Rihan is going to France today. The plan is to leave at 10 a.m. Everyone has packed their own stuff.
Before leaving, Rihan was reminded of his best friend Phiranita. Rihan finally decided to contact his best friend, just saying goodbye before going home. Picking up her phone, Rihan then contacted Phiranita.
Tut's..
Connected calls.
"Hello, Han! I miss..." Phiranita's voice sounded very excited.
"How are you doing?"
"I'm good. You don't want to visit me anymore?"
"If there is time. Today I will return to France. After that, back to Indonesia. I just want to tell you."
"Huh? going home today? Very quickly, when we only met once," Phiranita's voice sounded sad.
"Yes. We'll see you again if you're cured. I hung up. See you soon,"
"Yes, Han. See you soon."
The call ended.
At Neo's apartment, Phiranita now stares sadly at her phone after the call with Rihan ends. Neo who happened to have not yet left for the company had a glance at his sister.
"What's wrong with you, honey?" Tanya Neo approached Phiranita.
"Ehan's coming home to France today, brother." Phiranita answered and put on a pouting face.
"Rey's coming home today?" Repeated Neo and retorted nod by Phiranita.
"Why didn't he call me to leave?" Inner Neo was a little upset.
"Sister Neo why?" Phiranita asked who saw Neo's changed expression.
"none. I went to the office, yeah. If you're cured, we'll visit Rei." Reply Neo stroking Phiranita's head.
"Good Brother. Be careful on the road,"
"Yes." Yeah."
Neo after getting into the car, somehow the mood was bad this morning. Sighing a little Neo then took his phone, pressed on someone's contact and brought it closer to his ear.
"Today you're home?" Ask Neo after the call is answered.
"Hm."
"Why not tell me?" Neo asked annoyedly.
"For what?"
Silent...
Neo suddenly did not know what to say. Also true. Why was she upset that Rihan wasn't saying goodbye to her?
"Eum. Doesn't that mean you're against me?" Neo's voice was slow. Rihan across there frowned.
"So why did Brother Neo call me?"
"none. Just wanted to say that I'll see you later."
"Hm."
Silent...
Usually if there is nothing to talk about, Rihan will close the call first. In fact this is not. Neo is also waiting for Rihan to disconnect the call first.
"Sister?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Can you give me the report of Logan's investigation?"
"I think he wants to say something important to me. It's just this..." Inner Neo was a little disappointed.
"Yes. I'll send it to you."
"Hm."
Call ended. Of course Rihan closed it first.
"Why did I get so weird after meeting that boy?" Neo murmured inwardly after that start the car engine and go from there.

"Where's Beatrix?" Rihan asked Alen who was helping to tidy up his hair.
"Beatrix is in her apartment. He's coming with us to France, Miss?" Ask Alen.
"No! Let him be with Mentra. Tell him to go straight to Indonesia if we're back there."
"Ready, Miss."
"I just sent Logan's investigation into the man who tried to poison me into your Emma. Don't forget to investigate again." Rihan said as he looked at Alen through the mirror reflection in front of him.
"Good, Miss."
"We may be in France not long. So, take advantage of that short time to get rid of Rine as soon as possible."
"Ready Miss."
"Hm."
...
Rihan and the others have now arrived in France. Each of them immediately cleaned up because it was soon time for dinner.
Rihan after finishing his bath and changing clothes assisted by Alen, now just standing on the balcony of his room staring at the shady trees growing in the courtyard of the mansion. Rihan will come down to eat if Alen has already called him.
Until Rihan turned his gaze to the right, precisely the balcony of the next room. There was Rine who was sitting relaxed while wearing scrubs all over her body. Using only a tank top and thigh-length shorts. What a look that makes Rihan disgusted.
"He always tested my patience" Inner Rihan stared flatly at Rine.
"You're just a guy who's definitely going to be hooked on a pass as good as this. Pretending to reject me, huh?" Rine said inwardly then smiled cunningly as this was indeed her plan to tease Rihan.
"Hi sister-in-law, what are you doing there? Sorry, I don't know if you're there." Rine pretended to cover her body with the bath coat that was beside her.
