The Line of Destiny Iriana
Horse riding

Victor and Iriana just finished a meeting with a client at a five-star restaurant.

" Let's go, Barack and the others ask us to come to cafe X now" Victor asked as he got up from his seat.

" To cafe X?" ask Iriana.

" Hm the cafe you came to a few days ago." said Victor, there was a thin smile on his lips.

" How did you know I was there? I don't even see your whereabouts, or maybe you're still telling people to follow me?" Adriana tries to stand up by pointing at Victor.

" Ck, how do I know it doesn't matter, tell me what you were doing there?" victor asked as he opened the car door for Iriana.

" I saw a friend there, what are you doing yourself at the cafe? don't you usually go to places like that?" Iriana tries to shift the conversation so Victor doesn't ask further about who the friend is.

" Don't switch the conversation, which friend you met at the cafe, if Jessica, it's not possible because she's going abroad with Samuel." Urge Victor to start running his car.

" Answer first my question then I will answer your question." Irian replied not to lose.

" I saw your car in the cafe parking lot and I went there to meet Evlyn, now tell me who's the friend you met?"

" Evlyn? the woman who looks meek but full of tricks?" cynical Iriana. " I'm just meeting a new friend you don't know yet" he added.

Victor just shook his head to hear what Iriana said about Evlyn, the woman he had known for a long time.

Until now Victor does not know the reason why Iriana does not like Evlyn. Her best friend always said that Evlyn was not the innocent woman she looked like.

The Lamborghini that Victor drove was speeding through the streets of the city to its destination.

" Why are we here?" iriana asked when they had reached the place she used to ride. " Aren't you going to the cafe?"

" Lord Taomasa asked me to drive you here." replied Victor flatly then went down first and opened the door for Iriana.

" So the Grandpa is inside?" iriana's eyes sparkled knowing that Taomasa was there.

" Hm, he wants to take you on a horse" replied Victor, he immediately invited Iriana into the stable.

And sure enough there are already Taomasa waiting with Justin, they are talking while choosing a horse that Taomasa will ride.

" Grandpa?" calling Iriana made the two men turn their heads.

With little run Iriana immediately entered into the arms of her Grandpa, riding was her hobby that was why she felt so happy when Victor said that Taomasa would take her riding.

Therefore, Taomasa set up a special riding place for his grandson, there were about eight horses that he bought for Iriana.

" Iriana loves Grandpa" said Iriana, spoiled without shame, despite Justin, Victor and some bodyguards there.

Taomasa smiled faintly at Iriana's embrace, "Grandpa loves you too, now get ready!" they break each other's arms and then Iriana goes to change clothes accordingly.

Iriana walked over to the pure white-haired horse she named Zyzy, her favorite horse.

" Anna got tired of riding here, it seems like riding in the meadow near the river is fun huh Zy." Iriana spoke out loud intentionally for Taomasa to hear it.

Taomasa chuckled at Iriana's words, as well as Justin who also smiled, while Victor looked at Iriana with a lazy look as if he was scorning Iriana.

" Cih, she started acting as a cute little bunny." so inwardly Victor.

" Well, we'll ride into the meadow as you wish." Taomasa said.

Iriana smiled sweetly at Taomasa, then turned to look at Victor with a grinning smile as if she was saying, 'Look, this cute little bunny did not work.'

He already knew Victor very well so he could easily interpret the gaze that Victor had laid on him.

" But our Master only brought a few bodyguards, if you and Miss riding outside will be very dangerous because of the lack of security." prevent Justin.

" Nothing will happen to me and Iriana, you can go and solve the problem of those stupid bandits.!" tampik Taomasa's.

Justin was forced to agree that he told his son to stay to look after Taomasa and Iriana.

" Daddy go first you stay here with Mr. Taomasa and Miss Ana!" pat on Victor's shoulder.

" Okay sir, then we'll excuse you." said Justin as he bowed respectfully followed by Victor who also did the same.

After Justin and Victor leave Iriana immediately board Zyzy as well as Taomasa, the man also rides a black horse of his choice.

The two horses walked together towards the meadow escorted by the bodyguards. A sweet smile continued to expand adorning the beautiful face of Iriana who usually looks flat and cold.

" Are you happy?" tanya Taomasa turned towards Iriana.

Iriana's head turned her head while nodding excitedly, "Tremendously, Iriana is very happy Grandpa" he said enthusiastically.

" Be happy, for the happiness of Grandpa and Grandma comes from you." said Taomasa softly.

They finally arrived at a vast grassland, there was a large tree towering, located on the edge of the river flow that the water is very clear, and the water is very clear, the air there is also very cool and fresh because it is close to the forest with shady trees across the river.

Satisfied to go around, Iriana and Taomasa came down from the horse and sat under a tree facing the river.

" Grandpa.." call Iriana turning towards Taomasa who was looking straight ahead.

" Hm." Taomasa simply replied with deheman, he was busy enjoying the fresh air there.

" If Adriana gets married, Grandpa wants what kind of man to be Ana's husband?" tanya Iriana hesitated.

Surprised, that was what Taomasa felt at this time, the granddaughter who had never been close to a man other than her six best friends was suddenly talking about a marriage.

Could it be that he heard wrong or that Iriana spoke wrong?

" What do you mean?" Taomasa's head turned to look at Iriana full of question marks.

While the one being stared at instead smiled awkwardly, Iriana knew that her strange and sudden-impressed question must have surprised Taomasa.

" Yes... Grandpa wants what kind of granddaughter-in-law?" iriana, her eyes were moving wildly in any direction.

Taomasa was speechless as he was thinking, his eyes unable to look at his grandson's face.

" The man should be able to protect you, respect you and make you happy, but the most important thing of all is that he should be able to love you with all his heart." Taomasa said softly but full of seriousness.

Iriana's vision was suddenly blurry as it was covered by a membrane of tears that came out upon hearing Taomasa's words.

His heart warmed up feeling touched by Taomasa's words, he immediately hugged the body of the man who always cared for and loved him.

Both Taomasa and Iriana were silent, they hugged each other without a word, until Taomasa remembered something and immediately broke his embrace.

" It seems like it's time Grandpa gave this to you" he said, handing him an elongated wooden box with gorgeous carvings over its surface.

" What is this?" Iriana received it enthusiastically like a child who had just been given chocolate.

Slowly the box was opened, a necklace with a silver pendant in the shape of an angel's wing was broken.

" Isn't this the legacy necklace from the great-grandfather Grandpa told you about? why give it to me?" Iriana stared at the necklace in her hands and Taomasa alternately.

" So sooner or later the necklace will be yours, because you will be my successor, so take good care of this necklace." Taomasa paused for a moment his words.

" Remember this is fine Iriana! This necklace is a symbol that has meaning, anyone who has this necklace then he has a great responsibility on his shoulders as a leader, Grandpa is sure you can replace me later, Grandpa, for that you must be a strong and strong woman and never forget all the upbringing that your Grandpa and Grandma have taught you so far!" Imbuh Taomasa full of emphasis and firmness in every speech.

" Good Grandpa, Iriana promised to be what Grandpa and Grandma wanted, Iriana will take good care of this necklace" Iriana replied no less seriously.

Taomasa smiled proudly and then gently ruffled Iriana's hair, until the blond hair was a little messy.

" Why did one of his wings break? isn't the tattoo on Grandpa's arm his wings aren't broken?" iriana asked again observing the necklace pendant.

" The wing was broken as evidence of the sacrifice and struggle of the former leaders." Taomasa.

Iriana nodded in understanding despite not knowing for sure what kind of great responsibility awaited her in the future after becoming the successor of a Taomasa Alvonso.
