ROMANCE ALIVE
52. Work Together.

...~Happy Reading~...

The next day, there was a rush at the Marons house. All the residents had been up early and had breakfast. Especially Kaliana, because Bram had contacted her and informed her that Chasina had been in a safe place.

"Sir Yosa, please gather with the others in the living room, yes. There's something we're gonna talk about." Kaliana approached Mr. Yosa for his help. He wants all his team members to gather in the living room, because he wants to explain what will be done and what will be faced some time in the future.

"Sir Danny, let's talk here for a second, shall we?" Kaliana said to Danny who was about to stand up leaving the dining table with the others. Kaliana needs to talk to Danny, so as not to feel awkward with his team members.

Danny sat down opposite Kaliana at the dinner table. "Sir Danny... I'm sorry, I didn't have time to explain a few things about us last night, because I was so tired and sleepy. I hope Mr. Danny doesn't get bothered by the attitude or speech of my team members." Kaliana realizes, Danny is a serious man with his job. It may not be able to accept the way the team communicates or their attitude in interacting.

He worried that Danny was surprised by the words or actions of sopape members who talked about something serious, with speech and intonation different from people in general. So that Danny may not understand and be confused or uncomfortable with the situation.

"That's nothing Mba' Anna. Considering this is something new, I work in a team of different professions. But I've worked with Mba' Anna, so I'll have an easier time learning with the others." Danny was relieved, Kaliana asked him to speak before gathering with the other team members.

"Good, Sir. Thank ye. Mr. Marons was also first in the team, only to see us working without comment. But if anything is not understood, he asks us and sometimes protests." Kaliana tried to explain, so that Danny could work with the sopape team and not feel hesitant. Kaliana too, so smiled considering the Marons protested to her.

Danny nodded in understanding what Kaliana meant. He did see a very different attitude of Marons to Kaliana. She was more considerate and supportive of him before finding out Kaliana was his friend in Junior High School. Especially after knowing it, Marons showed more attention openly.

Danny confirmed what he was thinking when he arrived last night at Marons' house. She thought Kaliana would secure herself to stay at her place or hotel. He did not expect the Marons to allow Kaliana with her team to stay at his house.

Something Marons never did to anyone else. He did not allow just anyone to be around him, let alone stay in his house. Although he was a friend and also his personal lawyer, personal matters Marons never talked to him. Just like what happened in her household with Rallita all this time.

If the Marons don't need legal help, he won't talk to her about it personally. As when Rallita injured her hand, she did not ask Yogi for help to treat her, because it would explain many things to Yogi. For the Yogi will ask the cause of the wound, and Marons will have to explain it.

"Good, Sir. Later when we get together and talk, Mr. Danny please comment if there is anything that needs to be corrected from every team talk." Kaliana invites Danny to participate and take part in every team talk.

"We in the team have a background of work and habits each and different. So if we analyze something, we argue or propose something from our own point of view." Kaliana explained about the sopape team, so that Danny was not surprised to hear the results of the analysis of team members in solving the case.

"We're all currently just focusing on helping Ms. Chasi. I'm sure I can help him, so ask Mr. Danny to be his lawyer. All that I'm doing, so that we can have a discussion like this, about all the evidence findings of the gutter case and its continuation." Kaliana tried as much as possible to avoid friction when they discussed, because they did not understand each other.

"Yes, Mba Anna. Thank you for caring and taking me on as I am today. By doing this, it further enriches my insight and also understands the process of proving cases. So more complete when defending against him." Danny was well aware of the benefits he gained while working with Kaliana.

"Mba' Anna doesn't have to feel bad when I'm in the team. Mba' Anna just did as she always did, set up a plan and executed it. I'll come and participate if needed." Danny quickly understood, seeing Kaliana's attitude. 'Maybe he's a bit shy in his attitude because he's in the team.' Danny said in his heart.

Seeing the way Kaliana treated him, he was not offended. Kaliana still appreciates it, as a person who has his own law firm and also has employees. Danny could feel it when Kaliana asked him to speak, so Danny could understand. However, Kaliana is the leader in his team who makes plans and decisions. Danny must understand and accept for the good and the vagueness of the case being dealt with.

"Good... Let's go in and talk to the others, because the time for us right now is precious. There's a lot we're going to talk about and do, ahead of the trial." Kaliana said, then stood followed by Danny, entering the living room.

"In the meantime, Mr. Danny can't get a call here, without Son's knowledge. If anyone calls, don't respond immediately, but tell the Son to secure Mr. Danny's position here." Kaliana said while walking sideways to the family room.

Kaliana did not want any leakage of their position, before the trial. Danny nodded. He had already begun to understand when Kaliana told Putra, would contact Bram and wait for a signal from the new Son to contact him.

When they enter the family room, team members are ready to work. The son had turned on the TV and all his work equipment was in an on condition and the laptop was open in front of him.

"As always, before we speak or analyze the case we are about to deal with, let us pray according to our respective beliefs. May God help us, so as not to think wrongly and make plans or make decisions." Say Kaliana to her team members as they used to do in their previous office.

Danny looked at Kaliana and his team, then bowed his head with a touched heart. He began to learn something he had not thought of. He felt enough at home to pray, but did this together, having a different atmosphere and strength to start working together.

"Right now, we're all going to share a lot here to help Ms. Chasi. Mr. Danny will be with us for some time, not only will he help us from the legal side, but he also needs to be secured here regarding the case for Ms. Chasi's divorce." Kaliana explains Danny's whereabouts among them.
