Elric pushed open Nathan's studio door slowly. The father was so busy with his guitar that he was unaware of his presence. Finally, he decided to wait for a while while leaning his back beside the door. Watching his father's movements play the guitar with wisdom.
Nathan completed an incision on his Les Paul guitar string, then turned around and found the son watching. "Back, Elric. Come here, Boy (here, son)."
"Hello, Nathan." Elric approached the father and gave a fleeting hug. Nathan then told the young man to sit next to him.
"How are you, El?"
"As you can see." Elric touched the guitar strings that Nathan was still holding. "Stay loyal to your old classical guitar?" chortled.
"Well, this is a historic guitar. Witness of Hellbound travel. I can't possibly auction it."
Elric. "How much did it cost?" tanyakanya.
"Hmm ... If not wrong five thousand dollars."
Elric asked Nathan to give him the black guitar. "so repot. Why not just install a wireless jack?" he said while tidying up the cable that sticks to the output of the guitar jack.
Nathan. "You young guitarists don't understand the fun of playing classical guitar."
"Yeah, right (whatever)." Elric rolled his eyeballs. He then tried to play a tone that made Nathan round his blue eyes.
"Wait on! What was that?" ask Nathan. "Try me again." Elric grimacing. He then played back the tone he listened to a moment ago.
"Can you explain what that is?"
"Well, the combination of noise and industrial."
Nathan squinted his eyes at the son. "Did you invent this technique (you invented this technique)?"
"No. I take inspiration from everywhere. It just so happens that my bandmates have the same taste."
"You got a band, El?"
Elric chuckles. "yeah. With Darren Chevalier."
Nathan rounded his eyes. Recalling his conversation with Ben Chevalier some time ago about their children. Apparently destiny really brings Elric and Darren together.
"Wow!" nathan was amazed. His son has made a lot of progress in his life. It seemed, letting Elric determine his own life path was the right decision. Nathan doesn't have to force Elric to make music. Music will bring him back. And, come on-skill guitar Elric very can not be underestimated. This kid is a genius.
"I'm so proud of you, Kid (i'm so proud of you, son)" Nathan said, patting Elric on the shoulder.
"Don't be proud now, Dad. My journey is still far."
"Ah, whatever it is I'm still proud of you." Nathan embraced Elric's neck and rubbed the tip of the young man's head in a fit of anxiety. "What brings you home here, El?"
Elric cleared his throat once. Then put the father's guitar to the guitar stand. The young man pulled out a chair and sat down in front of Nathan.
"I need money, Dad."
"Hm ...." Nathan thunts. A rare moment Elric asks her for money.
"I'm not asking. I borrowed."
"You want to borrow money from me?" Nathan raised both eyebrows.
"If you want to help me. But, you have to help me. I need it so much. Give me three months to get it back."
Nathan chuckled at his son's words. "How much do you need?"
"50,000 dollars."
Nathan's lips cut. "What's that money for?" inquiringly.
"They're dealing with the mafia?"
Elric shrugged his shoulders. "Looks like. It concerns a mother. He will lose his son if tomorrow afternoon the money is not available. I imagine Alya is in that position."
Nathan smiled. Very noble is the heart of this son. Alya also tells him that Elric sold a sports car gift from him to help pay off a friend's student loan and the rest he donated to the orphanage.
"So?" ask Elric.
"I'll transfer the money to your cryptomu account."
Elric breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks, Dad," he said.
"But .. with one condition. Stay tonight and accompany your mother for a walk tomorrow."
"Deal!"

Noah's problem is over. The important thing is to see Mrs McGovern not worry anymore. However, Elric had warned Noah not to go back to making trouble. The young man promised to be kind and stay away from gambling so as not to get into debt, although Elric was unsure if he would keep his promise.
So busy that day, from accompanying Alya for a walk in the morning, then in the afternoon he had to be in the studio, and in the afternoon he took care of Noah's problems to the end. To the extent that, Elric forgets that Emma was angry with him last night when he called the girl to tell her that he managed to get money from his father to help Noah. Emma still doesn't agree that Elric helped the young man. As a result, the girl disconnected the phone unilaterally.
Elric opened the door of the apartment slowly and found the living room dark. He pressed the manual switch next to the door. The lights were on, but there was no Emma there.
"Dome!" call him while knocking on the door. He was sure the girl had gone home because the coat was hanging in the corner of the room.
"Nr ...." His fingers stopped in the air as the door opened from within. Emma put on her pouting face while staring cynically at Elric.
"Still angry?"
"You think?"
"Can I come in?"
"No!"
"Yes, let's talk in the living room." Elric pulled Emma's hand and took the girl sitting next to him in the living room.
"I promise. Just this once I helped Noah. Next time I make sure he doesn't act." Elric showed two fingers. "I'm just thinking about Mrs McGovern."
"It's better Mrs McGovern lost a useless child like her" Emma murmured.
"Hey, Emma .. Your words are evil." To be honest Elric was unable to resist the happy smile as the girl nagged him like this.
"The thing is, once you help her, she'll definitely feel .. hey!" Emma gasps when Elric suddenly kisses her cheek. Just a glance, yet was able to make his speech evaporate in the air. "Gee!" He hit Elric's shoulder. "I'm talking seriously, El!" the hardic.
"Okay, okay ...." Elric raised both hands of surrender.
"Have it, it's up to you." Emma moved from her seat. "I'm sleepy." The girl stepped back towards the door.
"Wouldn't give me a good-night hug?" asked Elric who was now standing behind him.
Emma twisting body. He saw Elric had opened both hands asking for a hug from him. The girl sighed first, then went into the arms of the tall man before her.
As the two let go of each other's embrace, there was a split second moment of their faces being close together, but hesitated to bring their lips together.
"Good night, Em .. sweet dream."
Emma nodded. The two pairs of eyes clashed with each other until the door of the room cut off their eyes.
