Eps. #51 Making the Calculations
"Speaking bullshit what else are you, Diaz?" Daniel showed a hardened expression on his face.
"Not nonsense, but the truth is like that! This girl is my ex-boyfriend. Ardila is no longer holy, because I have dated her several times. Haha....!" gelak Diaz sneered sharply.
"Bad! Watch your mouth, Diaz. Don't be arrogant and feel great. In my eyes you are nothing!" daniel's cry lowered, with the blood vessels in his neck also seen stiffening. Diaz's ridicule really ignited his anger.
Without further ado, Daniel approached Diaz and raised his fist to throw a punch at Diaz.
"Geez!" Diaz also raised her hand and she could easily hold Daniel's hand.
Diaz smiled as she looked into Daniel's flaming eyes, indicating an emotion she could no longer control.
"That ardila is mine, Daniel! So, don't you dare bother him!" Diaz continued to grin which made Daniel even more riled up.
Daniel again tried to aim his punch at Diaz's face. However, Diaz was also very nimble to avoid it.
The fight between the two men was inevitable. Diaz and Daniel throw punches and kicks at each other. However, both of them were shrewd and equally trained in martial arts. So, they do not easily beat each other.
On one occasion, Diaz managed to direct his kick right in Daniel's stomach which immediately made Daniel fall down.
"Aarrgghh!" Daniel groans in pain.
"Well, weak!" Diaz only moved the tip of his mouth up when he saw Daniel was paralyzed. Diaz then looked back and saw Ardila still there and stood in fear.
"Ardila!" squeal Diaz. "Hurry in your car and leave this place!" his orders.
For a moment Ardila was stunned, she did not think that Diaz wanted to save her.
"Wait what else, Dila! Leave this place!" pekik Diaz again repeated his orders, because he saw Ardila was still standing in his original place.
"You're not that easy to get out of here. Haha....!" prevent a man from confronting Ardila with his grinning laughter.
Ardila gasped, not expecting that Jhon had stood before her and blocked her path.
"Don't arrest me! Please...!" Ardila's loud voice instantly moved Diaz's legs to approach her.
"It looks like you want to die here, Jhon!" Diaz directly aimed his punch at Jhon and the two went back to fighting.
John was no tough match for Diaz, so Diaz easily pushed him.
"Diaz.... Awass!!" yelled Ardila while covering her face with both palms. From behind Diaz, Daniel reappears, throwing a knife at Diaz.
Hearing Ardila's cry, Diaz still managed to avoid Daniel's swift movements.
"Aarr!" The moaning was now heard from Diaz's mouth, as the knife in Daniel's grasp still managed to scratch his arm. Fresh blood instantly flowed from that knife-scratched wound.
"Diaz.....!" Ardila yells. Seeing Diaz hurt, Ardila's heart was also scratched. However, Diaz is injured in an attempt to save herself.
Diaz grunted furiously. Although his arm was injured, he was still able to give a sharp look towards Daniel who was smiling in a hanky, as it felt victorious against him.
Diaz then twisted her body and raised her legs high.
Bugh!
Diaz's unexpected kick by Daniel, hit right in Daniel's chest which again made him fall down and the knife in his hand was released.
Diaz then ran towards Ardila.
"Come, Dila. Get in your car!" Diaz pulled Ardila's hand and escorted her to the door of her car.
"But you're hurt, Diaz!" ardila exclaimed, not having the heart to see blood still flowing from the wound on Diaz's arm
"Don't mind me, Dila. Get out of here!" resolute Diaz.
Blaghagh!
As fast as lightning, Diaz closed the door of Ardila's car as she entered. The car drove away leaving him.
Daniel and Jhon could no longer stand in his way, so Diaz quickly escaped.
"Aargha! You're a fucking Diaz! You really have started a feud with me!" With great effort, Daniel gathered up the rest of his strength and got up from where he fell.
"Look at it, Diaz! I'll make the calculations with you!" daniel's snort was furious as he wiped the tip of his lips that spit out a drop of blood.
"From now on we are enemies! And you should know what the consequences are if you dare to defy me! Not only will I eliminate you, but I will also destroy you first!"
Daniel clenched both his hands. Angkara flames of wrath flared on his face.
****
Diaz drove his car so fast. The wound on his arm hurt and continued to bleed.
As soon as he reached his home, Diaz immediately threw his butt over the sofa of the living room.
"Servant! Quickly get me the P3K box!" diaz gave orders to the waiter at his house.
Hearing Diaz's cry, Floretta, who had been in the kitchen of the house, rushed to him.
"What happened to you, Diaz?"
Flo widened her eyes when she saw Diaz coming home injured and her jacket covered in blood.
"It's okay, just a cut!" sahut Diaz's.
Flo narrowed her eyes. Although Diaz said that he was okay, Flo could see that Diaz's face was a little pale, probably because a lot of blood came out of his wound. Flo sits on the sofa next to her sister.
"Let's take your jacket off! I'll check your wound!" Flo unzips Diaz's jacket and helps her to take it off.
"God! The wound is deep enough, it must have hurt a lot. I'll get a doctor for you. Let's give me your phone!" Flo fumbles on all the pockets in her jacket and jeans that Diaz is wearing, hoping to find Diaz's cell phone there.
Diaz smiled, looking at her sister's face that looked panicked and worried about her, when she found out she was hurt, she knew that Flo really cared about her situation.
"No need to call the doctor, Flo. Wrapped bandages are enough. It's just a small wound" Diaz said, not wanting her sister to be too anxious.
Flo just shook his head slowly and smiled flatly. Rushing he took gauze and an antiseptic liquid to treat the wound on his brother's arm. Deftly, Flo also bandaged the wound to stop the bleeding.
"You have never been deterred, Sister Diaz. I know you must have fought, right? You always liked to make a scene!" hardik Flo, but his hands were still busy treating the wound on his brother's arm.
"I always pray that you can change, Brother. I always hope that someday you can live as a good person and stop committing all the crimes!" Flo kept chattering.
A few days of living in the house, making Flo very eager to reconcile with her brother. He also kept thinking how he could get Diaz back on the right path.
Diaz just kept silent not responding to Flo's rebuke. On her lips was a smile that continued to curl beautifully. Hearing Flo call him with the call 'Sister' again, made his heart feel very happy.
"Thank you for caring so much about me, Flo!" Diaz looked at her sister's sweet face. "I'm so happy that you've come back to call me Brother" Diaz said. The smile grew on his lips when he saw Flo was also able to smile at him.
"No matter how much you hurt and let me down, you're still my brother. Even though I hated you, you were still my brother. We're tied to blood, brother. We should love each other and take care of each other." Flo rubbed Diaz's back and looked at her brother's face.
"From now on I promise you, I won't do any more crime, Flo. I will never again be a follower of Daniel's network. Today I got hurt like this too because of him." Diaz growling.
Flo inhaled oxygen deeply, there was no more doubt in her heart towards her brother. Diaz's eyes were honest and earnest while saying her promise.
"I believe in you, brother. From now on I will always support you." Flo continued to smile, and he was more and more convinced that Diaz had indeed changed.
"Thank you, Flo. From today I promise to always look after you!" Diaz stuck out her hand.
"Sama-sama, Brother. We'll always be together and take care of each other like we used to." Flo immediately rushed to her brother's chest and the two hugged her very tightly.
Tears welled up in Diaz's eyes. After all these years, she could hug her sister again lovingly.
And so did Flo. Unbearable tears washed his cheeks. In a few years he lived alone and planted enmity with his brother. That day, she had already made up her heart to make peace with Diaz and was determined to bring her brother back on the right path.
