THE LIFE OF A MAN
PART 83'S
Happy reading ...
“Sorry Mr...” Marsih's mother came to the study with a nervous look on her face.
“Iya, what's wrong with Mother Marsih?” Ask the Son who realized the nervousness of Mother Marsih's face.
“That's Sir, there's a cop coming!”
“Police?” Ask the Son again.
Marsih's mother nodded quickly. "Yes, Sir"
“Let me meet them first Tuan”
The son replied with a nod to Mr. Abdul.
“It's fine if they want to meet the owner of this residence. I'll meet them” said Putra before Mr. Abdul went to see the police who came.
“Good Tuan”
Abdul then begs to go downstairs.
**
There were two men in police uniform when Putra visited the Villa's living room.
“Good morning”
The son greeted me kindly.
A man in uniform who seemed to be looking at – photos attached to the wall of the living room immediately gasped. And the one who was sitting on the sofa then immediately stood up when he saw the Son coming.
“Good morning Mr..”
“Putra” Sahut Putra while welcoming the helping hand of a man in uniform who seems to have a rank that knows what.
Only limited to the assessment of the Son, when viewed from his appearance and the uniform worn there seems to be little difference with the other officer.
“I Hasan. Nice to meet you” said the officer who was looking at – see the photo. The son nodded once and welcomed the hand of the only officer who only shook the hand of the Son without introducing himself.
The son let them both sit.
***
“So, may I help you?” The son asked after he also sat himself on a single sofa, where the two policemen watched the Son sitting elegantly in front of them.
“Sorry if our arrival this morning interferes with your comfort Mr. Putra” replied the officer who introduced himself as Hasan earlier.
“No problem”
“But in advance, sorry to ask this.” Hasan. “What are you the owner of this Villa?”
“It can be said like that” Sahut Putra and the officer named Hasan was a mangosteen –, but glanced at the painting of self-picture of Rery, Madelaine and Anthony. “That's my brother and his family” said the Son who realized that the officer named Hasan was glancing at the painting.
“Huumm..”
“But if you want to meet him, you have to fly to heaven first”
“Hah?.” Hasan gasped a little.
“My brother has passed away”
“Oh sorry, sorry Mr. ..”
“No problem”
The son smiled thinly.
“We are sorry.” Hasan and the other officer nodded their heads.
“Thank you” Sahut Putra.
“Good Mr. Son, just go ahead then.” Hasan. “Our arrival can be said as a process of inquiry ..”
“About?” Ask the Son with his calm demeanor.
“Do you know Mr Baskoro?” Hasan asked as one other officer took out a notebook.
“Not” Reply Son. “My family and I haven't lived here long, so we don't know anyone” Putra continued.
Hasan mangosteen – mangosteen.
“If you may know, why ask me this?”
“Ah is related to the fire that hit the house of the person I mentioned his name Tuan”
“Hemm” Son throats low.
“Did you hear a noise or something suspicious last night?”
“Where did you enter earlier?”
“Sorry?, what?.” Hasan frowned.
“Which direction you are in here?” Ask the Son again.
“From the front gate” replied Hasan and Putra slightly pulling the corner of his lips.
“Then you know how far away the entrance is in our front yard with this building”
“Ah.”
“So it feels like what is happening on the streets out there, we who are inside here will not hear anything”
“Ah Yes Sir. True too” Hasan chuckles crisply.
‘Stupido!’
Son ingrained.
“If I may know, what really happened?”
“As I said earlier, there was a fire at the Villa belonging to one of the respected ones here. Mr. Baskoro, as I said earlier” Hasan replied.
“Then?” Ask Son.
“We are investigating whether the fire was purely due to negligence from inside the house, or someone”
“........”
“Slightly difficult, because the Villa was burned out without rest .. What worries us is that it looks like we found a body inside the Villa that has been difficult to recognize, even destroyed ..”
The son listened to Hasan who was speaking at length.
“So in anticipation, fearing that some crime would start to be in this neighborhood, we went to every house around here. Especially Villa – Large villas like this Mr Putra”
“Heem.”
“So sorry if it slightly interferes with your current comfort”
“But at least I can get to know more people – people who live in the environment where I am responsible in it”
Putra mangosteen – mangosteen only.
“I hope you are not disturbed by our arrival ini” Hasan said.
“Not at all”
“Alright Mr. Son, I think that's it. We'll excuse you. Nice to meet you, sir. If there's something, you might be able to find me.”
“Something, in the sense?” Sambar Putra who seemed to see a little gap from the officer named Hasan who then pulled the corner of his lips.
“Something I mean in terms of security Sir. Whatever it is. Coincidentally I was also newly placed in this area, so I want to be on good terms with those who live here”
“Hem, maybe we can talk about ‘connected good’?. Because incidentally, as a person who has not lived here for a long time, I need ‘relation’”
The son smiled meaningfully while looking fixedly at Hasan.
