Jovian Alton (Life-Life Bodyguard)
Act Carefully

"I'm sorry this has to happen to us. If only I had not spoken carelessly to Kiana, and lowered my ego a bit. Maybe the show has been completed without having to jump around without certainty like this! As Kiana's parents, I apologize profusely, coming all the way from Pangalengan here, but it all feels in vain because I don't know when Kiana will return here."

Danu's gaze straight ahead, looking at the lush trees growing in his backyard, then turned his head, looking at Jonathan who was sitting right in the side chair.

The two middle-aged men stared at each other in silence for a short while. Until finally Jonathan was heard sighing, showing his faint smile, like he was throwing away disappointment and fear. How not, his favorite son-in-law is now going far, as if he wants to punish everyone.

"Sir Danu? I also want to apologize. It doesn't seem to be here too long! There is a tea garden that I have to take care of, .. maybe for the vegetable garden Maminya Jovian is still a bit relaxed because it is not yet time to harvest. But not with the tea garden, the workers already need me, indeed this should be all Jovian's work because I have given this responsibility to him. But the current state of Jovian is not possible." Jonathan said, revealing a faint soothing smile.

"Can't stay here until we can actually decide how the show goes? Yes even though it has been confirmed that the reception will be completely postponed, or even canceled. Because Kiana had already expressed her intentions to Jovian." Danu.

He recalled every word Jovian said, after which the man was able to meet his wife.

"We'll see, sir. Now we give them both time, .. We also have to understand Kiana's feelings. Perhaps the one not experiencing will speak that Kiana's attitude is excessive. But actually being Kiana was very heavy."

Again Jonathan tried to understand his daughter-in-law's feelings. He was indeed disappointed that the event he had been waiting for all this time would just cancel. But Jonathan and Leni's current hope is not that. The amount of loss is certainly not small, but money can be sought. What is worrying at the moment is the relationship between Jovian and Kiana that cannot be saved.

Danu crumpled her back on the back of the chair. Looking up, looking up at the beautiful afternoon sky. There are small clouds that move quickly because of the wind.

His guilt grew even greater, as did his regret this time around. How not, he actually scratched the inner wound on his daughter, just because he did not want to be labeled as incompetent to educate the child. But now he understands! However Kiana, whatever the words of the people out there, would never erase the fact if Kiana was her biological daughter. Good or bad behavior of the woman, she is still her daughter who can not be changed in any way.

"So Mr Jonathan really wants to go home?" Danu.

"Yes, maybe I'll come back after Kiana gets home. Or Mr and Ms. Herlin alone who was there, as long as our children married Mr. Danu has not visited our residence in Pangalengan. There it's cold, Mr and Ms. Herlin must be at home." Jonathan smiled.

Danu answered the words from his iron with a nod.

"Maybe this show wasn't really foiled just like that. The show will still run, maybe just switch events! From the wedding reception to the sharing event, .. eat with the Orphans.

just." Danu.

"That's better, sir. What about the invitation? Or the brothers Mr Danu?"

"Me and her Mama Kiana who will preach it later. Mr. Jonathan take it easy!"

Jonathan smiled.

"We can have another time if Kiana's condition has improved. Money can also be found, now we just have to wait patiently for Kiana to calm down."

"I'm sorry I've been a bad Papa. Though we were very close, then tenuous, then after with Jovian we came back close, and now even more tenuous until Kiana went far, and complained to her Lord about this matter." Danu vented his heart.

Danu's voice sounded soft. The sad face of the man continued to show, until some people around him realized that he was not okay. More precisely drowning from guilt for having made his relationship with Kiana even more distant.

Even Danu continued to entrust every job to Denis, because this time he really could not focus. Other than thinking about Kiana's state, and their relationship after this.

"Tomorrow will you take Mami and Papi to Pangalengan? Before flying back to Holland?"

Jovian sat on the sofa of the living room of the Ilyas residence. Where Adline, Axel and Javier still spend time there.

"Yes, I can't bear to see him who is still down like this go driving away. Not good either, fear you daydream all the way, and it's dangerous!" Said the Brother.

Jovian nodded, then she turned her eyes to Adline, who was currently sitting right next to her husband. While Axel was cool with his iPad in the living room with both Adline's parents. They continue to accompany Axel to play, especially after knowing that his parents will bring Axel back to the Netherlands there.

"May I ask you something? Just this once please help me convince something." Jovian looked at his brother-in-law's face.

Adline turned his head, looking at Javier as if he was confirming something.

"Keep you asking Eva to come? Not here, but maybe outside the house. Either cafe or restaurant is up!" Jovian said again.

Hearing that Javier looked surprised. Even his eyes were rounded with a look of disbelief.

"You crazy? Isn't it enough to make Adline feel guilty to Kiana?"

"I don't want Kiana to hate me more, Jo! Although in reality I didn't mean it. But the circumstances now clearly made me feel bad for Kiana as well as Mami and Papi."

Jovian shook his head.

"It's for the good of all of us. One by one I'll open up what he's doing right now."

