Your silence is killing me
EP.35 Service Travel

That morning, James and Lyra were as usual preparing for their activities. As he was about to disembark, James told Lyra of his departure abroad.

"Lyra, I have something to say." said James.

"Tell me." reply Lyra.

"I'm going abroad for a few months due to the preparation of an overseas office branch" James said.

"How many months?" ask Lyra.

"Maybe 2-3 months, and 6 months at most" James said.

"OK. go.." said Lyra.

"Well, if there's anything, just report it to the head of the guard named Dimas" said James.

"OK. I get it." said Lyra.

"That's it, there's nothing to say?" ask James.

"You know what the hell, he says you're gonna talk. I'm just gonna listen" said Lyra.

"What do you hope for? i forbid you?" added Lyra.

"Nothing.let's go down and have breakfast" said James.

Lyra looked at James' back in surprise. What happened to this one guy?? he himself wants to go and has to go because of his obligation. But what is wrong with Lyra?? doesn't James need his permission to leave?? Lyra's mind branched thinking of James' strange behavior. Not love but like heavy leaving this place, and I don't know why until so.

James went abroad. And Lyra and Vina drove him to the airport. James said goodbye to the two women and then entered the area inside the airport. Vina also promised to take care of Lyra as long as James did not exist and Lyra was the opposite to Vina.

Ben's confidant Dimas is assigned to guard Lyra and Vina. James wanted Vina and Lyra to be watched while outside the house.

Unwittingly now the relationship Vina and Lyra are getting closer since the attack on the mall yesterday. They look like a mother and child in general. Moreover, Vina who likes to invite Lyra shopping because Lyra rarely complains even though she invited all day.

"Lyra today we go to the store usually." said Vina.

"Good mom." reply Lyra.

"How's your foreign language class?" ask Vina.

"Well, I still have a lot to learn and memorize" Lyra said.

"Effort son, mom sure it must be useful" said Vina.

"Good mom." replied Lyra smiling.

While they were shopping, Candy and her mother were also shopping at the store. And accidentally the two cross paths. Lyra was just silent and reluctant to say hello to Candy who always bothers her. And a fact is revealed that Jeny's mother is Candy's mother. Candy is rarely punished even though her actions were wrong on campus.

"Ups.there's a waiter here." said Candy.

"Ups. turns out you're Jeny's mother's son. "reply Lyra won't lose.

"What's your problem?" ask Candy sewot.

"Nothing, but interesting as well." Lyra replied.

"Ck.. What are you doing here anyway? are you willing to buy things here?" ask Candy snob.

"Hmm. ah dres is beautiful" said Lyra leaving Candy just like that.

"Ckk. You crazy girl." said Candy.

Lyra was lazy to serve Candy because it would only prolong her affairs. She was staring at the beautiful dress in front of her. He took it and saw it reflected.

"Put it again if you can't afford it." said Candy.

"Nice." said Lyra to herself in the mirror.

"Sir. I want this one." said Lyra gave it to the store clerk.

"Well miss." she said.

"Miss?? you don't know who this poor girl is? he won't be able to pay" said Candy, but the waiter smiled.

While Lyra, switched to the trousers section and bought some other items at the store. Candy and her mom also do not want to lose and choose some items. Vina called Lyra.

"Lyra.. What do you think?" ask Vina for the shoes she wants to buy.

"Good mom. fits in perfectly with mom." said Lyra.

"Alright, mom will take this as well" said Vina.

"You bought anything, baby?" ask Vina.

"There are dres, some trousers and shoes" said Lyra.

"Good, you have to shop often so that your clothes are not that." said Vina.

Lyra went to the cashier and handed over her card to pay her bills.

"Pay use this mbak.." said Lyra thrust the card.

"Ckk. get rations from the om ya. hahaha.." Cibir Candy.

Brakk..!!

"What do you mean??" tanya Vina kicked down the table with her groceries.

"Tante, I'm just talking about the fact that this girl is an om-om mistress. "accuse Candy.

"She's my daughter.. How dare you call her a mistress.. Would you go to jail??" asked Vina with a sharp look.

"Tante don't help her, all I know is that she's just a kid from an orphanage" Candy said.

"Take your mouth..! I'm her foster mother now." said Vina.

"Guards.capture this woman and take her to the police station.." Vina ordered.

"Watchers?? police station?? " said Candy smiling then her smile disappeared as some bodyguards actually came and pulled her.

"Mom. have let it go." said Lyra.

"She's already slandering you" said Vina.

"Mom.help me. " said Candy to Jeny.

"What the fuck?? why was my daughter arrested." said Jeny.

"Jeny's mother, Candy had gone too far and insulted me in front of my adoptive mother" Lyra said.

"Then what's the problem?" jeny asked, not accepting.

"WHAT'S THE PROBLEM??? you learned ethics?? oh, you really have to be reported." said Vina increasingly upset.

"Sir.I asked for the cctv of this store and for the sake of investigation because the girl had insulted my daughter" said Vina.

"Just try if you can." Jeny said arrogantly.

After the cctv is obtained, the disgraceful actions of Candy who ordered Lyra clearly. And it makes Candy and Jeny scared because Vina looks to have power. Finally, Jeny apologizes and wants to make peace with Lyra and Vina.

"This is how new apologizing habits." said Vina.

"Sorry lady, we really don't know who you are" Jeny said.

"Lyra spare me. please." said Candy.

"How's Lyra?" asked Vina smiling.

"Okay, let's make the deal" said Lyra smiling cunningly.

He makes a peace treaty with Candy and Jeny on the terms requested by Lyra. Inevitably, dislike both Jeny and Candy must accept the consequences.

"OK. obey the agreement" said Lyra.

"All right" said Candy and Jeny and they signed.

"Good." said Vina smiling to see the intelligence of Lyra overcome the two annoying mosquitoes.

While James every day hears good news from his mother and Lyra. According to reports the two are getting closer and more like a mother and child who are always both everywhere. Then about the insulting incident against Lyra James also knew. But she only smiled because Lyra was able to finish it without violence or a single report.

"Looks like Miss Lyra is very smart, sir" Ben said.

"Yes, grandfather did not misjudge anyone" said James.

"Our schedule tonight is dinner with some shareholders" Ben said.

"Okay, just do it, Ben" said James.

"And what about your sister's search?" ask James.

"Still in the investigation, sir, it feels very difficult because it has been 20 years" said Ben.

"May your search not be in vain, my friend" said James patting Ben on the shoulder.

Unwittingly by James and Ben, it turns out Camila is also in the country. And they met at the restaurant where they were going to have dinner with the shareholders.

Ben who knew it immediately put a bodyguard around the restaurant and monitor the movements of the snake woman. "Don't interfere with your business with the company.just watch out for you snake woman.." murmured Ben inwardly.

And thanks to that, Camila was unable to get close to James because the bodyguards chased her away.

"I want to meet my beloved James." said Camila.

"Sorry miss, lies have their limits.Our master is married to another woman" said the bodyguard and kicked Camila out.

"Ckk. watch out for you guys. I will definitely punish you someday" Camila said and left.

Ben smiled at the incident. And James was the same, because finally the important moment for the company was not disturbed by Camila who was still chasing James.