“How about Mr Hasan?” Putra asked, but Hasan did not answer immediately and he briefly looked at each other with the one officer who was with him. “Do you want to be a relationship for me and my family?”
The son who did not like to speak – stale just spoke directly to the point. However, the advantages in reading the nature of people, the Son is very useful for the realization of all the goals that he and his brothers have.
And the Son will not waste time, if he has seen an opportunity.
“Good ..” Sahutan Hasan.

“So what you offered him?.. (So what are you offering her? )”
It was Addison who asked, after the two officers the Son met had left their residence.
Addison, who was about to leave with Bruna, postponed his departure because he heard from Mr. Abdul that there were police coming.
“Standard thing's.. (Standard thing ) .. A mutualism symbiosis relation (Traditional relationship )”
“He’s a dirty officer? (Is he a dirty officer? )” Ask Addison again who has sat with the Son, following Garret and Damian.
While Bruna accompanied Anthony who was still enthusiastic in his new room.
“Haven’t know yet, I will ask Danny or Arthur to inquire about him further more later .. (Not yet to know for sure, I will ask Danny or Arthur to investigate more about him later ).” Answer Son.
“Heeem.” Three people who are with Putra then mangosteen – mangosteen.
“The most important is, we need to make an ‘acquaitance’ from many societies, don’ we?”
“(What matters now is, we need ‘to meet’ with various circles, don't you think? )”
“Sure we are! (Of course! )” The words of Addison, Garret and Damian together with the same meaningful smile as the current Son, who already has a list of plans in his handsome brain, he said, for everything he would do up front.
And the four men who are with the Son, always support all the decisions that the man takes and does, even though the Son did not speak first with them before, at the time of – certain moment, where the Son,
often improvise.
But Bruna, Addison, Garret and Damian know very well that a Son is a thoughtful person even though he sometimes makes decisions quickly.
The conversation of the five people stopped because Bruna came with Anthony who had been satisfied beberes in his new room.
Smiles Son, Addison, Garret and Damian also expands to see Anthony who comes to them with a happy face.
“Papa! Are you going to make the paint in my room looks like a sky?? .. (Did Papa make the paint in my room like the sky??.. )”
“If my Boss wants it, then I will do it! (If my boss wants it, then I will! )” Babe Son who made Anthony smile widely then raised his hand.
"Complete with the bright cloud and sun? (Complete with bright clouds and sun too? )"
"Sure! (Of course! )"
“Yeaayy!..” Anthony cheered happily.
‘It feel kind long time I haven’t seen this cheerful face of Anth.’
‘(It seems like it's been a long time since I've seen a cheerful Anth face like this .. )’
Son ingrained.
‘So lucky that Anth meet Girl.. (Lucky Anth met the Girl.. ) Ah! Girls!. I suddenly miss her (I arrived – arrived miss her )’
The son smiled faintly, then he glanced at the watch on his wrist.
‘Girl must be already arranged at Hospital right now (Girl must have arrived at Hospital by this time )’
The son was still awake, when Addison and Bruna also said goodbye to go and the Son simply replied with a nod.
‘I’m going to call her then (I'll contact her then ). But.. ( But.. )’
The son glanced at Anthony who was being invited to a joke by Garret and Damian.
‘No, I should not tell Anth that I want to make a call to Girl, or that little guy will conquer the conversation and make me lose my chance to talk with her, can’t let that happens again .’
‘(No, I better not tell Anth if I want to contact Girl, or that little guy will master the conversation and make me miss the opportunity to talk to Girl, she said, I can't let that happen again ) ..’
There is a little horn that appears on the Son's head.
‘Heemm..’ The son grinned in the heart. “Anth!” Call Son.
“Yes Papa?” Anthony Sahut.
“Why don’t you go for a ride on horse with Dad Dami and Dad Garret? ..”
“(Why don't you go around riding a horse with Dad Dami and Dad Garret?.. )”
Anthony immediately nodded enthusiastically as Putra widened his smile.
“You’re not coming Papa? (Papa's not coming? )” Ask Anthony.
“I’ll catch you up guys sooner, I have a small thing to do before .”
“(I'll catch up as soon as possible, there's a little thing I'll do first ) ..”
“Okay Papa!”
‘Hehehe ..’ There was a sly grin in Papa Putra's heart. ‘Sorry Anth ( Sorry yes Anth )’
There's a bit of guilt in Papa Putra's heart actually.
But since Papa Putra is afraid of being sabotaged again to let go of Missing Girl, well sorry Papa Putra was forced to contact Girl outside the knowledge of Anthony.
‘But I promise I will tell Girl to call and talk to you after she finish working. I do, I will Anth! (But take it easy, I promise I'll ask Girl to call and talk to you after she finishes work. Sure is! Trust Anth! )’
Determined the Papa.
