Getting Married for Lying
167 - Vier's search

Mike drives his car at a moderate speed. Every now and then he glanced and watched Vier who was daydreaming looking out the window.

Vier and Mike are on their way to find Vaya. 

Vier recalls meeting Rian a while ago before embarking on a journey to find himself where Vaya is.

"Why did Vaya forbid you to tell her whereabouts?" ask Vier to Rian.

Rian lowered his head, his tongue felt stiff and stiff to talk about where Vaya was. Vaya had warned Rian not to tell him of his whereabouts. The goal is to protect Vaya and her family.

"Sir Vaya forbids me" replied Rian.

"What is the purpose of Vaya forbidding you, Rian?" ask Vier again.

"Sister Vaya just wants to protect our family" Rian replied.

"Protect your family from whom?" ask Vier.

"From those who want to do evil to our family, that's all, Brother Vier," replied Rian.

Vier breathed a heavy sigh. He must have wondered why Vaya got that far by removing his tracks?

Vier clenched his hands tightly, his jaw tightening holding back his sense of regret.

"Rian, did Vaya remarry another man so he deliberately disappeared like this?" ask Vier.

"Isn't it just Vier's sister who's remarried?" Rian asked back.

"What?! I'm getting married again?!" Vier was flabbergasted and then threw his gaze at Mike.

"Rian, it's just a misunderstanding. Mr. Vier is unlikely to remarry because he is still tied to a valid marriage with Ms. Vaya" Mike explained to Rian.

Rian was still staring at Vier and Mike with a skeptical look.

"I'm sorry, Brother, actually I don't want to interfere in the affairs between Kak Vaya and Kak Vier. It's just that I've been asked by Brother Vaya like that," Rian said.

Vier and Mike looked at each other. Vier again breathed a heavy sigh. What a typical Vaya who is so stubborn.

"Alright, Rian. I understand and I appreciate Vaya's decision. It's just, I'm asking you personally."

"It's time I came and picked up Vaya. I really can't hold back much longer" Vier said.

Vier was still staring straight at Rian. He tries to control his anger and emotions.

"If you really don't want to tell me where Vaya is. Then I'll look for Vaya in my own way" Vier gave a slight threat to his calm tone.

"That's right, for me, it's fine to deploy more than ten battalions or at least ten mercenary platoons to search for Bu Vaya" Mike added.

Rian was stunned to hear two men who were currently clearly seen threatening him. It comes to Rian's mind when Vaya is raided by an army that horrendous the social media universe.

Rian became doubtful, what if Vaya was angry because Rian had leaked where her brother was?

"Hmm, anu, Brother Vier," said Rian hesitantly.

"Sister Vier, would you know how Vaya's sister would have been if she had been angry if I had told Sister Vier where Vaya was?" said Rian.

Vier and Mike were still focusing their attention on Rian.

"How about I tell Brother Vier just how it's going?" Rian offers.

...*****...

That's what was said by Rian so that Vier and Mike finally traveled to find Vaya. 

The long and long journey breaks through mountain and forest trails, entering remote areas far from the hustle and bustle of the urban frenzy.

They even had a chance to stay over before resuming the journey that was really far away, breaking through the endless wilderness.

The weather began to be unfriendly because the rain that flushed so heavy like a storm made Mike and Vier have to find the nearest stopover they met.

Mike pulled over the car he was driving at a small stall on the side of the road. The small stall was closed but for Mike what was the harm in trying to stop at that place. 

...*****...

"We don't even know if there's a place to stop by, sir, so I think this is our only chance to rest. Besides, there's only a little boy standing guard at the shop."

Mike explains to Vier as soon as he returns after a very tough negotiation with the little boy waiting for the stall.

"Hmm so yes," said Vier sourly.

Mike nodded even though he knew that Vier was not willing to stop by. Vier just wants to find Vaya as soon as possible.

But after various considerations, Vier finally got out of the car and entered the small shop.

His eyes immediately fixated on the little boy who was putting on such a defensive stance.

The little boy even confiscated Mike's identity card and smart device as a guarantee that Vier and Mike were not the ones who wanted to do evil.

"What a clever boy," commented Vier.

"So, Mr. Mike and Mr. Vier, what do you want to drink? A tea? Coffee?" ask Vero.

"Do you have any drinks other than tea and coffee?" ask Mike.

"Hmm, there's milk and also bottled juice" Vero replied. "And energy drinks."

Mike and Vier looked at each other again.

"Then just pack juice," said Mike.

Vier was still rolling his gaze around the simple stall. A wooden building that seems to have stood for so long.

"Oh yeah, Vero, by the way, why are you alone like this? Where are your parents?" ask Vier.

Vero came up with a tray containing two boxes of bottled juice and placed it on the table.

"My parents are not home" replied Vero.

"Where are your parents? It's outrageous to leave a child alone like this. It's like child neglect!" hatch Vier.

"Children's delivery?" ask Vero.

"Yes, your parents could be in jail for abandoning a child like this" Vier said.

"What's? Jail?" asked Vero with his big round eyes.

"But prison is a place of bad people! My mother's not a bad person!" said Vero.

"If your mother wasn't a bad person, why would she leave you alone like this?" ask Vier.

"My mom didn't leave me! My mom just went to the market! I'll be back too!" sahut Vero's.

"Oh, then what about your father?" ask Vier.

"My father does not exist" replied Vero.

Vero's expression looked gloomy.

"Your father doesn't exist? Where's your dad?" ask Mike.

"Do not know! My mother said my father worked, but until now I never even knew who my father was. I think my mother lied, maybe I didn't have a father, actually" Vero replied.

Vier and Mike looked at each other again. 

"Vero, you can't possibly not have a father. You must have had a father, but you may have been abandoned by your father" said Vier.

"Relied my father?" ask Vero.

"Yes! That's for sure! Your father must have been a very bad man!" vier Sahut.

"That means that what should go to jail is my father! Is that right, right?!" said Vero.

"Hmm, yes, it should be like that" Vier said lightly.

"Well, then, I'll ask my mother to go to jail!" said Vero.

"Yes! I think that's a great idea!" Vier grinned.

"Sir Vier, I don't think that's a good idea" Mike whispered. "Vero doesn't even know who his father is, doesn't that mean, Vero's mother is definitely not a good woman?"

"No, Mike, I see great potential in Vero. Vero is a very clever boy. I don't know why he reminds me of when I was a kid" Vier whispered.

"Hmm, yeah, by the way Vero does look like your mini version, anyway" Mike said.

"Mike, don't make it up! I'm not the man who started sowing seeds! Especially to the interior like this! Do you think I want to fuck a forest guy? Huh!" grunt Vier with the lowest voice possible.

"Oh yeah Mike, please get me a change of clothes. My clothes are damp and uncomfortable" Vier said.

"All right, sir" said Mike.

"Vero, where's the toilet, by the way?" ask Vier.

"The toilet is near the stairs, Mr. Vier," replied Vero.

Vier immediately enters the toilet while Mike returns outside to the car he parked next to the house.

...*****...

Meanwhile, Vaya had just dropped off her luggage from the car she was riding in. The rain made Vaya's body shiver.

"Vero!" exclaim Vaya as soon as entering the house.

Vaya immediately went to the toilet and opened the toilet door.

"Yahoo!" shout Vaya.
