” Instantly Jani gave a mouthful, he screamed in delight.
“ Chef Axelle.. Oh god what's the matter chef calling me this afternoon.” Say it again
“ Do you have time? Let's have tea.” Speaks kindly. And Kinan immediately agreed. After establishing the place they would meet Kinan get ready\-ready. He left a message to his house people that today he did not cook and also did not forget to tell his fiancee, not to need to come because he would meet his friend.
Kinan drives a car with a smile, Chef Axelle, almost 3 years he worked in Jack Rabbit under the leadership of the old man who did not want to be called the old man. She is very loving, always telling herself, encouraging her when down, Axelle always considers her his biological daughter. Therefore he was always comfortable being near the old man. Masi ad about 2 hours later he met Axelle, he stopped the car in the supermarket parking area that is not far from the look they will meet. Kinan was planning to buy some materials that were empty in his house and it was fun.
After finishing with the shopping activities Kinan walked towards, a cafe on the outskirts of Jakarta. When he entered the caffe he thought it came too soon, but no, in this part of the caffe but outside he saw the silhouette of a dashing man sitting back to him, Kinan smiled, he knew it was Axelle. He memorized how the man who was like his biological father, how to wear it, how to sit, his body gesture while waiting for someone. Wiggling his legs and then tapping the table with his finger.
“ Monsieur Axelle.” Call Kinan, and Axelle comes back and smiles. “ Hi old sir.” He teased Axelle again
“ Oh come on Jani, I'm not that old baby.” The man stood up to welcome Kinan, hugging him warmly. “ How are you, ma fille.” As usual, Kinan's jokes always succeeded in making him protest.
It did not feel nearly 3 hours they talked, until Axelle finally ended their conversation. “ Jani, I want to talk to you seriously.” Axelle said as she stared at Kinan's pitch-black bead of eyes. “ I won't be in Jakarta anymore, I have to go back to the Netherlands.” Say the man again while holding Kinan's hand.
Kinan was wide-eyed, he thought he would often meet Axelle in the man's spare time. “ When?”
“ May 2 weeks away.”
“ That fast?” Axelle nodded, though,
“ I need your help Jani, I want you to be the Head Chef at my restaurant, I don't mind if later you will have your own desert shop.” Axelle said again, Kinan only shook his head in panic. “ Please I trust you.”
“ How about Juna? He deserves more than me.”
“ He has replaced me on Jack Rabbit? Please Jani I need your help.”
“ Ok I will. When I must start to work?”
“ Oh ma reine, thank you. Three days before I leave, I will show you my recipe.”
“ Ok, you have my number, just call me. I must to go home, my parent waiting me.bye mon amour.” Kinan stood up from his chair and hugged the man, peeping at the head of the man he had not seen for a long time. Kinan had to go home or else he would be late to cook for his parents. Soon he will be working, so he should enjoy his time with his mom and dad before he gets busy again.
Shortly after arriving Kinan immediately struggled in his home kitchen. Some of the cooking has been on the table just waiting for parents and Ian came because he had sent a message to his lover. Many times he saw his phone was not reciprocated from Ian, but any busy Ian will definitely return it. Suddenly the hape rang, from Ian who instantly made Kinan smile.
“ Hello to.” Kinan was silent for a while, his phone slipped out of his hand about the end of the chair and fell slowly making a sound “ Prak”
“ Non?”
“ Bi keep cooking it yes,” says Kinan. Run to the car and drive it like crazy. Not likely. Ian wouldn't do the thing that would wear that barbaric stuff. Kinaan never thought how Ian could there be drugs. He had to see Ian ask what was going on. He just enjoyed a calm heart. Now he is again plagued by senseless problems.
Trings
His phone reads signifying an incoming message. Kinan sidestepped his car for a moment, seeing who sent him the message and immediately his body tensed up. “ Reynold savage.” Say it while gripping the powerful steering wheel to make his knuckle whiten.
You enjoying your punishment?
