PART 188'S
Happy reading...
*********************
Amsterdam, Netherlands, Europe ....
“It’s been quite long that we haven’t feel this kind of weather, right? ... (It's been a while since we've felt this kind of weather, huh? )...” said Garret to Putra, while fixing his coat.
“Ya,” Putra said to Garret, as they descended the stairs of the commercial plane they used to go to the Netherlands.
The son also fixed the long coat he had worn from the plane. Ramone told Frans that it was winter in the Netherlands at this time.
So Putra and Garret had prepared long coats from Indo before they left for the Netherlands.
“Quite long .... ( Pretty long ) ...”
“Ma mi manca di pi l'inverno in Italy .... (But I miss winter more in Italy ) ...”
The words of Garret who uses Italian were immediately diyakan by Putra. “Also the beach at Ravenna (Also beach in Ravenna )”
The son chimed in and replaced Garret who then confirmed the speech of the Son.
“I couldn’t agree more (I agree with it )”
***
A hotel in Amsterdam ....
*“*Are your godfather will meet us here?**.. (Is your godfather going to meet us here? )...”*
*“*No**(No )”*
The son replied by shaking his head slowly at Garret, as they had reached the hotel room.
*“**Then?**( Then? ) ...”*
Garret spontaneously asked the son who had opened the long coat he had been wearing and had also sat himself on a single sofa in the hotel room, he was reading a small piece of paper in his hand.
*Then the Son gave the small paper with the fold mark to Garret. “*So the taxi driver is his?**.... (So that taxi driver is the one? )...” Garret said with a faint smile while looking at the paper given by the Son to her. The son also gave a thin smile.*
*“*You think?**(Do you think? )”*
***
Previous time ....
“We directly go to hotel?..”
“(We go directly to the hotel? ) ...”
(The son answered with a nod of the head to Garret ).
(Garret was silent after ).
(In the meantime the Son circulated his gaze ).
“Come, our taxi is here (Come, our taxi is here )”
(The Son pointed at a taxi that knew had appeared before them, after the Son had spread his gaze and stopped in one direction ).
“Okay.”
(Garret immediately entered the taxi that knew came even before he and Putra find out how to call a taxi that they can rent his services in the airport ).
(Garret also did not see Putra waving in the direction where many taxi drivers were standing, but the taxi was already know-how appeared ).
(Garret did not think much, and immediately entered the taxi that Putra had appointed, after his adoptive brother told Garret to go first into the taxi, and their luggage was put in
taxi baggage ).
“Here ( It's )”
(The son leaned his body and then gave some money from the currency of the country which he and Garret are currently in).
(The son did not have to bother to exchange his money again, because the day before he left, da Garret, Frans comes to Villa and gives some money that is already in the form of currency from the windmill country where Ramone ).
(Garret got down first to pick up the suitcase in the trunk of a taxi that had stopped in front of a hotel in Amsterdam. Putra was still in the taxi when Garret was taking her suitcase and Putra out of the trunk of taxi ).
“Enjoy your time at Netherlands, Sir (Happy enjoy your time in the Netherlands, Mr ) ..”
(The taxi driver said while receiving some of the money that the Son put on him, and a small folded paper he gave to the Son at the bottom of the money sheet ).
(The son nodded thinly ).
(It was only later that he got off the taxi after inserting the paper that the taxi driver gave him in secret).
***
“Are your godfather will meet us here? .. (Is your godfather going to meet us here? )...”
“No (No )”
“Then? ( Then? ) ...”
“......”
“So the taxi driver is his?.... (So that taxi driver is the one? )...”
“You think? (Do you think? )” cetus Putra.
Garret flashed her smile, then she chuckled short.
“I supposed to realize it when you talk with English to that taxi’s driver, whereas his face is very Netherlands (I should have noticed that when you spoke in English to the taxi driver,
though his face is very showing if he is Dutch )”
Son grunts amusedly.
“Maybe if the taxi’s driver is a sexy lady, you might pay attention for it”
“(Perhaps if the taxi driver is a sexy woman, you will just notice her )”
“Yeah, I believe so (Well, I guess so )”
The son snorted amusedly at Garret's impersonation of her clumsiness just now.
