The Way Love's
CLVI

Danendra just got into his room. She carelessly threw the bag and shoes she had just put on. His face is so moody.

Anger and hate replace love and tenderness. Right now he was looking at the photo of Sya while carrying herself. His pain appeared. Without hesitation, Danendra grabbed the photo and threw it to any place.

Crangs. The glass from the picture frame was shattered into pieces. There is absolutely no remorse in Danendra. Even he was a little satisfied.

Vaguely the voices of his schoolmates are back in remembrance. Where they say if Sya has taken their idol. In fact, his friends say that Sya only wants Mike's treasure. Not love.

"Aaaarrrgghh."

Danendra groaned furiously. He dropped the things that were on the nightstand. Right now he really wants to meet with Sya. She wanted to say if she was no longer her mother.

If his friends find out if he is the son of Sya. His friends will stay away. It's a terrible shadow for Danendra.

***

Some waiters came to bring food. Mike and I sat at the dinner table. Mike explains what Sya has to do to be able to take custody of her.

He calmly listened to what was explained. His confidence appeared. If it is at this time the decision is in the hands of Danendra. It's clear that Danendra will choose him. After all, Sya was the mother who had been nurturing her all this time.

"Are you ready?"

"Yes. I believe he'll choose me."

Mike held Sya's hand to strengthen. He looked at Mike with a smile.

"I'll get everything ready. You know, you have to be ready for all possibilities."

"Yes." Yeah."

They had lunch quietly. These few days Mike is not seen going for a photo shoot. He wears official clothes more often to get out.

I have tried asking a few times. It's just that Mike keeps trying to dodge.

"Maike."

"Yes." Yeah."

"If you ask you. Are you gonna answer me honestly?"

Mike put a spoon and fork in his hand. He looked at Sya who was showing her serious face.

"What do you want to ask about?"

"What's your job exactly? You know, we're married. You don't have to cover it back up."

Mike's face turned more serious than ever.

"Mikes. If you're not honest with me. How I'm gonna trust you."

"After this. Get prepared. I'll take you to see my business."

His face looks bright.

"Good."

Waiting for Sya to prepare. Mike sent Lee's assistant pad a message to get everything ready. Lee's savvy assistant immediately did what Mike asked.

The atmosphere in the originally quiet headquarters instantly changed. They seem so busy preparing for everything. If something goes wrong, I'll deal with Mike.

"You can't show a scary face either. Miss Sya, a very ordinary woman. Don't scare her" Lee's assistant said.

"Good." Answer the men there simultaneously.

Lufas's steps are so long. He entered in the suit he had taken off. Today Mika comes to the office and makes it to her lackey. This ignited Lufas' emotions.

Lufas violently pulled Mika's hand. Mika saw who had held her hand. As soon as she saw Lufas, Mika's gaze softened.

"You've finally come" said Mika.

"What do you want?" Ask Lufas.

"I want to see you and apologize."

Lufas scrunched his forehead.

"I know you're mad about the last incident."

It was obvious that Lufas was trying to remember something. Until finally he understood the meaning of Mika.

Looking at the current situation did not allow for Lufas to say anything else. Many employees were currently staring at them.

"Follow me," said Lufas who immediately walked over.

mika followed the footsteps of Lufas without saying much. They entered the room of Lufas which was on the top floor.

"Have you forgiven me?" Mika asked as she hugged Luphas arm.

With a strange smile Lufas released Mika's hand.

"If you want to be forgiven. I have things you need to do first."

"What's? I'll gladly do it for you."

Luphas approached and pulled Mika's curly hair. He whispered something.

"You know. Me and him are not good in a sibling relationship."

Mika looks doubtful.

"Face. His brother. If I disturb his wife. He won't stay silent."

Lufas said nothing. He just stared at Mika sharply.

"alright. Alright. I'll do what I can."

"Good."

After which, Luphas approached and hugged Mika's waist. Mika who had long missed him replied with a friendly embrace on the neck of Lufas.

The longing they let go in the room with a lot of files. Without hesitation and without shame.

Mike's car stopped in front of the headquarters. A man approached and opened the door. She smiled and immediately embraced Mike's arm.

They're inbound. Mike's face looked so serious and his face was sharp. Some employees even greeted with smiles.

"They are very friendly" said Sya.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Then what's your business?" Ask Sya.

They went into Mike's office. Asiten Lee was there and with a smile greeted the arrival of Mike and Sya.

His face still looked confused. He did not understand the business Mike was referring to. Until Lee's assistant opened a curtain.

Sya's eyes widened. He looked so shocked, even his hand was getting tighter holding Mike's arm.

"Miss Sya. We're here in the sharp weapons business. So don't be surprised."

She looked at assistant lee strangely. How can he calm down. In front of him right now there were all sorts of weapon shapes. Thinking about what those weapons were for already scared Sya.

"The state already knows about this business. This business is legal" explains assistant Lee.

"We are the biggest arms supplier."

"What are those weapons for?" The question just popped out of his mouth.

"Depends on who ordered. We just sell it" replied Lee's assistant.

I looked at Mike.

"Don't be afraid. They can't move on their own."

His face was even more tense because of Mike's words.

"Assistant Lee. Please take her around. I still want to get a lot done."

With a heavy heart, I let go of Mike's hand. He walked out of the room with Lee's assistant. Lee's assistant kept explaining about the business. But I don't want to hear that anymore.

"What will Mike do?" Ask Sya.

"Miss Sya. Mr. Mike is holding a virtual meeting. Another hour is just over. So, for an hour we'll be driving around."

He could only nod his head.

Mike discussed a few things with the mafia bosses out there. He keeps getting requests for sharp weapons. Even so, Mike does not want to be cheated. Every time there is a transaction. Mike will ask to meet with the boss in person.

If Shay knew this. He certainly wouldn't agree, however Mike's job remains about the mafia.

Even so, Sya still did not know behind the actual headquarters building. There's a lot of cruelty Mike's made. Mike doesn't do it for fun. He did this, to punish the person who dared to cheat on him.

An hour passed. I went back to Mike's room. Mike closes the laptop and approaches.

"Make tea for Miss Sya" Mike told Lee's assistant.

"Good." Assistant Lee out.

"Hows it? you like this building?"

He was silent and held Mike's hand.

"I'm not comfortable here. Can we go home?"

Mike came closer and hugged Sya's waist. He was shocked and tried to let go. He didn't want Lee's assistant to see him.

"My wife doesn't like my job?"

"Mom.not so. I'm just not comfortable."

Mike nodded. He understood what she meant.

"Rest for a little while. Assistant Lee is making tea."

"Then accompany me for tea."

"All right my wife."

The call from Mike to Sya made Sya feel different. There was even a tremor in his heart.
