Me Gustas Tu a.k.a I Love You.

Nolan laughed to himself in the car, remembering Caca's reaction when he said that. Between not knowing the meaning and meaning of the words, or surprised because Nolan suddenly said a language that had never even been heard. But Caca's facial expression was so adorable and made Nolan almost cancel his plan to go home if he did not want to talk to the father.

The car that Nolan was driving began to enter the yard of the house, and sure enough he saw his papa car that was being cleaned and Maman was lined up among other cars.

“New papa dateng?” nolan asked Maman when he got out of the car he was riding in.

“It was about three hours ago, den. Aden from where?”

Nolan glanced at Bugatti who had become one reason to hate the papa. This time, why didn't he sell the car?

“From home temen deket, mang.”

Maman frowned. It's strange that his young master is today. Why do you look so happy? The questions were answered by Maman himself with a headband and a relieved smile.

Nolan continued to pass through the marble streets that would connect his steps towards the terrace of the house. There, she had imagined her papa's face would smile at her, welcome her arrival, and embrace her. At least that's what appears in Nolan's shadow.

He climbed the steps of the stairs as much as five levels with light steps. Then he continued to swing the step towards the door, then pushed it because in the current hour, his household assistant would still not lock it.

Nolan's steps continued to pass through the vast living room and were filled with some expensive items as decorations. Then pass through the empty middle space and still do not find the existence of the papa. Until he stared at his papa's back in the dining room. Sit alone in a dress. Nolan developed a smile and walked over.

He sat opposite to where his father was.

“New to?” asked Hendra in a weak voice and managed to make Nolan braze his net on the face of the papa. Pale, and looks to endure pain.

“Papa hurts?” nolan asked worriedly, while Hendra smiled at his son's voice like this. A light and not cold voice to him. A cheerful voice that he missed so much.

“Ngak. Papa is just tired.”

Nolan nodded in understanding. Obviously, because the journey taken by his father is not only one or two hours.

“Do you want to talk to papa?”

Nolan lowered his gaze as his papa's bead of eyes began to notice him. He was ashamed of his childish attitude all along.

“Nolan, would like to apologize papa.”

Hendra held his breath for a moment as the pain grew even more excruciating as he wanted to laugh happily at his son's sentence.

Hendra stood up, spread his arms wide while smiling warmly to Nolan. “Come, son. Papa misses you.”

No longer a sense of prestige, Nolan just stood up and lunged at his papa body which now hugged him tightly. He embraces Hendra with a strong circle at the waist. Nolan wanted to channel his intense longing.

“Excuse Nolan, papa.”

Hendra smiled again. He will thank Caca after this. He had no idea that Nolan would change this fast just because he knew Caca. Hendra broke Nolan's embrace, then patted his son's wide back with a proud look instead of playing.

“Finally, papa can hug the son of papa pride again.” he said sincerely. Hendra also missed Nolan, his Saturn and Marla. “Come with papa to the room. We chat there.”

Nolan nodded and followed his papa steps towards the room. He was still following in Hendra's footsteps who took him to sit on the edge of the bed. They got back into the conversation there.

“Try you see the photo.” said Hendra made Nolan's attention point towards his index finger directional. “Papa absolutely never changed the position of the photo was from the first time installing it there.”

Nolan knew, because two days ago he went into this room without Hendra's knowledge. Or, Hendra knows because this house has CCTV? Ah, goddamn. Nolan was so embarrassed that it was true that his father had checked the CCTV footage and found himself trespassing. Hopefully not, that's what Nolan said in his heart.

“Only you two are in papa's heart. Nothing else.”

About that, Nolan also already knew the truth. His father is only framed until he unknowingly makes a fatal mistake and makes Leo present to this world. And yes, Nolan forgave that.

“Sorry, papa ever hurt your heart. Sorry too, papa betrayed you both, and disappointed you, also made your mama fall ill and leave you. Sorry, it was papa.”

Nolan could not hear it, then dropped down at Hendra's feet. Put his head on Hendra's lap and hugged Maja's legs.

“Not. Nolan is wrong for never wanting to listen to papa's reasons and further reinforces Nolan's own ego. Forgive Nolan, pa.”

Hendra gently rubbed Nolan's fine mane. He looked at his son who looked like he was holding back tears.

“Ah, okay. Let's stand.” invite Hendra to divert the atmosphere that began to turn sad. Hendra didn't want to see tears drenching his son's cheeks. He wanted to see his son gentleman and not cry.

At first Hendra brought Nolan's shoulder to rise from his position, then took Nolan to walk towards his desk. The only son of his puppet was just paying attention to what the father was doing.

Hendra sat down on a chair, then pulled out one of the drawers on the desk, pulled out a red stopmap and placed it on the table. Right in front of Nolan.

“So long ago papa wanted to give this to you, but there was never a chance because of a misunderstanding that occurred between papa and you all this time.”

