“Let’s go back to hotel ..”

(Let's go back to the hotel ... )

The son had returned before Garret who was still standing in his place when the Son left him just now, by carrying a paper package containing roadside snacks typical of the windmill country which is also relaxing Putra enjoy.

“Father hasn’t come yet ... (Dad hasn't arrived ... )”

“It’s okay. I’m sure that father can get home save ... (It's okay. I'm sure you can return home safely ... )”

The son took the snack from the package and it looked still warm, then put it in his mouth casually.

“If you say so, then let’s go ... (If that is what you say, then come ... )” Garret also confirmed the words of the Son who was looking at another restaurant not far from where they stand now.

The son only saw the mangosteen, then swung his steps to walk to the hotel where he and Garret were staying. Which is located not far from the restaurant they were sambangi earlier.

“What is that? ... (What is it? ... )”

Garret asked the Son while pointing at the package of snacks in the hands of the Son with his head.

“Oliebol..” replied Putra while thrusting a package containing snacks that he mentioned earlier to Garret.

Garret took the package of the snack from the Son's hand, and took one and ate it.

“It’s a sweet food, but smells a little bit stench... (It's a sweet treat, but it smells a little fishy ... )”

Garret glanced at Putra with a meaningful gaze that Son understood as Garret raised one eyebrow and smiled obliquely.

Garrett was just a pilot. But he has a fairly sharp sense of smell, in addition to the insight of his eyes.

Garret could easily recognize the smell coming from the Son's hand, though thin.

But the smell that Garret caught in his sense of smell, he could already recognize where the source was.

The son just snorted amusedly in response to the words of Garret, who then enjoyed every piece of snack that the Son had brought and given to him. While the two men swung their steps until they reached the hotel where they were staying.

***

“Next time take me if you want to get a snack ... (Next time take me if you want to find a snack ... )”

Garret said to Putra just after they reached the hotel where they were staying.

Where the Son immediately smiled.

“Don’t worry, you’ll get some another snacks tomorrow ( Don't worry, you'll get some other snacks tomorrow ) ..”

Garret then also let out a smile.

“Well can’t wait ... (i feel impatient.... )” said Garret.

***

The next day .....

“Where are we going to? (Where are we going? )....”

Garret asked the Son who was standing in front of the hotel lobby.

“Church (Church )”

The son answered immediately.

“Woah, you become a religious man now, hem?....”

(Well, you're becoming a religious person now, huh? ..... )

The son chuckled. Then a hotel attendant approached, pointing to a car that had stopped in front of the hotel lobby where Putra and Garret were standing.

Then Putra and Garret boarded a car that Putra had rented from the hotel where Garret was staying.

******

Maastricht Vritjof's.....

Putra and Garret have been in a town in the southern Netherlands. The car that Putra and Garret were riding in, where the Son was driving himself and stopped the car he was driving in front of a large church in the town square that Putra and Garret came to today.

“Are we going to meet him here? ..... (Are we going to meet him here? ..... )”

“Yes ( Yes )” Reply Son briefly. Then Putra and Garret got out of the car after Putra parked it where it was available.

****

“I think you totally getting older ‘till you don’t know there’s a betrayer inside you”

(I think you're really getting old until you don't realize there's a traitor around you)

The Son who spoke while leaning against a shady mahogany tree on the edge of a field in the area of the Church that he and Garret visited.

Garret also rests on the opposite side of the tree with the Son.

At first glance, the two men looked like they were chatting with each other.

But in reality the Son's speech was intended for a man who was sitting on a chair near the tree where the Son was resting.

“Then I already made the right decision by giving my throne to my godson (Let me decide to give my godson my throne )”

The man who was sitting then spoke without looking.

The son snorted amusedly, while Garret smiled faintly.

“Buy some mineral waters before you back to your Mansion, or even food old man.... (Buy some bottles of mineral water before you go back to your residence, or maybe some old man's food..... )”

The son spoke again.

“If you still want to get a life more longer ..... (If you still want to live longer ..... )”

Then the Son straightened his body and stepped out of his place with Garret following the Son.

The son spoke again in passing and sauntered leisurely, leaving the man the Son had called with the old man, who was Ramone.

***

“Now where are we going to?.....”

(Where are we now? ...... )

Garret asked Putra after they returned to the car that Putra had rented from the hotel where Putra and Putra were staying, and Putra was ready to drive the car out of the church area.

“Buy some wine (Buy some bottles of wine )” replied Putra while driving the car he drove it.

“Are you going to show yourself after youveal the betrayer? ..... (Are you going to show yourself after uncovering the traitor? ..... )”

Garrett asked again.