"As a girl, isn't it very impolite to dress like that?" Said Rihan flat.
"I thought it was just me and nobody saw me, so..."
Rihan just looked at Rine flatly then immediately turned around and walked into her room.
"You won't be able to get away from me just like that" Rine said and drank a glass of wine provided there.
...
"Sister..."
"What's wrong? You need anything?" Avhin asked after turning around and looked at Rihan.
"I want to talk to Avhin's brother. Just the two." Said Rihan when he saw the gelagat Rine who wanted to come too.
"Wait a minute, honey... I'll talk to Rei." The Avhin slowly took off Rine's hand which was holding his arm.
"Don't take it long."
"Yes." Yeah."
"Come on! Where are we talking?" Avhin asked after holding Rihan's shoulder.
"In my room."
"okay."
Arriving at the room, Rihan immediately activated soundproof mode to keep their conversation from being heard by others. Especially Rine.
"So what do you want to say?" Avhin asked after sitting on one of the sofas in Rihan's room.
"Sir Avhin likes Rine?" Ask Rihan to the point.
"Yes. In the lover of the sister, obviously the sister likes him. Why why?"
"Aren't you sure of my feelings?"
"Yes. What's the matter, actually?" Avhin asked confused. Rihan is not usually like this.
"I'd like to hear your sister's opinion of that brother's lover."
"She's a kind girl. A very innocent girl that you once knew. He is funny, he likes to help people who are in trouble. She always dressed modestly even though her sister had bought her a lot of nice and expensive clothes. Why are you asking?"
"How far has Avhin's brother felt about him?"
"Far France to New York." Canda Avhin then chuckled. Rarely can he joke with his beloved sister.
"I'm serious, Brother."
"If you're told to marry her now, you're ready."
"It's that far, yeah." Rihan's mind then sighed softly. If it had gotten that far, it would have been hard to ask Avhin to take off Rine. He has to do something.
"Aren't you sure how big brother feels?" Rihan asked back.
"Yes." Yeah."
"It's not that he's helping you, is it?"
"You know, brother isn't that kind of person."
"I knew. But for example, Avhin's lover only pretends to like his brother. The nature that you've seen all this time is not like that. What's your brother gonna do?"
"you mean? I don't understand,"
"Jawab my question, brother."
"Sister will be forced to let go. Let her be happy with the person she loves" Rihan only replied with a nod.
"But big brother is sure, Rine is not such a girl." The avhin added confidently.
"Hm. I just want to know what Avhin's feeling is."
"Because you already know, then brother will return."
"Yes." Yeah."
Avhin's exit from Rihan's room, the man was already awaited by Rine at the door of his room.
"What are you talking about with sister-in-law?" Ask Rine curiously.
"Just a matter of work" answered Avhin and opened the door to his room.
"Not talk about me?" Rine started to guess.
"No, Honey. Just a job."
"All right."
"You want to go inside?" Soft Avhin rose.
"No, Honey. I'm tired, I want to go to bed." Reject Rine with her sweet smile.
"OKAY. Have a good night, my dear... Sweet dream!" Avhin's voice peeps dear Rine's forehead.
"Yes. You too." Rine replied with a smile then turned around and headed for her room.

"Miss, I have something to say." Alen just walked into Rihan's room with a little fuss.
"Say."
"It turns out the identity we got about the girl is fake, Miss."
"Then?"
"After re-investigating, Rine's identity actually belonged to someone else who had died. He is not from that village either. He was just a newcomer a few years ago there.
And also, the people we asked about Rine back then were people who turned out to be paid by someone to lie about the girl's behavior all along.
According to the grandfather I asked, Rine's life there was just ordinary. He did live alone but not too close to the citizens there. Every month the girl will get a package delivery no matter what it is. The grandfather said, there are as many as 5 big boxes always come every month with trucks that carry them,"
"Who is that girl? He's just like Neo that I can't see his identity. Who does he work with?" Rihan asked inwardly then sighed softly.
"Yes, already. Thanks for working hard. What about the assignment I gave you before returning to France?"
"There's not been any results, miss. Forgive us, Miss. We'll try."
"Hm. You can come back."
"Good, Miss. I'm saying goodbye,"
