My bodyguard is a Handsome Bum
See you later

On the way to the office, Robert who was driving a car seemed to notice his master who was now busy with his gadget through the rearview mirror. There Robert felt that his parents had been in the last few days his mood had always been good, since the incident where the master was taking Miss Lara with his son back to his apartment. As Vander's right-hand man, of course, Robert was happy to see his master always looking as fresh and vibrant as he is now. But in addition, Robert also became curious about the relationship of Vander and Lara, Robert felt the closeness of his master with Lara increasingly seem more unusual. It sparked Robert's curiosity about how far along their current relationship is.

"Robert why do you keep looking at me?" Unexpectedly, Vander turned out to be aware if he was noticed by his personal assistant through the rearview mirror.

"Ma-sorry sir, actually I just wanted to ask you about—"

"What about?"

"Master I wonder, do you like Miss Lara? I mean in a sense..."

"Yes, I like it" Vander replied lightly.

"Ta-but isn't he your secretary?"

"Yes, then why? Is there a ban I can't like my own secretary?"  Reply Vander with his leisure.

"It's not so master, but if you have a relationship that is more than 'just a coworker' with your employees, won't it cause a lot of skewed rumors in the scope of work?"

Vander smiled faintly, "I never forbid any relationship in my company. All my employees are free to want to date or marry their co-workers. It doesn't matter as long as their work stays good, then why are you worried about me?"

"Because you are different, sir, you are the CEO and a figure who is quite well known both among businessmen and outside of it. I'm sure there will be some breaking news in the future if you keep—"

"It's Robert, I'm not a kid anymore. My business to be in a relationship with anyone is none of your business. Besides, Lara and I did a very professional job, outside of work that's another story."

"Yes, sir, I'm sorry."

Robert whose advice was always welcome, only this time felt his advice was not considered just for the sake of a woman. He became increasingly curious, who really is Lara? Why would that woman affect Vander's life like this? I hope that woman really has no other purpose towards master.

"Robert!"

"Yes Sir?"

"You think, in my previous life, was it possible that I'd met Lara?"

"Eh? What do you mean sir?

Vander asked so because in some moments he was with the woman, he felt like there was something familiar that he felt. "You know the term 'De javu'? Yeah, that's how I feel every time I'm with Lara. The smell of his body, his touch, everything was like taking me to a familiar event." Like I've known him for a long time.

"How do you think Robert?"

"I think only the master himself knows the answer. Sometimes feelings and thoughts are out of sync, and they sometimes hold memories stronger than our brain. That's why feelings can't be incorporated into medical studies."

Vander could only half laugh hearing it.

...🍁🍁🍁...

In her room, Lara is seen busy preparing her boss meeting schedule for the next week. Given that tomorrow and the day after Vander will be out of town, Lara will have to rearrange the meeting of all clients for the next two days.

"He's three times busier than I was when I was CEO, hem.it seems like he's a better fit for the job than I am," said Lara who was amazed to see the list of meetings and events Vander as CEO compared to her first. Actually, it's natural, considering that Laizen Group's company scale is much larger than Miracle used to be. "Oh yes Miracle, how is the company doing now huh? Can Jeden handle it? Last year I heard the company was almost liquidated." Lara suddenly felt a bit alone because she had left the company. However, he has no regrets about the decision he made.

"Eh, good morning, Mr. Vader," said Lara, seeing her boss come into the room. Today Lara sees Vander rather differently, the man dressed looking more casual than usual. Today he only wears a plain black shirt with a long grey blazer with black pants. With a tall and sturdy posture according to Lara Vander so it looks like a model who is on the runaway stage. Well I was thinking what the hell!

"How much longer will the pretty lady see me?" Said Vander who suddenly was in front of Lara's desk.

"Ah-anu I... I'm gonna hand this to you." Lara then handed over a document for Vander to sign. Unfortunately, Vander refused because he felt Lara was not polite to his boss because he suddenly offered a job while his boss had not sat down at all.

"Sorry sir," said Lara so embarrassed herself.

The man went straight to his office and asked his secretary to bring him a cup of coffee along with the documents he had to sign.

Shortly after, Lara returns from the pantry with a cup of coffee and a document that Vander has to sign.

"Then I'll excuse myself to go back to my place of work."

"Wait!" Vander held Lara captive and asked her to remain by her side, as long as she kept the document before it was signed.

Standing near Vander without doing anything, makes Lara look awkward.

Meanwhile, through the tail of his eyes Vander glanced at his secretary who was now standing next to him. For Vander Lara looks beautiful wearing a knee-length skirt with a hemisphere on her right, combined with a short-sleeved red shirt that knocks the curves of her beautiful body. Lara also uses a leaf motif scraft on her neck, although it looks beautiful but makes her neckline so somewhat covered. And with his nosiness Vander suddenly pulled the scraft and picked it up.