“We’ll see about it (See later )”

Garret grunts amusedly.

“You know what ... (You know ... ), Son?”

“What? ( What? ) ..”

“I’ve been know you for a quite long time but you still look mysterious sometimes.

(I've known you for a long time but sometimes you still look mysterious.... )

“Well, stick with me for more longer to understand me more over then... (Then stick to me longer to understand me more. )” babble Son.

Garret and Putra also chuckled together.

*****

Putra and Garret had now entered a village that was quite far from the city.

The village looks very quiet but quiet, and the houses along the road that Putra's car drove with Garret sitting beside him, quite far from each other.

The son seemed to have recognized every street he passed in the Netherlands.

“When the last time you visit this country? (When was the last time you visited this country? )...” asked Garret interrupted the trip while smoking her cigarette.

“Quite long (Long enough )” replied Putra, who was also driving while smoking cigarettes like Garret.

“And you still very know every part of this country ..... (And you still know for sure every part of the country ..... )” Garret said.

“I ever lived here, before I stick with Rery (I've lived here, before I was with Rery )” said Putra. “I practice every thing about self-defense here since I was a teenager... Th-- (I learned everything about self-defense here since I was a teenager.... Ad--)”

The son did not continue his sentence. Then there was a rude snort from the Son.

“What is it? (What's up? )”

“.........”

The son did not turn to Garret who was a little astonished and moved the steering to his left.

“Get out from the car and don’t look back (Exit the car and do not look back )” said Putra.

Garret doesn't know why Putra pulled over the car she was driving and stopped in the yard of a country house where they both are now.

But whatever it is, Garret will follow every utterance and direction of the Son, whose man has climbed the steps of a country house and knocked on its door.

‘Damned this guy, not only a sharp instinct he has. But his ear are so sharp too! (Surely this man, not only his instincts were sharp. But his ears are also very sharp! )’

Garret sat in amazement. Because he understood that the intention of the Putra pull over was to avoid passing by a car that soon did pass the road in front of a country house where Putra stopped the car and now Putra has spoken with the owner of the house after he knocked on the door.

Only, Garret did not hear the sound of the car engine before, but Putra seemed to know if there would be a vehicle that passed the road where they were.

The son who appeared to have finished talking to the owner of the house and said goodbye kindly, directly approached Garret who was standing behind the Son by showing a smile of hospitality to the owner of the house before he turned away with the Son.

Afterwards, Putra and Garret re-entered the car and continued on their way.

“Did you impeach the car that was passed by? .. (Do you suspect the car passed by? .. )” asked Garret.

“Kind of (That's how ).” replied the Son to Garret who again asked questions after the car he drove back down the road.

“Where are we going now?.. (Where are we now?. )” asked Garret.

“Travelling around a canal by a boat.. (Walking down the canal by boat.. )”

The son answered Garret without turning his head, because he was watching the road, then turned on the road that jutted into a forest.

“I thought we’re going to board a boat? ... (I thought we were going to take a boat? .. )” Garret said after Putra stopped the car he was driving in a very quiet forest and Putra put the car in a fairly hidden place.

“We are going to board a boat ( Indeed we will take a boat )” said Putra. “A whisper boat” connect Son.

Where not how far they walk, there is a small canal that if not traced deeper, the canal will not be seen.

Garret raised an eyebrow, because the place where the Son took her and so secret. Moreover, when he was on a small boat and the sound of the boat engine was very smooth, faint, almost inaudible.

Maybe that's why Putra calls it ‘a whisper boat’ – thought Garret.

“Now you don’t say any words until I allow you to (Now you don't talk until I let you )” said the Son to Garret who immediately nodded. And there was only silence around Son and Garret, until they came to another part of the forest and looked very quiet, like there was no life there.

“Come (Come )”

The son who had stopped the silent boat invited Garret to get off the boat.

But the Son had just set his foot on the forest ground,

“Stop”

A very slow baritone voice made Putra urung to step up.

“Steek je hand omhoog ( Raise your hand )”

The baritone's voice was heard again, along with the sound of a cocked weapon.

Garret, who had not yet gotten off the boat, was ready to dip her hand behind her coat to retrieve her weapon, which was a welcome gift from Ramone.

But urung, because the owner of the baritone voice that twice spoke it had already appeared quickly from behind the Son, and the tip of the gun held by the man was stuck in the head of the Son along with the threat sentence this time using English and aimed at Garret not to make suspicious movements, he said, if you do not want the bullet from the man's gun to penetrate the Son's head.
