Your love gave me life

Lies for the Good

“Tell me where Annabelle is?”

 

Reno who got a report about Sisi's return immediately came to Sisi's house to meet the girl.

 

The two were sitting opposite each other in the modest living room of the house, along with Sisi's mother and sister and a Juan's subordinate who was in charge of overseeing Sisi's house.

 

“I really do not know where we were taken because all the way our eyes were covered in black cloth and placed in one room. And one thing Annabelle asked for before they drove me home, please give Annabelle 1 more day. Give Annabelle a chance to finish it and she promises that if I don't receive any news after the day has passed, anyone can look for it at all costs.”

 

“But who took you guys away ?”

 

“I really don't know who their boss is. Everyone was dressed and wearing sunglasses, big and talking just as necessary. One thing you need to know if we are treated very well there, not only given a very decent meal, we were given a change of clothes and placed in a room that resembles a hotel room, he said,” Sisi tries to be calm and shift the focus of Reno's questions on wider matters because it feels hard to pretend not to know about her kidnapper.

 

“There is no special feature of the room that you occupy, how it is around his house or there is a certain special smell that you smell while in the house,” Reno is still poking Sisi with questions that make the girl dizzy.

 

Sisi fell silent and twisted the t-shirt with a downcast face.

 

“I'm actually ashamed to tell you this, but it's true that I was scared to death. I cried so much that I didn't notice the situation around me. Unlike Annabelle who can still be calm and think clearly.

I forgot to ask Annabelle what she found in the place where we were locked up. I just focus on my own fears.”

 

“Then why did you get released and Annabelle stayed on hold ?”

 

“Since the beginning of Annabelle it was what they were looking for and I was just a decoy to make Annabelle turn herself in to them.”

 

“Then you know who they are ?” reno's question with the same intent made Sisi sigh, covering up the pounding of his heart for having to pretend.

 

“I don't know who Annabelle met when she was taken out, just before I was taken away to be returned home, Annabelle advised that everyone assigned to look for her either from Mr. Wira, Mrs Lanny or Mr. Juan, to be patient and give him an additional 1 day. Please fulfill Belle's request, sir. He has warned me, do not let Annabelle's own life even threatened because it can not get extra time 1 day it.”

 

Sisi cupped his hands in front of his face, begging Reno to listen to his words.

 

“What makes you sure that Annabelle will stay safe if we give her an extra 1 day ?”

 

“Myself, Sir. They wouldn't have released me without hurting me if they didn't believe Annabelle's words. I'm really begging you, sir. If Belle breaks, not only is her life threatened, but me and my family and the Annabelle family.”

 

Reno sighed and left the house. He immediately contacted Juan and asked the opinion of the confidant of Mr. Wira.

 

Juan could not make his own decision because everything concerned about the safety of Annabelle's life, especially now Juan is not on site to hear directly and learn the situation on the field, he said,

 

After discussing it with Mr. Wira and Raka it was finally decided to fulfill Annabelle's request.

All of Juan and Reno's men were forbidden to move until the next day. Alden himself was at the airport, waiting for the plane to leave for Jakarta.

 

“Make sure that both houses remain under your supervision,” Lord Wira's orders. “And for a while, ask Rano to stay at home, look after his son and wife.”

 

Juan also continued the instructions to Reno who was ready to run everything in Jakarta.

 

“If until Annabelle or anyone else contacts you regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at this number,” Reno hand over her business card.

 

“Until everything is clear, please stay home, avoid outside activities by yourself. In front there will be Mr. Wira's men guarding you and will still be safe as long as you are not separated. For eating and daily purposes, I'll have my men send you food.”

 

 

“It would be better that way because it is easier to watch her and reduce the risk of one of you being kidnapped for bail.”

 

Sisi stared at his mother who immediately nodded her mark in agreement with Reno's request.

 

“I'm an intern, Om. I have skipped 2 days, if added again, I am afraid I will be expelled from the company and I have to postpone my graduation.”

 

“Give me the name of the company where you interned, I will have people take care of this matter. If indeed they do not want to accept the condition that you are currently in, I am sure Mr. Wira will arrange it for you. For all of us, right now the most important thing is the safety of the soul Annabelle.”

 

Reno signals Juan's men to get up from his chair and follow Reno out.

 

“Remember, don't forget to report that until there's something about Annabelle. Mr. Wira won't let you live in peace until anything happens to Annabelle because you're trying to hide something.”

 

Sisi could only nod slowly, not daring to be firm as his heart was at war against the lies he was playing at the moment.

Sisi knows that all Reno's actions are for Annabelle's safety, but Sisi believes that currently only Annabelle is able to save herself. And he believed Annabelle's words about Reyhan.

While meeting with the man, Sisi captures the meaning of Annabelle's words, the man kidnapped them not for malicious purposes but only to get a loose disc belonging to Sarah.

 

 

***

 

While in the waiting room of Otto Lilienthal Airport, Berlin, Alden looks restless.

Raka has given him news about Sisi returning home without Annabelle. The girl's whereabouts haven't been traced because unlike the time she faced Sarah Belle, Alden didn't put any tracking devices on Annabelle.

 

“Elo believes that Sisi did not lie about his confession not knowing where they were taken and who told the men to kidnap Sisi and Annabelle?” alden asked in an emotional tone.

 

“Reno has confirmed several times that Sisi does not know because they closed his eyes with a black cloth. He did not pay attention to the situation around him because he was too panicked and almost did not stop crying because of fear.”

 

“Then how is Annabelle herself ? Didn't the girl tell you how Annabelle was doing during their time together?”

 

“Sisi said Annabelle's condition is fine, does not show anxiety or fear, Annabelle also did not cry, even always strengthen and comfort Sisi.”

 

“Then what's the next action ?”

 

“Africans Om Juan and Reno are still exploring all possibilities, Al. Sisi and Annabelle's family are still under surveillance and closely guarded even they are not allowed to leave the house until everything is clear.”

 

“Nothing else elo lid-close right, Ka ?” alden asked suspiciously.

 

“Not there, Al.” Raka who used to act in two for the good of his bosses could not be suppressed by Alden.

 

Mr. Wira gave the order to keep it a secret from Alden about Annabelle's request for an additional 24 hours.

It would be useless if Alden knew at this moment because it would only add to his panic and annoyance that his son was unable to do anything.

 

Let Alden's heart fidget at the thought of where Annabelle is without having to add the drama of Annabelle's request.

“Kok I have a hunch that elo is hiding something like me,” Alden said in a slightly taut tone.

Raka laughed softly and was grateful that their conversation was only through a phone call and not looking straight because it was certain it would be difficult for Raka to lie.

Alden sighed before walking into the plane as calls for business class passengers were already echoing
