The Flashback

"Niko, send the bodyguards to follow Naina to the set! Ask him to report anything Naina does. Especially if Delvin messes with Naina." Pinta Dean looked at the rows of skyscrapers that lined the streets of the capital on that sunny morning.

"Okay Sir!" Niko Sahut.

"Don't let them get caught if they're following Naina. Get them undercover."

"Okay Sir!"

"Is today's meeting nothing to cancel or reschedule?"

"Sorry sir, it's all been re-arranged for the second time. If they have to reschedule, they might cancel the partnership." Obviously Niko.

Dean just sighed. He actually wanted to follow Naina to the set, but due to the meeting agenda that could not be postponed, he finally decided to send his bodyguard to look after Naina as long as she had not arrived.

Flashback Off

"Hi Na," said someone who distracted the three women who were preparing to go home.

"Dean?" Naina is shocked to find Dean on the set of Rissa.

"Om Dean?" Rissa said happily. Rissa immediately got down from her chair and rushed towards Dean. Dean catches Rissa's body and holds her.

"Yes pretty. Done already?" Ask Dean.

"It's Om."

"Yuk's home!" Take Dean. Rissa nodded in anxiety.

There was a pair of eyes staring cynically at Dean who with his big smile carried Rissa. He tightened his sturdy jaw to hold back the upset. His hands clenched in jealousy.

"Review you De, I'll take them from you!" His inner.

Dean walked leisurely while holding Rissa. Naina walked beside him. Atun and Niko, following him behind while carrying some Rissa equipment.

"Who is that? Really handsome?"

"Eh, it's the same with Delvin."

"That's a pretty little girl! It looks like his father!"

The voices of several film crew and residents around the set when they saw Dean walking while holding Rissa, were heard echoing in Naina and Dean's ears. Dean turned to Naina when he heard some people saying a joke. Naina, just walking around with no meaningful expression.

Naina is actually quite uncomfortable to hear it all, only, she chose silence so as not to be the center of attention.

"Na's car keys!" Pinta Dean as they arrive near Naina's car.

"Make what?"

"I'm driving." Dean is relaxed, and certainly do not forget the handsome smile accompanied by dimples printed perfectly.

"No need to De! I can still bring my own car." Naina replied as she opened the baggage door for Atun.

"Come Na! I just wanted to take you home. Or are we just gonna use my car, okay?" Dean Rayu.

"No need to De. I'll bring my own car."

"So, give me the keys to your car! Let me drive!"

"De, uh,,"

"Heem," Dean stared fixedly at Naina's eyes that were not covered in a mask.

Naina finally gave up. He gave Dean his car keys. He believes, if he does not succumb, there will be a long debate because Dean's attitude is quite stubborn.

Naina, Rissa and Atun finally go home with Dean in Naina's car. Niko, taking Dean's car alone, returns to the office at Dean's request.

When he arrived at Naina's house, the child artist had already fallen asleep in Atun's lap due to exhaustion. Naina prepares to lift Rissa's body to move her to the room.

"Let me!" Serobot Dean from the opposite door.

Dean who was indeed closer to Rissa, he easily carried the body of the little girl out of the car. Naina finally opened the door for them.

"Can we talk to you for a second, Na?" Dean asked after he moved Rissa into the room.

"We'll just talk in the back!"

Naina and Dean sit in a wooden chair in the back garden of the house. Filled with a mango tree, Naina enjoys sitting there in the afternoon, enjoying her time with Rissa.

The garden behind Naina's house is indeed quite spacious for the size of her house. There are not many flower plants or such there, only ornamental grass that grows neatly and a mango and guava tree that has grown high.

Naina put down a long wooden chair right under the mango tree. And a swing under the guava tree to play Rissa. Before long, Atun came to bring two drinks and two jars of snacks.

"You know him Na?" Dean thrust out his phone after Atun returned home.

Naina just took Dean's phone. His forehead creased in observing the photo Dean showed. His eyes are poking at the photo.

There is a photo of a little girl of Naina's age playing with leaves strewn across the ground. His face was very similar to Rissa's, only that his eyeballs were black.

"Who is this?" Naina asked curiously.

"He's Rhea, my brother. You must have heard the story from Mama."

