Killa and Marvin walked down the stairs one by one. While holding hands with fingers that are linked to each other. Sometimes they throw fake smiles at each other. To look more harmonious in front of his father.
"Good morning!" Greet Kevin's father when Marvin and Killa are right in front of him.
The lounge room is also a family room. Kevin's father was sitting relaxed while reading a morning newspaper. Sometimes he also sipped herbal tea that the waiter had prepared for him.
"For dad!" Marvin.
"Pa-morning-" Killa stutters confused as to what Kevin's father.
"Father-in-law!" Marvin's whisper in Killa's ear.
"Good morning father-in-law!" Killa greeted with a smile and bowed slightly.
"Sit down!" Kevin's father invites Marvin and Killa to sit down with him.
Marvin and Killa sat down together. Still with hands together. Somehow Killa felt so tense to meet Kevin's father. Especially the gaze of the middle-aged man. Very gripping, flat, and cold. Just like Marvin when they first met.
"So, your name is Killa? Killa Roses! You're Gerry Roses' real son?" Kevin's father told Killa.
"Truly father-in-law! Do you know my father?" Killa asked who was surprised because Kevin's father seemed to know the figure of his father.
"Clearly! Gerry is a special team leader I used to work with! Even though he was the head of the Roses gang that was very famous at that time! But he remains humbly willing to cooperate with me, helping me solve some cases!" Said Kevin's father recalled the figure of Gerry in his eyes.
Killa looked at Marvin who was also staring at him. Marvin looked very surprised, but he still remained calm and relaxed. As if I knew it in front of Kevin's dad. But Marvin found out, he was very surprised. It turned out that Killa had parents who were also struggling in that dark and cruel world.
"Dad in law is right! My father is a very humble man! But all that was just the past, he had made his entire family threatened! Because of the many enemies that are vengeful against him! Me, my mother, and my sister were targeted! I don't know if I should be thankful that I didn't because I survived the massacre! I feel like this is all dad's fault, dad's making us suffer!" Said Killa who unconsciously became emotional because she talked about her parents.
Killa's tears trickled down, the girl quickly wiped them. He didn't want to look weak in front of everyone. While Marvin looks stunned by the words that come out of Killa's mouth. He had never seen Killa as emotional as that. Especially talking about her parents. All that Marvin knows now. Because of his busy life he forgot to find out all about Killa. All he knew was that Killa's parents were dead and the girl had an eighteen-year-old sister.
"I'm sorry father-in-law! I got a little carried away! Sorry!" Killa said apologizing to Kevin's father. Because it feels so bad to talk with emotion.
"It's okay! I can understand!" Kevin's father sipped his herbal tea.
While Marvin, the man did not stop staring at Killa. His hand moved rubbing the rest of the girl's teardrops on his cheeks.
Killa looked at Marvin with sadness. Can't believe what he just heard. His heart was again touched by the cold man's sweet treatment.
"Thank you, Vin!" Killa smiled at Marvin.
Kevin's father was sipping his herbal tea. Stopped when she heard Killa say 'Thank you, Vin'. Her teary eyes held back her tears that almost came out.
The middle-aged man suddenly remembered his wife. A sweet smile was drawn on the pretty face of a woman who had once said that to her.
Kevin's father looked at the boy and his son-in-law. He remembered himself first. Especially when he saw Killa wearing a white dress owned by his wife. Somehow Kevin's father felt Killa was the right woman for Marvin's son.
"Well, it's almost noon! Don't you want to make something for your father-in-law?" Said Kevin's father trying to break the atmosphere that happened.
"Huh?" The couple looked at him at the same time.
"Look, I want to taste the cuisine of my new daughter-in-law!" Kevin's father smiled.
"But--" Killa was shocked to the point of being unable to say.
"Dad, why did you tell Killa to cook! There are many good waiters and cooks here! Why bother like that!" Marvin protested with the will of his father.
"It's okay Vin! I'll cook you a nice fried rice for your father-in-law! It's an honor for me!" Killa is excited and goes straight to the kitchen leaving Marvin and Kevin's father.
Nah! This can't happen! What was she cooking? Fried rice? No way, I'm not sure dad's taste will be the same as mine! Inner Marvin's anxious.
"Your wife is so excited, I'm sure the cooking will be as good as your mother's!" Kevin's father smiled at the departure of his excited daughter-in-law.
"I'll help Killa!" Marvin left his own father. He catches up with Killa to the kitchen, worried that his wife will make his strange cooking.