‘May you like the welcome gifts (Wish you like the welcome gift )’
“So where’s the welcome gift? (So where is the welcome gift? )”
Garret then asked Putra about one of the writings in the paper that Putra had given him, and still Garret held.
“If you expect a sexy lady as the welcome gift, I’m afraid you will get a dissapointment.... (If you're expecting a sexy woman as a welcome gift, I'm afraid you'll have to swallow the disappointment )...”.
Once again the Son joked.
“Well, too bad .... (Well, what a pity ) ..”
Garret chimed in with a disappointed grunt she made, and the Son chuckled a little, as did Garret who also chuckled a little later.
“So, are we waiting someone to deliver that welcome gifts here? .... (So, are we waiting for someone to deliver the welcome gift here? ) ...”
“No.... (No )...” says Son.
“Then? ...”
“Under the bed ...”
“( Under the bed ) ...”
The son also moved from his seat.
“Haha!!”
Garret who had gone before the Son to find the gift written in the message on the secret paper, then he chuckled and saw a bright light after he opened the square box under the bed in their hotel room.
The son who was also near Garret, then smiled faintly after seeing the contents of the square box that had been opened by Garret.
“It’s way better than a sexy lady!.... (It's so much better than sexy women! )...” Garret also said enthusiastically after lifting a pistol type revolver caliber 44.
While Putra had kept a thin smile and had also picked up one gun that was the same one Garret was holding, it was only of a different caliber. “That old man always know what I need as usual (The old man knows what I need as often )”
The son said slowly.
Then he took also a knife that was more or less the same as his that he left at Villa.
“Are we going to kill someone tonight? .... (Are we going to kill someone tonight? ). ...” Garret said with a faint smile as she checked the feasibility of the gun she was holding, with the bullet casings still empty, garret then filled the casing with the available bullet projectiles in the welcome gift box.
It was confirmed that Ramone was the one who prepared the gift for Son and Garret. The two young men did not carry their handguns as they used commercial planes to get to the Netherlands. Which certainly can not carry just any items, especially firearms.
“We’ll see about it later .... (We will see later ) ...” replied Son.
The son said while also checking the feasibility of the gun he had taken, while directing it to the wall of the hotel room, as if aiming.
“Ya hopping that we can have some fun ton with this (Yes hope we can get some fun tonight with this )” Garret wiggles the 44 caliber revolver pistol she is holding at that hand.
Even the son of mangosteen. “Heem...” as he put down the gun he was holding, then switched to the sharp knife he had chosen, and now he opened the scabbard.
“Ah I can’t wait to see what we’re going to do with this toy tonight.”.
“(Ah I am so impatient to see what we will do with this toy later tonight )..”.
“Yeah me too .... (Yes I did) ...” timpal Putra while separating the two weapons he chose and putting them on the bed.
***
A few hours passed....
“I thought that we’re going to have a dinner in a fancy Restaurant .... (I guess we'll have dinner at an expensive Restaurant ) ...”
Garret whispered in the Son's ear as they reached the front of a restaurant and double as a bar as well, which was located inside a small street.
The son was spontaneously tickled.
“Be grateful Mister Federico, it’s a bless if we still can eat tonight (Thank God Garret, it's still good we can still have dinner tonight ).”
“Oh, I’ve been touched by your words, Mister Vinson (Oh, I was really touched by your words, Mr. Vinson ).” kekeh Garret.
The two men threw each other a joke by saying their last names.
Then Putra and Garret swung their steps to enter the restaurant while fixing the position of the newsboy hat they were wearing.
***
After entering the restaurant, Putra and Garret were escorted by a waitress at a table and both sat there.
The son and Garret ordered their food and sat down and seemed to have a casual chat with each other, until their order came.
But at the same time, Putra had directly asked for a bill for his order on the waitress until the waitress seemed a little surprised.
The son smiled faintly at the waitress, then said that he was in a hurry and deliberately asked for a bill at the beginning with an alibi afraid he forgot and left so that he did not pay for his food, so he could not pay for it, with a friendly attitude towards the waitress.
