H-12: CATCH
HC - 18

Xander and Royce sat next to each other in the waiting room chair. His mother and sister Royce were also there. They sit in different chairs.

"Did your family know about your work?" Xander's Whispe.

"No, this work must be kept secret from anyone, because it's our code of conduct" Royce replied quietly.

"Are you not working?" Ask Xander.

"My computer was hacked, I can't do anything. IT people are taking care of it. This must be Vionna's. All our data is stolen and lost. Because of that, Mr. Rudi deactivated all members so that there was no communication error," Royce replied.

"He's really dangerous" Xander murmured.

"Do you like Gitta?" Suddenly asked Royce.

Xander was surprised by the impromptu question from his senior. Both of her cheeks were flushed and she was misbehaving.

Royce laughs. Although Xander did not reply, he already knew through the man's attitude.

"Maybe I'm not too close to Gitta, but I know her well enough. She's a little bar-bar girl, but she's nice. His father's harsh treatment left Gitta with deep wounds, especially yesterday Devan sided with Vionna, it would make his heart even more broken. I hope you can take good care of him" Royce said.

"But how do you know I like Gitta?" Ask Xander curiously.

Royce shifted her eyes. "You should turn off your communication device before kissing a girl."

Xander's frozen. He remembers a time in hiding when he kissed Gitta. Given the incident his face was getting red like a boiled crab. So, the communication device is still on. Royce automatically hears what they're doing.

"If Gitta doesn't like you, she won't return your kiss" Royce said innocently.

"Yes too, anyway." Xander leaned his back against the chair.

The doctor came out of the room. Royce's mother approached the doctor. "How's he doing, Doc?"

"The patient had quite serious burns on his body especially his arm. We'll have an operation soon. Are you on his family's side?" The doctor answers with a question.

Royce and his mother looked at each other. They were not Gitta's family, but they were willing to take responsibility for Gitta's safety. His mother said, "Gitta lives a kara, we'll take care of everything."

"You're not his family?" Ask Doctor.

"We're his neighbors."

The doctor seemed to think.

Xander approached the doctor. "I'm his family, we're both San family. I'll take care of everything."

"Alright, come with me." Doctor passes. Xander followed him while nodding his head at Royce. Royce did the same.

Royce's mother breathed a sigh of relief. "Lucky there's that guy, is he her boyfriend?"

Royce seemed to think. "Emm, yeah."

"Maybe they broke up" Royce said.

Suddenly the communication tool is connected to IT who takes care of his computer. "Miss Roycelyn, the computer has been restored and accessed. There's a signal coming in."

"Mother, I have to leave immediately" said Royce.

"Where are you going, brother? Brother Gitta is being critical" asked his sister.

"My boss will be angry if I leave the store too long. I'm picking Gitta, yeah." Royce immediately left for ARN headquarters.

Rafa is confused to see Royce wearing a home outfit. The girl sat beside Rafa. Royce suppressed that signal that suddenly appeared. It turns out that the red dot is the location.

"Whose location is this? Who sent it?" Mumbled Royce.

Rafa seems confused too. "Someone planted a tracking device and sent it to our system. He seems to be our spy."

"But, Mr. Rudi is disabling all members, because our broken system does not allow for their mission" Royce said.

Suddenly Royce's communication device is connected to someone. Both of his eyes widened to hear the voice of the man from across there.

"It's me, Devan. Keep track of my whereabouts, I can't give you too much information, because Vionna tightens security. There's no other choice but to be a double spy" Devan said, looking serious about fiddling with computers.

"I understand" replied Royce.

"The information they stole I'm going to return, but I can't erase it here" Devan said.

"Well, I'll lock your tracker, stay calm and do as directed" Royce said.

"No, I can't do as instructed. I have to improvise. Vionna is an unpredictable person" Devan said.  At the end of the sentence, communication was interrupted.

"All the data has been recovered, he really returned the lost data" Rafa said.

Royce tracked down Devan's location. Both eyes widened to see Devan was in Indonesia.

"Sir Rudi." Royce immediately got up from her seat and looked for Rudi.

Rudi who was talking with Andriawan Septo, the chairman of the AKPT. The two men turned to look at Royce who came suddenly.

"Sorry to interrupt, but Devan's location has been found and he's in Indonesia."

Hearing Royce's words, Rudi was very surprised. "What exactly happened?"