Nolan stared straight at the stopmap he had just seen the first time when Hendra's voice again greeted his dragon.

“Papa loves you, more than anyone.”

“Then, how about Leonard?”

Hendra silence. He looked at the stopmap again.

“Papa asks, first read the contents of the letters in the stopmap.”

Without waiting for the minute to turn into a clock, Nolan grabbed the red stopmap and started reading every single sheet inside. An official letter informing him that all assets belong to Hendra, written on behalf of Nolan, himself.

“Papa has the same obligation to Leo, but papa never equates you. Although papa is conscious, Leo is also the son of papa.”

There was a slight sting of pain in Nolan's heart when he realized that Leo was his brother.

“Leo, live alone because his mother abandoned him. While papa who still has responsibility for him, can not stay silent just like that.”

Is correct. Nolan could not deny that, and now can accept it more.

“Pa, why is papa on behalf of all papa assets on behalf of Nolan?”

Hendra squeezed his fingers hard. There was no way she would be honest about her illness, ending up making Nolan worry and feel even more guilty towards her. But Hendra chose the relevant answer. He does not deny that everything on earth will return to Him.

“You are papa's legal son under law and religion. Papa just don't want all papa's assets to fall to others who—”

“I mean Nolan, why is papa doing it this fast? Nolan does not want to be like a papa who can not live freely.” honestly in front of Hendra. Nolan is a typical person to the point and does not want to mince words sweetly. So, he'll talk according to what's inside his head.

Hendra smiled and rubbed one side of Nolan's arm. He could even catch an unease in Nolan's eyes. “If not you, who else, son?”

“Leo.”

Hendra breathed a tired breath. Perhaps this son still needed direction in this matter.

“Leo has no legal rights like you, son. So papa just gave him some small assets that papa has, for him.”

“Nolan wants to live freely.” kekeuh Nolan did not want to be denied.

“So, what do you want now? Tell papa.”

Nolan thought for a moment to make up his mind. Then one idea popped into his head.

“Can ... Leo runs it all, and Nolan just plays behind him?”

Hendra frowned inexhaustibly.

“I mean Nolan, Leo who will be in control of the company, but remain under the supervision of Nolan.”

His father smiled, catching his son's intentions.

“It was too cruel, but papa could not prevent your wish.” break up Hendra in the end. “If you really want to be like that, then you need to talk a lot with leo.”

Well, this is the thing that is most disliked and pushed away by Nolan. Talking four-eyes with Leo is something he doesn't want.

“Can papa talk about that with Leo?”

Hendra raised his shoulders. He disagreed with Nolan's proposal.

“Papa wants you to hold all the assets of papa company. But if you have anything else beyond your thoughts, talk to Leo.” yourself

Nolan was a little disappointed with the answer. But, he'll talk about it with Leo as soon as possible, as Nolan's simple mind goes.

“Papa just want you two to be complementary brothers.” said Hendra gave a speech, because they have a blood bond. Although, there is another fear that disturbs Hendra over Nolan's wishes. The appearance of Tiana may control Leo if Leo is given full power by his son.

“Papa wants you to think once again about your desire to give this papa trust to Leo.” continued Hendra still does not want to remove his eye link from the son. “Think once more, and again the impact of your decision, son. Papa just does not want you to regret at the end if papa is no longer in this world.”

Nolan looked straight at the father when he heard his father's words that made him feel a little uncomfortable.

“If indeed you want to involve Leo, papa is afraid Tiana will return and try to control Leo to master all. Because he thinks Leo also deserves to have what you have. Leo is his son, and Leo is still blood-bound with papa.” He looked deeper into the beautiful bead of the son who seemed to be thinking about his words, then said, “Papa wants you to continue all the struggle and hard work papa all this time, because you are the son of papa's pride. And another reason papa does all this is, all of us or even papa himself never know when will be called to return to Him.”

***

Caca went back to looking on Gugel's page about the meaning of the word Nolan said earlier, to him. He repeated it many times and the answer that appeared on his phone screen remained the same.

Ilove you.

Maddened. Nolan love her? This makes no sense and would not have happened if Nolan knew who he really was.

Caca's anxiety and fear doubled when she felt the necklace hanging from her neck. Again, what if Nolan knew the truth that he was just his papa man?

Caca was heavy. He moved to the right and left because he felt uncomfortable over the situation that was happening.

“Do I have to be honest before things get any further?” caca muttered to himself. He did not know and could no longer find a way out now. Nolan had even expressed feelings for her. “Before she heard it from someone else and it ended badly for me, did I just be honest with her?”

The real question already has that answer, still continues to overshadow Caca's mind. He was afraid that Nolan would do desperate things out of hurt, and Caca did not want that.

It's a hard choice to make, between letting go, or losing forever with a bad image in Nolan's eyes.

“I'll talk about this with Nolan, tomorrow. In school.” []