Like the restaurant guests who double the bar, Putra and Garret then seemed to enjoy their ordered food and drinks and occasionally seemed to also chat casually with the original topic that they spontaneously discussed.
Until the time the Son put his spoon and fork on a plate containing a portion of waterzooi that has not been seen the Son ate.
Garret didn't need to ask why the Son didn't finish his meal, because he understood the situation.
After Putra put down his spoon and fork then tidy up the newsboy hat that Putra wore and indeed the Son and Garret who also wear a hat with the same model it is not both off.
The movement of the Son who cleaned his hat before finishing his food order should be a code that Garret understood his point.
The son moved from his place, then approached a waitress and asked where the restroom of the restaurant that doubles the bar was.
“I’ll be waiting you outside! (I'll be waiting for you outside! )” said Garret to Putra in a slightly volumized voice, as Putra had walked away from their table.
The son raised his thumb without turning back after being told the restroom of the restaurant from a
waitress whom he asked.
‘I still wonder how he can have that very sharp instinct (I'm still curious how his instincts can be so sharp ) ...’
Garret sat in while still enjoying her meal at a leisurely pace as Putra went to the restaurant toilet. What Putra said before they left for the Netherlands, including when Ramone had not left first, was broadly in accordance with what Putra suspected and predicted.
The instinct that Garret has known the story, when Putra gets a premonition before the arrival of Jaeden to Ravenna.
The same instinct, which prevents Rery from facing Jaeden first.
The instinct, according to Damian, made Putra feel uneasy in the days before he went to Indo, where Putra had refused several times to go, but because Rery urged him Putra with a heavy heart left Ravenna and went to Indo to take care of everything about their move quickly.
Instincts in the form of fear of the Son for the safety of Rery and his family to make Putra unfocused and prolonged anxiety while in Indo.
The bad instincts eventually become apparent, when Rery and his wife are killed shortly where Putra returns to Ravenna.
Making the Son now will not think twice if there is something he has a feeling that something is not right will happen, especially to people he cares about and cares about.
And that instinct, it feels now more sharp the Son has.
“You wait father here, I want to buy a snack (You wait for dad here, I want to buy a snack ) ..”
The son said to Garret who was outside the restaurant and was lighting his cigarette, when he had also come out of the restaurant that he and Garret were talking to.
“Yes brothers! (Yes my brother! )”
Garret said casually to the Son who was about to leave from before him.
“But catch me if I quite long to get back here .... (But follow me if I get back here a little while ) ...”
“..............”
“Just in case the snacks seller is quite busy .... (Who knows the snack seller is quite crowded ) ...”
Garret nodded and smiled at the Son. He understood the meaning of the Son's sentences which actually contain different meanings from the meaning of these sentences literally.
Because the snack that Putra meant, was a man who had entered the restaurant and went straight to the restaurant toilet, and someone in the restaurant was seen also going to the toilet shortly after the arrival of the man
those.
Where the Son also pretended to go to the toilet afterwards, because the man who shortly stood after the arrival of the man the Son was following at this time, was someone from whom the Son knew.
“Ehem!”
The son cleared his throat as he was already completely behind the man he was following.
The man who seemed shocked by the presence of the Son who had known appeared before him, after he reached the car parked on a small, pitch-black street.
“Wie ben jij?! (Who are you?! )” said the man in Dutch to Putra and wanted to reach behind his thick jacket.
“Wil je een boodschap overbrengen aan je baas (Want to deliver a message to your boss )”
But the movement of the man lost quickly from the hand of the Son who had held his hand to get inside behind his jacket, then took a firearm from the waist of the men's pants.
“Argh!”
Along with a puncture in the stomach of the man who was the Son followed, which made the man immediately slumped in place while holding his stomach.
“From ( From ) Ramone Zeeman”
Sreet! ...
An incision in the neck and right in the pulse of the man who had slumped in that place, was given the Son very quickly.
Until the man was immediately covered in blood and lifeless for some time. Which then quickly Putra just left, after making sure that the man had been lifeless.
“Amateur (Amateur )” Mumbles Son.
Then the Son just left the man, and slipped himself leisurely and quietly into the darkness.
