Handsome Detective
The Part 73
Arvan picks up a handkerchief deliberately hidden under a flower pot. With the gloves that he had prepared, Arvan immediately put it on and picked up the handkerchief and put it in plastic to be used as evidence.
" It seems like just a child's game." muttered Arvan as she smiled her smile.
" There's nothing here, sir." said Adam.
" Find it properly." - William.
Damian, Erick and Melani appear to be watching their investigation. Their faces looked calm despite the sadness in their eyes.
Melani approaches Arvan who is a little away from the others. With a slight hesitation the woman spoke softly to Arvan.
" Mister, have you found anything here yet...?" ask Melani.
" No, Miss. But in a moment I will definitely be able to catch Mrs Anderson's killer." replied Arvan.
" There's actually something I want to talk to you about, can we meet somewhere else...? I don't want anyone to know..."
" What's your job, Miss...?"
" Mmmm.I'm still in college, sir..."
" Come to Sebastian corp. the day after, tell the receptionist you want to meet Sera. Tell me you're his friend and there's an appointment. We'll meet there..."
" good, Sir. Thanks..."
Melani immediately sat back next to her two brothers who had been staring at her sharply.
" Are you deliberately flirting with that guy for support...?" cycad Erick.
" It's none of your business, I never asked for your opinion.."sahut Melani indifferently.
" Once, stop your debate. Soon we'll find out who killed Mom. I won't let the man who killed my mother live in peace." Damian growled.
" It's just between the three of us, brother. Didn't you really kill mommy...?" melani.
" Are you accusing me of killing the man who gave birth to me...?!" hardik Erick's.
" Oh, let's entrust this case to them. Let's see who the real culprit is...!" damian.
Finished researching the whole scene, William left the house. They immediately returned to Sebastian's residence.

" Papa...!" shouted Raka who was waiting for Arvan's arrival on the porch of the house.
" Hey... papa's son, why are you outside...?" sahut Arvan's.
" Papa promised we'd walk..."
" Yes, papa change clothes first huh...?"
" Snap ya, pa...?"
" Yes, where's mama...?"
" It's in the room..."
" Yes, you wait here..."
Arvan leaves Raka who is playing her phone in the long chair while lying down.
" Hey... fun playing by yourself, boy.." said William.
" Hmmm... Uncle didn't bring Monika's brother here..."
" Monika is playing at the Mall with her mommy..."
Adam approached William to ask for his next assignment on his day off.
" Sir, is there still work to be done...?" ask Adam.
" Just ask your boss, I have to go now." William said.
" Huft.. fate - fate, why is my fate like this." murmured Adam.
" Uncle, follow Raka just walk.." suggested Raka.
" No, thank you.." declined Adam.
Before long Arvan and Erina came out of the house in neat clothes. They were ready to go for a walk around the city.
" Adam, you're still here...?" ask Erina.
" Mmm.. I'm waiting for a task from you, Miss.." replied Adam firmly.
" Go, it's a holiday." said Erina.
" Saw_...!" prevent Arvan.
" Yes, Mr...?"
" Yes, Sir..."
Adam followed his master's orders and took the car keys inside the house. It turned out that his master was more complicated than his boss.
" Sister, why bring Adam...?" ask Erina.
" It's good for the driver, I'm lazy. Let someone help you take care of Raka." replied Arvan grinned.
" You're outrageous, set aside a day off..."
" We're taking her on vacation, too, baby..." Arvan grabbed the waist of the wife to their body without distance.
" I. release your hands!" Erina patted Arvan's arm hard.
" Auwww.. sick, baby.." cried Arvan.
" Therefore, don't be weird - weird...!" murmur Erina.
After everyone got into the car, Adam immediately ran it through the streets of the city.
" Pa, we're going to the yuk playground. Let Raka get used to children's toys, not playing gadgets.." Erina asked.
" May as well.." said Arvan.
Arvan asks Adam to find the nearest children's playground while eating lunch at the Mall. Arriving at the destination, Erina immediately pulled Raka's hand to get into the rides of children's games.
Raka immediately put on a flat face so seeing many children her age. Raka retreated slowly because she did not like being in such a place.
" Eits.... Where are you going, baby...?" Erina grabbed the collar of Raka's shirt intending to run away.
" Mmm. That's it, Ma... Raka wants to come with Uncle Adam.." replied Raka nyengir.
" Already, you're here to play as much. Mama will wait for you here...?"
" But, Ma... Raka doesn't like it here." whine Raka.
" Try first, Raka! Mama will accompany you here..."
" Raka doesn't want to be here, Ma...!"
Raka looked angry and came out of the play area. Raka immediately embraced her father who was sitting with Adam.
" Dear, why are you...?" asked Arvan worried to see the look on his son's flat face.
" Raka, what happened...? Mama where...?" ask Arvan again.
" Raka wants to go home, pa...!" raka shouted with reddened eyes.
" Oh my God, what really happened...?" inner Arvan.
" Dam, you take Raka to the car first. I'll find Erina." Arvan ordered.
" Okay, sir." replied Adam.
Adam carried Raka to his car in the parking lot. Seeing the face of Raka who looks angry, Adam took the initiative to invite Raka to buy ice cream at the store not far from the parking lot.
Meanwhile inside, Arvan searches for the whereabouts of Erina who has yet to come out of the playground. As Arvan walked into the room, he saw his wife sitting in the corner of the room alone.
" Dear, what's wrong with you? Did something happen...?" asked Arvan in panic.
Erina looked at the laughing children playing with her parents. His heart was so sick to see his son who did not want to interact with others. Erina blames herself for not being able to give more affection to her child so Raka behaves like an adult at the age of a toddler. If Erina used to take good care of Raka, accompanying her growth period every second maybe Raka could be a normal child like the others.
" I'm guilty of her, I can't be a good mother to her." - Erina wailing with unstoppable tears.
" Dear, don't talk like that. You are a strong mother and also the best mother for Raka. Tell me what really happened...?" Arvan held his wife tightly.
" I'm a bad mother to Raka, she's like this because of me. All this time I didn't give enough affection to Raka..."
" No, sweetheart. You're not wrong, don't blame yourself like this..."
" But, sis... none of this is my fault." groaned Erina.
" Take it easy, baby. We can definitely face this together. Raka's a good boy, I'm sure he can change. We're gonna start over again, start the story of the three of us as a happy little family..."
" Raka is very angry with me because I brought her to this place. Maybe because this was the first time he had set foot in a place like this. If I hadn't spent my time at the office and college, Raka would have been happier..." Erina was crying bitterly.
" That's it, Raka must understand you're doing this for Raka as well. If anyone's to blame, it's me. I was not beside you when you fought to keep Raka in your womb and also when you risked your life to give birth to her. Nor was I there when the child needed the attention and affection of a father like any other. I'm sorry, Erina, I'm the one who's responsible for your suffering..."
Arvan takes Erina out of the Mall following Adam and Raka. It seems like Arvan has to stay here for a while to accompany Raka and Erina until they can calm down.
