Drrt drrt.
Freeya felt something shake inside her pants pocket. He also took the phone that kept shaking. His eyes sharpened when he read the name of the caller.
“Dad?”
For some reason he looked over and looked at the man next to him. Like asking for permission or waiting for an order to come out of his mouth.
“Thank you, your father is calling you. Why even look at me like that,” chirped Daniel with his flat face. Turn away from Freeya's pretty face.
“Who is staring at you, isshh..”
He grumbled in annoyance and immediately accepted the call.
“Freeya,” says a heavy-voiced man across the line.
Silent moment. Freeya sighed softly and nodded. “What's up, Dad? Tumben once you called me?”
“You are! Her father called instead of welcoming her with a greeting but it was like this! Can't the father call his own daughter? You don't be a brash kid like your brother-”
“AYAH! STOP!”
Suddenly Freeya snapped making Daniel and Assistant Dion who were in the car jerk in shock. Daniel turned his head and noticed Freeya's reddened face and her hands clutching firmly at the end of her suit.
“If dad is mad at me, please. But don't you carry around brother Beby, he's not wrong! Dad doesn't know him well, because all his life he's been like a stranger, there's no love and care you give him. And now that he's happy, don't concern himself anymore, he's already suffered a lot because of dad.”
With a tremble Freeya wiped the tears that almost fell from her eyelids. Though he turned away, Daniel could still see his sadness. From his voice that vibrated and began to soften.
He took a handkerchief from inside the shirt pocket, then gave it in front of Freeya's face. The woman looked up and looked at herself. But he chose to pretend he didn't care. Because she was beginning to understand that this woman did not like it if there was someone who sympathized with her.
“Dion, turn the car back to Mr. Arsyad Endrawira's residence!” daniel orders with his cold face.
Freeya, who was still talking to her father on the call, did not hear Daniel's orders to Dion's Assistant. “Good, Mr.”
“You are! It's smart to go against what Dad said, now you go home, because there's something I need to talk to you about!”
“You talked about what? About Dion Handoko's jerk?”
“FREEYA!”
Mr. Arsyad shouted loudly. Freeya is getting upset, her hands clutching tightly to the phone. Then suddenly his phone was taken by Daniel. Freeya was surprised she looked at Daniel who brought the phone screen closer to her ear.
“Alright Mr. Arsyad, now I will take Freeya to your home,” said Daniel.
“What do you do?” whispered Freeya while trying to take back her phone. But his mouth was closed with Daniel's big hand so he could not speak.
“You? Who're You? Where's Freeya?”
“I'm Daniel Adichandra, see you Mr. Arsyad...”.
He immediately turned off Freeya's phone and put it in the chair next to Dion's Assistant. Freeya frowned, staring full of questions.
“What do you do?”
Daniel returned the stare sharply. Freeya was unable and she finally chose to look straight ahead.
“What are you? Saying my father's word? Who said I wanted to meet him? Don't be crazy! I don't want to meet dad,” grumbled Freeya.
“You are such a coward,” replied Daniel with a mocking look.
“Coward?” Freeya felt unacceptable to the words of the man next to her.
“Yes, coward! I know you don't want to see your father, because you avoided the trouble in the cafe! Just so scared,” said Daniel again mocking him.
Freeya was irritated, she snorted with a reddened face. “I'm not afraid, and I'm not dodging!”
“Then now we meet your father!”
“Alright, no problem! But remember don't talk weird!” threaten Freeya clenched her hands in front of Daniel's face.
Daniel flicked his finger firmly in Freeya's hand that clenched in front of his face. The woman grimaced in pain.
“I will not speak strangely, but I will only speak honestly,” Daniel said.
The man chuckled softly while turning his face away.
“Honest? What do you mean?” Freeya thought about the honesty that Daniel meant, she recalled the incident that night. “Hei! Watch out if you talk about the events of that night in-”
Daniel quickly gagged Freeya's mouth with the handkerchief. “Whisper once! Why don't you shut up and sit quietly!”
Daniel's reddened face she glared and hinted at Freeya to remember that they were now in the car, along with Assistant Dion.
Freeya who realized also immediately paled. He nodded his gaze at Daniel and began to silently turn his face away. Dion's assistant glanced at a glance from the middle piece of glass.
“Dion, focus on driving, I will cut your pay this month, if you drive incorrectly!” tell Daniel coldly.
Dion's assistant gasped and swallowed his saliva heavily. “Ba-good, Mr.”
“What am I wrong?” inner Assistant Dion who did not understand the color change on the face of the Master.