"Eh? What are you— la-ku-kan?"

The two are now so close to each other. Lara pulls her body away from Vander while holding her neck and has Van return the scraft.

"Sir, here we are at work to stop cheating on me!"

"I don't judge you, your neck is pretty I like it anyway."

"Stop flipping over me sir, you're not afraid of your other subordinates seeing, are you flirting with your staff?"

"Tempting? Hem... Didn't Miss Lara tease me first?"

"I-I never teased you, I— I couldn't possibly tease my own boss."

"Oh yeah?" Vander got up from his seat and stood behind Lara and whispered in her ear. "You didn't flirt with me in person, but in your apartment you said you gave me a chance didn't you? Did you forget?"

"On it— I eghh... Aghs! Sir you—!" Suddenly, Vander gives a kissmark to the woman's neck. Lara immediately protested and was upset. "Why did you do that?"

"As a sign, after all your scraft is useful to cover it up," replied Vander lightly.

"Basic bawdy boss!"

"Oh I like that new nickname, how about we do something a lot more perverted?" Van's speech followed his nosy laugh.

"Master don't fuck around!"

"I don't want to mess around, I just want one of you," teased Vander again. "After two days I'm not around, won't you miss me?" Vander looked up Lara's chin with his long fingers and stared at her intensely.

"Why should I miss you?" He still asks that, you even forget me! You senile husband!

"Come on, I want to go don't take me off with a cranky or upset face. Give me a gift so I can live my days away from you."

"You asked me for a gift, did you give me what Mr Vander?" Lara looked back at her husband and challenged him.

"Miss Lara wants what?" he finished with his heavy voice but soft.

"I want to sit in your chair!"

Vander grinned, he then immediately held his secretary and put her in his seat.

"Vander you!" Lara was shocked by her husband's behavior.

"Well, then what else?" Said the man.

Seeing Vander like this reminds Lara of when he was her bodyguard. Vander used to be very obedient to Lara no matter what order she was going to do. Lara wondered if Vander, who had now forgotten his memories, still had that instinct for him? Lara immediately smiled ignorantly. Let's see if he still wants to obey my will like before?

"Um— because I've been sitting here so that means I'm the boss and you're my subordinate, so kneel before me and praise myself!" Lara's Word.

Unfortunately Vander was silent, suddenly Lara became afraid of making it. Have I gone too far, huh? Maybe he's angry? "Em—, Mr. Vander forget about it anyway, I'm just— Eh?" Lara was immediately shocked to see Vander literally kneeling in front of her and kissing her hand. "Beautiful Miss Lara, I'm waiting for your orders."

Eh? Did he really do it? My God, I-I have to how is this? Why am I so scared? "Master— I'm actually just..."

Vander looked at Lara with a light look. The gaze that he had not seen for a long time in the eyes of the man since returning to this city.

No, I can't help it anymore when it's this way, I really still love this guy so much. Although he was forgetting me, but the way he treated me, the way he looked was still the same, he was my Vander, my husband... Lara touched Vander's face then lowered her head and kissed her lips gently for a while and said softly. "Be careful on the road, I'll wait for you here, Mr. Vander."

Vander smiled, "See you in two days" and they kissed again.

...🍁🍁🍁...

Meanwhile, Emika who today picked up Rey while in a taxi on her way home asked the little man about his plans at that time did it work?

"Oh so? But I guess it's only natural, where does anyone instantly confess love once asked?"

"Yes, anyway."

"How about going forward?"

"Oh yeah, this weekend Uncle Vander promised to buy me an RC aeromodelling plane, and teach me too, and then I'll make progress for them."

"Good plan, then what should I do Rey?"

"Wait away from me, please,"

"okay! Anyway I'm on your side little Rey," said Emika pinching Rey's squash cheek.

"Thank you beautiful aunt Emika!" Rey seemed to be getting impatient the day came.

...🍁🍁🍁...

In Crux, after completing an examination and blood sampling in the lab of Dominic's doctor, Vander decided to go to the riding area he said he missed riding at the time.

"Mr Vander, you seem to have been so excited since you came here? And from the results of the blood check and your blood pressure is very good, is your good-looking master Vander happy?"

Vander turned to Dominic and and grinned, "According to Dominic's doctor?"

"I think it is."

Vander again just smiled and left. "I'll go first!"

"Bah Master!" Reply Dominic. "Hem, I wonder what makes this King of Crux seem so happy?" Dominic looks so curious.

Soon someone knocked on Dominic's room.