Dean stared blankly at the blue sky. His mind floated considering his dear little sister. He really misses his little sister. He looked at Naina inside.

Lita and Dean instantly realize the resemblance of Rissa and Rhea when they were little when they met Rissa a few days ago. They chose silence and did not ask much because they did not want to offend Naina.

"Yes, he looks a lot like Rissa. Mama said so too."

Dean seemed to be able to read Naina's mind after seeing Naina's facial expression.

"Then from that, I want to ask you. Who's Rissa's father? How can it be, her face is very similar to Rhea and also to me?"

Dean looked at Naina's face more intensely. Trying to read her beautiful face.

Deg. Naina's heart stopped beating. His gaze was suddenly empty. His mind drifted far away somewhere. His body suddenly cooled instantly and pecked. The surroundings were suddenly silent and silent. Suddenly, the shadow of that dark night was present again in Naina's mind.

Clothak. Dean's phone just fell out of Naina's hand onto the chair. Naina is still daydreaming deeply. Dean shifted his body towards Naina after moving the tray and its contents to her seat earlier.

"Na? You why?" Dean asked in panic because he did not get any response from Naina.

Naina was still silent and daydreaming. His mind was still in the shadow of a dark night six years ago.

"Naa," Dean held Naina's hand after picking up her phone.

Naina still remained silent not answering.

"Naipa,,"

Dean raised his tone a little. He shook Naina's hand slowly.

"No!" Naina said suddenly.

Naina suddenly stood up with sweat drenching her forehead. His breathing is irregular. Frightened look.

"You why Na?" Dean stood right in front of Naina. He held both of Naina's arms.

Naina flinched as her arm was touched. His eyes blinked several times trying to gather his consciousness. He then threw both Dean's hands and slightly retreated away from Dean.

"You why Na? Sorry if I offended you." Dean said sincerely while looking softly at Naina.

Dean regretted asking Naina that. He didn't think Naina's reaction would be like that.

Naina was still trying to regulate her breath and feelings. He was overcome with fear of the shadows of that night and the ill-treatment he received afterwards.

A clear thread suddenly flowed from Naina's eyelids. Dean immediately grabbed Naina's body and hugged her. He regretted asking Naina that question so much that Naina shed her tears.

"I'm sorry!" Dean said as he hugged Naina warmly.

Yeah, Naina didn't refuse Dean's hug. He felt the warmth of Dean's embrace. He momentarily spilled the anxiety and fear that loomed all this time in Dean's arms.

Dean let Naina calm down in his arms. He felt guilty for asking that question.

Naina slowly backed down after she calmed down. Dean let go of his embrace. He looked at Naina's red and puffy face.

"Sorry De, please leave me!" Naina Pinta.

"But Na,,"

"Please De! I need some time alone." Naina.

"I'm sorry Na!"

"Yes. But please put me down for yourself De!" Pinta Naina turned her back to Dean.

Dean finally gave up. He left Naina alone in the back garden. He is still reluctant to go home because he thinks of Naina. She finally waited for Naina in the living room.

Naina sat on the grass. His feelings are still raging. Dean's words echoed in his ears and head. Tears flowed slowly again.

".. How can it be, her face is very similar to Rhea and also to me? .."

"Where could it be that similar? Although Mama Lita and Delvin's mother are twins, it can't be that similar." Naina muttered in the middle of her confusion.

"It is impossible that Mr. D is Dean? Romo couldn't have given the wrong information to Mom, could he? Anyway, Dean didn't recognize me at the cafe back then."

"Oh my God, what does this mean?" Ratap Naina is alone.

"Naa," Dean's voice shocked Naina.

Naina immediately stood up and turned her body. He was surprised to see Dean behind him.

"Dean?"

"Is it better?"

"Yes. Sorry."

"I'm the one who's sorry Na." Dean's words are sincere. She felt guilty for asking Naina that question.

"I'm the one who's too emotional De. Sorry." Naina said after a long sigh.

"All right, I'm going home. Rest up! Again I'm sorry Na."

"Thank you De." Naina replied sincerely.

Dean just nodded. He then walked leaving Naina in the park alone again. Naina just stared at Dean's back which disappeared behind the door of her house.

Dean leaves Naina's house with a heart and mind full of question marks. He is confused by Naina's attitude.

"Is there a problem with his past?"
