The Passion of the Actor
Season 2 Chapter 44

Any means Raya used to hold Sidney for longer. Health reasons used the woman to tie Sidney next to her.

That night Sidney reoccupies her room after years of her abandonment. Nothing has changed, the room is still as it used to be, neat and clean. It is still as before, complete with his photo on the wall of the room and also on his study table.

Her clothes were still in the closet, it was all Raya who bought her, so that while staying at her house, Sidney did not need to transport her goods from the front.

"Excuse me, Non. I changed the sheets first," said bi Juminten.

"No need bi, this seems to be still clean, just replaced like," said Sidney rubbed the surface of his pillow.

"Clean the hell, Non, but what is not papa this former occupied den Paris. Fear not to sleep later."

"The paris? She slept here?"

Juminten nodded and began to change the bed sheets. Pantesan Sidney still smells the man's perfume. Why did he occupy his room?

"Yes, Non. Almost every night den Paris sleeps here, since he came home from London."

"Bi Jum, may I ask you a question? Is bi Inem still ahead?"

Juminten stopped his action for a moment. Facing Sidney and then nodding. Sidney wanted to continue with her question, however, there were doubts. But if not asked, he would be curious.

"What... Papa... What does that house have to live in there? Bi Jum have you seen his new wife?"

"I mean Non, Mr Sandi, his papa is non Sidney?"

Hearing the words papa, why did Sidney's heart hurt. Three years into his disappearance, is Sandi looking for him? Is he worried? When he left, he did not want to be found, but also his little heart hopes that after a long time, suddenly Sandi stood before him, apologizing and taking him home.

Three dark years, alone without anyone to back up.

Sidney nodded weakly. The blood flowing within his body made him unable to not acknowledge the man as his father.

"Know Bi Jum, Papa non has not lived there anymore. After non-Sidney leaves, two days later, Papa non comes along with a woman and a small boy, a boy. Had lived in a non house, but..."

"But what, Bi?" ask Sidney.

"Well, how do you say, aunt is afraid to be wrong."

"By the way, Bi. No papa, it's not."

"But not long after. The great master came to the house, angry with the non papa, and told the non papa with the woman and her child to go from there," said Bi Jum, satisfying Sidney's curiosity.

"Bi Jum said, Bi Inem is still there. If the house is empty, why would Inem still work in the house?"

"The great sir told me, Non. He said when he did not come home later, the house should always be clean and tidy. All things must be in place, as they used to be when non went."

Sidney's heart warms. Elrick looked at his mother's memories. Then on what basis could Elrick drive his father out of their home?

Bi Jum definitely did not know the reason. Just ask one person, then he will get the answer.

Almost an hour Sidney soaked in the bathtub by sprinkling essential oils into it. He wanted to relax for a moment. After that he intended not to go down, but bi Jum called him on Elrick's orders.

Sidney steps into Elrick's study. The man was waiting for her, whom he guessed wanted to talk to her about something important.

"Om call me?"

"Sit Sid."

"I'm the one who's sorry, Om. I didn't know that for a few days Oma was critical."

"Of course, let us reveal Oma, she is at peace with Him. I'm sure you'll come. If you don't arrive today, Bayu can end with Om!"

Sidney's eyeballs are breaking. A bayu? Mean Bayu who became the boss of the cafe owner where he worked?

"I mean Om, Mr Bayu, the boss I work for?"

Elrick smiled and nodded. "You don't think, right after successfully asking your aunt to keep your departure a secret, Om will just shut up? Since you left, your aunt has been crying, making Om take the initiative to look for you."

Sidney is still silent, looks enthusiastic waiting for the continuation of the story.

"Om not as naive as Paris, who searched your grandmother's house in Jogja. Om know you. You won't be able to go to your grandmother's house let alone your father's family who has disappointed you."

"So, Om set this all up? Even setting the robber who almost raped*Sa me?"

"Based on stupid girl. It's not that bad it scares you. The man who wanted to harm you was a bad man, but Om asked Bayu to follow you. So, since Om knew your position was in Bandung, Om immediately contacted Bayu, a former Om who used to work at the Om company, resigned because he wanted to open a business. Ask him to offer you a job."

Sidney was so unexpected during his three-year life, Elrick had a big hand behind the scenes.

"Worthy, Mr. Bayu often gave great tips, did not let me work hard, and could be comfortable college without fear of being fired for being hit by a shift. Is it all because of Om?" Sidney's tears are dripping down.

"You wouldn't think we'd forget you, would you? To be honest, Om let you go because Om realized you needed time to calm down. Your problems with Paris also need time, make you think more mature, where do you want to take your relationship? Plus your father's question. Forgive me, Om for driving him out with his wife and son who want to rule your house."

"How can Om drive them out while the house is in the name of... papa?"

"Your father's a bad man. During this time the company he managed had deteriorated, almost bankrupt and closed. Om invested in it, and made it in your name, which means 70 percent of you own a stake in your father's company. But it turns out that behind Om, he takes the company's funds, embezzling it for his own sake. Until the company's operations are disrupted. Om brought in an audit, and it proved that billions of rupiah were gone."

Sidney seemed flabbergasted to hear Elrick's words. It turns out that his father's behavior is not only depraved in naf*su but also a fraud and corruptor.

"Om wanted to keep your mother's memories in the house, and asked her to sign the sale of the house to Om, as payment for the embezzlement she had made. After that, Om moved the house in your name, and asked bi Inem to keep working there looking after and caring for the house."

"Does everyone know I'm in Bandung, Om?" Sidney wanted to know, for three years, whether the man was. Yes, Paris meant to go look for him or try to meet him.

"No. Anyone, no Om tell. If you mean Paris, Om doesn't want to interfere with your business. Om and aunty would love for you to marry Paris, but we will not impose our wishes. You will forever be part of this family, our daughter, married or unmarried to Paris."

"So, Om called you here, in addition to telling you about your father, also because he wanted to discuss other important matters."

For whatever sake, Sidney's tense. He's afraid that what Elrick wants to talk about is the problem with Paris. "Sidney, you know we all love you, right?"

Sidney just nodded. "Then come back to us."