"Come in!" Dominic saw who was coming. "Oh Robert, what's wrong?"

"I'm sorry for interrupting your time, doctor."

"No problem, I'm not too busy! What's wrong?"

"Look, I'm here to ask you something about my master."

Dominic scrunched his forehead. "On Vander?"

"Yes, I want to ask. For the four years I served him, is there anything I do not know about my master? Other than the pain of his trauma, is there another secret master about my master? If there is, I hope the doctor will tell me."

Dominic understands what Robert is saying right now. He knew Robert was not a fool and he was also quite sensitive to read the situation to the people closest to him. To be honest, Robert until now did not know that in fact some of his master's memory had been erased four years ago, and who knew it was only Dominic. Of course, Dominic is not without reason to hide it, other than because of the code of ethics between doctors and patients. Dom has promised Vander not to tell anyone that he has asked Dominic to erase his memories of his wife and those related to his wife. It was done by Vander the goal is, so that he will never remember again about the woman he loves. Because Vander thought, the more you don't know about it, the better you eat. But Dominic instead thought that it was ridiculous, he felt that what Vander did was even more suitable to be said as if he was escaping from reality through the path of doctors.

"Huft" Dominic sighed. "Robert, to be honest I don't know if this is right or wrong. But one thing I do believe in, your loyalty to Vander is beyond doubt. Therefore I think breaking a little of my agreement with Vander doesn't matter."

"Doctor mean?" Robert stared confusedly mixed in curiosity.

"Robert actually..." Dominic finally told about the deletion of Vander's memory to his personal assistant.

"Doctor ka-you're not kidding, are you?" Robert looked shocked.

"Sounds crazy, right? But that is how your master is with all his own insanity."

How could there be a person, who deliberately wants to erase the memory of his loved one? Is it not the same as burying oneself in the darkness of life?

"Why is that shock? Didn't I say often, that your master is not like a human being sometimes. He doesn't know that other humans seem to have long chosen to die" Dominic joked.

"But he wanted to die too hard, the Vander was immune to blood, wanted to be bitten by cobras and scorpions even though he could still live. Even he was faced with a hundred samurai as well it seemed ordinary, he was only afraid of one thing..." Vander was only afraid that the person he loved was tormented and languished and died because of him, so he chose the crazy path in a way that no longer wanted to be in touch with his wife.

"Then Mr. Vander's wife where is she?"

"All right, I know the last time the info was, she said she moved abroad."

"Doctor, can you tell me who and what that woman is like?" Tandas Robert's.

"Oh sorry Rob, unfortunately I can no longer break to that extent my promise to my patients."

Didn't she? Robert became increasingly curious and wanted to find out who the wife of Mr. Vander whom he had forgotten was actually.

...🍁🍁🍁...

Lara's house, which was looking busy drawing a dress design to be sent to Lravioletta, suddenly found a phone from an unknown number

"Who is it?" Lara wonders. But without suspicion he immediately raised the call.

"Hello?"

Hello Lara it's me!

"H wait, this voice right...?" Lara tried to remember the voice on the phone that was like no stranger to her.

"Oh yes, Brother Eiji!" Lara looked happy and unexpected.

Eiji: Yeah right, it's me. I called you because I wanted you to know that I'm back from Canada.

Lara: Really? So now that brother is in this town?

Eiji: Yes I just arrived at the airport terminal.

Lara: Oh why didn't you tell me I could pick you up.

Eiji: No, it's already night. I called the driver from my office now to pick me up.

Lara: So is it? Thank goodness, I'm glad to hear you've returned safely.

Eiji : Thank you, um— Lara...

Lara: Yes?

Eiji: A- Where's Rey?

Lara: Too bad, she's asleep.

Eiji: Oh, what a pity, when I miss his voice.

Lara: Next time, maybe next weekend we can meet.

Eiji: Well then, I-um.

Lara: Good night, brother.

...🍁🍁🍁...

"Daddy!" Pekik Eiji who is upset for not daring to say 'i miss you' to Lara.

While waiting to be picked up, Eiji also intends to buy a drink first. And while walking while pushing his luggage, he accidentally ran into a man who had just walked out of the VIP door. The man's aura appears to be very dominant, according to Eiji. Wearing a long black coat and wearing sunglasses, he is seen walking up front with both hands inserted into his pants pocket. The man also followed several other men dressed in black behind him, it seemed like it was his personal aide.

"I seem to have seen that guy? He doesn't seem to be a random person" said the curious Eiji and still kept looking at him from behind.

"My master seems like the man who just saw you continues" said Robert, who has been watching Eiji since.

"Isn't he?" concluded Vander while taking off his sunglasses.