"meaning?" The husband and wife reacted together.

"Far before that incident. Looks like Eva's done a lot." Jovian said with strong conviction.

However, Javier still did not understand, until the man just silently looked at his sister's face with a strange look.

"Again." Jovian begged a little.

"I have to how? I mean what do you want to do?" Adline reacts immediately.

"Just get a tattoo checked. Under the back of the left ear." Jovian.

"Wait!"

"Why do you want to know? Tell the core of the problem so that we are not wrong again in this matter. Enough Kiana, don't hurt anyone else!" He commemorates.

Jovian took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, and began to tell everything in his mind slowly. From the case of the photo on the notice board, the existence of Eva in Pangalengan without Jovian knowing, then the incident one Week ago, and the changes that Eva experienced that seemed to be trying to resemble Kiana.

Some might call it a coincidence. It's just that this is too suspicious, and everything that has happened, if remembered again is always connected to each other.

"You sure?" Javier asked after hearing the explanation from his sister.

Jovian.

"At least after this I was able to dispel him, and there were plenty of reasons for him not to come any closer. Whatever reason! Either she's coming because you're her best friend, or whatever it is, .. 'cause I don't want to see Eva anymore. If I could just throw him in jail!" Jovian.

"Jail?"

Adline and Javier gasp.

"He's already harmed me and Kiana. Our relationship is really on the edge. No matter how clever she was when Kiana was brutal, but now I know Kiana wouldn't have done it if not Eva had provoked her."

"The problem is not that easy. If you say that there is a witness. Was that witness enough to report Eva on the charge of unsavory actions? And for the trouble here? We don't have any evidence either, so if Eva did, we can only get her to back off and back away, not to put her in jail." Javier looked at his sister closely.

Worry was clearly visible in the dark bead of the handsome man. How not, Jovian starts a blunder, and wants to justify any means that would obviously create new problems if Jovian did not carefully do so.

"really? I'm sure I can put Eva in jail if she's really the mastermind of everything." Jovian smiled obliquely.

Javier sighed.

"Nothing to use money and what you can just for a moment's satisfaction. Knowing if Eva's wrong is good, because we can be careful after this!"

"No!" Jovian shook his head, with eyes that looked so sharp. The flash of anger was clearly visible, and it seemed like what Jovian had said this time was not a joke.

"If it can. Then I'll use what I can and I have. She really made my relationship with Kiana on the edge, and Eva had to pay a lot for what she did to me as well as Kiana." He seems very serious.

Adline exhaled roughly, then leaned back on the back of the sofa.

"I'm afraid it's getting more complicated, Jo!" Adline.

"Not going to."

"You sure? Even if you can put Eva in jail, .. It looks like On Erik won't stay put." Adline said again.

It made Jovian speechless immediately.

"Remember! He used to hate you so much. I don't think the problem will be solved if you're able to get Eva behind bars."

"Then what should I do? Just silence? Has he done a lot of crazy things?"

"We just need to prove it. Urge until she admits it all, .. Eva must be ashamed, and that's enough to make her leave without seeing you again." Javier.

"You don't support me?!"

"It's not a matter of support or not, Jo! By doing what you want, will not stop the problem, it will arise new problems. If you want, now you just need to urge Eva to admit everything like what you explained earlier. Whatever he did until the end had a big impact like now. After that focus on fixing your relationship with Kiana, don't waste a lot of time on Eva just because you want to prove her guilty, and put her in jail." Javier tried to make his brother understand.

It's a little difficult, but he'll keep trying.

Jovian was silent.

"If it only helps you to convince Eva or not, I can. But to get Eva to go to jail I don't want to, it's not a matter of defending her because Eva was a close friend of mine a long time ago, but it's going to get complicated. I know how Om Erik is, and I don't want you guys to stumble over a new problem even more complicated than it is now. Kasian Mami and Papi, Jo! The current events have made us feel bad, thinking every night, then what if this problem happens more and more strange?" Adline tries to express what is on his mind.

In addition to feeling guilty, she was also worried about the health of her two in-laws. Jonathan and Leni aren't young anymore, and anything can happen at any time.

"Oh I won't let Om Erik go back to doing bad things to Papi and Mami. Even if they just attack the feelings of both." Inner Adline spoke.

"Alright, I won't act recklessly. But just this time please help me, so that everything becomes very easy. Kiana's departure has made me feel not okay. So let me finish this before Kiana gets home." Jovian's face looks clear.

Adline looked at her husband back. Then he looked at Jovian and nodded his head after seeing Javier smile, which meant that Javier gave permission to help Jovian solve one problem he was having.

"Later in the afternoon I'll ask to meet. But promise me not to make things more complicated." Adline said, he was also a little begging.

"will not. I will listen to the proposal of the two of you, .. Anyway I have to be careful, which I face is not only Eva right? Papa too!" Jovian smiles.

"Okay, I hope everything opens soon. Then your problem with Kiana is over." Said Javier, who immediately got the nod from Jovian.
