Ethan hands a large brown envelope thick enough to both Baruna's parents.
Mr. Mustofa and Ms. Duma looked at each other. The two received the envelope and opened it. The eyes of the two were shocked to see the contents inside the envelope. Fractional money of 100 thousand amounted to 100 million rupiah.
"Th-this means what?" Ask Mr. Mustofa who is still surprised.
"This is part of the result of my and Baruna's cooperation in our business Ma'am. I should have given it up sooner. But because of one thing or another I just get to the homeland. I can't reach Baruna either" Ethan said, explaining as rationally as possible even though he was lying.
He only could not bear to know the condition of Baruna's parents who had been expelled by Pak Mustofa's sister who said the family of Mr. Mustofa is a great disgrace to their extended family. The entire house even money Pak Mustofa was taken by his own biological brother under the pretext of all the relics of the parents, do not want Pak Mustofa destroy the relics of their late father later.
Though all the money belongs to Mr. Mustofa is the result of his hard work so far. Although the house does belong to the father, Mr. Mustofa is actually entitled to the house under any circumstances. But because they do not want to fight and their neighbors all continue to gossip and spy on his family, Mr. Mustofa chose to give up and leave from there.
"God... Baruna's...." Ms. Duma cried as she pleased, she remembered the princess who had gone somewhere without news until now. Either alive or dead, either healthy or sick. There's no news.
"Sorry Sir, Mom. What's up?" Ethan asks pretending he doesn't know.
"I'm sorry Ethan. Baruna disappeared for half a year. We can't find him" said Mr Mustofa with teary eyes.
"What's the problem, sir? Why is Baruna gone?" Ethan asked her well.
"He was tricked by his friend. The entire money is also the money of the investor runs out unceremoniously. We're also trying to help her get back the investor's funds, but somehow she disappeared and some even spread rumors of her being a night woman and ruining people's families" Said Mr. Mustofa who could no longer hold back his tears.
"Baruna isn't that kind of girl, sir" Ethan said, choking his throat.
Yes, because Ethan himself once accused Baruna of being an unrighteous woman who peddled herself for a striped man but was very arrogant and haughty.
"We also believe that's not true. We took care of him from him still in the womb. It can't be Baruna like that. He's a kid who even dresses up and is always polite and always tries not to show his curves to the opposite sex. So there is no way he is that cool" said Mr. Mustofa who understands the character of Baruna.
Ethan breathed a heavy sigh. Had he been faster, or had he not let Baruna go that day. Maybe Baruna is still hanging out with her family. Perhaps Baruna would not be half human and half otherworldly. Maybe Baruna can also get together with her family.
..."Baruna must let go of not being able to gather with her family and will live between the human world and other worlds. He should devote himself entirely to his helpers. He can no longer be reincarnated. That was the price he had to pay in order to restore his family's honor and settle his grudges"...
Ethan suddenly remembers what Snowy said as they were talking in the cave (read: goa-red). Baruna gave up her life for the sake of both her parents. The last thing Baruna could do.
"Sorry sir, ma'am if I'm presumptuous. In the meantime let me represent Baruna to serve Father and Mother. If there is anything important, you can call me at this number and once a month I will come to deliver the profit sharing owned by Baruna" Ethan said while thrusting a piece of paper with his mobile number. He can't give you his card.
"Ah thank you son. Thank ye. If there is any news from Baruna then we will tell Nak Ethan as well" said Mr. Mustofa.
"Yes Sir. But I'm sure Baruna is fine. There may be one or another thing that makes him unable to return" Ethan said trying to comfort both Baruna's parents.
"We hope so too. It's okay if she can't come back yet but we hope she's healthy wherever she is" Ms Duma said, voicing the heart of a mother who is very worried about her daughter.
Mr. Mustofa thinks that others will avoid his family who are in trouble. It might not even be necessary to give his daughter a share of the profits. While the figure of the young man he recognized was very good and honestly did not want to take that which was not his right.
"I live in a rented town. Don't bother sir. Then I'll excuse the dulum Next month I'll come again" Ethan said goodbye to Baruna's parents.
"alright. Have a heart today, Ethan. If there is a stopover time. Let us be able to entertain you properly" said Mr. Mustofa accompanied by a nod of the head from Bu Duma sign agree to the words of the husband.
"Good Sir. Excuse me first" Ethan said, then got in the car.
In the car he saw the faces of two grateful Baruna parents who got a fortune they did not expect. And the sad look of losing Baruna was so pronounced in Ethan's eyes.
"As promised by Baruna. I'll help you. Don't worry anymore, I'll take care of your parents for you" Ethan said as he drove the car away from Baruna's parents' house.
Ethan also orders his men to hire a bodyguard who disguises himself as Baruna's parents' neighbors in order to keep them from being mistreated by bad people.
Ethan's back in his office. When he entered the office he was surprised to see Snowy in the form of a human being sitting waiting on the sofa.
"You... Snowy...." Ethan lowered his voice.
"Hi Bro! You busy? Wherever you go with that dress. Like no work" Snowy commented on Ethan's casual outfit.
"I had business for a moment. Why Snowy? Is there a problem with Baruna?" Ask Ethan worriedly.
"Hey hey be patient. Be calm. You're a bucin so stupid! I'm just bored. Baruna was busy with her business. Ah and outside if you meet my form like this call me Sky!" Snowy reminded me.
"Ah yes sorry. I'm release. So what's up?" Ask Ethan.
"Follow me. You'll know later!" Snowy then pulls Ethan's hand to follow him.
Ethan asks his assistant to represent him to take care of the office, if anyone urgent just contact Ethan. No one dared to ask or protest to the subsidiary owner of the company.
