“Yes, Jose it .. fun,” Maria said after searching for the right word equivalent. Jose was quite popular among his friends, he did not want to spoil the image. “His nature is not easy to guess, so sometimes I like having a sister.”
Fortunately Lidya just nodded in acceptance of that opinion. “Dave sometimes told me about Mr. Jose Argent, and indeed he said Mr. This Argent is absolutely hard to catch.”
“Sure, because he learned to parkur, right?” Maria chuckles.
Lidya laughed, but continued in a soft voice, “Dave called me when he wanted to go with Mr. Argent. He said it was the first time Mr. Argent was interested in current trends such as the Discussion Building, so he would not miss the night. Dave thought it would definitely be exciting to see a debate or discussion from people who are not interested at all with the circumstances around.”
Maria wanted to know where Lidya was going, so she remained silent and listened.
“Dave is a person who keeps his word, especially if he is interested in something. And I can tell you, yesterday she was really interested in what her best friend, Mr. Argent. Can I say ... It is impossible that suddenly he reneged on a promise and just disappeared without cause.”
Maria nodded slowly. “Sure, I think so too. But the police are already moving in to look for him, aren't they? They will find it soon.”
“Yeah, it makes me a little relieved indeed,” Lidya took a breath, made her shoulders go down limp down. “Oh yes, by the way, I heard something that will definitely surprise you.”
“What is it?”
The two of them automatically brought their heads closer together, like they were willing to exchange secret information. When Lidya finished whispering the news she was carrying, Maria gave a startled cry.
“You must not be serious!” he cried with a twinkle in the eye.
“No, no, I heard it myself from friends.” Lidya tried to convince. “You know? To get information about Dave, I traveled here and there. Women are a great source of information, right? We just come to one person and he can definitely mention in detail the latest news. That's why I travel to visit many friends. They can help me find Dave. Kabar L—eh network, why am I even bouncing? Where did it go? Ah, yes, anyway from there I heard this news!”
“Well, we both know what people often talk about,” Maria tries to hold a smile. “If someone sees a bean, in the gossip that person could be talked about is looking at a lion. Such is the power of issue.”
“I don't think so. You're one of the women he was invited to dance with at the party.”
Mary gave a smile, recalling the fragrance of the rose in the house of Sir William. He was also allowed to dance a song with her. Dansanya is very skilled, making her body like floating in the air, it feels as if Sir William has been trained to dance it for hundreds of years so as to memorize each curve of motion that must be done.
“She also dances with others.” Maria shook her head, trying to deny the rumors that started circulating. “There are a lot of people he's been dancing with. After all, such a thing cannot be used as a handle. Men often seduce women, but what makes them fall in love will not be seduced. Sometimes they do, right? It could be one or two dances it does not mean anything to someone.”
Oh, my God, he whispered in his heart. If Sir William really liked me, I would be very lucky! Everyone will look at me with envy!
Although still new to Bjork, Sir William is among the most talked about people, both by women and men. His wealth and expertise in doing everything is always a special topic in between conversations. Maria herself knew that simply having danced once or twice could not prove the truth of Lidya's words, but she enjoyed the gossip as a personal pleasure.
As soon as Lidya came home and Mary had just reached the door of the room to rest, a servant again came to tell her that a guest was looking for her.
“Yes, today I am very tired and do not want to receive any guests,” said Maria honestly. Lunch at the Argent Family home is by no means an activity involving physical activity, but it receives a barrage of questions and cynicism from Marco, plus Jose's sudden, reserved nature, all of this was enough to make him feel tired. Moreover, coupled with the arrival of Lidya who continues to bring complaints if not negative-pitched stories. “Send him back next time. Just apologize to her and say that I've slept.”
“You sure, Miss?” asked his servant with a worried look.
The observant Maria immediately grasped the meaning of that incredulous face. “Yes, of course I'm sure. Why why anyway? Who's coming?” He began to think that Jose might come. But if it was Jose, his servant wouldn't have looked this tense. Maybe Marco.
But what did that guy come for?
“The one who came was Sir William Bannet,” replied his servant solemnly.
which “William Bannet? You mean ... You mean Sir William?” Mary rounded her eyes big.
“Ya, Miss. He I welcome waiting in the living room.”
***
Mary peeked out, from behind the wall, seeing that it was true that the one who had come to see her and was waiting there was the famous Sir William. People say his wealth even exceeds Argent. The way he dressed looked very elegant and fit on his body, as if the clothes he was wearing were specifically designed to be worn by William. No one knew why a first-class person like that man came and lived in a bleak city like Bjork.
After she was done convincing herself that it was indeed Sir William, Mary quickly turned to her room and changed into a more appropriate dress.
“Mother is not home? Aunt Vero is also not at home?” tanyanya while shaking her head, refusing to wear blush. “Why aren't they home when I need them? Well, I have to see him alone. What am I supposed to do?”
His servant, who knew his capacity and also understood that his master was not really asking for an opinion, only gave a sweet smile while helping to brush Maria's hair.
